Under limited land resources, the integration of the "Five Good" factors to promote yield improvement requires a comprehensive exploration of the potential for yield improvement. As a key player in the "good opportunity" stage, the performance and quality of the sowing machine not only directly affect the quality of wheat emergence and the final yield level, but also affect operational efficiency. During the "rush to plant" season, an excellent sowing machine can greatly improve crop yield and operational efficiency.
As the saying goes, '70% planting, 3% management'. In order to promote the improvement of sowing quality, Weichai Lovol Smart Agriculture has led the construction of the '655' high-yield demonstration field project since 2023. In six provinces including Shandong, Henan, Hebei, Shanxi, Anhui, and Shaanxi, 50 wheat producing counties have been selected, and 50 acres of demonstration fields have been established in each county. Under the same land and management conditions, compare the effectiveness of Weichai Lovol compound seeder and traditional seeder on site, and accelerate the popularization and application of high-performance and multifunctional compound seeders.
During the summer harvest period of 2024, the "655" high-yield demonstration field project will receive its first batch of results acceptance. To ensure the fairness of the production testing results, a production testing team composed of experts from various provinces and cities will conduct on-site inspections of the production testing process.
By testing the production of 10 randomly selected sample fields, Weichai Lovol's high-performance compound strip planter achieved a 15% increase in yield compared to traditional seeders, and the yield improvement effect was very significant.
Only when the foundation is firmly laid can the building be built higher. The same goes for crop sowing. From the perspective of technical application, exploring the reasons for increased production, Weichai Lovol's compound strip sowing machine uses the secondary compaction technology of soil leveling before sowing and double compaction after sowing can significantly enhance crop stress resistance, improve seedling emergence rate and uniformity, and effectively improve sowing quality; At the same time, it can complete multiple tasks such as soil crushing, loosening, leveling, pre sowing compaction, uniform strip sowing, and post sowing compaction in one go, thereby reducing soil compaction caused by repeated entry of machinery into the ground; The single unit imitation structure equipped with it can effectively improve the uniformity of sowing depth, ensuring uniform and strong seedlings.
The integration and application of a series of advanced technologies have provided the most suitable breeding ground for the robust growth of wheat seedlings, and have also turned the ideal of "planting 58 acres of grain on 50 acres of land" into a reality. Throughout the entire growth cycle of crops, Weichai Lovol compound strip seeders perform far better than traditional seeders in terms of crop emergence rate, tiller number, seedling strength, root system and other crop growth conditions. They have won high recognition from many large-scale growers and cooperatives, not only becoming a powerful guarantee for the harvest of new farmers, but also being honored as one of the top ten new technologies in China's agriculture and rural areas in 2023.
The use of Weichai Lovol compound strip sowing machines greatly improves operational efficiency, while reducing the amount of seeds used per mu and increasing the average yield per mu. The 'one decrease and one increase' is the increase in yield, especially for large-scale growers, the economic benefits are particularly significant
Transforming 'organic usable' into 'organic usable', allowing every inch of land to unleash its maximum production potential. The successful practice of Weichai Lovol high-performance seeder proves the enormous potential of technological innovation in the development of modern agriculture. The integrated application of high-performance seeders and advanced yield increasing modes continuously provides solid agricultural machinery support for achieving the goals of increasing grain production and farmers' income.
