Agricultural pioneer leads rural vitalization efforts

China Daily  

Han Fengxiang demonstrates the digital agriculture application system. "By utilizing drones and monitoring stations to collect, monitor, and analyze environmental and soil data and provide alerts in real time, this 'smart brain' helps us identify and solve problems in a timely manner," Han said. With the intelligent facilities of the meteorological comprehensive monitoring station, she and her fellow villagers have bid farewell to the days of relying on weather and experience to make farming decisions, transitioning to technology-driven agriculture. In order to extend the industrial chain, the cooperative focuses on three sectors — increasing yield per unit area with new seeds and the reasonable use of fertilizers, intercropping corn and beans and cultivating high-value economic crops for the establishment of unique products for each village. Taking part in the province's "Straw to Meat" program, the cooperative integrates farming with animal husbandry, raising 160 heads of beef cattle and planning to develop a small-scale circular economy.
