CCTV News: As the weather gets warmer, spring plowing preparation has entered a critical period. All localities actively carry out the transportation and reserve of spring farming materials, and make every effort to ensure the demand for spring farming agricultural materials.

In the Yinchuan South Freight Farm of the Lanzhou Bureau of the National Railway, loading and unloading personnel are loading fertilizers into railway trucks and sending them to Tianjin, Hengshui, Linyi and other places to meet the needs of spring farming. The railway has opened up a "green channel", formulated a "one enterprise, one policy" transportation plan, implemented 24-hour operations, and achieved any loading. Currently, more than 2,400 tons of fertilizers are transported every day. Since the beginning of this year, a total of 113,600 tons of spring farming materials have been shipped.

In view of the characteristics of early spring plowing time and high demand for fertilizers in the south, Xinjiang Railway reasonably allocates vehicles, loading and unloading personnel and machinery, provides "one-to-one" door-to-door service, and efficiently connects loading and shipping links to achieve "as production and transportation". According to statistics, the average daily unloading of chemical fertilizers in 16 railway freight yards including Kashgar, Aksu, Kuche and Hotan in southern Xinjiang reached more than 7,900 tons, an increase of 16.27% over the same period last year.

In order to ensure spring farming production, Shanxi Province Jincheng Gaoping Agricultural Production Materials Company relies on more than 120 service outlets to deliver high-quality fertilizers and pesticides directly to farmers' doorsteps through the "agricultural supplies express train". In addition, some local agricultural input companies have also launched services such as telephone reservations, WeChat ordering, free delivery, and dismantling and selling of whole products to open up the "last mile" of agricultural input supply.

Tianjin: Spring sowing is fully started, seeds are sown evenly

In the spring plowing and spring sowing process in various places, some new agricultural machinery has also been added to production. Mechanized operations have improved the quality and efficiency of agricultural production.

In a farmland in Xizhaizhuang Town, Jinghai District, Tianjin, four seeds lined up and followed the route to sprinkle wheat seeds into the ground evenly. As the southernmost agricultural area in Tianjin, the sowing here also marks the full launch of more than 2.2 million mu of spring sowing in Tianjin this year.

This year, Guangdong further promoted centralized seedling cultivation, and 70 new centralized seedling cultivation centers were invested in the province, and the production efficiency was significantly improved.

In a seedling cultivation factory in Shuyun Village, Heshan City, workers place the seedling tray at the front end of the automatic seedling cultivation machine, and the machine can automatically complete a series of steps such as sprinkling soil, sowing, and sprinkling water.

In Jiangxi, major agricultural machinery markets are in full swing, from arable land, sowing to harvesting and transportation, all the machinery and equipment for the entire process of agricultural production are available. This intelligent rice transplanter equipped with advanced navigation automatic driving system is quite popular. Based on the latest Huitian Beidou satellite navigation system, whether it is straight or curved, it can travel according to the preset route to ensure full coverage of the operating area.

This year, Jiangxi plans to plant 18.1 million mu of early rice. The local agricultural department vigorously promotes new agricultural machinery technologies and accelerates the pace of agricultural mechanization. At the same time, Jiangxi Province also encourages farmers to purchase green and efficient agricultural machinery equipment through agricultural machinery purchase and application subsidy policies, improve agricultural production efficiency, and lay a solid foundation for a bumper harvest of early rice.

Changji, Xinjiang: Mechanical snow is broken and prepared for spring plowing, laying the foundation for a bumper harvest of wheat in spring

The plan for the year lies in spring. At present, in northern Xinjiang, many farmlands are still covered with thick snow, but spring plowing preparations have begun. Manas County, Changji Hui Autonomous Prefecture, is organizing large-scale machinery to help farmers carry out snow-breaking operations to ensure the smooth progress of spring wheat sowing.

In order to speed up the melting of snow, Manas County began snow-breaking operations on farmlands that plant spring wheat on February 17. Under the rake plow of high-horsepower tractors and heavy-duty notch rakes, the snow was evenly broken.

Yang Xiaoming, a villager in Weijiachang Village, Beiwucha Town, Manas County, said: "After we break this snow through mechanical force, we can enter the ground in advance until early April, and we can catch up with the best sowing period for spring wheat and ensure the yield of spring wheat."

Mechanical snowbreaking can also improve land moisture and leveling, laying the foundation for a bumper harvest in spring wheat.

It is understood that Manas County plans to complete mechanical snowbreaking operations on more than 8,000 acres of spring wheat farmland by February 25, and strive to achieve early snowbreaking, early land preparation, early sowing and early seedlings in spring this year.
