In mid May, when walking into the artillery shell taro planting base in Fengqing Village, Beituo Town, Zhaoping County, we saw the agricultural drone’s spiral wings accelerating and rotating with a huge roar, flying to the designated spraying location at a constant speed according to the predetermined program set by the operator. The benefits brought by technological development to our farmers are too great. Drone spraying pesticides is not only worry free but also labor-saving, “said the villagers of Fengqing Village with a smile.
The artillery shell taro planting base began planting and operation in March this year, with a planting scale of 65 acres. This kind of taro originated in Lechang, Guangdong Province. A single mature taro can weigh more than 10 jin. It is a superior raw material for making food Dim sum and delicacies, and has been widely praised by consumers for many years. Planter Qiu Binjun actively carried out local planting plans and brought planting techniques back to his hometown after studying in Guangdong, driving the development of characteristic agriculture.
It is reported that since the Zhaoping County Industrial Task Force included taro planting in the industrial development award and subsidy project last year, the Beituo Town Party Committee and government have actively promoted party organizations at all levels to play the role of branch fortresses, organizing party members and cadres, poverty-stricken households, and large planting households to participate in various taro planting technology guidance and training. By applying various intelligent machinery, agricultural production efficiency has been improved, and the comprehensive development of the taro industry has been promoted. At present, the total planting area of sweet potato in Beituo Town has expanded to 568 acres. Next, Beituo Town will continue to promote the promotion of mechanical technology through the “Party building+technology” model, accelerate the pace of modern technology to promote agriculture, lead the deepening of characteristic agriculture, and comprehensively assist rural revitalization and technological development through multiple channels and directions.
