Production of Major Crops in Tibet Has Been Mechanized

 In recent years, the agricultural and rural departments at all levels in the region have done a good job in the work of "three rural areas" focusing on rural revitalization, vigorously promoted the modernization of agriculture and rural areas, steadily implemented the subsidy policy for the purchase of agricultural machinery, innovatively introduced the characteristic agricultural machinery subsidy policy, and actively developed agricultural machinery The promotion of new technologies and new equipment has promoted the rapid improvement of the level of agricultural machinery and equipment in the region, and the structure of agricultural machinery and equipment has been continuously optimized. In 2022, it is estimated that the comprehensive mechanization rate of plowing, planting and harvesting of the main grain crops (highland barley) in the region will be 69.8%, an increase of 1.8 percentage points over the previous year.

It is reported that agricultural machinery purchase and application subsidies are one of the important policies of the Party Central Committee and the State Council to strengthen agriculture, benefit farmers and rich farmers. Our district is the first in the country to carry out the pilot project of "excellent machine and excellent subsidy" for wheeled tractors with accumulated subsidies. Various types of agricultural machinery socialized service entities purchase wheeled tractor products. %, cumulative subsidies are also applicable to combine harvesters and other agricultural machinery used for grain, oil and grass-fed production. This major innovation has greatly improved the enthusiasm and initiative of agricultural production and management entities and farmers and herdsmen in purchasing machines. In 2022, the region will implement a total of 119.953 million yuan of subsidies for the purchase and application of agricultural machinery from the central government and the autonomous region, support 16,548 farmers and herdsmen and agricultural production and operation organizations, and purchase 23,000 sets of agricultural machinery.

Grow and Harvest Crops Using Farming Equipment

Do you know how easy it is for today's farmers to use mechanized methods to grow and harvest crops?

In the past, many large farms needed to plough the fields when they were cultivating. Today, people often used tractors to drag the land to plough. There are many large and small agricultural machines on the farm, but there are too many machines, and the daily maintenance and cost are relatively high. If there is such a machine that can replace most agricultural machines, will the production cost and efficiency be much higher? In order to solve this problem, a company in Germany has really designed and manufactured a modular overall crop production system. The simple understanding is that one host can easily complete different agricultural production with different agricultural templates. For example, if he wants to leave the ground now, he only needs to install the ploughing module and he can put it into production immediately. If he wants to harvest sunflowers, corn, rice, etc., he only needs to replace the corresponding modules to work, and the whole process only needs one person. It can be completed in less than ten minutes, and the efficiency is very high. In short, it is an all-in-one system, a tractor.

Responsible for handling every work step, from planting to seeding, plant protection and harvesting. The machine is equipped with a quick-change modular system, where the technology required for each work step can be easily installed and removed. With variable working widths from six to 24 meters, the machine is also equipped with a cab or peripheral monitoring system that can be rotated 270 degrees for process monitoring. The integrated main implement is mounted between four large electric track running units that can be rotated 90 degrees for road travel. Power is currently provided by two independent diesel engines, each with an output of 545 hp, with generators, and a purely electric drive may be used in the future. With the integrated weather-resistant combine harvester template, the rotary system can achieve grain throughputs of 130 to 200 tons per hour. The harvested grain is stored in a 36-cubic-meter bunker, which can be transported to the place within the reach of the vehicle, and then unloaded in limited quantities, with a capacity of 600 liters per second, a process that takes about a minute, and a combination of different functions. module.

In the future, ploughing, leveling, irrigation, harvesting, weeding, etc. are all possible. Moreover, it has a wider body, which improves efficiency and greatly reduces the range of soil compaction by the crawler. It is really technology that changes life.

Role of Farming Equipment in China's Vegetable Cultivation

China is the largest vegetable producer and consumer, and the growth rate of vegetable cultivatio is higher than the world average. According to the National Bureau of Statistics, In 2016, the national vegetable planting area was about 22 million hectares. Among them, greenhouse vegetables are 5 million h㎡,

Vegetable production is about 800 million tons, The planting area and output account for more than 40% and 50% of the world's total, respectively.

