Evolution and Change! China's agricultural machinery running into the 4.0 era, the trend of the times | Agricultural industry observation

Agricultural mechanization is an important foundation for strengthening agriculture through science and technology and accelerating the modernization of agriculture and rural areas, and it is also an indispensable part of improving grain production capacity. General Secretary Xi Jinping attaches great importance to Heilongjiang as a "ballast stone" for national food security. On September 25, 2018, General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized during an inspection in Heilongjiang to vigorously promote agricultural mechanization and intelligence, and insert the wings of science and technology into agricultural modernization. On September 8, 2023, after a lapse of five years, General Secretary Xi Jinping inspected Heilongjiang again and emphasized that he would take the lead in realizing the modernization of agricultural material equipment, the modernization of science and technology, the modernization of operation and management, agricultural informatization, and the sustainability of resource utilization. Over the past five years, the whole province has conscientiously studied and implemented the spirit of General Secretary Xi Jinping's important instructions and worked hard to promote new breakthroughs in the cause of agricultural mechanization. By the end of 2022, the total power of agricultural machinery in the province will reach 70.9081 million kilowatts, and the comprehensive mechanization rate of crop cultivation and harvest will reach more than 98%, ranking first in the country.

Development and Present Situation of Agricultural Mechanization in China

In terms of development effectiveness, China's agricultural mechanization has entered a period of development to the full range of high-quality and efficient transformation and upgrading. Agricultural production has shifted from relying mainly on human and animal power to relying mainly on mechanical power. The Party Central Committee and the State Council attach great importance to the development of agricultural mechanization, and issued the "Guiding Opinions of the State Council on Accelerating the Transformation and Upgrading of Agricultural Mechanization and Agricultural Machinery Equipment Industry", and implemented a series of policies and measures to accelerate the development of agricultural mechanization. The agricultural mechanization management system and mechanism have been continuously optimized, the free policy of agricultural machinery safety supervision and convenient measures have been implemented, the administrative license for the issuance of agricultural machinery maintenance technical certificates has been canceled, the pilot reform of "license separation" of agricultural machinery driving training institutions has been carried out, the agricultural machinery test and appraisal system has been reformed, and the informatization of agricultural mechanization management has been promoted. The total power of agricultural machinery nationwide reached 1.056 billion kilowatts, an increase of 17% over the end of the 12th Five-Year Plan period. The comprehensive mechanization rate of crop cultivation and harvesting reached 71.25 percent, of which the comprehensive mechanization rates of wheat, corn and rice reached 97 percent, 90 percent and 84 percent, respectively.
