Farmers in Jiangsu province are getting busy with autumn harvest.As the promotion and application of a series of new technologies and new models has allowed many farmers to taste the sweetness of technology assistance. Let's take a close look.
This year, for the first time, Jiangsu has promoted the technology of "belt-shaped compound planting" of soybean and corn on a large scale. This technology can give full play to the sideline advantages of high-level crops and corn, expand the light-receiving space of low-level crops of soybeans, and realize the harmonious symbiosis of soybean and corn on the same plot, and double harvest in one season.
In Shiye Town, Dantu District of Zhenjiang, and Shuanggou Town, Xinyi County of Xuzhou, corn and soybeans are growing well in the fields. Driven by technology promotion and demonstration, farmers who try compound planting for the first time are expected to increase their income by 200 yuan per mu this year.
"In the past our corn yield was about 800 to 1,000 jin per mu and banded multi-cropping can increase the per-mu yield to 1,200 to 1,500 jin," said Liu Xueji, Senior Agronomist, Zhenjiang Nonggu Science and Technology Park Co., Ltd.
Qiao Linzhong, who grows grains on a large scale in Lianshui County, was seen instructing the fellow villagers checking the soil moisture and the occurrence of pests and diseases in the paddy fields through the smart agriculture APP system on their mobile phones.
Since the implementation of the transformation of the digital agricultural base, it is possible to remotely monitor field moisture, seedlings, pests and disasters remotely through mobile phones, making field management both precise and easy.
