In June, during the busy season of 'Sanxia', during the busy period in Jing Chutian, the farmers who saw their labors were replaced by a roaring agricultural machinery.
From planting to harvesting, from grain and oil to vegetables and fruits, the whole process of agricultural production 'machine-for-person' revolution accelerated, and the era of traditional agriculture facing loess backsliding gradually drifted away.
Under the scorching sun, Hubei Daily's all-media reporter went deep into the field and felt the profound changes brought about by the 'machine substitution' to traditional agriculture.
'Machine Substitution', 700,000 'Iron Cattle' rush to grab
In the past month, Yi Qinglin, the farmer of the Xinda Cooperative in Zhijiang City, became a busy man. He drove the 'Iron' every day and traveled through the fields to farm and harvest farmers.
Since May, 16.52 million mu of rape, 16.81 million mu of wheat and other summer crops have gradually matured in our province, and more than 2000 million mu of medium-season rice and other summer crops will soon be planted. However, in the end, many of our provinces encountered 3. Even rainy weather brings serious challenges to the summer harvest.
Grab the sunny day, fight the rainy weather, race against time, keep the pellets in the warehouse, and accelerate the pace of 'machine-for-people' in our province—there is a rotary cultivator in farming fields, a cultivator, a harvester in harvest, a harvester in harvest, a dryer in drying, In every aspect of the summer harvest and summer planting, the agricultural machinery has demonstrated its capabilities.
Under normal circumstances, one person and one harvester can complete 3 to 5 mu in one hour, which is 30 times more efficient than manual harvesting. ' The Cinda Cooperative, where Yi Qinglin is located, provides farming, sub-cultivation, escrow, and collection. , Unified prevention and control, unified formula fertilization and other services, radiating an area of more than 30,000 acres.
In the province, agricultural social service organizations like Cinda flourished, with more than 7,800 employees and 120,000 employees. They took on more than half of the province’s agricultural machinery operations. The increasingly sound socialized service system for agricultural machinery, Let the farm machinery go into more farmers' homes.
During the busy farming season, the number of service providers is large, and the demand for farmers is urgent. How can the information be effectively linked? The smart agricultural information service platform emerged at the historic moment. The farm hand only needs to open the mobile phone equipped with the APP, where there are job requirements and what machinery is needed at a glance.
During this year's “Three Summers” period, the province issued more than 1 million cross-district operation information, received more than 3,000 machines for cross-regional harvesting in Henan, Anhui, Jiangsu and other provinces, organized combine harvesters, grain dryers, transplanters, and ploughs. Nearly 700,000 sets of various types of agricultural machinery, such as the whole machine, basically meet the needs of the province's summer harvest.
Machines replaced manpower and grabbed agricultural time, improving efficiency. According to the data provided by the Provincial Department of Agriculture, it is expected that before June 10, rape and wheat harvesting in the whole province will be completed, the wheat recovery rate will reach 95.5%, and the yield of rapeseed and medium rice crops will be improved. Machine insertion (sowing) rate exceeds 50%, all will hit a record high.
Modern agricultural machinery is setting off a new 'agricultural revolution'
Transplanter, harvester, unmanned plant protection machine, all kinds of small and medium-sized tractors...... In the Jianli Xinghua Agricultural Machinery Professional Cooperative, nearly 100 agricultural machines are arranged neatly, as if waiting for an inspection of the soldiers square array.
'Going to the earth, these agricultural machinery can do anything.' Xia Weihua, head of the cooperative, said with pride. The Hubei Daily full media reporter saw on the spot that the unmanned plant protection machine flew up to 10 meters high and sprayed pesticides. Tian; multi-functional crawler cultivator under the field, turned up layers of soil, deep, shallow rotary plough free control.
For centuries traditional agriculture has followed the practice of manual labor, transplanting rice seedlings, planting rice fields, and harvesting the 'three bends'. This was a true portrayal of farmers' hard work. Today, technology, intelligence, and intensive agricultural machinery are changing. This situation.
