Agricultural modernization is in urgent need of agricultural machinery transformation

As a large country with a population of 1.3 billion, the important position of agriculture is self-evident. Due to factors such as rising population rigidity and consumption escalation, domestic food consumption in recent years has continued to grow at an average annual rate of 3-4%. The increase in domestic grain production has been unable to meet strong consumer demand. According to statistics, the external dependence of China's grain has increased from 7.2% in 2008 to 12% last year, of which the total amount of imported grain has reached 8.02 million tons, and the production capacity of domestic grain needs to be rapidly increased. In addition, with the development of urbanization, the rural population gradually migrates to cities, the rural surplus labor force decreases year by year, and the number of peasant households engaged in pure grain planting is also decreasing, which leads to outstanding food supply contradictions.

Agricultural machinery is the material basis of modern agriculture and a sign of agricultural modernization. Agricultural machinery has played an important role in reducing labor intensity, increasing farmers' willingness to grow grain, stabilizing grain production, increasing production, and increasing income. The increase in the level of agricultural mechanization has become increasingly important for modern agricultural production. The severe task of the future increase of the per mu output on the current high base will inevitably push forward the large-scale promotion of advanced agricultural machinery and the continuous upgrading of the entire agricultural machinery industry. Large-scale, high-end agricultural machinery and equipment will also become the main force for future demand.
