Accelerate the process of promoting the intelligent process of agricultural machinery and plug in the "wings of science and technology" for food production

In the face of the complex and changeable international situation, intelligence and unmanned are the direction of
China's agricultural mechanization development in the future.
It is necessary to accelerate the research and development and manufacturing of intelligent agricultural machinery equipment, accelerate the construction of rural information infrastructure, make network information cover without dead ends, all-weather, and low-cost, and make full use of modern agricultural technologies such as agricultural Internet of Things, big data, and cloud computing to improve the level of intelligent operation of
food production.

At present, the aging of rural labor force is becoming increasingly prominent, which has become a potential hidden danger
affecting food security.
The Central Rural Work Conference proposed that building an agricultural power and ensuring the stable and secure supply of grain and important agricultural products has always been the top priority
in building an agricultural power.
It is necessary to focus on key agricultural machinery and equipment, accelerate the completion of the shortcomings of agricultural machinery equipment, explore a new path of integration of intelligence and agricultural machinery agronomy, truly realize "machine substitution", effectively solve the century question of "who will farm and how to farm", and promote the high-quality development of
food production.

Agricultural mechanization is the only way for the development of
modern agriculture.
In recent years, China has vigorously promoted the development of agricultural mechanization and intelligence, grain production has entered a new stage dominated by mechanization, at present, the comprehensive mechanization rate of crop cultivation and harvest exceeds 72%, and the comprehensive mechanization rate of cultivation and harvest of major grain crops exceeds 80%, of which the comprehensive mechanization rate of wheat, corn and rice three major grain crops cultivation and harvest exceeds 97%, 90% and 85% respectively
。

Practice has proved that the contribution rate of agricultural mechanization to grain production increase has increased significantly
.
Compared with traditional artificial farming, the application of agricultural machinery is conducive to the implementation of the concept of scientific farming, and the use of standardized operations can effectively reduce seed waste in the grain sowing process, reduce the loss rate of the harvesting link, and ensure a higher yield of grain
.
More importantly, agricultural machinery has high efficiency, can effectively seize agricultural time, enhance the ability of food production to resist natural disasters, and ensure stable and high grain production
.
This year, China's grain can overcome the adverse factors such as late sowing of winter wheat, local epidemics and continuous high temperature and drought in the south caused by rare autumn floods in the north to increase production and harvest, which is inseparable from the help
of agricultural machinery and equipment.

Mechanization in hilly and mountainous areas is the "depression"
of China's agricultural mechanization development.
Among China's 1.
8 billion mu of arable land, more than one-third of the arable land is in hilly and mountainous areas, and the comprehensive mechanization rate of agriculture in hilly mountainous areas is 20 percentage points
lower than the national average.
This is because China's hilly and mountainous areas have poor natural conditions, small and scattered plots, "palm fields" and "chicken nest fields" everywhere, complex planting structures, many varieties, intercropping of grain and cash crops is common, and there is a shortage of small agricultural machinery to adapt to hilly and mountainous operations, and some places are facing the problem
of inorganic availability and no good machine available.
The infrastructure in hilly and mountainous areas is backward, the field roads are narrow, rugged and uneven, and the road passability is poor, resulting in difficult agricultural machinery to go to the field, difficult to operate, difficult to transfer, and some machines can not be used, and the use of machines is more troublesome
.
All localities should speed up the construction of high-standard farmland in hilly and mountainous areas, carry out mechanized transformation of cultivated land, accelerate the development and manufacturing of agricultural machinery adapted to hilly and mountainous areas, comprehensively improve the level of mechanization of grain production in hilly mountainous areas, and tap the potential
of increasing grain production in hilly mountainous areas.

Intelligent and unmanned is the direction
of China's agricultural mechanization development in the future.
China's smart agriculture is in the ascendant, unmanned farms, agricultural machinery towns are blooming everywhere, agricultural machinery deep loose operation monitoring, agricultural drone plant protection, agricultural machinery unmanned, harvest yield monitoring, agricultural machinery management information system and other intelligent equipment in agricultural production is widely used, farmers from can farm to "smart farming", "facing the loess with their backs to the sky" farmers, now "holding mobile phones to engage in field management"
。 Compared with traditional agricultural machinery, intelligent agricultural machinery truly liberates manpower, farmers do not leave home, only need to press the remote control start switch, unmanned tractors, rice transplanters, combine harvesters and plant protection drones can be prepared according to the pre-set operation route land preparation, planting, fertilization, spraying, harvesting, can be 24 hours the whole unmanned autonomous operation, greatly reduce labor costs and time costs, improve agricultural production efficiency
.

At present, China's agricultural mechanization is in the stage of development from mechanization to intelligence, and it is also facing problems such as
lagging research and development of intelligent agricultural machinery, network signal coverage in remote areas, and shortage of intelligent talents.
It is necessary to speed up the research and development and manufacturing of intelligent agricultural machinery equipment, accelerate the construction of rural information infrastructure, make network information cover without dead ends, all-weather and low-cost, make full use of modern agricultural technologies such as the agricultural Internet of Things, big data, and cloud computing, improve the level of intelligent operation of food production, plug in "scientific and technological wings" for food production, and firmly hold the Chinese rice bowl in their own hands
