The entire process of “Smart Farm” is unmanned

On September 13th, the reporter walked into the National Agricultural High tech Zone, Chengguan Town, Linhe District, Bayannur City, Inner Mongolia. The park aims to create a leading area for agricultural intelligent irrigation, a demonstration area for Yellow River drip irrigation, a model area for non-point source pollution prevention and control, and an agricultural technology experimental demonstration area. The park collaborates with research institutes to build four major functions: smart agricultural machinery, smart irrigation, smart plant protection, and smart meteorology.

In the smart agricultural machinery exhibition area, the reporter learned that all agricultural machinery used in various main links such as leveling, sowing, fertilization, management, and harvesting for agricultural production are equipped with Beidou satellite navigation. Based on the precise navigation technology of Beidou, the land utilization rate and seedling emergence rate have been increased by 5-10%, the fertilization amount has been reduced by more than 5%, and the average yield per mu has been increased by more than 10%, achieving a comprehensive improvement in economic benefits.

Smart plant protection combines modern science and technology, utilizing technologies such as satellite remote sensing, drone monitoring, the Internet of Things, big data, and artificial intelligence to address key issues such as precise management of crop diseases, pests, and weeds. Plant protection drones not only apply pesticides, but also have functions such as data collection and monitoring. This system mainly achieves intelligent agricultural spraying operations through ground remote control or GPS flight control. Compared with traditional plant protection operations, it has the characteristics of precise operation, efficient environmental protection, intelligence, and simple operation, greatly improving agricultural production efficiency.

Smart irrigation is jointly constructed by China Agricultural University, Chengguan Town People’s Government, and Lingda Agricultural Company, utilizing multiple high-tech technologies such as intelligent perception technology for agricultural crop water information, simulation and simulation technology for crop water systems, and intelligent decision-making and control technology for irrigation. Compared to traditional irrigation, it saves more than 40% water and 35% fertilizer, effectively solving prominent problems such as poor irrigation accuracy, low water use efficiency, and non-point source pollution in Hetao irrigation area, providing important technical support for agricultural water-saving and efficiency enhancement.

Smart Weather utilizes applications such as cloud computing, the Internet of Things, mobile internet, big data, and intelligent technology to make the meteorological system a system with self-awareness, analysis, judgment, and action capabilities, providing intelligent meteorological services.