China's vegetable mechanization is currently in the initial stage, with a comprehensive mechanization level of less than 30%. Plain open field vegetables benefited from the development foundation of field machinery in the early stage in fertilization, soil preparation, sowing, plant protection and irrigation etc., and the degree of mechanization was relatively high.

Due to the limited operating environment of facility vegetables, large-scale agricultural machinery generally has the problems of "difficult to walk, difficult to enter, difficult to cultivate on the side, difficult to drop the head, and difficult to achieve high efficiency", and only a few small agricultural machinery can carry out operations.

As the leading industry of high-efficiency agriculture, facility vegetables are an important symbol of modern agriculture. The planting area accounts for 1/4 of the total area of vegetables, and it is increasing year by year. There is an urgent need for mechanization. Therefore, flexible and practical small agricultural machinery has broad application prospects in the production of facility vegetables.

What hinders the development of agricultural mechanization in China?

Before the promotion of the household contract responsibility system, China was able to implement mechanization. On the one hand, the intensification of land and the development of agricultural machinery; manpower, creating an environment suitable for agricultural mechanization.

However, in mountainous areas, there is still resistance to promoting agricultural mechanization.

On the mountain road in the village, it is difficult to deploy your agricultural machinery and equipment. Driving a walk-behind tractor on the mountain road on our side is exciting. Large-scale agricultural machinery is even more difficult!

Why do people not want to farm now? To put it bluntly, farming is time-consuming and labor-intensive and not profitable.

If the farmers are tied to the countryside as before, even if the countryside is mechanized, the output every year will not be enough for the young men in the city.

There are fewer and fewer people in rural areas, especially young people

Like us, we still go home to work every year when the farming is busy, just because the old people are unwilling to leave the farmland, and always feel that they are farmers after all.

But if there is no such main force in farming in the future, it is basically impossible to expect middle-aged and elderly people like us to farm again.

If a professional civil engineering team is required to carry out the construction and renovation, the cost cannot be covered at all, and the cost benefit is directly disproportionate!

There is a basic consensus on our side of the farm: if you can farm for a year, you can count it as quite acceptable.

Promotion and application of Smart Farm machinery in China

 Recently, I had an in-depth exchange with Mr. T of a domestic intelligent agricultural machinery technology company BC. When I listened to Mr. T's introduction of their intelligent agricultural machinery products, I seemed to have a deeper understanding and experience of "knowledge changes destiny" - the young man in front of him did have his unique characteristics when introducing the application of intelligent products in agricultural production. insights and unique perspectives.

Smart agriculture and intelligent agricultural machinery will no longer be the dream of agricultural machinery people. At present, intelligent navigation products are widely used in agricultural machinery and are basically recognized by agricultural machinery people. Smart trailers, smart harvesters, and smart rice transplanters have not yet been fully used; although unmanned farms have been tested and demonstrated in some places, they still need to be cautious and operate in a low-key manner. Perhaps in some developed countries, unmanned farms are no longer a new thing, but in China, which started late and developed slowly, in reality, it always feels that some elements are still missing to truly realize intelligent agricultural machinery.

1. Popularization and promotion of intelligent agricultural machinery

If we only rely on entrepreneurs and their R&D teams to create a new era of smart agriculture and smart agricultural machinery, there are indeed some elements and motivations missing. Only rely on private enterprises and individuals to change the modernization of agricultural machinery, but always feel that the motivation and stamina are insufficient. After all, the investment of private enterprises in R&D requires financial strength and R&D talents. The crux of the problem is that the financial strength does not allow it. In addition, relevant policies fluctuate back and forth, and the development plans of relevant departments and the support of human and financial resources are not yet obvious, or ordinary people cannot understand or understand.

Crawler-type mini excavator, a good helper in farmland orchard!

