China News Service, Taizhou, November 12th (Fan Yubin and Wang Jingshen thinking) The harvester shuttles back and forth in the field, the tractor carries the ripper to quickly plow the land, and the drone flies to sow seeds in the field...The autumn is high and the air is high, the rice waves are rolling, now The land of Zhejiang is a good season for autumn harvest.

  Abandoning manual labor and turning to mechanized production, in this year’s harvest season, more and more farmers across Zhejiang, a demonstration province of agricultural "machine substitution" in the country, have used "machine substitution" to take advantage of traditional agricultural mechanization and digital transformation. Realize increased production, efficiency and income.

Mechanized service "one-stop" freeing farmers "one hand"

  In a paddy field near the Xiaopu Bamboo Industrial Zone in Yuhuan, Taizhou, two harvesters are running at full power and rushing back and forth in the paddy field. The cabin is filled with grains in a short time. As the grain truck is transported back and forth, farmer Ye Xiang It ended the last harvest of late rice this year.

  In another day, the new batch of rice can be shipped out.

"Without the help of big machines, how could our work efficiency be so efficient." Ye Xiang once said.

  Ye Xiang has been engaged in grain planting for more than 10 years. He said, “In the 1990s, I had to hire a few small workers, who were responsible for plowing, planting, and fertilizing. Less than half an acre of land was received." In recent years, labor costs have become higher and higher. In order to save this cost, he decided to cooperate with Yuhuan Yongfen Agricultural Machinery Professional Service Cooperative.

  "At that time, the labor cost was 200 yuan per person per day, while renting a machine was only 100 yuan a day." With the help of professional machinery, Ye Xiang's contracted grain planting area increased from nearly 100 acres to 230 acres throughout the year. He planted rice, wheat and other crops in turn, and the annual output value of rice alone reached more than 230,000 jin, and his pockets became more and more "bulging."

  According to Lin Yongfen, the head of the Yuhuan Yongfen Agricultural Machinery Professional Service Cooperative, since the cooperative was registered in July 2009, it has been providing farmers with full mechanized operations such as rice, sweet potato, rape, wheat and other grain and oil crops, including plowing, sowing, harvesting, and plant protection. service.

  Lin Yongfen still remembers the first time she started a business. She bought a second-hand tractor on the market with more than 50,000 yuan and rented a harvester from the then Agriculture Bureau. "The money for the machine was spent on the family’s Most of the savings, but I think this money must be spent." Lin Yongfen firmly believes that agricultural mechanization will inevitably replace manual operations.

  Sure enough, all the farmers who have tasted the "sweetness" have become Lin Yongfen's repeat customers, and more and more farmers trust and rely on these big machines that can "spin".

Digital agriculture "one piece of net" paves farmers "well-off road"

  Air temperature: 22.4℃, air humidity: 73.4%, wind speed 1.2m/s, northwest wind... At the gate of Baiyun Fruit and Vegetable Cooperative, the electronic screen of the "Outdoor Weather Station Collection System" displays the latest relevant data.

  Gao Binbin, the head of the Baiyun Fruit and Vegetable Cooperative, demonstrated the operation on the spot: By manipulating the buttons on the screen and clicking the fertilization or irrigation bar, 12 acres of crops can be fertilized and watered at the same time.

Opening the mobile phone software can also monitor the growth of fruits and fruit trees in the orchard in real time, which is equivalent to setting up a smart agriculture control room in the orchard.

  "With this set of equipment, our fertilization and watering will be more scientific and precise, and the botanicals we planted will be more quality and guaranteed." Gao Binbin said that the digital management of the orchard will gradually be realized.

  Shangyu District of Shaoxing City has the advantages of mountains and seas as well as a land of fish and rice. As the main grain producing county and the main double-cropping rice planting area in Zhejiang Province, Shangyu takes the lead in the reform of food safety production, agricultural mechanization, and "two systems of fertilizer and medicine.

  In the Sanfeng Se-enriched Selenium Grain and Oil Cooperative in Shangyu District, trucks and trucks of rice that have just been harvested from the rice fields are being weighed, unloaded, and sent to the dryer in an orderly manner.

Since the introduction of agricultural mechanization equipment, farmers have bid farewell to planting seedlings, cultivating and cutting crops, saving time, effort and efficiency.

"One machine can complete the work that could only be done by more than 50 people in the past." said Li Gaozhong, the head of the Sanrich Selenium Grain and Oil Cooperative.

  In order to speed up the pace of agricultural "machine substitution", Shangyu District has tilted the national agricultural machinery purchase subsidy funds to large rice growers, large agricultural machinery operators, and agricultural machinery service organizations to guide farmers to purchase agricultural machinery.

The agricultural machinery department has also established a technical service team for the entire mechanization of rice production to implement tracking services for operating machinery, supervise and guide the operators to maintain, debug and overhaul various agricultural machinery and equipment.

  When rice waves are rolling, Wenling is a traditional agricultural city and one of the key grain producing areas in Zhejiang Province. In recent years, the city has deeply promoted agricultural mechanization and integrated scientific and technological forces to build smart agriculture.

  Open the mobile phone software, click the fertilization or irrigation function, after confirming the operation, you can complete the fertilization or watering of 230 acres of crops in the same time.

Walking into the greenhouse of the Wenling Jiyuan Fruit and Vegetable Cooperative, one of the Wenling "Digital Agriculture" demonstration parks, a set of intelligent water and fertilizer irrigation equipment is very eye-catching.

  "This equipment application covers an area of ​​1,800 acres, making fertilization and watering more scientific and precise, and the quality of the melons and fruits grown is more guaranteed." said Xin Hongquan, head of Wenling Jiyuan Fruit and Vegetable Cooperative.

  From "machine substitution" to "digital agriculture", Zhejiang's new momentum for improving the quality and efficiency of agriculture has been continuously released.

In order to strengthen the agricultural machinery purchase subsidy policy, the Zhejiang Provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs and the Zhejiang Provincial Department of Finance recently jointly issued a document to further improve the implementation of the agricultural machinery purchase subsidy policy.

After the adjustment, the scope of the province’s subsidized machinery and tools is divided into 14 categories, 36 subcategories, and 99 items. The implementation of subsidy policies for the purchase of agricultural machinery has been optimized, and policy supervision and management has been strengthened.
