Heilongjiang is taking advantage of its position in the big market of agricultural machinery to realize its ambition of promoting the localization of agricultural machinery manufacturing.
On October 28, Tan Xuguang, the head of Weichai Lovol's parent company, sent his troops northward, making the long rumored factory building in Heilongjiang a reality.
At 8 a.m. on the same day, Weichai Lovol Intelligent Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Weichai Lovol") held a signing activity for high-end intelligent agricultural machinery equipment project with Beidahuang Agricultural Reclamation Group in Jiamusi City. Relevant leaders of Heilongjiang Province, Jiamusi City, Beidahuang Agricultural Reclamation Group, Weichai Lovol Smart Agriculture and others participated in the signing activities.
Tan Xuguang and Yangmou: Fully replace imports
At the signing ceremony, Tan Xuguang smiled and shoveled earth with a group of local officials. The purpose of establishing the plant in Jiamusi is very clear, which is to promote the landing of domestic high-power tractors, large feed harvesters and other high-end intelligent agricultural machinery and equipment in Heilongjiang, and comprehensively replace the import.
At the same time, on this basis, we will expand agricultural socialized service business and lead the development model of smart agriculture. Weichai Lovol is a leading agricultural machinery enterprise, and Beidahuang Agricultural Reclamation Group is a modern agricultural production group.
Tan Xuguang said that the signing activity marked the deep integration of China's most advanced independent agricultural machinery enterprises and application scenarios, and was of great significance to the upgrading of China's agricultural machinery equipment industry and building a national modern agriculture demonstration zone.
Weichai Lovol is no stranger to Heilongjiang.
As early as December 2010, Heilongjiang Weichai Lovol Beidahuang Agricultural Equipment Co., Ltd. was incorporated. Its legal representative is Wang Guimin, and its registered capital is 20 million yuan. Its address is located in the north of Youyi Road, Songhuajiang Farm, Yilan County, Harbin, Heilongjiang Province.
However, this factory is only rebuilt on the basis of an old factory in the agricultural reclamation. The infrastructure and traffic location are general, which cannot meet the goal of high-end manufacturing. It is said that it mainly produces medium drag products. The foundation stone laying on October 28 was an attempt to build a high standard factory.
At 4:00 p.m. on March 11 this year, Tan Xuguang, a representative of the 13th National People's Congress, and the leaders of Jiamusi City and Beidahuang Agricultural Reclamation Group held a symposium in Beijing to discuss strategic cooperation. Wang Qiushi, Secretary of Jiamusi Municipal Party Committee, and Wang Shoucong, Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of Beidahuang Agricultural Reclamation Group, attended the meeting to promote Lovol to build a factory in Heilongjiang.
Heilongjiang is the land for agricultural machinery enterprises. It may be that Heilongjiang proposed to promote the rapid development of agricultural machinery and equipment manufacturing industry as early as the 13th Five Year Plan period.
Heilongjiang Agricultural Mechanization 13th Five Year Plan proposes to improve the agricultural machinery industrial structure, support the construction of agricultural machinery industrial parks, actively cultivate supporting enterprises, and improve the local supporting rate of enterprises. And make full use of the development opportunity of the "the Belt and Road" to accelerate the organic integration of the Internet, the Internet of Things and the agricultural machinery equipment manufacturing industry, create a good business environment for enterprises, strive to achieve prosperous production and sales of agricultural machinery equipment, and enhance the development potential of agricultural machinery manufacturing industry.
Wang Zhaoxian, Director of the Agriculture Office of the Heilongjiang Provincial Party Committee, Secretary of the Party Leadership Group and Director of the Provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, said that by the end of 2021, the province had 1.587 million tractors, including 87000 tractors of 100 horsepower and above, an increase of 335.6% over 2012; The total power of agricultural machinery was 68.88 million kilowatts, an increase of 51.2% over 2012; The comprehensive mechanization rate of crop cultivation and income has been stable at over 98%, ranking first in the country.
With the continuous development of high-end intelligent agricultural machinery, agricultural machinery has become the standard configuration of Heilongjiang agricultural modernization. The report of the 20th National Congress, which concluded not long ago, pointed out that we should strengthen the support of agricultural science and technology and equipment to ensure that Chinese people's jobs are firmly in their own hands. This will further promote the development of agricultural machinery stock market and incremental market in Heilongjiang, Inner Mongolia, Xinjiang and other places, and attract domestic and foreign agricultural machinery enterprises to compete.
At this year's two sessions of the National People's Congress, Wang Shoucong, deputy to the National People's Congress and chairman of Beidahuang Group, also called for the construction of a national high-end intelligent agricultural machinery equipment manufacturing and application demonstration zone in Heilongjiang Province.
Wang Shoucong said frankly that there is still a big gap between China's agricultural machinery products and developed countries in terms of some key core technologies, important parts and components, and major equipment. The R&D capability and product performance cannot meet the actual needs well. The agricultural machinery equipment industry level is not high, and some high-end machines and tools are mainly imported. He suggested that certain special policy support should be given to farmers to purchase and apply domestic high-end intelligent agricultural machinery and equipment, establish a demonstration base for agricultural machinery localization, and accelerate the replacement process of domestic high-end intelligent agricultural machinery.
One time, another time: China's agricultural machinery has accelerated its rise
According to insiders, Heilongjiang is the main battlefield of high-end agricultural machinery and the main position of foreign brands such as John Deere, AGCO, Kesnew Holland, Kubotian and Yangma. However, domestic brands including Weichai Lovol have not been deeply involved in the local market before.
This is due to both the product itself and the use habits of local users, as well as the guidance of local governments and many other factors. However, with the rise of Made in China, more and more domestic agricultural machinery such as Weichai Lovol has been selected by local users to compete with foreign brands such as John Deere.
Take John Deere R230 grain combine harvester as an example, the price of a single harvester is 620000 yuan (low configuration version), and similar competitors include Weichai Lovol GK120 with conventional configuration (dealers in Central Plains quoted about 490000 yuan) (including "Zibo Yafeng New Era" and other brands).
Zhang Zongyi, a young scientist who has been paying close attention to the agricultural equipment industry for a long time and a professor of the China Academy of Agricultural Equipment Industry Development of Jiangsu University, also believes that the level of agricultural equipment in China has been improved year by year. Compared with ten, twenty and thirty years ago, our changes are earth shaking.
There are still gaps. "Some are the problems that agricultural machinery is not coupled with cultivated land and agronomy (such as hilly and mountainous areas, soybean and corn belt compound planting), some are the problems that small farmers in large countries use equipment uneconomically (such as small farmers who feed ten ducks on an automatic feeding production line), and the rest are the problems that are inferior to people's skills." Zhang Zongyi said.
However, in the high-end market competition, who can win, obviously depends on the business rules and user choice.
"Commerce has its own commercial laws and rules. What users choose and don't choose should be their own spontaneous behavior. Of course, government departments should actively promote the development of domestic brands," said the insiders.
However, it is also pointed out that while protecting domestic brands, attention should be paid to international rules. After all, these foreign brands are produced in China and also belong to "domestic products". For example, government procurement allows the purchase of foreign brands produced in China, and these foreign brands are also defined as "domestic products". If we reject others blindly, we will also be excluded if we go out.