 Nowadays, agricultural development requires efficiency and quality. It has basically bid farewell to the era of manual labor and has moved towards agricultural mechanization. The application of small excavators has also become more and more extensive, from the construction industry to agriculture, replacing rural labor and liberating farmers and friends from heavy farm work.

Orchard excavator

After the small excavator joined the farming battlefield, it has been repeatedly praised, so why does the small excavator occupy everyone's mind?

Mini agricultural excavator

The first point is price. Large-scale agricultural machinery is expensive, and farmers are under great financial pressure if they buy them individually. In contrast, the price of small excavators is affordable and cost-effective, which can be afforded by ordinary farmers. Secondly, the small excavator has various functions and works fast, and the small excavator can meet different operating requirements by replacing different attachments, such as buckets, wood grabbers, rotary pits, and breakers. The small excavator is small in size, easy to turn and easy to pass, and can easily enter the orchard or low greenhouse for operation. 

Crawler-type Mini Excavator

Small excavators have many advantages, reasonable price, stable and reliable performance, and fast working speed. It not only saves the input of labor, but also improves the efficiency of farming. It is a good helper for our farmers!

Mini Farm Equipment takes turns on the field, planting vegetables made easy and efficient!

 Japan is one of the most developed countries in agriculture in the world, and it is also the country that attaches the most importance to agriculture. They realize that their arable land is small, so they require intensive cultivation of every inch of arable land. This is quite admirable. How powerful is Japanese agriculture, don't look at anything else, let's take a look at their agricultural machinery, maybe you have the answer in your heart.

Although Japan's agregate land area is small, its comprehensive strength is very strong. It is very powerful in the fields of industry, education, science and technology, agriculture, etc., especially Japan's agricultural machinery. All aspects of agricultural production have corresponding agricultural machinery. Moreover, the small and user-friendly design of these agricultural machinery is very suitable for small and scattered farmland. With the help of agricultural machinery, their production efficiency has been greatly improved and agricultural upgrading has been promoted. Today, let’s talk about how the Japanese grow vegetables? Let's see which miniature agricultural machines they use? Feel the power of Japanese micro agricultural machinery.

We know that Japan's industry is very developed, and the production of industrial products pursues excellence. Of course, the quality is also quite good. The Japanese grow vegetables just like the production of industrial products, and strive for excellence in every link. Take growing vegetables as an example, the whole process of mechanization, a variety of micro agricultural machinery take turns on the field, planting vegetables is like playing, easy and efficient, let's take a look at how Japanese farmers grow vegetables?

In order to prevent the growth of weeds, reduce the number of pesticides and keep the maturity of agricultural products consistent, mulch must be used for planting vegetables, but it is not manual mulching, but using agricultural machinery. The first thing you see is a set of sowing, fertilizing, and mulching machine that integrates film, although the machine is small but powerful, the machine is equipped with a fertilizer box, seed box, and mulch, when the machine goes forward, the seeds, fertilizer and mulch are spread, and the mulch There are many regular holes on it, and the seeds grow out through the holes in the mulch after germination.

In order to ensure better growth of vegetables, a large scaffold needs to be erected. At this time, this miniature agricultural machine is needed. This is a machine for installing a large scaffold. The required dragon skeleton is placed in the designated position of the machine, and the machine slowly Walking forward, the dragon skeleton is firmly inserted into the soil ridge, and the width can be kept the same, which saves a lot of time than manual installation.

Next, you need to cover the film on the dragon skeleton, and there is no need to lay it down manually. With this film covering machine, it is very helpful. Fix the film on the frame of the machine, and push the machine to move forward. The film is like pulling Like a roll of paper, it is pulled open and covered on the built dragon skeleton. It can be laid in one row in a single swipe, which is fast and efficient.

When the vegetables are mature, when it is time to pick, the film on the skeleton needs to be removed, but this does not need to be taken manually. It can be easily done with this plastic film recycling machine. Pull up the plastic film and fix it on the rotating disk. Front opening, the film is recycled like a snowball.
