Shaheying Town, Chenggu County: Smart Agriculture Helps Increase Income

The fruit grower Gao Shan Lin in Shaheying Town, Chenggu County has started a day of “agricultural work” in the operation room. Through real-time monitoring and remote monitoring, drip irrigation on dozens of acres of land can be started with one click, which not only facilitates irrigation and fertilization, but also saves more usage and costs lower. He sighed, “With the participation of smart agriculture, farming has also kept up with the new era. Previously, farming was based on experience and feelings. Now, relying on technology and data the final say, it not only saves time and labor, but also increases production efficiently.

In recent years, Shaheying Town has actively adjusted its industrial structure and built a smart fruit and vegetable greenhouse base in Liangjia’an Village. The project has a planned construction area of 150 acres and a total investment of 5 million yuan, promoting industrial transformation, improving quality and efficiency, and the road to industrial revitalization is becoming wider and wider.

The base focuses on enzyme agriculture, organic cultivation, and biological control, introducing fruit and vegetable intercropping technology, mainly developing high-quality grapes such as Sunshine Rose and Queen Nina, as well as high-quality fruit and vegetable products such as fast-growing leafy vegetables, ice cream tomatoes, pink tomatoes, etc., achieving intelligent digital management, breaking the bottleneck of land, water, fertilizer, and labor constraints in the facility industry. In terms of water-saving and fertilizer control, labor and time saving, and disease reduction The outstanding performance in temperature and humidity control, water and fertilizer balance, and yield increase and efficiency improvement has played a significant demonstration and driving role in the high-quality and efficient development of the entire town’s industry.

While steadily developing, the base has driven surrounding farmers to increase their income through various forms such as participation in business operations, labor, and land transfer. More than 30 villagers in the surrounding area have been employed here, with an average monthly income increase of over 3000 yuan. This not only enriches the ‘vegetable basket’ of citizens, but also boosts the ‘money bag’ of surrounding vegetable farmers.
