Unmanned laser weeders, a sharp tool for agricultural modernization or a "hype" gimmick?
In recent years, with the continuous development of science and technology, all walks of life are constantly innovating and changing, and the agricultural field is no exception. In order to improve agricultural production efficiency and reduce the labor intensity of farmers, various high-tech agricultural equipment have been promoted in various places, including unmanned laser weeders. Recently, a news about the launch of a high-performance unmanned laser weeder in Inner Mongolia has sparked heated discussions, according to reports, this weed waffler has high efficiency, low cost, low accidental injury rate, and has been welcomed by many farmers once it was launched. Just when people are looking forward to this new technology, many netizens have questioned it, they think that this is just an exaggerated propaganda report, the so-called "high-performance" unmanned laser weeder does not exist, and its essence is just a "hype" gimmick. So, what should we think about whether this unmanned laser weeder is a weapon or a "hype" gimmick?
1. Unmanned laser weeder, a sharp tool for agricultural modernization
1. The introduction of unmanned laser weed-killers
In recent years, with the continuous advancement of agricultural modernization, agricultural departments in various places have increased their support for agricultural science and technology, and the promotion of various high-tech agricultural equipment has become a major trend at present. Driven by this trend, unmanned laser weedizer, as a new agricultural production tool, has gradually entered people's field of vision. It is understood that this unmanned laser weeder uses advanced lidar technology and artificial intelligence algorithms, which can independently identify crops and weeds and achieve precise weeding, which can not only greatly improve the efficiency of weeding, but also effectively reduce the use of pesticides, which is of great significance for protecting the ecological environment.
2. Advantages of unmanned laser weeds
Compared with the traditional manual weeding method, the unmanned laser weeder undoubtedly has many advantages. From the point of view of operation efficiency, this weeder can achieve 24-hour uninterrupted operation, and the operation speed is very fast, a machine can complete the weeding work of a large area of farmland, and its operation efficiency is dozens or even hundreds of times that of traditional manual weeding. From the perspective of economic benefits, although the price of unmanned laser weeding is relatively expensive, in the long run, its use cost is far lower than that of manual weeding, and it can also save farmers a lot of manpower and material costs. The most important thing is that the unmanned laser weeder will hardly cause any damage to crops during operation, and its accidental injury rate is only 5%, which is far lower than the 20% to 30% of traditional manual weeding, which can effectively ensure the growth of crops.
Second, the unmanned laser weeder is just a "hype" gimmick?
1. Netizens' doubts about unmanned laser weeders
Although the unmanned laser weeder has many advantages, it has encountered some resistance in the process of promotion in some places, and it has also aroused many netizens' questions. Recently, the "high-performance" unmanned laser weeder launched in Inner Mongolia has become a hot topic of public opinion, and many people have questioned it, believing that its essence is just an exaggerated propaganda report, and the so-called "high performance" is just a "hype" gimmick. According to these netizens, what they learned is that the unmanned laser weeder can indeed achieve autonomous operation, but its weeding effect is not satisfactory, many places still need to be manually cleaned, and its weeding speed is not as fast as imagined, the operation efficiency has not reached dozens of times as officially advertised, and even more, some unmanned laser weeders will accidentally injure crops during the operation, and its essence is not better than the traditional weeding method.
2. How to put the driverless laser weed killer into perspective
In the face of such doubts, how should we correctly view the unmanned laser weeder? As a new agricultural production tool, unmanned laser weeder does have a very broad market prospects, it can bring revolutionary changes to agricultural production, and is of great significance for promoting agricultural modernization. As well as its scope of application and operational points in actual production.
The promotion of agricultural modernization is inseparable from the support of science and technology, but in the process of promoting high-tech agricultural equipment, it is also necessary to take into account the actual needs and operating habits of farmers, not blindly promoted, but to fully communicate and cooperate with farmers, so that they can truly become participants and beneficiaries of technology, so as to better promote the upgrading and improvement of agricultural production methods and achieve sustainable development of agriculture.
The introduction of unmanned laser weeder has undoubtedly brought a revolution to agricultural production, it does have a very strong weeding ability, which can bring great convenience to the production and life of farmers, but in the process of promotion, we must not only see the benefits it brings, but also objectively recognize its problems and shortcomings, not blindly "hype", but to speak through real data and facts, so that farmers can really benefit, and promote agricultural modernization to a new level.
