In early spring, the land of Sanxiang is lively, loosening the soil, planting seeds, raising seedlings, and preparing for spring ploughing on the vast fields.
In Shiziling Village, Chating Town, Wangcheng District, Changsha City, workers are busy constructing, and a factory-like seedling raising greenhouse covering an area of 10,000 mu has taken shape.
"Thousands of acres of rice seedlings can be raised every season without manual operation. Light, temperature and moisture are controlled intelligently." Tan Xinlong, chairman of the Chuanglian Agricultural Machinery Professional Cooperative Association, is full of confidence, "Soon, this Changsha city will The largest fully automatic and intelligent seedling raising factory will be completed and put into operation, and it will also provide commercial seedlings for the surrounding large farmers."
"Raising seedlings has always been a problem that plagued the production of early rice in the south. In the past, various households used to raise seedlings separately, with high costs and high risk of disasters." Tan Xinlong told reporters that Changsha City has effectively solved the traditional rice seedling raising by implementing the rice factory rice seedling raising demonstration project. There are problems such as long emergence time, uneven emergence, and unstable yield.
Agricultural machinery and tools are directly related to the progress and quality of spring ploughing production and the increase in grain production and income.
In Shuangfeng County, a major grain-producing county in Hunan, Li Xinyang, a major grain grower in Songjiang Village, Santangpu Town, recently conducted a "physical examination" on rotary tillers, rice transplanters, etc. "Immediately the early rice soaking and germination must be prepared in advance, and the farming time cannot be delayed." .
Agricultural machinery sales are also very hot.
Last year, Hunan invested 7.204 billion yuan to complete the construction of 4.6 million mu of high-standard farmland.
With the opening of the spring ploughing curtain, the newly built high-standard farmland is about to be put into use, which will boost the agricultural machinery market.
"Policy support is strong, and farmers are very motivated to buy." Liu Zhan, general manager of Changsha Wangcheng Hedong Agricultural Machinery Co., Ltd., calculated an account for the reporter. The original price of a rice transplanter was 148,700 yuan. Now after various subsidies, it is only 30,000 yuan. Diversity can be bought. "High-standard farmland construction has been gradually completed, and mechanized planting has become more and more recognized. With the help of the agricultural machinery subsidy policy, this year's agricultural machinery sales have more than doubled compared to previous years."
