In Xiaogang Village, Fengyang, the birthplace of rural reform in China, "grain growers" are the vivid inheritors and developers of the spirit of "big responsibility" in the new era. They concentrated the scattered farmland of each household through land transfer, forming large-scale management units of hundreds or even thousands of acres, completely changing the production mode of traditional small-scale agricultural economy.
These new agricultural operators are pioneers in the practice of modern agricultural technology. They widely use large tractors, seeders, and harvesters, and actively introduce smart agricultural technologies such as the Internet of Things, unmanned aerial vehicle patrols, and intelligent irrigation, achieving precise management from "relying on experience" to "looking at data". This large-scale and mechanized production method greatly improves land productivity, resource utilization, and labor productivity.
As the "CEO" in rural areas, large-scale grain growers are not only the backbone of ensuring national food security, but their modern farms themselves also constitute a new landscape in Xiaogang Village. They demonstrate the entrepreneurial spirit and technological literacy of contemporary farmers, serving as an important window for observing the smart agriculture and understanding the contemporary rural transformation within the scenic area. They mark a new journey of modern agriculture for Xiaogang Village, from "eating enough" to "planting well".
