In June, the wheat fragrance spreads all over the earth, and golden grains return to the warehouse. In the scorching summer, wheat has already begun to be harvested in many places. Today (June 16), at the unmanned farm in Xinba Town, Haizhou District, Lianyungang City, the work of summer harvesting and summer planting has realized unmanned operation. Unmanned agricultural machinery has replaced manual work, and orderly operation in the fields has been carried out to complete the leveling and harvesting of summer harvesting and summer planting with high yield and efficiency.
During the summer wheat harvest season, in the already harvested wheat field behind the reporter, the land consolidation machine is shuttling back and forth. Upon closer observation, it will be discovered that there is no driver on the agricultural machinery, so how can the machine operate on its own? In fact, this 1300 acre land is the first “5G+Unmanned Farm” demonstration base in the province. With just a click of a mouse, agricultural robots and automation equipment can be busy in the vast farmland, without the need for manual intervention throughout the entire process.
The reporter noticed that not far away from the wheat field, a technician was skillfully operating his phone. The harvester moved freely in the wheat field with the instructions issued by the technician’s phone, and the real-time transmission of harvest data was also refreshed on the phone. Behind this new agricultural production method is the support of 5G+Beidou technology.
During the summer harvest, relying on 5G technology, the farm has achieved accurate planting and visual management in the analysis of insect, soil moisture, meteorological data and other information. Unmanned tractors, Rice transplanter, plant protection machines, harvesters and other agricultural machinery and equipment of various brands are connected at a high speed. In combination with Beidou high-precision positioning technology, the accuracy of mechanical operations has been improved to centimeter level, throughout the whole process of grain crop cultivation, planting, management and harvesting.
The unmanned driving of agricultural machinery is to realize the whole process of unmanned starting from the hangar to the field operation, and then returning to the hangar. The whole unmanned degree is relatively high, and there are high requirements for network delay and other characteristics. It is the time for 5G network and edge computing technology to show their talents.
Based on high-tech, “unmanned farms” can obtain real-time data on soil fertility, crop growth, diseases and pests, and other aspects of rice and wheat growth. Further opened up the four major links of “cultivation, planting, management, and harvesting”. After a year of homework testing, compared to traditional mechanical operations, the work efficiency has been improved by 10%, pesticide costs have been reduced by 5%, and labor costs have been saved by about 50%.
