With the rapid development of the times, the overall level of agricultural production in China has rapidly improved. In this critical period of agricultural transformation, the key point of agricultural mechanization must be seized in order to better play the role of agricultural mechanization for the level of agricultural production.

The so-called agricultural mechanization is a way to use mechanical equipment instead of the original manual labor. Agricultural mechanization includes both the mechanization of production operations, but also includes the mechanization of product processing. It can effectively improve production efficiency, reduce costs, better serve the agricultural production and further improve the economic benefits of farmers.

  The role of the development of the level of agricultural mechanization and the existence of problems

  1. Role.

Improve the level of agricultural mechanization helps to promote the sustainable development of agriculture. Agricultural mechanization can better improve production efficiency, shorten production operation time and improve the efficiency of agricultural operations with precise plowing, precise watering and precise harvesting.

Secondly, specialized agricultural harvesting machinery and equipment can help improve the harvesting speed, reduce the damage to crops in the harvesting process, and better guarantee the safety of food. Again, with specialized agricultural drainage, irrigation, fertilization and other machinery and equipment, it can quickly respond to natural disasters and ensure agricultural harvesting, and at the same time, it can also guarantee soil fertility.

  2. Problems

  (1) The development structure is unreasonable.

In terms of the actual situation in China, there is an uneven structure of agricultural mechanization. First of all, in terms of equipment size, large mechanized equipment is less, while small mechanized equipment is more.

Secondly, there is a low rate of agricultural mechanization supporting the situation, more agricultural power machinery, less agricultural supporting machinery.

Again, the use of equipment from the point of view of less mechanized equipment for the production of cash crops, and more mechanized equipment for the production of food crops.

Finally, from the point of view of the use of industry, a large number of machinery and equipment are produced for the planting industry, only a small amount of machinery and equipment is about farming, animal husbandry and processing industry.

On the other hand, the level of China’s agricultural mechanization industry is still relatively backward, agricultural independent innovation is not enough, new technology and new equipment is less, agricultural equipment set up is not reasonable enough technical content is low and so on these aspects, are seriously inhibit the improvement of China’s agricultural mechanization level.

  (2) production mechanization scale is small.

China as a large agricultural country, but the main advantage of the vast land and low labor, the overall level of agricultural development is still low, the scale of agricultural production is small, the scale of production mechanization is even lower.

From the perspective of China’s farmers, many farmers backward thinking, economic constraints, there will be unwilling to buy or can not afford to buy mechanized equipment.

In the case of small machinery and equipment are insufficient purchasing power, the purchase of large machinery and equipment will almost not appear, seriously inhibiting the development of China’s agricultural production mechanization scale. At the same time, the production of the materials required, energy consumption, etc. are in the case of rising prices, agricultural production costs gradually increased, farmers almost no money for agricultural mechanization expansion, is also an important factor affecting the expansion of China’s agricultural production mechanization scale.

  (3) service system is not very sound.

At this stage, the development of China’s agriculture presents the characteristics of cross-regional, agricultural market further expansion, the scope of relevant agricultural services gradually extended backward, the focus of the original planting industry gradually shifted to the post-production processing industry.

In general, China’s agricultural mechanization service level has improved, but, due to the service system is not perfect, the level of agricultural mechanization service is relatively slow to improve.

Such slow development speed is difficult to keep up with the demand of agricultural mechanization production. At the same time, because the level of economic development in different regions of China is not quite the same, the development of agricultural mechanization level also has a considerable degree of unevenness, which also affects the overall improvement of the level of agricultural mechanization services.

 Strong measures to improve the level of agricultural mechanization and sustainable development of agriculture

  1. Improve the purchasing power of farmers for agricultural machinery and equipment.

Agricultural machinery and equipment is an important facility to improve the level of agriculture. To improve the purchasing power of farmers for agricultural machinery and equipment, it should be based on the actual level of economic development in rural areas of China, and measure the relationship between farmers’ economic income and the price of agricultural machinery and equipment.

First of all, the government can take the lead in promoting joint venture purchase and joint use of agricultural machinery and equipment, which can help reduce the pressure on individual farmers for machinery and equipment and improve the purchasing power.

Second, the mechanism of agricultural mechanization development can be improved, and government subsidies can be increased accordingly to reduce the purchase price of agricultural machinery on the side.

  On the other hand, to improve the purchasing power of farmers for agricultural machinery and equipment, it should also be necessary to improve the farmers’ awareness of machinery and equipment.

Through the organization of promotional activities, experience activities, etc., so that farmers can better understand the agricultural machinery and equipment, find these devices can bring their daily agricultural production activities to help, fully understand the purchase of the corresponding agricultural machinery and equipment required after the daily maintenance, post-maintenance content. In order to improve the farmers’ sense of identity for agricultural machinery and equipment, and then improve the farmers’ purchasing power for agricultural machinery and equipment.

  2. Promote the further improvement of agricultural mechanization service system.

The improvement of the level of agricultural mechanization is an important basis for the sustainable development of agriculture in China. First of all, should give full play to the optimal allocation of market resources, and gradually establish a market-led, agricultural mechanization services as the main means of new agricultural mechanization service system.

The establishment of the agricultural mechanization service system will help to improve the level of agricultural mechanization services and transform agricultural machinery into agricultural-related production and ? agricultural machinery used by the camp staff together.

Secondly, it should combine modern network information technology, take computer technology as the carrier, establish agricultural information service platform, and use multimedia means to improve the efficiency and service level of agricultural mechanization services.

Finally, the agricultural mechanization service system should also refer to the industrialization and market-oriented development of China’s agricultural mechanization services to provide targeted agricultural machinery service work.

  3. build agricultural mechanization technology innovation system.

With the rapid development of science and technology, improve the level of agricultural mechanization has become an effective help to promote sustainable development of agriculture. Actively use emerging science and technology, promote the work of agricultural mechanization technology innovation, and complete the comprehensive improvement of agricultural mechanization out level.

The innovation of agricultural mechanization technology should be based on the actual needs of China’s agricultural development and constantly promote. In the promotion of agricultural mechanization technology innovation should focus on large agricultural mechanization equipment, agricultural supporting machinery and equipment, economic crop production-related equipment and comprehensive agricultural equipment technology improvement.

At the same time, it should also develop different types of agricultural machinery and equipment according to different regional conditions, in order to promote the synchronous development of different regions. Accelerate the construction of agricultural mechanization technology innovation system, help to promote the rapid improvement of China’s agricultural mechanization level, and promote the sustainable development of agriculture.

 Conclusion

  Science and technology is an important productive force, and only by continuously improving the level of agricultural mechanization and enhancing the efficiency of agricultural production can we better promote the sustainable development of China’s agriculture.

To improve the level of agricultural mechanization, we should combine the actual development situation of China, take advantage of the situation, according to local conditions, improve the current situation of China’s agricultural mechanization level in a targeted manner, vigorously improve the purchasing power of farmers for agricultural machinery and equipment, promote the further improvement of the agricultural mechanization service system, and further build the agricultural mechanization technology innovation system to help promote the fight against poverty and win the overall well-off.
