Accelerating the Development of Digital Agriculture in Multiple Areas of Shandong Province

Drones equipped with satellite navigation can automatically plan routes to spray pesticides and avoid obstacles. After the medication is sprayed, it will automatically return to the dosing point On the 23rd, Li Jianguo, the planting supervisor of an agricultural service company in Qihe County, Dezhou City, was using his mobile phone to operate a drone and spray pesticides on over 4000 acres of corn fields he was responsible for, with a daily spraying capacity of about 1000 acres.

The air temperature is 31.4 ℃, the temperature is 68.25%, the soil temperature is 19.05 ℃, and the humidity is 24.1%… Li Jianguo has multiple smart platforms installed on his phone, and the platform data is updated every 15 minutes. He introduced that if farmland needs to be replenished with water, the plot and valve opening and closing time can be set through the integrated irrigation app of water and fertilizer. Even if people are out of town, they don’t delay watering.

Digitalization has become a necessary path for the development of agriculture in Shandong. In recent years, multiple regions in the province have developed smart agricultural systems, utilizing internet platforms to monitor agricultural production data, improve production efficiency, and promote the rapid development of agricultural digitization.

Currently, in Juye County, Heze City, more and more modern agricultural industrial parks are tightly integrating technology and agriculture. At the Defu Nursery Farm in Zhangkou Town, the seedlings of celery, broccoli, cucumber, and other crops are thriving, and various monitoring data are clearly displayed on the terminal display. Each seedbed has sensors that transmit various types of data to monitoring equipment for easy control and adjustment by staff, “said Jiang Heng, the head of the seedling factory. Since the beginning of autumn, the order volume of the seedling farm has skyrocketed, with a monthly supply of over 5 million fruit and vegetable seedlings to the market.

Chengwu County, Heze City, integrates the advantageous resources of agricultural products throughout the county, continuously improves the construction of a traceability system for agricultural product quality, and enhances the awareness and added value of agricultural and sideline products. Among them, Datianji Village in Chengwu County integrates information such as domestic garlic planting area, domestic and international sales, as well as national per mu yield, unit yield, and price trends to form a big database. Through the form of “big data+merchants+farmers”, dealers are kept informed of the garlic trading market situation on that day, allowing farmers to plant garlic more scientifically and effectively.

Traditional farms require 6 to 7 workers to raise 50000 chickens, and we can easily manage it with just one worker, “said Wu Chenglei, the farmer of Mingfeng Chicken Breeding Family Farm in Zhongqu, Zaozhuang City. The farm has innovatively developed a smart breeding management system that combines software and hardware, artificial intelligence, intelligent software, and other methods to continuously improve breeding production efficiency and optimize product quality.

Entering a digital plant factory in Kouzhen Street, Laiwu District, Jinan City, the reporter saw bright golden ears growing happily in sterile mushroom rooms. We have installed an intelligent temperature and humidity control system that can achieve the most suitable temperature and humidity for the growth of golden ear in the workshop. “Technician Bi Jianbo introduced that the factory has 6 workshops for planting golden ear, with each workshop producing over 700 kilograms.
