At present, Jilin, a major grain province, has entered the rice harvest season. Zhang Shuai, a villager from Wujia Village, Wanchang Town, Yongji County, Jilin City, doesn’t have to go to the fields every day to work. Instead, he sits at home and remotely monitors the field conditions, using walkie talkies to command harvesting.
109 cameras have been set up in the farmland, and sitting at home can watch the crop situation of each piece of land in real time. Now, the harvesters of the cooperative are unified in the field for mechanized harvesting, and even the rice ears and grains can be clearly seen which piece of land they have received.
In order to catch up with the launch of new rice, Zhang Shuai has already started to harvest early maturing rice. My family has planted more than a day of land this year, and it is expected that the yield will increase by about 1000 kilograms compared to previous years, with an additional income of over 5000 yuan.
Nowadays, rice cultivation in Wujia Village not only achieves intelligent field management, but also has a unique private customization model that allows local rice to find a good market. Private customization refers to the establishment of a fully visible agricultural system through the Internet of Things and big data. Planters can provide plant protection and fertilization according to customer requirements, and customers can view the current status of their subscribed rice fields in real time at home, “said Wang Wei, Secretary of the Party Branch of Wujia Village.
Wanchang Town, Yongji County is located in the “World Golden Rice Belt”. In 2023, the total rice planting area of the town was 125000 acres, making it one of the main rice producing areas in Jilin Province. Zhou Hongliang, the mayor of Wanchang Town, introduced that the local government has taken multiple measures to ensure a bountiful rice harvest. On the basis of promoting good varieties and methods, the entire process of mechanical participation has been achieved, from sowing and seedling cultivation, deep plowing and land preparation, to fertilization and transplanting, fertilizer and pesticide spraying, and then to harvesting and warehousing, grinding and packaging of rice.
Starting from September 7th this year, the rice harvest period is expected to begin. It is expected to be harvested on a large scale after the National Day holiday. The rice yield will exceed 200 million kilograms, an increase of 5% compared to last year. Zhou Hongliang said that thanks to the construction of high standard farmland, the promotion of agricultural technology, and the protection of black land, it has become a foregone conclusion to increase grain production and income this year.
At the Jiujiufeng Family Farm in Yongji County, Jilin City, a multi-layer and three-dimensional control system consisting of ground cameras, low altitude drones, and remote sensing satellites has become the “golden eye” for understanding crop growth and pests, making farmland management precise and easy.
On the “Smart Agriculture” control platform of the farm, real-time updated videos allow for a clear understanding of the growth of rice and the situation of pests and diseases on the plot. This year, the rice planting area is 4000 acres, with an estimated yield of 4.6 million catties. Compared to last year, the growth rate has reached 5% -10%. “Farm manager Xiao Jianbo said that this year’s temperature is extremely favorable for rice growth, and the rice planted has a golden color and full grains.
