Shandong speeds up the transformation from a strong agricultural province to a new mode of vegetable cultivation for farmers

[introduction to China vegetable Network] driven by new subjects and new services, Shandong Province strives to improve agricultural production capacity and the efficiency of agricultural products, and speed up the transformation from a major agricultural province to a strong agricultural province. At the beginning of the new year, the subsidy for the purchase of agricultural machinery in Yanzhou District of Jining City was officially launched in 2016, and the agricultural machinery cooperative of Xinyan Town submitted an application.

Driven by new subjects and new services, Shandong Province strives to improve agricultural production capacity and the efficiency of agricultural products, and speed up the transformation from a major agricultural province to a strong agricultural province.

At the beginning of the new year, the subsidy for the purchase of agricultural machinery in Yanzhou District of Jining City was officially launched in 2016, and the New Yanzhen Agricultural Machinery Cooperative submitted an application to buy five high-power tractors. Chen Jijun, chairman of the cooperative, said that the five 140 horsepower tractors are mainly used for the operation of deep loosening machines and deep tillers in the cooperative.

When purchasing new machinery, cooperatives value new income. The cooperative has focused on conservation tillage this year. It is initially estimated that these five new machines can directly increase crop income by more than 5% per mu. The driving force should be upgraded, and crop varieties should also be adjusted and optimized. among the more than 3000 mu of land transferred by cooperatives, Jinan 17, Xinmai 26 and other high-efficiency and high-quality varieties are growing happily. Chen Jijun said: it is no problem for the yield of these wheat to reach more than 1300 jin per mu, and the price is 1 to 20 cents higher than that of ordinary wheat per jin, and the income can be increased by more than 200 yuan per mu of land.

Chen Jijun's continuous innovation comes from moderate scale operation. Data show that at present, Shandong Province has the largest number of new business entities such as cooperatives and family farms in the country, and more than 40% of the land in the province is managed on a large scale.

Accompanied by the new subject, the new social service organization is also gradually changing the traditional mode of agricultural production. Meidong Agricultural Science and Technology Company in Qihe, Texas, has built more than 900 high-standard vegetable greenhouses, rented them to farmers, and acted as a full-time "technical babysitter" to guide farmers in standardized production. Wang Lanzhong, a big local grower, is one of the beneficiaries. He said that the company's technicians provided him with new techniques for ridge cultivation, where vegetables originally planted in ditches are now planted on ridges, which can save 50% of water and 60% of pesticides.

The new planting model makes Wang Lanzhong's vegetables labeled "green", and the price is 30% higher. Driven by service, the agricultural material sales of agricultural technology companies have also increased by 60%. Today, the service scope of this agricultural technology company has been able to cover several surrounding townships, covering an area of 42000 mu, accounting for 1/6 of the vegetable planting area of the county.

At present, in Shandong, there are more than 200,000 social service organizations of all kinds, covering planting, animal husbandry, breeding and other fields. With the continuous progress of the service level of these social service organizations, agricultural products are gradually changing from the pursuit of quantity growth in the past to quality optimization and efficiency improvement.

According to experts, Shandong grain production has achieved 13 consecutive abundant, good results are also a new threshold, most of the land output is difficult to increase continuously, the sale of ordinary grain varieties is difficult, the price is low, and the efficiency is poor, which has seriously restricted the increase of farmers' income and the development of agriculture and rural areas. To cross this threshold, there must be new growth points, and these new growth points come from farmers organizing themselves to enter the market, from making great efforts to promote new technologies and varieties, and from intimate services that are in line with the market and delivered to the fields in a down-to-earth manner.
