Entering the core area of the Huaiyuan County Rice and Wheat Production Mechanized Comprehensive Demonstration Base Heliu Seed Farm, the vast Anhui Huiliang Smart Agriculture Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Huiliang Smart) was filled with various agricultural machinery such as high-speed rice transplanters and grain combine harvesters. Over 2000 acres of water rice were lush and full of vitality, but apart from the wandering egrets, there was no one. Zhou Anxiang, Chairman of Huiliang Smart, introduced that the over 2000 acres of land would have required hundreds of people to manage, but now he can manage it well alone.
In 2020, with the guidance and assistance of the Agriculture and Rural Bureau of Huaiyuan County, Zhou Anxiang invested nearly 3 million yuan to build an intelligent monitoring and management system for field production, following the concept of “Internet of Things+Blockchain+5G”, with improving the informatization and modernization level of crop production processes as the core, and dynamically monitoring the “four situations”. The growth status of glutinous rice, surface water depth, pests and diseases, meteorological data, etc. are monitored at any time, and real-time data is transmitted to the platform. Zhou Anxiang said that by analyzing the data, the “four emotions” analysis can be carried out on the computer without leaving the office, and corresponding agricultural arrangements can be made in the first time.
Huiliang Smart has integrated 6 agricultural machinery cooperatives and 1 family farm in nearby towns. Zhou Anxiang said that a few days ago, after monitoring that the glutinous rice is in a critical period and needs to be treated with pesticides, he immediately contacted Huiliang Smart and sprayed all the glutinous rice fields in one day by purchasing socialized paid services.
Huiliang Intelligence is focusing on creating a free supply and demand platform, providing customers with the best cost-effective services, maximizing resource efficiency, and comprehensively activating rural resources. Currently, the yield of glutinous rice has increased by 26 kilograms per mu compared to before, with a 21.8% reduction in fertilizer usage and an average cost saving increase of 303 yuan per mu. The price of glutinous rice is more secure and the advantages are more obvious, “Zhou Anxiang said.
Several plant protection machines are operating on 30000 acres of land in the core area of Longkang Farm in Huaiyuan County. Out of sight are rice, drifting in the wind and growing happily. Surprisingly, there are only 23 staff engaged in frontline farmland management, with an average of over 1000 acres managed per person. This is thanks to its use of intelligent agricultural systems to improve agricultural efficiency from three dimensions: air, field, and underground. Longkang Farm relies on advanced agricultural management systems and aerial drones to provide low altitude remote sensing in the field, which can monitor crop growth, diseases and pests, etc. Tanaka spore capture devices can also monitor diseases in real-time. At the same time, the farm has also installed a large number of sensors in the soil, and information such as water temperature, humidity, inorganic salt content, and conductivity will be automatically fed back to the processing center. All of this is thanks to its use of intelligent agricultural systems to improve agricultural efficiency from three dimensions: air, field, and underground. “According to the staff of Longkang Farm, each piece of land in the core area is numbered and archived, and data is updated in summer and autumn. The crops produced have achieved a quality traceability system.
