How to realize the leap to smart agricultural machinery in the era of agricultural mechanization

[ China Agricultural Machinery Industry News ] China is a big agricultural country. When farmers work, they often need the help of agricultural machinery. In the era of rapid development of agricultural mechanization, many farmers have also used time-saving and agricultural machinery, but with society. With the rapid development of science and technology, smart agricultural machinery is gradually changing the era of agricultural mechanization. How to better realize the leap of agricultural mechanization to smart agricultural machinery has become a goal of continuous efforts.

How to realize the leap to smart agricultural machinery in the era of agricultural mechanization

"Workers must first sharpen their tools when they want to do their best." Since ancient times, the importance of tools has been widely recognized. In China, a large agricultural country, agricultural tools have become an indispensable “partner” for farmers to work. Mao Zedong once emphasized that "the fundamental way out for agriculture lies in mechanization." Nowadays, with the development of science and technology, agriculture has entered the era of mechanization. The high-tech agricultural machinery has greatly liberated the hands of the peasants and changed their image of “facing the yellow earth back to the sky”. It also changed the traditional production methods and liberated agricultural productivity.

In the hometown of tea and Xianning in the town of ramie, the Municipal Academy of Agricultural Sciences based on local characteristics, giving full play to its own functions, setting up the Agricultural Machinery Research Institute in the first provincial and municipal academies of agricultural science and technology, in order to promote the realization of the city's agricultural development strategy and agricultural machinery development goals. It has made important contributions to agricultural development, farmers' income, and rural prosperity.

Said the result: the agricultural machinery research "hemp" first

In the processing workshop of the Agricultural Research Institute of the Agricultural Science Research Institute of the Municipal Academy of Agricultural Sciences, there are various types of agricultural machinery and equipment. These are the scientific research achievements of agricultural machinery experts in recent years. Among them, the meticulous mechanization equipment represented by the automatic hemp removal machine is striking.

"In the context of market economy and household contract management, mechanical technology replaces manual labor, which is an important means to realize the optimal allocation of modern agricultural resources and adjust the structure of rural industries." Cai Ketong, director of the Agricultural Machinery Institute of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, said that Xianning is " The land of ramie, the ramie production here has occupied more than 50% of the national market. However, for thousands of years, ramie processing relies entirely on manual operations, which is not only inefficient, high in cost, but also in quality. In order to better serve the people and service industries, since 2003, the Agricultural Machinery Institute has regarded the research and development of mechanized harvesting and processing mechanization technology and equipment as the focus of scientific and technological innovation, and the research institutes such as Huazhong Agricultural University and the Nanjing Agricultural Mechanization Research Institute of the Ministry of Agriculture. , enterprise cooperation, industry-university research and development combined to provide scientific and technological support for the development of ramie industry. In 2005, the Ning brand 6TM20 dual-purpose hemp removal machine was successfully developed. It was the only machine product in the country that was listed in the national support promotion catalogue.

For more than ten years, the Agricultural Machinery Research Institute of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences has started with the three-step approach of “from simple hemp removal machine to automatic hemp removal machine to ramie combined harvesting”, starting with the analysis of existing mechanization techniques and mechanical and physical properties of ramie stems. In the research of hemp harvesting and processing machinery, he obtained 8 authorizations (including 2 inventions), published 16 papers and 8 design drawings. Developed a variety of physical prototypes of reverse pull, straight feed and cross feed, developed two products and promoted and applied them in a large number. The results were rich, and three of them have won the city's scientific and technological progress award, creating a complete harvesting and mechanization technology. The system solves the technical problems of mechanized harvesting and processing that restrict the development of the castor industry. Nowadays, in the face of the shrinking status of the ramie market, the Institute has changed its development thinking and applied the idea of ​​ramie defatting machine to sisal. After 2 to 3 years of planning, design, implementation and test improvement, the 6JM20 sisal fiber was completed. The results of the extraction machine were identified and registered, and 4 related papers were published.

Once upon a time, Xianning’s fields rarely saw the “shadow” of modern agricultural machinery. On the one hand, because Xianning is a hilly area, large-scale agricultural machinery commonly used in the north is somewhat "unacceptable"; on the other hand, it is not highly aware of farmers' understanding of agricultural machinery, and does not know how to purchase, select, maintain and maintain. This has set a threshold for the research, introduction and promotion of agricultural machinery in our city, and has also put forward more stringent requirements for agricultural machinery workers in our city.

“What are the benefits of the agricultural machinery cooperatives in terms of the purchase subsidy policy? How should rice harvesting machinery be used for selection...” With such doubts, Wang Chongxi, a large grain grower from Lukou Town, Chongyang County, found Cai Ketong. Like this kind of visit or call, Cai Ketong often receives, and while giving patient answers, he feels the responsibility on his shoulders.

"While doing scientific research, we should also consciously carry out agricultural machinery technical consultation and technical services to serve the social services of agriculture, rural areas and local economies, and correctly handle the relationship between social services and agricultural machinery technology innovation." Cai Ketong said. To this end, the Agricultural Machinery Institute of the Municipal Academy of Agricultural Sciences has been focusing on research and promotion. Nowadays, the rice fields are “iron cows” and the tea gardens are singing. In 2015, the Municipal Academy of Agricultural Sciences organized a seminar on agricultural machinery development, established cooperative relations with institutions and enterprises, hired professional and technical personnel from outside to join the agricultural machinery team, expanded the backbone, and went deep into factories and rural areas to learn and help farmers solve the actual situation. The problem was to provide telephone consultation, face-to-face training, sample reference, intermediary and other services for the insecticidal lamp and aerator of Hubei Jinfuyang Technology Co., Ltd., and to provide a research and development team for Hubei Huaxin Technology Co., Ltd. The project provides consultation; help the large grain grower Rao Wangzhen to improve the service, manage the machine tillage machine to receive more than 500 acres... In 2015 alone, the agricultural machinery for the cooperative (farmers) to solve more than 30 problems, not only help farmers achieve increased production, increase income, but also promoted agricultural machinery in me Promotion and application of the city.

Exhibition future: based on local striving

As a local agricultural research unit in Xianning, the Agricultural Machinery Research Institute of the Municipal Academy of Agricultural Sciences closely follows the major scientific and technological issues of Xianning modern agricultural development strategy, resource development and utilization, and keeps pace with the times. It is a major agricultural project, major special project, and agricultural industry. The implementation of projects such as chemistry provides strong technical support. Last year, the Agricultural Machinery Research Institute only reported as many as 14 items.

With the rapid development of Xianning tea industry, the area of ​​tea gardens in our city has expanded year by year, and the management cost of tea gardens has also increased. It is particularly urgent to introduce tea garden management machinery suitable for local cultivation. To this end, Cai Ketong led the team to start the whole mechanization research work of tea garden production, and selected the tea machinery as the next stage work center of the agricultural machinery center, focusing on the tea garden multi-functional management machine research and demonstration project, and at the same time declaring the brick tea tea cutter and the real thing. Production, testing, and improvement work, providing technical support for the development of Xianning's billion-dollar tea industry, filling the gap in urgently needed equipment.

In the future, the Agricultural Machinery Institute will also be based on local characteristics, focusing on the production and processing mechanization of regional agriculture in the “four towns and six industries”, and carrying out research and experiments on new technologies and new tools for grain (rice), forest (bamboo), tea farm machinery, Demonstration promotion. Focus on improving the mechanization technology of tea garden production. At the same time, we will strengthen the construction of agricultural machinery innovation teams, and strive to create a strategic goal of “provincial and national” agricultural machinery institutes in the province and the country, and realize the leap from agricultural machinery to smart agricultural machinery.
