Top Level Development Plan for Agricultural Machinery in The Next 5 Years: Promote The Industrial Application of Tractors with 400 Horsepower And Above, And Create New Energy Agricultural Machinery Wi

Agricultural Machinery Magazine, June 2nd - Recently, the State Council issued the "15th Five Year Plan for Accelerating Agricultural and Rural Modernization" (hereinafter referred to as the "Plan"), which clarifies the ideas, goals, key tasks, and policy measures for accelerating agricultural modernization during the "15th Five Year Plan" period. The Plan has arranged seven development tasks. One is to enhance the comprehensive production capacity and quality efficiency of agriculture, adhere to the joint efforts of production capacity, production ecology, and increasing production and income, and promote the optimization of agricultural product supply structure and the improvement of quality and efficiency. Secondly, we will continue to consolidate and expand the achievements of poverty alleviation, ensuring that there is no large-scale return to poverty. Thirdly, we will strengthen agricultural technology and equipment support, and make significant breakthroughs in developing new quality agricultural productivity. The fourth is to broaden the channels for farmers to increase their income and become prosperous, cultivate and strengthen rural characteristic industries, and make every effort to promote employment, entrepreneurship, and income growth. Fifth, accelerate the comprehensive green transformation of agricultural development and promote green production methods in agriculture. Sixth, we will promote the construction of livable, business friendly, and beautiful rural areas, gradually improve the completeness of rural infrastructure, the convenience of public services, and the comfort of living environments, and create high-quality living spaces in rural areas. Seventh, we will improve the effectiveness of policies to strengthen agriculture, benefit agriculture, and enrich agriculture, perfect the mechanism for agricultural and rural investment, solidly promote rural reform, and develop and strengthen the rural talent pool. Some of the content is directly related to agricultural machinery, while others involve the development of agricultural machinery. During the 15th Five Year Plan period, the main indicators for accelerating agricultural and rural modernization are proposed to increase the comprehensive mechanization rate of crop cultivation and harvesting from 76.7% in 2025 to over 80% by 2030. The third part of the plan proposes the creation and application of advanced and applicable agricultural machinery and equipment. Promote the research and application of high-end intelligent agricultural machinery and equipment suitable for hilly and mountainous areas. Classify and cultivate leading enterprises in the field of agricultural machinery and equipment, single champion enterprises in the manufacturing industry, specialized and innovative small and medium-sized enterprises, support enterprises to strengthen production line technology transformation, accelerate digital transformation, and build advanced manufacturing clusters and characteristic industrial clusters for small and medium-sized enterprises in the field of agricultural machinery and equipment. Systematically promote the research and development of new energy agricultural machinery equipment technology, industrial collaboration, and infrastructure construction. Orderly promote the development of low altitude economy in agriculture and rural areas. Strengthen the independent research and development of modern facility agriculture equipment, and promote the upgrading and transformation of old facilities in a classified and orderly manner. Implement subsidies for the purchase and application of agricultural machinery, including "excellent machinery and subsidies", "both in and out", and scrapping and updating old agricultural machinery. Promote the application of artificial intelligence and the development of smart agriculture. Accelerate innovation in agricultural artificial intelligence technology, expand application scenarios, and create an industrial ecosystem. Coordinate the deployment of agricultural and rural data infrastructure, construct large-scale, multimodal, and high-quality datasets, improve data standards and norms, and develop digital government services and data industries in the agricultural and rural fields. Accelerate the research and development of software and hardware products with independent intellectual property rights, and enhance computing power capabilities. Establish a comprehensive sky ground integrated agricultural observation network. Deeply tap into the digital productivity of agriculture and rural areas, and guide various entities to accelerate the digital upgrading of agriculture. The second part of the plan proposes to enhance the supply guarantee capacity of important agricultural products such as grain. Adhere to the joint efforts of production capacity, production ecology, and increasing production and income, deeply implement the strategy of storing grain in the land and in technology, intensify the implementation of a new round of action to increase grain production capacity by billions of kilograms, promote the large-scale increase in yield of major crops such as grain and oil, and promote the integration of good fields, good seeds, and good methods to increase efficiency. Improve the long-term mechanism of supporting the development of the soybean industry throughout the entire chain. Establish a sound mechanism for ensuring the income of grain farmers and compensating for the interests of major grain producing areas, strengthen policy support and coordination such as pricing, subsidies, and insurance, implement inter provincial horizontal interest compensation for grain production and sales areas, and promote the prices of important agricultural products such as grain to remain at a reasonable level. Improve the fertilizer reserve system. Strengthen the management of grain purchase, sales, and reserves, and promote the improvement of grain circulation quality and efficiency. Strengthen the production of high-quality cotton in Xinjiang, improve the quality and mechanization level of sugar crops, and promote the renovation of old natural rubber plantations. Improve the comprehensive regulation mechanism of pig production capacity, promote cost saving, quality improvement and efficiency enhancement in livestock and poultry breeding, accelerate the development of forage industry, promote the transformation and upgrading of grassland animal husbandry, and enhance the competitiveness of dairy industry. Solidly carry out the Fourth National Agricultural Census. Strengthen the protection and quality improvement of arable land. Implement the strictest farmland protection system, coordinate the optimization of agricultural land layout, strictly manage the balance between occupation and compensation, and standardize the quality acceptance of supplementary farmland. Promote high-quality construction of high standard farmland through zoning and classification, improve the mechanisms for project initiation, construction, acceptance, and management, and establish a sound engineering quality supervision system based on the project legal person responsibility system. Strengthen the modernization construction and renovation of large and medium-sized irrigation areas, and enhance the connection between high standard farmland canal systems and irrigation area backbone projects. Implement a new round of black soil protection projects, increase the organic matter content of arable land, strengthen the management of acidified arable land, and steadily promote the comprehensive utilization of saline alkali land. Comprehensively enhance agricultural disaster prevention, reduction, and relief capabilities. Develop resilient agriculture and improve the accuracy of monitoring, forecasting, and early warning of meteorological, hydrological, and geological disasters. Strengthen the construction of flood control, drainage, and drought resistance facilities, and continue to carry out the restoration and improvement of farmland ditches, as well as the management of small and medium-sized rivers and plain flood prone areas. Improve the conditions for emergency disaster relief facilities and equipment for agricultural machinery, improve the configuration of disaster relief equipment and emergency call mechanisms, and accelerate the filling of shortcomings in facilities and equipment such as drying and storage. Strengthen the unified prevention and control of pests and diseases, as well as the joint prevention and control of major animal diseases. Enhance the intrinsic safety level of fisheries.
