The seventh generation of agricultural robots, the whole environment ＂data＂ monitoring irrigation! Science and Technology Empowers Jinshan ＂Smart Agriculture＂

Jinshan as an agricultural regionIn recent years, the transformation of old and new kinetic energy in agriculture has been continuously promoted.Through the empowerment of science and technology, we will accelerate the development of agriculture into science and technology, intelligence, informationization and precision, and put wings on rural revitalization..

At present, it is spring ploughing season. At Diantian Robot Smart Farm in Tinglin Town, technician Zhou Pengfei is debugging the latest generation of agricultural robots with his colleagues. Rotary tillage, ridging, watering, sowing, and sending operation instructions through mobile phones, these agricultural robots equipped with GPS and Beidou dual systems will "do their jobs" and automatically realize accurate operations with an error of less than 5 cm.

Zhou Pengfei, Technician of Shanghai Diantian Agricultural Cooperative.

Manual operation can’t make a straight line. If we use our machine, every positioning is very accurate, and a straight line will be formed from point to point, making the ridge surface very flat.

In order to change the traditional agricultural production mode, six years ago, Shanghai Diantian Agricultural Cooperative targeted the field of intelligent agricultural robots. Nowadays, the agricultural robots in the cooperative have been updated to the seventh generation. By using technologies such as 5G, artificial intelligence image recognition and big data system, more than 30 tasks such as farming, weeding and picking can be carried out, covering all aspects from cultivated land to harvest.

After upgrading, we also have some of our own supply chains, including some cooperative factories.

At the same time, the AI intelligent operating system and saiga architecture of agricultural robots independently developed by the cooperative can realize the cooperative operation of multiple agricultural robots independently, and truly realize the digitalization of the whole process of agricultural planting and farming management. At present, these intelligent agricultural robots have been widely used in farms in Shanghai, Zhejiang and Northeast China. In 2023, the annual GDP of cooperatives is expected to reach 150 million yuan.

Wang Jinyue, Chairman of Shanghai Diantian Agricultural Cooperative.

In the future, this R&D system will be more open, open source and more adaptable.

"Intelligentization" is not only applied to agricultural operations, but also reflected in modern agricultural irrigation. In the cooperative base of Tinglin Town Huawei Water Saving Technology Group Co., Ltd., a large number of air and soil sensors are distributed in the intelligent strawberry greenhouse with full environmental control. They pay close attention to the growth of crops all the time, and the data such as soil pH value and dry humidity will be monitored in real time and sent back to the computer, which will give instructions after judgment, so as to realize accurate automatic irrigation.

Jiang Tingting, technician of Huawei Water Saving Technology Group Co., Ltd.

The expert system will analyze whether these data are in line with the growth of crops, so that we can know whether it needs watering or fertilization.

By monitoring irrigation with "data" of the whole environment, each greenhouse can save more than 95% of water and fertilizer, and the strawberry yield is also increased by nearly 30%. At present, Huawei has carried out intelligent water and fertilizer integration, Internet of Things agriculture, digital factory, facility cultivation system construction and technical guidance in all regions of the country, covering an area of more than 3 million mu in 25 provinces across the country. Only Huawei drip irrigation technology can benefit about 1.2 million mu of farmland every year, saving costs and increasing efficiency for growers by about 1.2 billion yuan.

Lv Mingli, Chairman of Huawei Water Saving Technology Group Co., Ltd.

Huawei has accumulated more than 20 years in the industry, and we are the first entity to realize the commercial application of crop growth models, accurately matching different growth stages to meet the needs of water, fertilizer, light and heat.

At present, Jinshan District has established smart agriculture experimental zones such as BOE, Songlin, Jiufeng and Rongmei. The intelligent soilless culture system was built by Zhilian Factory, a special vegetable in Langxia Town, BOE, with the help of AI technology, and the mechanized planting coverage in the vegetable growing process was over 90%. Dingdong is the first self-operated vegetable planting base to buy vegetables, which can realize the mechanization of seedling raising, tillage, ridging, transplanting, plant protection and harvesting. In the next step, Jinshan will focus on the joint construction of the national agricultural science and technology modernization pioneer zone, and continuously introduce, digest and absorb cutting-edge agricultural science and technology achievements, so that digital empowerment can promote the high-quality development of Jinshan agriculture.
