The openness of China's agricultural machinery market has been high. As early as a few years ago, many global agricultural giants have entered the Chinese market. However, in such a fully competitive market, Yituo is still the first in the country.
Asked about the reason, Zhao Yushui blurted out: 'We have always had deep feelings for the three rural areas, the heart of the three rural areas, never give up. Just because of persistence, we can develop and embark on an independent and innovative road to agricultural mechanization.
In the past 10 years, Zhao Yishui has been thinking about a problem. As a leader in the industry, what can be done for the country's construction? The 'Village Revitalization Strategy' proposed by the 19th National Congress, Let him have a new answer - not forgetting the initial heart, keeping in mind the mission, always serving the three rural areas.
In July, the Shanghai Stock Exchange reporter saw Zhao Yushui again in Luoyang, Henan. He excitedly talked with reporters about the latest instructions of the party and state leaders on the rural revitalization strategy. 'The proposal of the rural revitalization strategy coincides with the moment, and one will have a lot to do. There must be something to do. 'For the self-confident 'one dragged', the past 63 years can be done, the next 63 years will be better.
By competing with foreign giants, Yitu has already practiced a unique skill--the Dongfanghong LF2204 wheeled tractor with the annual award, the pioneering agricultural intelligent platform, the unmanned agricultural machinery standard system......
'At that time, Premier Zhou Enlai requested that the first product to be produced, the first talent in China, and the first performance in China, this is our mission, we will continue to go. 'Zhao Yushui said.
The heart of the three farmers does not forget the initial heart
At the gate of Yituo's factory, there is a Dongfanghong Farming Museum, which records the history of the development of Chinese agricultural machinery after the founding of New China. The story of Yituo and Dongfanghong brand is particularly conspicuous.
As one of the 156 key construction projects in the country's '1st Five-Year' period, on October 1, 1955, the First Tractor Manufacturing Plant was established in Luoyang, and was completed and put into operation on November 1, 1959. Yituo created the history of new China's agriculture. The first ones have strongly supported the development of agriculture. In the 1980s, the household contract responsibility system began to be gradually implemented throughout the country. According to the new changes in market demand, Dongfanghong’s small four-wheels, which have been selling for many years, were launched. 'Tractor.
Today, the oriental red tractor wearing the 'Oriental Red' color still travels all over the country every day.
The brilliant journey of '63 years is far from being so easy. In the past, the 'small four-wheel' was that we were under pressure. After the implementation of the household contract responsibility system in the countryside, the large tractors produced in the past could not meet the small-scale operation of farmers. We don't wait to wait and see, open the market with a small four-wheel. Since then, for various reasons, I have faced many new situations and new problems, but we have all come over and are getting better.
Zhao Yushui said that before the reform and opening up, almost every province had a tractor factory. Today, these tractor factories have long since disappeared, but one is a wind and clouds.
Summarize the reasons, 'Do not forget the initial heart, remember the mission.' Zhao Yushui blurted out, 'We always have deep feelings for the three rural areas, the heart of the three rural areas, never give up. Just because of persistence, can develop, and embark on an independent innovation of agricultural mechanization Road. '
In the drag-and-drop assembly shop, the numbers on the electronic display that reflect the assembly progress of the products in real time are constantly beating. One tractor is slowly moving on the assembly line, and the operator carries out the established procedures in an orderly and orderly manner. The factory manager told the reporters that these tractors All have completely independent intellectual property rights, and they are all 'one forge'.
The top beam of Chinese agricultural machinery
Looking through the development history of Chinese tractors, there is a problem that can't be circumvented. Why did you pass a Jiazi, and the first one is still the first in China?
Unlike the auto industry's many years of access policy, the agricultural machinery market, including tractors, has been open to foreign investment. As early as a few years ago, many global agricultural machinery giants have entered the Chinese market, and the Chinese agricultural machinery market is already fully competitive. market.
For a farmer, which brand of agricultural machinery may not be important, but if a country's land runs on agricultural machinery of foreign brands, it will be related to the safety of the entire agriculture.
Some people in the industry gave an example to reporters. After the development of a 220-horsepower tractor, the same type of foreign tractors fell directly from 1.3 million yuan to more than 800,000 yuan. The most beneficial benefit is of course Chinese farmers.
At the beginning of its establishment in 1955, 'One towed people' has a deep sense of responsibility and honor, and it is hard to support the Chinese brand in the agricultural machinery industry.
At present, Yituo has indeed done it. In terms of independent innovation capability and manufacturing technology upgrade, the company has successfully developed intelligent products such as self-driving tractors, remote-controlled orchard tractors, and 400-horsepower continuously variable-speed tractors to fill a number of domestic technologies. Blank. 'The decades of industrial disparity cannot be crossed in one step, but we are working hard to get closer.' Zhao said.
Put a 'smart brain' on the agricultural machine
The Central Rural Work Conference held at the end of December 2017 proposed a 20-word general requirement for the rural revitalization strategy, that is, according to the general requirements of industrial prosperity, ecological livability, rural civilization, effective governance, and affluent life, making agriculture a leading industry. Let the peasants become attractive occupations, and let the countryside become a beautiful home for living and working.
Zhao Yushui believes that the 20-word general requirement also puts forward higher requirements for the development of agricultural machinery. Agricultural machinery should be intelligent, networked and unmanned as soon as possible, so as to improve the production efficiency of agriculture and achieve the 20-word overall goal.
It is reported that Yituo has begun to add smart devices such as sensors and chips to its own products, and transmits the resulting data to the back-end cloud platform for big data processing and analysis.
'The first step can realize the early warning of agricultural machinery failure, remote maintenance, reduce the equipment failure rate; the second step is to analyze the soil nutrient and humidity, and adjust the fertilization according to local conditions; the third step is to cooperate with big data and satellite positioning. , to achieve the unmanned agricultural machinery, intelligent. 'One drag of R & D personnel told reporters.
In fact, seemingly remote technologies such as driverless have been applied to a product.
In February of this year, Henan Intelligent Agriculture Machinery Innovation Center, which was jointly led by Yituo Group and jointly established by a number of scientific research institutions, was established in Luoyang. Four academicians were hired as members of the expert committee to drive automatic driving of agricultural machinery and large data collection of agricultural machinery. Research and development of new energy agricultural machinery and equipment.
At the end of June, the seminar on the standard system of autonomous driving and unmanned agricultural machinery was held in Luoyang. In terms of big data, Yituo is working with the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Tsinghua University to set up an innovation center.
In the face of innovation, Yituo also has the ambition of 'industry boss'. 'We hope to introduce competitors, upstream and downstream partners into the innovation platform, and everyone will make the wisdom brain of Chinese agriculture together.' Zhao Yushui said.
