"As of 2023, Yongchang County has built a total of 729,800 mu of high-standard farmland, accounting for 51.4% of the total cultivated land area and 67.6% of the perennial sowing area.
When the fertile land is secured, the grain warehouse is full. In recent years, Yongchang County has always kept in mind General Secretary Xi Jinping's earnest entrustment that "protecting cultivated land and building high-standard farmland is an important starting point, and we must unswervingly grasp it", and has always adhered to the "great man of the country" and promoted the construction of high-standard farmland with "five modernizations and five systems".
"Up" and "down" are connected in parallel to build a flat propulsion system
For high-standard farmland, "organization" is the core, and "mechanism" is the starting point. Yongchang County adheres to the government-led, departmental linkage, overall planning, step-by-step implementation, the county's overall planning of "a game of chess", the township departments "one strength", and the masses "one heart", and takes multiple measures to ensure the full participation and full coverage of high-standard farmland, laying a solid foundation for the county to firmly and resolutely win the battle of high-standard farmland construction.
Pay equal attention to "quality" and "efficiency", and build an intensive construction system
High standard farmland, high standard is fundamental, construction is the key. Yongchang County adheres to the "five unifications" of planning and layout, construction standards, organization and implementation, acceptance assessment, and storage in the above figure, and conducts on-site inspections of townships and towns, on-site surveys in sub-districts, and invites experts to conduct centralized reviews.
"Science" and "intelligence" stand together to build an intelligent supervision system
High-standard farmland, science and technology are leading, and intelligence is the future. Yongchang County adheres to the principle of "standardized supervision, intelligent application, and large-scale operation", relying on the agricultural construction project management platform and the national comprehensive monitoring system for farmland construction, and puts all the information on the construction of high-standard farmland into the database, and builds a "one map" of high-standard farmland, so as to achieve clear location, correct land type, accurate area, and clear ownership. At present, the automation service has covered nearly 700,000 mu of high-standard farmland, and realized the intelligent remote management of irrigation, fertilization and pesticide application. At the same time, the integration of farmland, agronomy, agricultural technology, agricultural machinery, intelligence and other production factors has realized the equal supervision of "civil air defense + technical defense", creating a new powerful engine for the high-quality development of modern agriculture.
"Innovation" and "innovation" are paralleled to build a diversified operation system
High-standard farmland, contiguous is the standard, and efficiency is the goal. Yongchang County adheres to the policy of adapting measures to local conditions and villages, actively explores the operation mode of combining high-standard farmland and land circulation, efficient water saving, large-scale operation, and consolidating results, breaks the boundaries of farmers and plots, and implements the transformation of small into large and scattered into whole, driving the circulation of all 729,800 mu of high-standard farmland in the county. The rapid promotion of high-efficiency water-saving irrigation technologies such as shallow drip irrigation and water and fertilizer integration has effectively promoted the "three sections, three resistances and three increases" of agricultural planting, and more than 300,000 acres of high-efficiency water-saving irrigation technologies have been promoted annually in the past two years. The high-standard farmland of "fields into squares, roads into networks, canals and flat land" has created conditions for large-scale operation, driving the county's agricultural production entities such as flight prevention plant protection, agricultural machinery security, and agricultural material purchase and sales to 567, with a custody service area of nearly 600,000 mu, and the agricultural mechanization rate has reached 93.3%, and the proportion of moderate-scale operation has reached more than 72%.
"Management" and "protection" are carried out at the same time, and a standardized supervision system is built
High-standard farmland, management and protection is long-term, and sustainability is the foundation. Yongchang County adheres to the multi-management and protection mechanism of "county-level overall responsibility, township as the main body, village collective implementation, and beneficiary participation". Accurately check the high-standard acceptance, check the 28 contents of the project against the benchmarking table, track and audit the whole process, and ask the people for the whole process to ensure that the farmland is more "beautiful" and more "temperamental". Adhering to the principle of "who benefits, who manages, who uses, and who manages", the project is handed over in a timely manner, included in the management of the village collective assets, and 112 management and protection teams of more than 600 people are set up to ensure the efficient operation of the project. The high-frequency inspections of random inspections by industry departments and regular inspections by local towns and towns have realized the investigation of "horizontal to the edge, vertical to the bottom, seamless and full coverage", and effectively ensured that high-standard farmland is built, managed and used.
The construction of high-standard farmland has solved the "difficulty in water diversion" of irrigation, the "difficulty in management" of intensive cultivation, and the "difficulty in improving production capacity" from the source. Nowadays, walking on the vast fertile soil of Yongchang, what catches your eye is a piece of endless large fields, a wide road, a straight and dense drip irrigation belt, and rows of vigorous young seedlings, and the farmland has truly become a "cornucopia" for farmers to increase their income and get rich.
