The imported carrot harvester is stunningly unveiled!

At the 2018 China International Agricultural Machinery Exhibition, a carrot harvester from Simon, France, debuted for the first time. According to reports, a few hundred acres of carrots, this machine can be harvested in an hour.

As a nutritious and healthy vegetable, carrot is an important economic crop in China. The data show that China's carrot planting area accounts for about 40% of the world's total carrot planting area, and the total output accounts for more than 33%. It is the world's largest carrot production. Carrots are labor-intensive cultivated crops, with strong seasonal production, more labor, manual labor intensity, and low operational efficiency. With the further development of agricultural modernization, it is an inevitable trend to realize carrot mechanized production.

At the press conference of the International Agricultural Machinery Equipment and New Technology Summit Forum and the Imported Agricultural Machinery Exhibition held on October 27th, Liu Xian, president of the China Agricultural Mechanization Association, also used carrot harvesting machinery as an example to illustrate the need for agricultural machinery high-tech products in China's agricultural development. Support.

Liu Xian said: 'I personally researched a cooperative. The cooperative planted 4,000 acres of carrots, but there are very few carrot harvesting machines in China. Some equipments are not used. The cooperatives imported 3 products, each of which has a capacity of 400,000 yuan. However, if the cooperative needs to solve the operation problem, it needs 10 sets of equipment. Due to its own financial shortage, it has not achieved operational results. If it can increase the subsidy through imported products, it can not only solve the domestic agricultural production problems, but also promote domestic agricultural machinery and equipment technology. Innovation can be described as one stone."
