CCTV News: In 2025, the early rice planting area in Changning City, Hunan Province exceeded 250,000 mu. At present, with the help of the Beidou navigation system, the efficiency and quality of mechanized rice transplantation have been further improved, laying a good foundation for stable grain production and increase income.


In the rice fields of Liangyi Village, Yangquan Town, Changning City, two rice transplanters equipped with Beidou navigation system are shuttled through the fields. A plate of tender green seedlings are accurately inserted into the paddy field through a conveyor belt. The error of the seedlings' row spacing shall not exceed 3%, and the error of depth adjustment can be ±1 cm. Compared with traditional artificial rice transplanting, the application of intelligent agricultural machinery navigation system not only saves labor, but also significantly improves accuracy and efficiency.


In order to ensure the efficient promotion of spring ploughing, the local area has established an agricultural machinery professional cooperative alliance to coordinate the allocation of rice transplanters, rotary ploughers, etc., and also installed terminal equipment of free Beidou satellite system for each rice transplanter, which can timely and accurately calculate the transplant area. Huaiyuan, Anhui: Wheat enters the ear-pregnancy period, local water extraction and irrigation to ensure production
At present, 1.7 million mu of winter wheat in Huaiyuan County, Bengbu City, Anhui Province has entered the ear-pregnancy period. The local area has started spring irrigation work to ensure soil moisture and meet the moisture required for wheat growth.

In Luhu Village, Huaiyuan County, Bengbu City, local personnel and machinery are organized to sprinkle winter wheat through ditches wells in the fields to alleviate soil water shortage and ensure that winter wheat passes through the ear-bearing period smoothly.


In Tangji Town, Huaiyuan County, the units in the drainage and irrigation station are fully powered and water-lifted to irrigate, and 150,000 acres of wheat in the town are effectively irrigated.


The Huaiyuan County Agricultural Department has also established multiple technical service groups to go deep into the fields and formulate irrigation plans for farmers based on soil moisture conditions and wheat growth conditions, so that the wheat can "drink water until it is just enough." Weining, Guizhou: Good seeds and opportunities to help potato spring seeds
Guizhou is one of the main potato production areas in my country, and the potato planting area is more than 10 million mu every year. In 2025, Weining County, Bijie City will comprehensively promote the planting plan for new potato varieties, increase investment in agricultural machinery, and improve the efficiency of the potato industry.

In recent days, the 10,000 mu potato seed expansion base in Weining Yi, Hui and Miao Autonomous County is stepping up the promotion and planting of multiple main varieties. In 2025, the local raw potato seed production will stabilize at more than 80 million pills, and the planned area of potato planting is 1.5 million mu.


These new varieties have stronger drought resistance and better quality. In order to improve planting efficiency, the local area has also tried to promote new technologies, including two-increase and one-inhibiting technology for early maturing potatoes, and mechanical ridge-raising black film covering cultivation. In addition, relevant departments have also increased their investment in machinery and equipment to meet the needs of growers.


At present, the local area has completed 325,000 mu of early-mature potato planting in low-altitude areas, of which 20,000 mu of early-mature potatoes are in the field management period.
