The doves bring new medal to the decorated model workers. The man holds a plow and a book on production technology (生產技術l), the woman a rolled up sheet of paper and a pesticide sprayer with the character 奖 (award, prize). The children on the left hold a poster with a tractor and a pennant with the characters 光荣 (glory), the children on the right a poster with an airplane spraying pesticide and a flower-shaped award also with the characters 光荣 (glory). The posters represent the future: thanks to collectivization, plows will be replaced by tractors and sprayers by airplanes.
