"Chinese granary" Heilongjiang ranks first in the country in total grain output

At the end of December, Heilongjiang was covered in silver and driped into ice. However, a message from the black land is like a warm current in winter, which deeply warms the hearts of the people of the country: this year, Heilongjiang’s grain production has won another great harvest, achieving “eight consecutive years”, and the total grain output has reached a record. The 111.41 billion kilograms of which was an increase of 11.15 billion kilograms over the previous year. The increase accounted for 22.6% of the national grain increase. The total output surpassed that of Henan to rank first in the country.

This result gathers sweat. “People work hard and help the day, and the policy brings in a good harvest.” Ji Bingxuan, secretary of the Heilongjiang Provincial Party Committee, said. This year's meteorological conditions are good, providing a rare “time of day” for food growth. The whole province of Heilongjiang mobilizes from top to bottom, through vigorous efforts to implement stable grain production and increase production, fully implement the policy of strengthening agriculture and benefiting farmers, adjust and optimize planting structure, and strengthen infrastructure construction. Agricultural science and technology support, efforts to prevent and control various types of disasters, the advantages of black land into a real food production.

Such achievements are of great significance. Maintaining a steady 100-billion-pound steps at a high starting point and achieving a new historical breakthrough, Heilongjiang can use one-tenth of the country’s arable land, produce 1/4 of the country’s grain, and feed the country’s population by 1/6th. The effective material supply, the management of inflation expectations and the suppression of excessive price increases have laid an important material basis and provided strong support for maintaining stable and rapid economic development and maintaining overall social harmony and stability.

In recent years, Heilongjiang's grain production has continuously achieved leapfrog development. On the basis of a total grain output of 69.26 billion kilograms in 2007, it has continuously exceeded 80 billion kilograms, 90 billion kilograms, 100 billion kilograms, and 110 billion kilograms in four steps, with an average annual increase. It reached 12.6%. In the early morning when the sun was first welcomed into the motherland, a reliable "grand barn of China" was becoming a reality.

Large water conservancy facilities and large-scale water conservancy facilities significantly improve the ability of agriculture to fight drought and eliminate crops, providing strong support for continued grain production. Water conservancy is the lifeblood of agriculture, and it is the basic support for ensuring high-yield and stable grain production. Heilongjiang is rich in water resources. However, due to lagging water conservancy projects over the years, water resources have not been fully utilized. 70% of cultivated land still belongs to middle and low-yielding fields, which seriously restricts grain production.

Water rejuvenation can make agriculture flourish. It is an urgent need and realistic choice for Heilongjiang people to make good use of this large article of water resources, carry out large-scale water conservancy facilities, develop large-scale water conservancy facilities, improve the ability of drought-reducing crops, and increase the overall grain production capacity.

"With the Dongfeng on the No. 1 document of the Central Government, Heilongjiang's water conservancy construction will usher in spring." The Deputy Director of the Provincial Department of Water Resources, Ruan Xinping, said that in the past three years, Heilongjiang Daxing farmland water conservancy construction has been continuously and largely tilted toward irrigation and water conservancy construction. In particular, this year, the province's investment in water conservancy construction reached 15.7 billion yuan, focusing on the construction of five irrigated areas in the Songnen Plains of the West and 14 large- and medium-sized irrigation areas in the Sanjiang Plain in the east, greatly enhancing water resources support capabilities. The continuous increase in grain production provided strong support.

December 22, Nehe City. Although the temperature has dropped to minus 30 degrees Celsius, the construction site for the extension of the backbone project is still in full swing. “We are seizing the construction period in winter and accelerating the pace of project construction, and strive to benefit more ordinary people as soon as possible.” Sun Wei, Director of the Nennerial Construction Administration Bureau, said that the project consists of the Beiying Project and the Zhong cited Project. Greatly improving the fragile ecological environment in the low plains of the Songnen Plain and relieving the contradiction between the supply and demand of water resources in the western part of Heilongjiang Province are of great significance to ensuring food security.

Although the project is still under construction, part of the intake of Beiyin has begun to play its role, and the actual amount of water supply has increased by more than 100 million cubic meters. The industrial and agricultural production and the people’s lives in the downstream regions will benefit from this. Wang Shuchun, the branch secretary of Fuxing Village in Dongxing Township, Lindian County, vividly stated: “The Beiyinhe River is a rich river. With the help of its development of paddy fields, the village’s days are getting richer.” The original Fuxing Village was a saline-alkali land and Qiangtang. In the past few years, the village began to change paddy fields to paddy fields, but due to the limited amount of water, it is difficult to promote them. With the significant increase in water quantity from the north, the village's 8000 mu of land has been converted from paddy fields to paddy fields. The average yield per mu has reached 1200 kg or more, and the mu income has increased to 1,400 yuan. "In the past two years, the entire village has increased its grain output by 20 million kilograms."

