The transfer mode of agricultural mechanization has achieved remarkable results in improving quality.

Since the beginning of this year, the Ministry of Agriculture has fully implemented the spirit of the Central Rural work Conference and the National Agricultural work Conference, taking changing the development mode of agricultural mechanization and improving the quality of development as the main line. we will strive to promote the "comprehensive, whole-process, high-quality and efficient" development of agricultural mechanization.

The policy of subsidies for the purchase of agricultural machinery has been implemented efficiently and standardized.

The first is to fully implement the "full-price purchase of machines". This year, with the exception of some administrations in Beijing, Xizang and Heilongjiang Reclamation areas, all other provinces have implemented "full-price machine purchase, fixed subsidy, county-level settlement, and direct subsidy to cards."

The second is to highlight the key points and promote the GSP of the policy. 21 provinces across the country have chosen to implement open subsidies for some of the machines and tools urgently needed.

The third is to streamline administration and delegate power and promote market-oriented reform. Further clarify the agricultural machinery production enterprises independently set dealer qualification conditions and determine dealers, farmers independently choose agricultural machinery sellers, independent bargaining, and allow cross-county purchase of machines.

The fourth is to simplify procedures for the convenience of farmers. Pilot projects will be carried out in some provinces for farmers to purchase machines first and then apply for subsidies, and one-stop services such as purchasing machines and applying for subsidies in large agricultural machinery markets will be implemented.

Fifth, strengthen supervision and seriously deal with violations of regulations and discipline. It defines the specific requirements for the disclosure of information on rural subsidy policies in ministries, provinces and counties. Strengthen the investigation and punishment through special inspection and acceptance of complaints and reports. As of June 30, the country had paid a total of 5.96 billion yuan in subsidies for the purchase of agricultural machinery from the central government, subsidizing 1.105 million sets of agricultural machinery and tools, benefiting 970000 farmers.

The production of agricultural mechanization is powerful and orderly during the important agricultural season. During the spring ploughing period, a total of 24.34 million sets of agricultural machinery were invested in mechanized production operations such as machine cultivated land, wheat watering, machine sowing and machine transplanting in spring, with a total machine ploughing area of 680 million mu, an increase of 10 million mu over the previous year, and a machine sowing area of 576 million mu. During the "three summers" period, a total of 550000 harvesting machines were put into operation throughout the country, and the harvesting area of wheat machines was 287 million mu, and the harvesting level reached 92 percent, an increase of 1 percentage point over the same period last year. The one-stop operation mode of "wheat harvesting-straw returning to field-corn no-tillage sowing" was vigorously promoted. 1.1 million planters were put into operation in the Huang-Huai-Hai summer corn region, and 142 million mu of summer corn machines were sown. Agricultural machinery professional cooperatives have become the main force of wheat harvest; the peak period of wheat harvest in the country has moved forward as a whole, and the end time of wheat harvest is 4-5 days earlier than that of the same period last year.

New progress was made in the mechanization of the whole process of grain production and the mechanization of the weak links in the production of bulk cash crops. Giving full play to the guiding role of central financial funds, 19 rice and 8 corn mechanized Shifan counties have been set up throughout the country. In conjunction with relevant scientific research and extension institutions, we have carried out a demonstration of the whole-process mechanized high-yield and high-efficiency production model of bulk cash crops, and distributed the whole-process mechanized production demonstration film in the country, which is mainly based on the mechanical harvest of rape, cotton, sugar cane and peanut. We will carry out related test and demonstration work such as variety selection, machine selection and cultivation methods, and strive to overcome relevant technical problems. In the first half of the year, nearly 20, 000 on-the-spot meetings and training courses on agricultural mechanization technology were held nationwide, and 16 million copies of various technical publicity materials were distributed. A total of 120 million mu of new agricultural mechanization technologies have been added to promote subsoiling land preparation, mechanized transplanting and other new technologies.
