The deployment of Agricultural big data by the Ministry of Agriculture is very important to agricultural modernization.

Recently, the Ministry of Agriculture recently issued the "implementation opinions on promoting the Development of Agricultural and Rural big data," comprehensively arranging the development of big data in agricultural and rural areas, according to China Rural Voice of China.

The "opinions" clearly defines the five basic work and 11 key areas for the development and application of big data in agricultural and rural areas, including tamping the construction of the national agricultural data center, promoting data sharing and opening up, and giving full play to the functions of all kinds of data; highlight 11 key areas, such as supporting intelligent agricultural production and implementing accurate monitoring of agricultural resources and environment.

Under the circumstances of fierce market competition and difficulties in selling agricultural products, Agricultural big data is becoming more and more important. Li Guoxiang, deputy director of the Macro View Office of the Institute of Rural Development of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, believes that if all kinds of data can be collected, under the guidance of big data, farmers can basically grasp the general trend of agricultural products, and agricultural production is no longer blind. Greater losses can be avoided:

Li Guoxiang: the content of big data in agricultural and rural areas is extremely extensive. The data collected by China's statistical system are all important contents of big data, such as grain production data, price data and farmers' income data. These are all big data. With the development of Internet technology, especially new business type of rural farmers, such as the development of agricultural products through e-commerce, big data should include more extensive content in the future. Data that could not be collected in the past can be collected through the development of new modern technologies and e-commerce. In the past, the quantity and price of agricultural products were often estimated by one-third statistics and seven points, which were not very accurate, and the guiding significance of agricultural production and farmers' life was greatly restricted and restricted.

In addition, in order to ensure solid progress and practical results in the development of big data in agricultural and rural areas, the "opinions" make arrangements for the progress of implementation, and at the same time require agricultural departments at all levels to earnestly implement their responsibilities and promote the improvement of infrastructure. In Li Guoxiang's view, Agricultural big data will play an important role in the process of China's agricultural modernization:

Li Guoxiang: in the future, we must establish the concept of big data, because the information technology of credit and the development of new business type, the data can be generated in time. In the future, these data may directly guide farmers' production, circulation and logistics. In particular, farmers will make full use of big data to fix production by sales, customized agriculture, intelligent agriculture and precision agriculture in the future. It is believed that big data can play a more and more important role in the process of agricultural modernization, new rural construction and farmers' striving for a well-off society in the future.