According to the provincial Bureau of Agricultural Machinery, the total mechanization level of the eight main crops in the province has reached 68.12%, which is 2.2% higher than that of the country. Agricultural production has entered a new era of mainly mechanical operations.
Machinery 'head', easier farming. After sixty years of Jianli peasant Zuo Tiesheng, before the whole family's labor force can only plant 3 acres of land. Now he has contracted 30 acres of land in a breath, cultivating, planting, harvesting, and delivery of agricultural machinery. Zuo Tiesheng transformed from 'Tian Ku Li' and became 'Field boss'.
Farming large households, cooperatives, family farms and other new types of agricultural business entities rise, and the demand for new and practical agricultural machinery is even more prosperous. Farmers can enjoy more than 30% policy subsidies when they purchase agricultural machinery and equipment, and under the incentive of purchase subsidy policy, 'purchase fever' According to statistics, the first five months of this year, the province's new transplanter nearly 2,000 Taiwan.
The total volume is increasing, and the structure is also being optimized. Every autumn harvest season, 163 sets of deep loosening machines equipped with Beidou satellite positioning are applied to the fields one after another. The farmer is sitting idle in the cab without steering the steering wheel, and the agricultural machinery is automatically ploughed. whole.
The extensive application of the BeiDou satellite navigation technology on agricultural machinery has enabled large-scale and precise operations to be no longer distant. At present, the province has installed 3,537 sets of Beidou monitoring terminal agricultural machinery, and the operating efficiency has increased by more than 50%, and the crop output has increased by 5%.
With the popularization of technologies such as precision navigation, artificial intelligence, and big data, the level of technology, intelligence, and intensification of agricultural machinery will continue to increase. A new 'agricultural revolution' has arrived!
Fill up the short board and accelerate the 'machine substitution'
After years of hard work, the development of agricultural mechanization in Hubei Province has made considerable progress. However, there are still problems of imbalance between the regions and between crops, especially the hilly and mountainous regions that account for more than half of the province's area. The level of agricultural mechanization is only 41.2% is a prominent short board that restricts the level of agricultural mechanization in the province.
In each tea-picking season, Fu Zhongbo, director of the Suizhou Specialty Tea Cooperative, began to worry that 'one or two pounds of famous fresh leaves must be used for one person to spend one day'. As manual tea-picking, the cost of manual tea making is high, the It has been difficult to improve efficiency.
In hilly and mountainous regions, land is fragmented, and per capita arable land is small. Many large-scale agricultural machinery are difficult to exert their feet, and the use of tea, fruit trees, potato and other economic crops is slow.
How to make up for the short board? Hubei Province will focus on 'weak links' and seek breakthroughs in terms of topography, production, and demand.
Earlier this year, the province issued and issued the Opinions on Developing Agricultural Mechanization to Boost Rural Revitalization, focusing on upgrading key crops, key links, and agricultural machinery operations in weak regions, accelerating the pace of 'machine-for-work'. At the same time, set targets: Strive to In 2020, the comprehensive mechanization rate of crop cultivation in the province will reach over 70%.
The moderate scale of land is the basis of agricultural mechanization. The provincial director of Agricultural Machinery Liu Changhua stated that the province will implement mechanized cross-country projects in hilly and mountainous regions, integrate and utilize project funds for high-standard farmland development, comprehensive agricultural development, etc., conduct land preparation in Pingtian, and construct machine farms. , Open the machine's 'last mile' into the field.
Hubei Province is a large agricultural province and a strong province for scientific research. However, the strength of agricultural machinery manufacturing enterprises is generally not strong. Potatoes, peanuts, medicinal materials and other special machinery and equipment are basically imported from other provinces.
If workers want to do good things, they must first sharpen their tools. Liu Changhua said that the next step will be to formulate supportive policies and encourage local agricultural machinery manufacturers to introduce tools with excellent R&D performance and suitability to solve the 'inorganic availability' problem in hilly areas.