Heilongjiang's water conservancy construction not only has a "big handwriting", but also "detailed work." In view of the unequal distribution of water resources in time and space, the province has actively carried out high-efficiency water-saving projects and introduced a variety of water-saving irrigation models: large-scale production of agricultural systems to promote large-scale sprinkler irrigation; single-planted crop fields implement reeling Sprinkler irrigation; water source conditions are good, the use of the foundation of the joint households to carry out pipe-type sprinkler irrigation; corn cultivation plots in western arid areas to develop drip irrigation under the membrane.

“In the past, the “Little White Dragon” had been used for flood irrigation, and 15 acres of land had to be filled for several days, and if the water level was low, it would not be able to pump up.” Zhang Zhenfeng, a farmer in Xinjian Village, Shengping Town, Anda City, said that since drip irrigation under the membrane was used, water was used. The volume has been reduced to 1/7 of the original, but production has increased substantially. Up till now, the water-saving irrigation area in dry fields in Heilongjiang Province has reached 20.05 million mu, and the controlled irrigation area in paddy fields has reached 1.68 million mu, which has significantly increased the capacity for water conservation and drought protection for farmland.

The large horsepower machinery took advantage of the black soil, improved soil cultivation conditions, and effectively improved land productivity, resource utilization, and labor productivity. Thanks to the use of large farm machinery, this year's crop will have such a good harvest. It is a big horsepower that brought me "Farge harvest", talking about the reasons for the dramatic increase in grain production this year, Wang Yidong, farmer in Yilaha Town, Nenjiang County, was grateful for his words. "Previously using 'small four-wheeled' farming, the output was very low. This year it used large agricultural machinery and reached deeper levels. Forty centimeters, the land's water storage capacity has been greatly enhanced, which is equivalent to building a 'soil reservoir'. The yield of corn in one area has increased from 5 tons to more than 9 tons."

Heilongjiang's fertile land, flat terrain, and contiguous continuum are ideal for large-scale agricultural operations. But for a long time, the development of large-scale agricultural machinery has been obviously inadequate. Large-scale machinery above 80 hp has only 2.6%. The large-scale use of the “small four-wheeled wheels” has made the plough bottom layer harder and harder, and the ability of the soil to retain water and protect drought has declined, seriously affecting the improvement of grain production capacity.

To develop modern agriculture and continue to tap potential for increasing yields, Heilongjiang is determined to cross the border of big agricultural machinery. In recent years, Heilongjiang has been pursuing the development of large and medium-sized agricultural machinery. Agricultural machinery cooperatives have been used as vehicles, and large-scale tractors, soil preparation machines, precision seed drills, rice transplanters and other large-scale agricultural machinery have been intensively equipped, and the mechanized production links have been changed from soil preparation to planting. Manage and collect the entire process and continuously increase land productivity, resource utilization and labor productivity.

In the past three years, the total investment in agricultural machinery and equipment in rural areas in Heilongjiang reached 14.77 billion yuan, of which 8.75 billion yuan was spent on agricultural machinery subsidies and 6.02 billion yuan was spent on agricultural machinery cooperatives. This year, Heilongjiang has fully implemented the subsidy policy for purchasing agricultural machinery, focusing on equipment such as deep soil preparation machinery, corn harvesting machinery, rice transplanting machinery and other advanced agricultural machinery. At the same time, it also invested in the construction of 118 new agricultural cooperatives with a total value of 10 million yuan, bringing the total number of large-scale modern agricultural machinery cooperatives to 558, and comprehensively increasing the mechanization level of the key links in the plant management.

As a member of the 558-million-Yuan agricultural machinery cooperative, Wang Shumin, director of the Liming Modern Agricultural Machinery Cooperative, has deep feelings about the great changes brought about by large agricultural machinery. "Big horsepower tractors coupled with joint preparation machines can complete extermination, rotary tilling, deep loosening, ridging, and fertilizing at one time. This not only increases production but also saves time and costs." Wang Shumin said that although the cooperative was established only for one year, However, due to the high efficiency and effectiveness of agricultural machinery operations, it has been universally recognized by the surrounding villagers. “This year, the total income of cooperatives has reached more than 3 million yuan. There will definitely be more jobs and more money next year. earn."

