In the yard, there are all kinds of seeds, fertilizers, pesticides and other agricultural supplies prepared for spring plowing. I heard that a family farming net income of more than 550,000 yuan in 2023, and the government subsidized more than 70,000 yuan.

We must be self-reliant and build our own automated terminals for our Chinese.
