Tian Chou dyes new green, and farming is busy. Now it is spring ploughing and spring pipe season. In the fields, farmers are busy everywhere.

Spring ploughing, agricultural machinery first. At present, more and more scientific and technological elements are gathered in the field. In Xing'an District, Hegang, Heilongjiang Province, an unmanned modern high-power agricultural machine shuttles through the fields through the Beidou navigation positioning system to rake the land; In Houying Village, Xiongji Town, Zaoyang, Hubei Province, farmers skillfully operate an unmanned plant protection machine with 100 kg of fertilizer to shuttle back and forth over the wheat field for fertilization operations... A series of intelligent agricultural machinery and equipment with high degree of automation and strong precision operation ability, such as the Beidou navigation plow running on the ground and the UAV flying in the air, have come into play, becoming good helpers for farmers to grow grain. It is predicted that there will be more than 23 million tractors, land preparation machines, seeders, rice transplanters and other agricultural machinery and equipment put into production this spring. Advanced agricultural machinery and equipment not only greatly improve the efficiency of agricultural production, reduce production costs, but also reduce the labor intensity of farmers, which is an important guarantee for the continuous harvest of grain.

Talents are the key to prosper and strengthen agriculture. "Do more" and "do more quickly" are the mantra of most agricultural technicians. Since the beginning of spring this year, nearly 250000 agricultural technicians have gone to the fields. "According to the previous use of chemical fertilizers, we need to buy 50 tons of chemical fertilizers. This year, under the guidance of agricultural technicians, we bought 16% less chemical fertilizers." The vast number of agricultural technicians went out of the laboratory, went deep into the front line, and raced against time in the field. They carried out door-to-door service of delivering technology, focused on various "difficult and miscellaneous diseases", on-site "sit in", and accurately "unveiled the list". Through face-to-face teaching and hand to hand teaching, they not only helped farmers to increase income and reduce expenditure in production, but also solved countless problems, and practically improved farmers' knowledge, skills and level of scientific farming. Practice has proved that the vast number of agricultural technicians, starting from the vital interests of farmers, stand in the position of farmers to think about problems and solve problems for farmers, will be able to produce flowers of prosperity and fruits of harvest in the field.

Today, agricultural production has gradually said goodbye to "relying on the weather". Whether farmers master various "new farm tools" or master and use agricultural science and technology knowledge, the main body is farmers. This requires that the majority of farmers have certain scientific and technological literacy to meet the innovative requirements of modern agricultural production and development, which is a process of learning to apply. All regions and departments should take different methods to provide all-round and diversified scientific and technological training in a timely manner in combination with the actual situation. At the same time, various agricultural scientific and technological knowledge should be released in time through the network platform. In fact, many regions have already begun to fully implement the precision training model of farmers' "ordering", training institutions' "side dishes", and experts' "serving". To show the farmers, lead them to work, stimulate their enthusiasm, initiative and creativity, realize the transformation from "I want to learn" to "I want to learn", truly let farmers learn the practical technology they want to own, and take on the "golden shoulder pole" of increasing income and wealth through science and technology.

This year's No. 1 Document of the Central Committee proposed to strengthen the dual wheel drive of science and technology and reform, so as to speed up the modernization of agriculture and rural areas and better promote the construction of Chinese style modernization. To pick the "golden pole" of science and technology, we must store food on the ground, store food in technology, and firmly grasp the initiative of food security, so that we can move forward steadily on the road of rich granaries and food security.