The high-powered machinery galloped on the black soil, making it a reality when looting farmers. Statistics show that the sowing of wheat, soybean and corn has been shortened by 10 days compared with the traditional way of operation; the popularization of rice mechanization has enabled the five operations of seedling sowing, water preparation, transplanting, harvesting, and autumn soil preparation to take only 5 days to complete. .

The extensive use of large farm machinery also provides an effective vehicle for the implementation of advanced agronomic techniques. Last year, the area of ​​autumn land in Heilongjiang reached nearly 130 million mu and a historic breakthrough was achieved. In the critical period of grain production, the intervention of large-scale agricultural machinery also enabled the prevention and control of disasters, which are the focus of drought protection, pests, and wind disease, to be carried out smoothly, minimizing food losses.

Exploring the organizational form of adapting to modern agricultural production and promoting the adjustment of agricultural production relations, the large-scale cooperation has stimulated the infinitely creative small-scale production of black farms, which was once a “scorpion” that hindered Heilongjiang’s agricultural modernization and increased farmers’ income. How to achieve a moderate scale of land management on the premise of stabilizing household contract responsibility system for joint production? In recent years, Heilongjiang has continuously explored the organizational forms adapted to modern agricultural production, promoted the adjustment of agricultural production relations, and stimulated the infinite creativity of black land with large cooperation.

The town of Wuliming in Zhaodong City is a traditional grain-producing town that is dominated by corn production. Since 2008, the town has been exploring the scale of land management, and has established five corn planting professional cooperatives to mobilize farmers to invest in land. The scale of the planting area has reached 70,000 mu this year, and 2,300 farmers have joined the community.

From "going alone" to "moving forward," the power of "combination" quickly emerged. Wu Liming's corn production has soared from the original 750 kg to the current 1,000 kg. “In ensuring that the farmers who join the cooperative continue to enjoy various preferential agricultural policies such as direct grain subsidies and comprehensive subsidies, the cooperative also grants an annual guaranteed income of 350 yuan per mu and uses 60% of the profit portion to distribute dividends.” Wu Liming Wang Xudong, secretary of the town party committee, said that with the guarantee of the mechanism, the per capita income of farmers has increased from less than 5,000 yuan to more than 9,200 yuan now.

Wu Ximing village farmer Wang Xiquan is one of the beneficiaries of the cooperative. “In the past, 35 acres of land, the annual income of up to 15,000 yuan,” said Wang Xiquan, after joining the cooperative he subcontracted 1000 acres of land, “cooperatives in the cultivation and collection of the entire process to give full support, although more, but the species But it is not tired. It is no problem that the income will reach 200,000 yuan this year."

By organizing the scattered peasant households to unite dispersed operations and uniting scattered operations, effective integration between small-scale production and large markets was achieved. Nowadays, farmers' professional cooperation organizations have become a common practice in Heilongjiang. Up till now, the number of farmers' professional cooperatives in the province has grown to 18,583, and farmers' cooperatives have reached 190,000 people, which has led to 1 million farmers.

In addition to professional cooperative organizations for farmers, the joint construction of field and counties has also become another profound change in black land. The reclamation area is the “national team” and “leader” in the development of modern agriculture. Since long ago, there has been a large gap between local food production capacity. How to give full play to the exemplary driving role in the reclamation area and transform the advantages of the reclamation area into the ability to promote local balanced production increase, Heilongjiang chose the breakthrough in the construction of the counties and counties: relying on the advantages of large-scale machinery, advanced technology, and water conservancy projects in Handan District, it will provide suburban farming, farming, seed replacement, irrigation, escrow, and collection for neighboring rural areas to promote the scale of land management. , Drive farmers to increase income and get rich.

“Before you planted your own seeds, you couldn’t grow your seeds, and you didn’t have the machinery to do so. You didn’t even have to make a profit in one year.” said Liu Shuang, a farmer in Yilaha Zhenwang Village, Nenjiang County. Since he handed the land to the farms under the Heilongjiang Land Reclamation Bureau 93 In this way, the benefits have been greatly improved. The land will be able to make a net profit of 9,000 yuan. "The land is still the land, but it has now become a cornucopia."

It is understood that in this year, the total area of ​​the rural areas for farming, broadcasting, and collection in the Handan District reached 40.52 million mu, which has led to a simultaneous increase in the level of rural grain production in the province. There are 66 counties (cities, districts) in the province that have established cooperative cooperation relationships with 105 farms in the farms, and have extended to various areas of agricultural and rural economic and social development, accelerating the process of urban-rural integration.
