May 20, 2020, hosted by the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences and undertaken by the China Rice Research Institute and the People’s Government of Yuhang District, Hangzhou CityplanterLightweight and efficient planting technology on-site observation meeting was held in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province.

Shi Jixi, Deputy Director of the Standing Committee of Zhejiang Provincial People's Congress and Chairman of the Provincial Federation of Trade Unions, Sun Tan, Director of the Institute of Agricultural Information, Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Chen Mengshan, President of the Chinese Society of Agricultural Technology Economics, Zhu Defeng, Researcher of the China Rice Research Institute and Director of the Rice Cultivation Technology Center, etc. More than 100 agricultural researchers and major grain farmers from all over the country participated in this observation meeting.

During the period, the most concerned is the hybrid rice precision seeding and transplanting line seedling planter jointly developed by the China National Rice Research Institute and our company. The hybrid rice precision seeding and transplanting line adopts the current highest new seedling tray seeding technology. Its air suction quantitative, seedling tray and seeding infrared positioning, suction nozzle blocking method, trough-type automatic watering and many other innovative technologies have solved manual seeding. The problem of unevenness achieves the precise seeding effect of seeding from gram to grain. According to research, the use of the hybrid rice precision seeder planting line can save farmers 1/3 of the seed cost and obtain a considerable benefit of more than 100 yuan per acre of land.

The combination of modern machinery and agriculture has not only realized the mechanized operation and efficient production of hybrid rice, but also laid the foundation for the future development of digital agriculture.
