Shandong Yangtze River Grain Machinery: How can one kilogram of grain increase its "value" through "divine tools"?

May 20,2024


Recently, Sun Cheng, the head of Qilun agricultural cooperative in Huantai County, Zibo City, came to the Shandong Yangtze River Grain and Oil Storage Machinery Co., LTD. (hereinafter referred to as Changjiang Grain Machine) factory, in front of him, the professionals of the enterprise are introducing and demonstrating the wisdom of dry grain storage bin "drying grain" and grain storage "ability". Wheat is about to mature, and for Suncheng, which has more than 1,300 acres of land, how to store grain is an imminent problem.

June is the season of wheat harvest. In a piece of golden is pregnant with the "national", but also pregnant with the foundation of "food for the people". The key to food security is not only to ensure the production capacity of food, but also to give every grain of food a sense of security after leaving the land. Such a "sense of security" is to dry the grain "do not look at the day", store the grain without loss, and sell the grain "with profit". Changjiang Grain machine has begun to make the "rice bowl filled more" technological innovation.

Where is the "God" of the "artifact"?

Suncheng circulation of 1300 acres of land in Huantai County Maqiao town East Circle village, the first year of grain, the average yield of 1834 pounds per mu. Sun Cheng told reporters that after receiving the grain is placed in the mechanical equipment compartment, so it is inevitable to face the problem of food loss, after hearing the recommendation of other grain farmers, he came to the Yangtze River grain machine to understand the wisdom of dry grain storage bin.

"This year we expect to produce 2, 000 jin per mu, so we need to solve the problem of grain storage as soon as possible." Sun Cheng said, "This time to see the basic can also be set, should order a dozen equipment."

In fact, the "loss" problem that Suncheng faces in the storage of grain is the "pain point" common to most large grain farmers and family farms at present. Yang Changhai, chairman of Changjiang Grain Machine, told reporters that the original intention of developing intelligent dry grain storage bins is also from the threshold encountered by enterprises in the development of primary production.

In 2016, the Yangtze River grain machine transferred 2,300 mu of land, and used idle workshops for storage after grain harvest, but during the period, not only to face the "harassment" of rats and sparrows, the temperature, humidity and other aspects of the storage environment are not suitable, which will affect the quality of food to a certain extent. Therefore, in order to solve the problems of difficult grain storage, difficult to sell during the harvest season, difficult to dry and dry, Yangtze River Grain Machine, which was originally engaged in the design and development of grain storage system, production and manufacturing, low temperature green grain storage and other projects, began to research and development of this "pain point".

The intelligent drying grain storage bin breaks the traditional wheat harvest mode of "watching the day to eat", and can be harvested under the condition of the best wheat moisture, that is, the most high and stable yield. After the grain is harvested, the seeds are directly put into the bin for automatic drying and storage. The use of digital control, scientific numerical control ventilation system, to promote the dry air through the grain layer, the air accelerated between the grain to carry away water, to reduce the water content of grain. Its automatic air drying mode can simulate the state of natural air drying; The digital control can achieve remote control, mobile phones, computers can monitor the temperature and moisture inside the drying bin anytime and anywhere, to ensure the safe water content of wheat.

At present, the equipment has obtained national innovative inventions and new utility patents. During the research and development period, the relevant experts of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences and the Ministry of Agriculture also continuously went to the Yangtze River grain machine to test, collect data samples, and form authoritative data for the continuous adjustment and improvement of subsequent technologies.

Changjiang grain machinery equipment is very popular in the market, has sold more than 200 units, and is now rushing to order 100 units of equipment in Shenchi County, Shanxi Province, local food cooperatives such as Qifeng Town South village, Guoli town Lijia village and other rural areas, has been "near the water floor first to the month", a number of equipment configuration to the village.

What confidence does "storing grain in technology" bring?

Yang Changhai, chairman of the Yangtze River grain machine, calculated an account to reporters, the traditional way of storing grain, the loss of grain is about 8%, but as far as the current data is, the use of grain storage can be reduced to 1%, down 7 percentage points. So if 10% of the country's large grain farmers, family farms, etc. use wisdom to dry grain storage silos, it can add hundreds of millions of acres of invisible grain fields to the country a year.

In terms of reducing food loss, wheat off the ground can achieve another form of hardcore "landing."

The moisture content of wheat is an important factor affecting the safety of grain storage. Too high moisture content will cause heat and even mildew of grain. If the water content is too low, it will lose the color of the grain itself as well as the seed use and edible quality. Traditionally, farmers would harvest wheat with a water content of about 13% and then dry it in suitable weather conditions, making it difficult to avoid the problem of "relying on the weather to eat".

"The biggest feature of the drying bin is to 'eat' regardless of the weather, and the wheat moisture can be harvested at about 18%, and it can be put into the drying bin for natural air drying, so that it can achieve safe moisture." Yang Changhai said, "In this way, each mu of land can reduce losses, increase wheat production by about 80 jin, and the corresponding per mu of land can increase income by about 120 yuan."

For farmers, the increase in income comes not only from the "loss", but also from the "premium". Last year, the Changjiang grain machine wheat harvest market price of 1.37 yuan per catty, packed into the grain storage bin, at the right time to 1.52 yuan per catty price sales, a catty of grain earned more than 15 cents. A grain storage bin can hold 100 tons of grain, so you can earn an extra 30,000 yuan. Therefore, the grain storage bin can provide stable storage space, so that farmers do not sell grain at a "low price" because of gathering grain, increasing the premium ability.

Of course, this also means that farmers have enough time to plant corn after the harvest.

"As far as rural revitalization is concerned, we hope that the research and development and use of the equipment will allow farmers and enterprises to reach a win-win situation." Yang Changhai said.

A big game from home to abroad

As one of the largest and most stable suppliers of grain storage in China, Changjiang Grain machinery market share in the top ten in the country, magnesite insulation plate is occupied more than 40% of the domestic market share, and participated in the formulation of national standards for products. Originally, it mainly served the national grain depot and stored bulk grain. Now seize the "pain point" of farmers' grain storage, further extend and sink the business, and work hard for the "small base" grain storage, which can store 1 ton or 10 thousand tons, creating more technical space and vertical coverage for the realization of high-quality food supply.

In the "three-step" plan of the enterprise, the first step is to serve the national grain depot well; The second step is to lay out the granary to the people. At present, there are 2.36 million family farms and large grain growers in China, and if 10 percent of them use grain storage warehouses, it will be a huge market of more than 100 billion yuan. The third step is to follow the Belt and Road and go out.

At present, Changjiang Grain Machine has tested the water in foreign markets, in addition to supporting national projects, but also independently explored the Central Asian and African markets. On the basis of digesting the advanced drying warehouse technology in Europe and the United States, the operation mode such as setting up a local distribution office has begun to bring the grain storage warehouse to the international pace.

Changjiang grain Machine is also constantly upgrading itself, 2024 is the first year of the listing of Changjiang Grain Machine, and the standardization of enterprise management will be achieved through listing. At the same time, it has formed a strategic alliance with leading enterprises in related industries, introduced capital, participated in the holding as the chain master, reduced investment costs in the common industrial chain, and shared market information resources.

Changjiang grain machine is "China's top ten grain machine brand", "China's top ten grain machinery", last year, the output value increased by 145%, this year is expected to double the output value. In the face of the era of science and technology, Chairman Yang Changhai said, do not ask hard work, only talk about harvest, work to natural success. "The potential of both domestic and international markets is huge, and we are very confident about future development."
