Tractors at China ASEAN Expo

On September 16, the 19th China ASEAN Expo (hereinafter referred to as ASEAN Expo) and the China ASEAN Business and Investment Summit opened in Nanning, Guangxi.

In the Henan Image Exhibition Area of Nanning International Convention and Exhibition Center, the main venue of the East China International Expo, a silver driverless tractor attracted the attention of many visitors, who stopped in succession, put up various Poses in front of this "silver armor", and asked their partners to record this moment.
This is a pure electric driverless tractor of YTO.
According to Du Pengfei, an engineer of the National Agricultural Machinery and Equipment Innovation Center, this tractor is the first 5G+hydrogen fuel electric driverless tractor (real vehicle) in China, which was led by YTO. Through unmanned driving, remote control and other forms, it can sense the running state of the whole vehicle and the surrounding working environment in real time, meet the needs of plowing, rotary tillage, sowing and other operations, and effectively improve the reliability and efficiency of agricultural machinery operations.

While the visitors were still amazed at the driverless tractor, Yongfeng, a yam planter in Wen County, Jiaozuo, Henan Province, had applied modern agricultural machinery to the fields.

This spring, Yongfeng, a Chinese yam grower, started ditching and ridging with the "Dongfanghong" tractor produced by YTO. He said that since the installation of the auto drive system, the original headache of trenching and ridging has become easier.
As the birthplace of China's first tractor and the birthplace of agricultural machinery equipment technology and industry, YTO has contributed to China's agricultural machinery modernization and rural revitalization since its inception.
In particular, with the agricultural equipment moving towards unmanned and intelligent, intelligent agricultural machinery is of great significance to improve operating efficiency, increase farmers' income, help rural revitalization, and safeguard national food security.

"At present, the comprehensive mechanization rate of cultivation and harvest of the three major grain crops in China, wheat, corn and rice, has exceeded 97%, 90% and 85% respectively, and the contribution of agricultural machinery and equipment to grain yield and harvest has been significantly improved. Since its establishment in 1955, YTO has provided more than 3.6 million tractor pullers and more than 3.1 million power machines to the society, making outstanding contributions to China's" agriculture, rural areas and farmers "and new rural construction." The relevant responsible person of YTO said.

According to the data, as a major agricultural machinery province, the overall development level of Henan's agricultural machinery equipment industry is in the forefront of the country. Among them, harvesters and power machinery are at the leading level in China. With research and development platforms such as the National Agricultural Machinery Innovation Center and a number of competitive enterprises such as YTO and Henan Zoomlion, Henan has become an important agricultural machinery equipment production base in China.
The National Innovation Center for Agricultural Machinery and Equipment was officially inaugurated in September 2019. The Center gathers innovative resources such as YTO, Zoomlion, Tsinghua University, and the Institute of Computing of Chinese Academy of Sciences. Relying on Luoyang Intelligent Agricultural Equipment Research Institute Co., Ltd., it provides strong support for promoting the high-quality development of agricultural machinery and equipment.
On October 26, the General Office of the People's Government of Henan Province printed and distributed the Action Plan for Improving the Shortcomings of Agricultural Machinery and Equipment in Henan Province (2022-2025).

According to the Plan, we support leading enterprises in the industry chain such as China First Tow Co., Ltd. to give play to their technological advantages and take the lead in undertaking major national science and technology projects. Accelerate the cultivation of a number of "specialized, special and new" small and medium-sized enterprises that focus on market segmentation, main business, innovation ability and growth, and cultivate a number of national key "small giants" and single champion enterprises in the manufacturing industry.

As a leader in the agricultural machinery industry, how will YTO give play to its advantages to help agricultural modernization?

The relevant responsible person of YTO Corporation of China said that it would continue to increase its support for the National Agricultural Machinery and Equipment Innovation Center and the investment in the construction of innovation platforms such as the national key laboratory of tractor power system and the national enterprise technology center, and continue to optimize the research and development conditions. At the same time, we will actively participate in major national projects and play a greater role in improving food security and the overall level of agricultural mechanization.
YTO will also adhere to innovation driven, and increase its efforts to tackle key problems in terms of "inorganic availability", "no good machine use", "choke" technology, etc., to achieve independent and controllable key core technologies. We will focus on the R&D and manufacturing of high-end intelligent agricultural machinery and equipment and weak links in agricultural mechanization. Promote the R&D and manufacturing of high-end intelligent equipment such as high-power stepless transmission, power shift, hybrid tractor, efficient harvesting machinery, as well as the development and application of intelligent technologies such as unmanned driving, focus on the weak points of agricultural mechanization in hilly and mountainous areas and characteristic crops, carry out research and development of related products, and continue to maintain the two advantages of China First Tractor Group Co., Ltd. in technology and market, It will play its due role in accelerating the improvement of agricultural machinery and equipment and the source of original technology.

"YTO will give full play to its own equipment and technology advantages, play the role of chain length around the aspects of basic chain fixation, technology supplement, integration of strong chains, optimization of plastic chains, further develop and expand China's agricultural machinery equipment industry chain, and strive to ensure that China's tractor industry chain is independent, safe and controllable." The head of YTO said.
