Lovol compound seeder
In early August, in the transfer land of Xingyuan Agricultural Professional Cooperative in Zhucheng City, Shandong Province, expert Wang Fahong from the Shandong Academy of Agricultural Sciences was exchanging experiences with the cooperative leader Wang Pingping on large-scale land planting. The most fundamental way to achieve high yield is through the combination of good varieties and methods, as well as the integration of agricultural machinery and techniques, "Wang Fahong introduced.In the three summers of this year, our wheat field produced an average of 1287.3 kilograms per mu, achieving an increase of 15% -20%. This is the wheat yield "account book" of Wang Pingping's own plot. For this "ledger", Wang Pingping has a "clear understanding" in his heart.
Wang Pingping, 44 years old this year, is the head of Zhucheng Xingyuan Agricultural Professional Cooperative. Starting from 2018, Wang Pingping switched to the planting industry, starting with over 100 acres of land and now transferring over 1000 acres of land. In the process of expanding the scale of the cooperative, he increasingly realized that "scientific farming" is the trend. In the process of exploring scientific management, Wang Pingping gradually found modern and intelligent "new weapons".
At the beginning of farming, I lacked experience and used traditional small seeders. At that time, there was also a shortage of land, but now it has reached over a thousand acres. The efficiency of using small seeders is very slow. In order to increase production and income, I heard that large seeders have fast operating efficiency, but at the beginning, I was not very satisfied. I was afraid of missing seeds and the cost ratio was high, so I often went out to listen to expert lectures and training from the Agricultural Bureau. Experts often I recommend using a large seeder. I just wanted to give this Lovol drill a try, but I didn't dare to use it all in the first year. I planted a part of it, and then compared it to others. The results were indeed quite good, and the local people also highly recognized it Speaking of the experience of using a large seeder, Wang Pingping felt a lot.
After planting winter wheat last year, Wang Pingping went to the field as usual to check the emergence situation. "The seeds sown a few days ago had good germination rates and depths. They were basically around 3-4 centimeters, with a germination rate of over 90%. It is obvious that compared to a small seeder, an increase of one or two hundred kilograms per acre of land is no problem." After checking the emergence situation, Wang Pingping is full of hope for a bumper harvest next year.
Nowadays, with the validation of abundant data, Wang Pingping has tasted the sweetness of scientific farming and is familiar with the advantages of the Lovol multiple drill machine, There are many advantages to this seeder, as it can crush soil and tidy the seedbed in the front. After the plow is plowed, the rotary tiller needs to rotate it again, which eliminates the need for this machine. The second one is to press it before sowing, which is relatively loose after rotation, and use it to press it again to play a compaction role. After sowing, another press is also needed, which makes it difficult for the seeds and ground to lose moisture, resulting in an even emergence rate and strong seedlings. In addition to reducing costs, It can be said that the high-quality sowing effect has solidified the foundation for the next year's harvest.
In recent years, I have increasingly found that it is impossible to achieve large-scale planting through traditional methods, and it is necessary to achieve the integration of agricultural machinery and agronomy. In three to five years, we will strive to develop the cooperative to 3000 to 5000 acres, while driving the surrounding people to become rich. With the support of these "new weapons", Wang Pingping has become more determined on the path of new farmers to create wealth.
