CCTV News (News Network): At present, spring sowing is being promoted in an orderly manner from south to north, and the country has more than 100 million mu of spring food.

The latest agricultural situation dispatch of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs shows that at present, the national spring sowing grain is 110 million mu, and the progress is over 10%, which is basically the same as last year. Among them, early rice is planted with more than 45% of the planting, more than half of the planting potatoes are sown in spring, more than 30% of the planting of wheat is sown in spring, and nearly 10% of the planting of corn is sown in spring.
This spring sowing, rice was included in key crops for large-scale yield improvement for the first time. Hunan has promoted 14 counties in the whole system, focusing on promoting integrated technologies such as centralized seedling cultivation, machine planting and throwing, and promoting large-scale rice yields. Wang Haifeng, a large grain grower in Qiyang, purchased 15 new rice transplanters through the policy of exchanging the old for new ones. All of the more than 7,000 acres of early rice he planted were machine transplanted.

Guizhou, the main potato production area, will comprehensively promote the planting plan for new potato varieties this year. In recent days, the Weining 10,000 mu potato seed expansion base is stepping up the promotion and planting of multiple main varieties. This year, the local raw potato seed production will stabilize at more than 80 million.
At present, spring wheat sowing in Inner Mongolia is accelerating its progress. This year, the local area will use 40,400 Beidou navigation assisted driving systems (sets). In Bayannur, agricultural machinery operators only need to set parameters such as route and depth, and the seed machine will automatically complete the simultaneous planting of fertilizers, which greatly improves efficiency.

Shandong spring corn sowing is also underway. This year, the local area promoted the application of 150,000 new models such as single-grain precision seeders (sets). In Huantai, with the precise placement of the robotic arm, the corn seedlings are planted neatly into the soil, and multiple processes such as fertilization, coating of the mulch film, and laying drip irrigation belt are completed at one time.
This year's spring plowing, Heilongjiang North Wilderness will carry out scientific and technological seedling cultivation in full swing. In the intelligent seedling greenhouse in the 290 farm, the temperature, water and soil pH are controlled, and the seedlings are strengthened by intelligent operations, with a rate of strengthening exceeding 95%.

At present, the national spring sowing production is progressing smoothly, and the area of spring sowing grain is expected to remain stable.
