Further mention of mechanization issues such as hilly and mountainous areas and belt compound planti

It is reported that over 22.5 million sets of various types of agricultural machinery and equipment will be put into use in China during the spring plowing period this year, providing equipment support to ensure a bumper summer grain harvest and stable annual grain production and increase.

Nowadays, agricultural machinery has become the main force of agricultural production. Compared with traditional manual operations, agricultural machinery has high efficiency and can effectively resist natural disasters, ensuring timely production of large areas of farmland during agricultural time. By improving the quality of mechanized operations throughout the entire process, continuously optimizing equipment performance, deeply tapping into the potential for increasing grain and oil crop yield, and increasing yield on a large scale, while reducing seed usage and reducing losses in the harvesting process.

However, currently, the development of agricultural mechanization in China is not balanced and sufficient in different regions, industries, varieties, and links. Some aspects such as mechanized production of important agricultural products and important agricultural machinery operation services still cannot keep up, and there is still a lot of room for machine replacement. For example, the level of mechanization in hilly and mountainous areas of China is very low, and the integration of agricultural machinery and agronomy is not comprehensive enough. The level of mechanization in rice planting, grain drying, sugarcane harvesting, fruit tea picking, and other aspects in double season rice areas is not high. The development of traditional intercropping yield increase models, soybean and corn belt compound planting, and other mechanization is still difficult. The level of mechanization in animal husbandry, aquaculture, and facility agriculture is also not high.

In response, Liu Xian, the President of the China Agricultural Mechanization Association, stated that it is necessary to establish a big food concept, focus on the weaknesses and shortcomings of various food production equipment, vigorously promote the comprehensive and high-quality development of agricultural mechanization throughout the entire process, and promote the extension of mechanization from cultivation to pre production and post production, from planting to animal husbandry, fisheries, agricultural product processing industry, and facility agriculture, and from plain areas to hilly and mountainous areas, Improve the mechanization level of the entire agricultural industry chain, enhance the mechanization support capacity for implementing the big food concept, and provide equipment support for ensuring the stable supply of food and important agricultural products.

As a major country in the production, manufacturing, and use of agricultural machinery, China's agricultural machinery manufacturing capacity has significantly improved, and the agricultural machinery equipment product system is becoming increasingly rich, capable of producing over 4000 agricultural machinery products. However, agricultural machinery equipment is large but not strong, and many are not optimal. Some key technologies, core components, and materials are subject to human constraints, while some high-end machinery mainly relies on imports. In some regions, equipment supply and demand contradictions are still quite prominent.

The relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs stated that it is necessary to accurately supplement the shortcomings of agricultural machinery and equipment by targeting agricultural production needs. We have promoted breakthroughs in the core technologies of complete machines and key components such as hilly and mountainous areas, facility planting and breeding, and large-scale high-end intelligent equipment. A batch of domestically produced 240 horsepower continuously variable speed tractors, cotton harvesters, rapeseed transplanters, and other short board machines have been successfully mass-produced. Adhere to the efforts of both research and development, manufacturing, and promotion of applications, promote the full chain collaboration of research, production, and application, strengthen the efforts to supplement the shortcomings of agricultural machinery and equipment, and accelerate the self-reliance and self-reliance of agricultural machinery and equipment.

In recent years, the informatization and intelligence of agricultural machinery equipment in China have significantly improved, effectively improving the quality and efficiency of agricultural machinery operation services. However, overall, some key components such as agricultural sensors and intelligent connected terminals, as well as basic software technologies, have a high degree of external dependence. Data fragmentation and "system isolation" are still common, and there are shortcomings and weaknesses in the identification and detection capabilities of intelligent agricultural machinery equipment. Liu Xian stated that we need to accelerate the promotion of agricultural machinery informatization and intelligence, promote technological innovation of intelligent agricultural machinery equipment, accelerate the demonstration and application of intelligent equipment technology, promote the digitization of agricultural machinery management work, and provide important support for the development of smart agriculture.
