Sharing the dividends of intelligent mechanization in the rice industry

The autumn wind blows, and the fragrance of rice enters the spleen. After hard work, the autumn grain area in Dejiang County has steadily increased this year, and the growth is better than in previous years. At present, 154000 acres of rice in the county are entering the mature period, from workshops to fields, from harvesting to production, mechanization and intelligence are working together, transforming “a harvest in sight” into “a harvest in hand”.

In the workshop of Xingnong Rice Industry Co., Ltd. in Dejiang County, the sound of the machine was booming, and only the purchased rice was automatically processed through various processes such as dehulling, impurity removal, milling, polishing, color selection, measurement, and packaging. Then, the staff arranged the packaged “Liangjiaba” rice neatly for truck transportation.

In 2022, the company successfully renovated an intelligent rice production line with an annual production capacity of 30000 tons using 3 million yuan of funds based on production needs, reducing the labor intensity of workers and production costs of the enterprise. The annual production capacity was also increased from 10000 tons to 30000 tons, and two new functions such as rice milling and color selection were added. This not only improved the quality of rice, but also reduced the rate of broken rice.

The intelligent technological transformation has brought long-term, visible, and tangible economic benefits to enterprises. As a provincial-level leading enterprise, Dejiang County Xingnong Rice Industry Co., Ltd., with the support of relevant national policies, has always been exploring the transformation towards “equipment intelligence” and “production intelligence” in addition to ensuring supply and increase. It is committed to improving the level of equipment intelligence, improving production efficiency and product quality.

The person in charge of Dejiang County Xingnong Rice Industry Co., Ltd. introduced that rice processing is a low-profit industry, and enterprises will be very cautious in investing in new equipment. Thanks to the support of relevant national policies, enterprises have the confidence to try equipment upgrades and obtain better profits.

In recent years, the county has been supported by modern agricultural machinery equipment, continuously improving agricultural machinery operation infrastructure, updating agricultural machinery equipment, and vigorously cultivating agricultural machinery socialized service organizations to promote agricultural modernization in depth.
