“Xiao Ai, how is the cotton yield you two planted this year?” On November 19, during the cotton sales time, Li Hailong, a cotton farmer in Daxi Village, Xingping Town, Yuli County, came to the “super cotton field” at the head of the village to learn about Cotton yields in cotton fields this year.
When he learned that the “super cotton field” planted and managed by Ai Haipeng and Ling Lei had a cotton yield of more than 400 kilograms per mu, Li Hailong was pleasantly surprised. He asked the two young men to tell him about the cotton field in detail. Every “black technology” in it.
From the saline-alkali flats and sparsely populated “Sanyao Village” to the famous “Star Village”, the villagers of Daxi Village are unwilling to admit defeat on the road to growing cotton. The cotton planting area in Daxi Village is 58,000 acres. Cotton field planting management has changed from the traditional artificial planting model many years ago to the mechanized model today, and agricultural production technology is constantly updated. When the country’s first “super cotton field” project of 3,000 acres planted and managed by two people was launched in Daxi Village, it immediately became the focus of attention of the villagers.
“Intelligent management has remarkable effects in reducing costs, improving quality and increasing efficiency. The villagers are very interested and take the initiative to study in the ‘Super Cotton Field’.” Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee of Xingping Town and Party Committee of Daxi Village Secretary Guzanur Maimaiti said that we must make good use of the unmanned management of “super cotton fields” as a living teaching material around us, and encourage and guide cotton farmers to use high technology to obtain more income.
Li Yongqian, a big farmer in Daxi Village, has planted 500 acres of cotton fields. What troubles him most is the cotton sowing and emergence periods. Strong winds will blow over the mulch and dry the cotton seedlings, causing a reduction in production. After learning that the “Super Cotton Field” had achieved stable production using the “separated cotton and wheat sowing” windproof cultivation technology, Li Yongqian quickly tried it.
“Sowing wheat with film in mid-March, and then sowing cotton in early April. At this time, the wheat has grown to more than 10 cm, becoming a natural ‘windbreak’ for cotton seedlings to resist wind and cold in the early stages of growth. Through this According to different planting methods, this year, my cotton yield per mu exceeds 400 kilograms.” Li Yongqian said.
Like Li Yongqian, after inspection, Bai Lijun, a veteran cotton farmer, began to learn the unmanned management model and experience farming on the palm of his hand. Bai Lijun contracted 800 acres of cotton fields in Daxi Village. After the “Super Cotton Field” project was launched, he changed from initial skepticism to following suit.
After the cotton harvest, Bai Lijun made a calculation: “During the planting management process, we saved hundreds of thousands of yuan in expenses, and also reduced the amount of water, fertilizer and pesticides. Compared with previous years, the cost per mu was reduced by 200 yuan. “Next year I plan to use intelligent water and fertilizer integration technology to grow cotton, manage it more scientifically and accurately, and continue to reduce planting costs. I believe that with the series of rural revitalization arrangements arranged by the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, With the implementation of the policy, our income will become higher and higher, and our lives will become more and more beautiful.” Bai Lijun is full of confidence in the future.
Today, more and more villagers in Daxi Village are interested in new agricultural technologies. Villager Ablikmu Musa said: “My family has been growing cotton for generations and has always followed the traditional method. When we are busy every year, our family of five all works in the fields. On good days, we can earn 70,000 to 80,000 yuan a year. I have learned new skills. With technology, growing cotton is not tiring, and the income is higher.”
Villager Wusman Nurula’s family has planted 257 acres of cotton and is expected to earn about 400,000 yuan this year. He said that if the “super cotton field” planting and management model is used, the income can be even higher, and he will try it next year.
Guzainur Maimaiti said that we must lead the villagers to fully promote agricultural modernization, digitalization, and intelligence, so that the villagers of Daxi Village will always have “bulging pockets and bright spirits.”
