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 Farm Equipment

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.
