Foreign Media: China has built the world's first unmanned rice regeneration smart farm, with a 50% increase in yield
To achieve the goal of 90% self-sufficiency in grain by 2032, China has built the world's first unmanned rice regeneration smart farm in Datong Lake Area, Hunan Province.
The farm covers about 33 hectares (82 acres) of experimental fields, with an overall intelligent base covering 200 hectares. This year, 20 sets of unmanned agricultural machinery were deployed, covering an operational area of 666 hectares. The farm realizes full-process unmanned management through smart technology, using "rice regeneration" technology - that is, after harvesting the first season of rice, the rice stalks are used to sprout again for the second harvest, with a yield 50% higher than traditional methods.
Rice regeneration is an ancient but technically challenging planting method. This time, through intelligent means, it has been scaled up, and is seen as an important breakthrough in China's promotion of its food security strategy.
