"Intelligent Agricultural Machinery" gives more confidence in farming. Combine Harvesters | Operation | Agricultural Machinery
On this vast land
Guangming Daily reporter Chen Chen
The reporter learned from the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs that as of June 20th, 9 provinces including Sichuan, Hubei, Henan, Anhui, Jiangsu, Hebei, Shandong, Shaanxi, and Shanxi have harvested 301 million mu of winter wheat, with a harvest progress of 99%. The large-scale machine harvest in the Yellow, Huai, and Hai regions has basically ended. The progress is faster than in previous years!
This achievement is related to the strong promotion of "intelligent agricultural machinery": during this year's "Three Summers" period, more than 600000 combine harvesters, more than 800000 agricultural machinery operators, and more than 6100 emergency operation service teams of agricultural machinery fought tirelessly on the front line of wheat harvesting, with mechanized harvesting accounting for over 99%.
Recently, many places in Huairou, Daxing, and Changping in Beijing have started summer harvest operations. Harvesters were playing a joyful and enthusiastic harvest symphony, shuttling back and forth in the fragrant waves of wheat, swallowing rows of yellowed wheat and spitting out plump grains in an instant. This year, Beijing invested more than 10000 sets of various agricultural machinery and completed the summer harvest and planting task within half a month.
"When the wheat is ripe for a while, the value lies in competing." Summer harvest emphasizes the word "competing". Only by racing against time and weather, can we avoid unfavorable factors such as "ripe seeds falling" and "rotten rain", and also turn hard work into joy of harvest.
Similarly, spring competes for day and summer competes for time, and the key to summer planting is also to "compete"!
Snatching, by what? We also have to rely on intelligent agricultural machinery!
Nowadays, the "family" of intelligent agricultural machinery is constantly expanding, showcasing its "technological style". Various large equipment and small and sophisticated techniques have their own unique skills and moves, and they can also play dazzling "combination punches", giving farmers more magic weapons and confidence to "grab"!
"The continuous harvesting and planting of over 3000 acres of land only takes about 7 days. In the past, it would have taken at least a month! Both harvesters and seeders are equipped with BeiDou navigation systems, which input maps into mobile phones, plan routes, and agricultural machinery can operate accurately according to the planned path without having to master the steering wheel! Walking and turning are not ambiguous at all!" Shan Wanmin, the director of the Wanmin Agricultural Service Center in Shanying Village, Jiaxiang County, Shandong Province, told reporters that after the small and chaotic "palm fields" were transformed into large fields, large machinery has a "place to use", and harvesting is more efficient and fast. "More and more farmers come, they can be trusted as' hands off shopkeepers'."
Speaking of the feeling of this year's summer harvest and summer planting, Zhao Junmin, the chairman of the San Nong Agricultural Machinery Farmers Professional Cooperative in Guantao County, Hebei Province, blurted out, "Intelligent!"
"We have installed sensors on nearly a hundred agricultural machinery in the cooperative, integrating information such as operation trajectory, area statistics, and operation quality analysis into a smart management platform through the Internet of Things, achieving full digital intelligent management!" Zhao Junmin told reporters, "These intelligent machinery are collected quickly and broadcast accurately. Now, farming is time-saving, labor-saving, and worry free!"
The reporter learned in an interview that during this year's "Three Summers" period, Hebei Province organized and dispatched 2 million agricultural machinery such as wheat combine harvesters, tractors, corn seeders, and straw returning machines. The intelligent agricultural machinery system was promoted and used in more than 30 fully mechanized demonstration counties and 2000 agricultural machinery cooperatives, which can transmit the operating location, mu, and yield in real-time to the Internet of Things platform, achieving simultaneous harvesting and yield testing.
On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, in the field of Fengdeng Grain Planting Family Farm in Xinzhuang Village, Luji Town, Siyang County, Jiangsu Province, two intelligent transplanters were transplanting rice back and forth. "Three beans, six wheat, and one rapeseed. I started planting corn and soybeans in mid June. In order to seize time, I started harvesting, stubble removal, soil preparation, fertilization, and sowing at the same time. Laser soil preparation machines, trenching machines, fertilizer spreaders, and seeders all joined forces, and in less than a week, 1200 acres were all completed. You see, all the seedlings have emerged now. Currently, I have planted 15600 acres of rice, and the remaining 2300 acres can be planted in about two days!" Farmer Fang Fei sighed to the reporter, "A 'iron cow' competes with ten water buffaloes. My family's fast harvest is all thanks to these modern farmers." Machine! "
Siyang, where Fang Fei is located, is a demonstration county for the full mechanization of major crop production in China. "This summer, we have invested 5200 units of tractors, straw returning machines, seeders, land levelers, fertilizer spreaders, and trenching machines. By June 22nd, about 70% of the county's rice planting and planting has been completed, and over 80% of dry crops such as corn and soybeans have been sown." Wang Shoujun, the person in charge of the Agriculture and Rural Bureau of Siyang County, introduced, "Nowadays, agricultural machinery is becoming more and more 'smart and efficient', making agricultural production easier, more accurate, and efficient!"
"In many places, wheat is harvested in the morning and corn is planted in the afternoon. Currently, the progress of summer sowing is faster than the same period last year, achieving suitable soil moisture and sowing at the right time." According to the person in charge of the relevant department of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, on June 20th, the agricultural situation dispatch showed that 72.3% of the country's summer grain has been sown. 90.1% of summer corn has been sown, 76.9% of summer soybeans have been sown, and 80.2% of medium rice has been sown. Summer broadcasting in Henan and Shaanxi has basically ended, with nearly 90% in Anhui and Shandong, 80% in Hebei, and 70% in Jiangsu.
The summer harvest is coming to an end, and summer planting and stubble pressing are advancing. The intelligent rice transplanter walked by, and sturdy seedlings stretched out in the rice fields in the wind, as if proudly declaring: Look, I am the hope for the next season!
