The development of "smart agriculture" in Anhui is in its infancy

At present, Anhui agriculture is in the transition stage from traditional agriculture to modern agriculture. The development of “smart agriculture” is of great significance for cultivating new economic growth points and promoting the transformation and upgrading of agriculture in the province.

Development status and problems

“Smart Agriculture” is the stage of agricultural production. It integrates emerging Internet, cloud computing and Internet of Things technologies. It relies on various sensor nodes and communication networks deployed at agricultural production sites to realize intelligent awareness and intelligent warning of agricultural production environment. , intelligent decision-making, intelligent analysis, expert online guidance, provide chemical planting, visual management, and intelligent decision-making for agricultural production.

In recent years, Anhui has adhered to the concept of innovation, coordination, green, openness, and shared development, and achieved certain results in developing “smart agriculture”. First, positive progress has been made in the demonstration of agricultural Internet of Things. In 2012, Anhui began to implement the Agricultural Internet of Things project. In 2013, it was identified by the Ministry of Agriculture as the National Agricultural IoT Regional Engineering Experimental Zone. In the past few years, focusing on the production of Daejeon, and driven by “Internet modern agriculture”, the new agricultural operation main body has been applied to apply agricultural Internet of Things technology to improve the level of agricultural production, management, management and service.

At present, the province has established 29 provincial-level agricultural Internet of Things demonstration counties, 103 demonstration sites, and 423 new agricultural management entities for agricultural Internet of Things construction, covering plantation, animal husbandry, fishery, agricultural machinery and processing. Second, the development of agricultural e-commerce is rapid. In the second half of 2014, Anhui launched the “1112” demonstration campaign for agricultural products in the national agricultural system, and the rapid development of agricultural products e-commerce. According to the monitoring, the province has carried out 974 new agricultural operation entities for agricultural products e-commerce marketing. In 2015, the transaction volume reached 17.6 billion yuan. A group of characteristic agricultural products e-commerce enterprises represented by three squirrels in Wuhu, Hefei, Huangshan Xie Yuda, Lu'an three farmers, and Zhangzhou Alibaba's special pavilion have emerged. The third is to explore the use of existing agricultural data resources, build Anhui Agricultural Big Data Center, promote the automatic data collection, network transmission, standardization processing and visualization, and realize the sharing of agricultural resource elements data for governments, enterprises and farmers at all levels. Agricultural resource data query service.

Although Anhui “smart agriculture” has achieved certain results in its steady progress, it is still in its infancy in general. The main problems are: some bases and enterprises have a good pilot effect, but most of the bases are government demonstration projects. In the innovative agricultural IoT business model, efforts are still needed in the agricultural enterprise, the Internet of Things enterprises, and the majority of farmers. The level of sexual intelligence management needs to be improved; the cost of operation and maintenance of enterprises is high, and it is difficult to obtain expected economic benefits in the short term; farmers are still unfamiliar with new technologies such as Internet of Things and cloud computing, and the concept has yet to be changed; rural Internet infrastructure construction is still It is weak, and the “last mile” covered by fiber-optic households has not yet been smoothed. Due to factors such as traffic conditions and lack of talents, the construction of vast rural logistics infrastructure and Internet public service platforms is far from meeting the requirements. In addition, large-scale Internet retail enterprises tend to pay great attention to “consumer goods going to the countryside”, while the implementation of “agricultural products into the city” is relatively lagging behind.

Development ideas and countermeasures

Under the new normal, "smart agriculture" is a powerful accelerator for modern agricultural construction, which is conducive to promoting agricultural informatization, improving agricultural management, ensuring the safety of agricultural products and food, and promoting the rapid penetration of agricultural resources, production, science and technology into rural areas. The first line effectively solves the problems of blind production caused by information asymmetry and slow sales of agricultural products.

The development of "smart agriculture" is a huge systematic project that requires comprehensive measures to advance. First of all, we must pay close attention to accelerating the promotion of modern ecological agriculture industrialization, and vigorously promote the "Internet modern agriculture" initiative, focus on upgrading traditional agriculture, and further enhance the comprehensive agricultural production capacity. To play a demonstration role, relying on agricultural parks, leading enterprises, farmer cooperatives, etc. to build some demonstration bases, so that farmers can see for themselves and compare the benefits of “smart agriculture”; adopt the model of “introducing drivers and attracting investment”. Introduce strategic partners to jointly popularize “smart agriculture” and promote the awareness of various types of agricultural operators.

Second, we must do a top-level design, develop clear action plans, break through departmental, industry boundaries, and institutional barriers, and make full use of various infrastructure and information platform resources to achieve infrastructure co-construction, information resource sharing, and information system interconnection. Collaborate on business collaboration to avoid duplication of construction and waste of resources. Enhance the ability of information technology innovation for agriculture and rural services, and promote agricultural quality and efficiency, energy conservation and consumption reduction. Third, we must further promote the popularization of information technology infrastructure such as mobile communications, broadband, computers, and smart phones in rural areas, realize the full coverage of optical fiber to farmers, and further reduce the information tariff standards, so that the majority of farmers are willing to use, affordable, and effective. . Through talent introduction policies and treatment implementation mechanisms, attracting experts, scholars, and college graduates to participate in the construction of “smart agriculture”.

In terms of specific measures, it is necessary to carry out the following tasks in accordance with the requirements of the “Implementation Plan for Accelerating the Implementation of the “Internet” Action by Anhui Province”: Implementing the Special Action for Agricultural Internet of Things Demonstration, Promoting the Upgrade of Daejeon IoT Regional Project, and Promoting New Types The agricultural business entity demonstrates the application of the Internet of Things technology, accelerates the application of the Internet of Things technology in the field of agricultural product processing; implements the agricultural e-commerce demonstration special action, fosters the agricultural e-commerce integrated platform, the agricultural product wholesale market and the demonstration application of the origin market information, promotes one two three Industrial integration; implementation of agricultural product brand quality traceability special actions, construction of agricultural product quality traceability system; implementation of information into the village household special action, speed up the information into the village to pilot the province construction, explore the establishment of sustainable operation mechanism; implementation of agricultural information comprehensive service system Construct special actions to strengthen the comprehensive information service function of agriculture; implement special actions for the construction of agricultural and rural big data projects, build provincial-level agricultural and rural big data centers; implement special actions for agricultural informationization knowledge update training, and strengthen professional talent teams Construction. At the same time, actively promote agricultural e-commerce poverty alleviation work, integrate agricultural e-commerce into the poverty alleviation and development work system, inject agricultural e-commerce genes, innovate poverty alleviation development methods, and enhance the overall effect of poverty alleviation.
