Drones “on duty” to improve production efficiency

On March 21, 2023, over the farmland of Chengyu Village, Taishan Town, Huojia County, Xinxiang, Henan Province, a UAV, under the control of professional personnel, flexibly flew low and shuttled back and forth along the planned route. With the humming sound of rotor rotation, herbicides were sprayed from the nozzle of the fuselage and evenly sprayed into fertile fields.

This drone is really a good thing. Previously, it was only used by others. This year, the government led the construction of high standard farmland, and after land improvement and continuous planning of our farmland, we also used this high-tech technology. You see, this medicine is more convenient, fast, even, time-saving, labor-saving, and cost-effective. “Zhang Naibo, a villager from Chengyu Village, said happily.

At present, in order to lay the foundation for a good grain harvest, at the construction site of high standard farmland in Taishan Town, waste trucks and excavators are working together, and neat tractor roads are beginning to take shape.

Since 2023, based on the actual situation of the village, Taishan Town has fully played the leading role of party building, with the creation of a 42000 acre high standard farmland demonstration zone as the starting point, exploring the advantages of land resources, integrating high-quality farmland in a concentrated manner, seizing the “golden period” of construction, and striving to create high standard farmland with centralized and contiguous areas, supporting facilities, good ecology, and strong disaster resistance, to help increase agricultural efficiency and farmers’ income, Comprehensively promote the revitalization of rural industries through technology empowerment, and achieve sustainable development of the smart agricultural industry.

At the same time, in order to achieve the goal of “contiguous farmland and unobstructed agricultural machinery”, Taishan Town has successfully solved the problems of farmland fragmentation and land compensation by holding a “3533” party and mass representative meeting, starting from “seeking the interests of farmers” and consulting with the masses on an equal footing, using “replacement” and “transfer” methods.

With the newly built waterways and tractor roads, the entire process of farming in the farmland can be mechanized from planting to harvesting. High tech equipment such as drones will only be used by more people in the future, “said Zhang Yanbin, a villager from Chengyu Village, looking at the green wheat seedlings.

According to the overall planning of high standard farmland construction, Taishan Town has achieved efficient and water-saving irrigation of 42000 acres, with 25.89 kilometers of hardened canals, 196 new machine wells, 47.53 kilometers of supporting tractor roads, 39026 supporting green trees, 100.8 kilometers of pre buried low-voltage lines for farmland transmission and distribution projects, and one new supporting farmland production technology monitoring station to build a farmland information management system.

Next, Taishan Town will continue to introduce and promote new varieties, technologies, and models of grain cultivation, fully leveraging the synergistic effect of technology in promoting rural revitalization. By integrating and integrating “modern agriculture, digital agriculture, and smart agriculture”, a new modern agricultural situation of “high grain yield, economic efficiency, production safety, and public satisfaction” will be created.
