The era of smart agriculture is here! How to do it specifically?

    The "14th Five-Year Plan" period is the first five years to start a new journey of building a socialist modernized country in an all-round way and marching towards the second centenary goal. It is also a period of vigorously promoting rural revitalization and building a digital China. Recently, the Central Cyberspace Administration of China, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Ministry of Science and Technology, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, the Ministry of Commerce, the State Administration for Market Regulation, the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, and the National Rural Revitalization Bureau have jointly formulated "Digital Village Development Action Plan (2022-2025)" (hereinafter referred to as the "Action Plan"). The "Action Plan" proposes the development goals, key tasks and safeguard measures for digital villages during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, and comprehensively deploys digital village work. In order to better understand the main contents of the "Action Plan" from all walks of life, the Central Network Information Office organized relevant experts and scholars to study and interpret the key tasks of the "Action Plan", and jointly promote the construction of digital villages to a new level.

   In today's era, a new round of industrial revolution characterized by digitization and intelligence is booming, and new-generation information technologies such as the Internet of Things, big data, and artificial intelligence are rapidly infiltrating and integrating with agriculture and rural areas, pushing my country's agriculture into the era of smart agriculture. Recently, 10 departments including the Central Cyberspace Administration of China and the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs jointly issued the "Digital Rural Development Action Plan (2022-2025)" (hereinafter referred to as the "Action Plan"), clearly proposing the "Smart Agriculture Innovation and Development Action" to accelerate Promote the development of smart agriculture. The development of smart agriculture is an important part of the construction of digital villages, and it is also an urgent need to solve my country's "three rural" problems and build new advantages in modern agriculture in international competition.

    Smart agriculture is a digital agriculture method formed by the deep integration of modern information technology and traditional agriculture. Smart agriculture is an agricultural form that realizes precise perception, intelligent control, and intelligent management of the production process on the basis of information technology and advanced equipment conditions, and pursues higher agricultural resource utilization, higher labor productivity, and better employment experience.

    Smart agriculture is an advanced form of modern agriculture. Smart agriculture, characterized by data, systems, and intelligent equipment, is deeply integrated with production factors such as land, animals and plants, and production tools in traditional agriculture to achieve precise production operations, autonomous management and decision-making, and chain-based industrial upgrading, promoting Agriculture has entered a new era of modern agriculture featuring convenient production, efficient management and industrial coordination.

   Smart agriculture has distinct digital, systematic and intelligent characteristics. Divided by field, smart agriculture will form multiple production types such as smart planting, smart breeding, and smart processing. According to application scenarios, there will be multiple categories of places such as smart farms, smart greenhouses, and smart processing plants. Either form is inseparable from core elements such as big data, advanced systems, intelligent equipment, and digital infrastructure. Smart agriculture is through the deep integration of modern information technology and agriculture, allowing machines and systems to actively perceive information, quantitative decision-making, intelligent control, and personalized services. This is a brand-new digital industry approach.

    Break through the predicament of coordinated development of the smart agricultural industry chain. Smart agriculture is a systematic project, not just a single application of information science and technology, but the industrial chain is closely related and affects each other. Due to the separation of the traditional planting and breeding relationship, the overall efficiency of the entire industry chain is not high. It is necessary to give full play to the advantages of technical association, information sharing and all-factor matching in the whole chain of smart agriculture, fully reflect the characteristics of integration and integration in construction and development, promote the development of smart agriculture with high quality, and help rural revitalization.
