[Explanation] In the control room of a macadamia nut plantation in Xingbin District, Laibin City, Guangxi, Wang Bin, the head of the nut orchard, is monitoring the security situation of the orchard and the work of picking workers through the screen.

Wang Bin introduced that the nut orchard covers an area of ​​more than 13,500 mu. With the help of digital technology, managers can grasp the orchard security, growth, insect pests, picking and other information while sitting in the control room, which greatly saves labor costs and time costs.

  Our entire macadamia nut orchard covers more than 13,500 acres. If we manage it according to the traditional (method), we need about 30 administrators. For daily security, we need about 50 to 60 people. Through the construction of our smart agriculture, we We can manage the administrators with less than 10 people, and we can manage the security guards with more than a dozen people. The (manpower) cost is saved about 300,000 yuan per year, and the daily fruit tree management We save about 50 to 50 600,000, for all these visible costs, we save about one million.

  [Explanation] Wang Bin introduced that the digitalization of the orchard will be completed in three phases. At present, the orchard has invested more than 2.3 million yuan and installed 496 cameras. The first phase of digital construction has been completed, which can complete auxiliary base management, monitor fruit tree diseases and insect pests and It is estimated that the construction of the third phase will be completed in 3 to 5 years in terms of growth conditions and management of workers' work conditions.

  (After completion) Through our equipment, we track the production of the entire orchard, the growth of each tree, the annual output of fruit trees, and our cost, precision agriculture.

Now that it is semi-mechanized, it is ready to implement fully mechanized and unmanned development. In the future, mechanical equipment will basically develop in the direction of unmanned operation. By then, our entire orchard may only have 20 or 30 people.

  [Explanation] Climate and water environment have always been important factors restricting aquaculture breeding. In a local aquaculture breeding base, rows of fish ponds are neatly arranged, and various values ​​in the monitoring room not far away are displayed in real time. Zhang Junchang, the person in charge of the breeding base, said that the equipment of the base can effectively eliminate the impact of climate on aquaculture breeding. At the same time, the data returned by various monitoring sensors in the fish pond also saves a lot of manpower and time costs for fish pond management.

  At the (same) scale, it's about 12 to 15 people, but on a device like ours, it's usually 5 to 6 people.

The saving is the problem of oxygen supply. It does not require many people and many water pipes. In the past, oxygen supply was directly flushed with water pipes, but now one oxygen (equipment) can be done.

In the past, the water was tested manually with test strips, but now it is no longer needed. The entire data goes directly from the probe back to the office. This (in the past) had to be tested every two to four hours, but now it can be seen every minute.

  [Explanation] It is understood that this project is a demonstration site for digital rural construction in Xingbin District. In accordance with the requirements of "water saving, circulation, environmental protection, and controllability", it plans and optimizes factory farming to improve the utilization rate of circulating water and the quality of water treatment technology. , Comprehensive utilization rate of waste, compared with traditional breeding methods, circulating aquaculture can save 50-100 times of land and 160-2600 times of water per unit of aquatic products produced, and save 90%-99% of water and water than traditional aquaculture. 99% of the land.
