Core reading
Gansu zhang yizawa county is a national hybrid maize seed production base from which 13 of every 100 maize seeds are produced throughout the country. Improving quality control mechanisms, promoting intelligent farming and extending industrial chains in recent years, there has been a proliferation of local efforts to modernize and modernize the cropping chain and to increase the dynamism of the industry。
Upon arrival on the watch desk, far from the qinan line, near the wano line, 5,000 acres of a demonstration base for maize planting in hinchuan town, zhang xuan city, gansu province, was opened。
After the summer, after a busy day, the village of hirukawa, the village of hirukawa, increased its cultivation this year by growing 170 acres of maize, “to cultivate machinery, secure earnings, much more and much more.”
As a national seed production base for mixed maize, 13 of every 100 maize seeds in the country are produced from permafrost. “60 per cent of the arable land in the county is used for maize farming and 60 per cent of farmers are engaged in maize farming.” according to the secretary-general, zhang fai, the value of local maize production exceeded $2. 5 billion last year。
The whole process, the yellow stick, produces the golden seed
Growing in the south, growing in the plain. “for 11 years, we have grown more than 80 new varieties of maize in piedzer, which are being replicated everywhere.” presentation by peng qingtae, managing director, gansu yun fong。
For each new maize species, the state has strict criteria for indicators such as growth rate, purity, etc., which do not allow for replication. “the growth rate and purity of 85 per cent and 97 per cent respectively, as well as the number of maize varieties that have been validated at the national or provincial levels, have been able to expand in pisawa.” according to yang ping, deputy director of the seed administration of iozawa county。
Five hundred square metres of testing room, 321 detection devices, and approximately 3,000 samples of seeds are tested each year... Enter the seed quality monitoring and testing centre (hereinafter referred to as the “testing centre”) at zhang zhang zhang state corn seed production base in pize county. Several staff members in white scavengers are fully focused on a precision exercise - pure testing of maize seeds。
It is encouraging to note that the growth and purity of the expanding maize varieties of impregnated corn have reached double-litres: 94 per cent and 98 per cent。
“first of all, the natural endowment of kamawa.” according to yang ping, the northern border of the badangilin desert and the southern neighbour of the qinshan mountains is known as the “natural corn seed production workshop”. The maize growing season coincides with the abundance of snow and ice in the mountains, with abundant light and high temperature during the day and night, which contributes to the accumulation of organic matter; the harvest season is dry, air is flowing fast, and naturally drys up. Seeds produced under such conditions, gerontivity, purity, etc., exceed national quality standards。
“the good breeds are even more important in the day after tomorrow.” lee tao, director of operations, inspection centre, stated that in order to ensure that the “yellow stick” produced “gold seeds”, inspectors were required to conduct in-depth ground tests during the pollination and harvesting of maize。
In the case of maize seed authenticity tests, the plant must produce the species declared by the manufacturer. In order to prevent the phenomenon of “showing dog meat with sheep”, “the testing centres have been able to perform scientific identification and accurate identification by interconnecting with the national dna standard fingerprint database of crop varieties”. Lee tao said that in may 2022, the centre had access to a national large-scale data platform on crop varieties, where units and individuals had access to testing reports of required seeds。
At the same time, the maize seeds produced in pengzawa hold “identity cards” and are traced from base to market.” to date, 7 town trace points and 31 production bases have been completed.” yang ping stated that since 2017, a total of 16 offences involving various types of offences had been detected in pize county and two disputes over the quality of seed production had been resolved。
The county has explored the development of a satellite remote sensing seeding base, using remote sensing resources, drones, field personnel scrutinisation, etc., to build a network of maize breeding bases “integrally integrated sky” to provide for the safety of each maize seed。
Intelligent breeds, good breeding combinations, agronomic integration
“in previous years, some farmers felt that maize cultivation was inefficient and that they were reluctant to replant.” xiehu stated that crop yields were decreasing as a result of years of cultivation, soil degradation and increased labour costs。
"the key to making more people want to grow isScience and technology innovation"yang ping says. In recent years, an average of more than 600 soil samples have been tested annually, leading to soil fertilization of 105,000 acres. At the same time, a team of experts was formed to promote the use of condensed bioorganic fertilizers in the production of maize in response to local soil characteristics。
Peaked barstone is a water-rich aluminium silicate mineral with a sticky crystal structure, and pinezawa has discovered 60 per cent of the world's detected reserves. The production of organic fertilizers for raw materials, after scientific research, increases soil organic matter, removes clinkers and effectively addresses problems such as the production of maize connections. "when organic fertilizer is applied, it feels like it's strong." he says。
Decuo is a critical step in the cultivation of maize, related to poor seeds and food harvests. The so-called male is the removal of the male corn and the promotion of female growth and the development of maize seed. In the past, kanzawa relied mainly on manual work and had to be completed within one week, with high intensity, cost and efficiency. “the wage of $400 a day during the peak period is still a hard job.” shangjun, the head of a seeding enterprise in peizawa county, said that operational efficiency had now improved significantly by introducing a male jet, which could operate more than 100 acres a day, equivalent to the workload of more than 200 people a day。
“the high efficiency of the agricultural process, but the high level of investment and the unaffordability of small farmers require social services.” pan zhen, head of the agricultural development company of tianbao, inzawa county, said that the company was a village collective enterprise and a data platform for farming in hinchuan town, with more than 180 farm tools, linked to 28 social service organizations, and a large number of farm farms, “we combine supply and demand information, and rational `shows', for example, to farm land, all of which are in rural areas
The application of the beidou navigation system unmanned sowing machine will allow for the integration of film, fertilization and sowing operations; protection drones will complete the care of more than 40 acres in one hour. To date, the rate of integrated mechanization of local maize cropping has reached 80 per cent。
In order to further improve the level of industrial development, izei's project for the construction of high-standard agricultural land is linked by standardization, size, intensification, mechanization and information, with a view to integrating good varieties and agro-industries. To date, 2076 million acres of integrated, high-standard agricultural land and 183,000 acres of maize-based “five” have been built in pize county。
Longer chains, growing industries
The impregnation industry has developed for more than 40 years, and there have been “challenges” of growing up — many — with mixed power, diverse seed quality and problems of “big and poor”。
In order to solve the problem of “big but poor” , peng zai zhang gave priority to quality base-based conservation of niche enterprises, based on the zhang zhang zhang national scheme for the competitive allocation of quality base resources。
“countries shall be `ranked' on the basis of, inter alia, enterprise production and business self-regulation indicators.” yang ping, who is well qualified, has a high-quality base, which is distributed in order of priority, and has made information publicly available。
Research and development and sales from the plant base have transformed a good seed into a good one and a good one into a good one, and it has spread it to the north and south of the river. “in the past year, the size of the plant has increased by 10,000 acres, effectively meeting the demand for production, with an annual production value of $420 million.”。
With competition in mind, inzawa has attracted 18 well-known seed-making enterprises, 3 seed-scale enterprises above, 1 integrated plant, 14 modern processing centres and 24 processing production lines, with an annual capacity of 250,000 tons。
Competition also accelerates regional collaboration by raising the profile of enterprises. The towns of hinchuan, slate bridge, quizumi and duck warm along the black river are the largest maize-growing towns. In the past, the four townships have collaborated in the formation of a party committee for the production of maize ploughs to break administrative barriers, optimize resource allocation and share information and tools。
Producing and breeding new varieties, growing longer than perceptible maize seeds, are spreading throughout the country from the western corridor. (reporter wang jintao)
