[China Agricultural Machinery Industry News] Agriculture has always been the lifeblood of China's national economy. The data shows that there are a total of 2.025 billion mu of cultivated land in China, accounting for about 7% of the total cultivated land area in the world. However, the current application of modern agricultural equipment is insufficient, and the rural youth labor force is seriously lacking. To this end, the state has introduced policies to vigorously promote the transformation and upgrading of agriculture marked by large-scale production, and the plant protection drones that work with “machine generation†have also begun to emerge in batches. In the public eye.
For farmers with low spending power, the price-economy, simple and easy-to-operate, high-efficiency plant protection drone is the real “treasure of the palmâ€.

Facing the opportunity: in the billion-dollar market
As early as 2014, the No. 1 Document of the Central Committee clearly put forward the major national strategic decision-making of “strengthening the construction of agricultural aviationâ€, and then various support policies were gradually rolled out.
According to statistics, the rate of aviation plant protection operations worldwide has reached 17%. Sixty-five percent of the chemical pesticides in the United States are sprayed by aircraft operations, of which 100% of rice is applied by aircraft. In the Asian market with complex farmland terrain, Japan is a mature case of plant protection drones, and the proportion of aviation operations has reached more than 50%. Among China's 2 billion mu of cultivated land, the proportion of aviation plant protection is only 1.65%. With the increase of land transfer rate and the popularity of plant protection drones, this proportion will gradually increase, and the plant protection market will eventually reach the scale of 100 billion.

The person in charge of the research and development of the core technology of UAV is told by Yuchen.com, as the small sensor technology matures, in the agricultural field, civilian UAVs are used on a large scale. The conditions are ripe.
The person in charge of the game said that the current land transfer rate in China has reached 30%, and large-scale fields must rely on mechanized farming. In the whole cycle of crop growth, only the spraying process is dominated by manpower, the operation efficiency is low, the spraying effect is poor, and pesticide poisoning often occurs. "Now, most of the people who stay in the countryside are not willing to go to the field to spray drugs, especially the rice fields, many water snakes, grasshoppers. When it comes to rice field spraying, it is still an unpleasant memory of many farmers." The use of plant protection drones can solve this series of problems, because the drone's spraying efficiency can reach 40 to 60 people per day.
Solving farmers' difficulties: flight control technology is the key
According to Yuchen.com, the huge market of plant protection drones has attracted a lot of social capital. For example, many traditional agricultural traders and agricultural machinery companies have keenly smelled the commercial value of plant protection drones and started to deploy plant protection. The machine industry also includes many listed companies, such as German Aerospace, Xin'an Group, Longxin GM, and Barida.

The person in charge of the game told Yuchen.com that although these cross-border merchants have sales channels and can assemble the racks, they lack the core technical solution of flight control. The drones are just empty racks and cannot fly. Don't mention self-employment.
"Flight control is the core technology of the drone, and the threshold is very high. The manufacturers that independently developed the flight control were originally rare in China." The above-mentioned person in charge said.
It is reported that the drone has arisen in aerial photography, and the flight control scheme on the market is developed for aerial cameras, such as Dajiang and Zero. The plant protection drone has a wheelbase of more than 1 meter and a small load of 4 to 5 kilograms. During the spraying of pesticides, the load capacity will continue to decrease. Moreover, farm operations and aerial photography are also completely different in flight applications. The current plant protection drone manufacturers are struggling to find a suitable and stable flight control.

"We just installed a self-developed flight control system for an eight-rotor large-load rack. At present, the aircraft has been able to fly and spray pesticides autonomously. After entering the operation mode, it is no longer necessary for the flying hands to participate." The person in charge told Yuchen.com that there is a new eight-rotor heavy-duty rack that can be loaded with 20 kg of pesticides, but it is hard to find an auto-driving solution suitable for this oversized model in the market. . After knowing their needs, the smart technicians sent a technician to the job site, hand-teaching, and successfully solved the problems of control and automatic spray mode. Within a few minutes, the aircraft sprayed nearly ten acres.

"Most of our team members are doing research and development. They are all from the research teams of aerospace colleges at home and abroad. They have accumulated many years of theoretical research and project engineering experience in the field of navigation control. The research results have been successfully applied to many In the project." The person in charge of the smart person said.
Locking farmers' needs: the economy
For a long time, plant protection drones have been heavily resisted in the rural promotion process. An important reason is the high price. According to Yuchen.com, the price of an agricultural plant protection drone varies from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands. If a general farmer needs to spray a pesticide with a drone, he will only choose a low-priced machine.
The person in charge of the smart person said that in two years, the team was led by several founders, and went through many rural investigations to communicate with pesticide farmers, plant protection teams and terminal farmers to understand their needs. The requirements are simple, the price of the aircraft can not be too expensive, but the effect of the fight must be in place. Our goal is to achieve these two points, so that farmers not only easy to fight drugs, but more importantly, have economic benefits."

But the simpler the requirements, the more difficult it is to implement technically. The price can't be too expensive, which means using low-cost sensors. These sensors are less accurate and need to be compensated by technical optimization algorithms. According to Yuchen.com, some industrial-grade flight controls are not suitable for the agricultural sector because of the high-precision sensors. If the effect of fighting drugs is in place, it will involve more problems. On the one hand, the flight control must control the huge drones to operate safely and stably for a long time, and resist external disturbances such as high temperature, strong vibration and strong impact. These are not available in aerial flight control. On the other hand, it is easy to cause heavy spray, leak spray, multiple spray, and less spray to control the growth of crops by flying the drone. Therefore, plant protection drones should achieve automatic flight spraying.
“The pretty technical team has repeatedly improved the product. The company is on the rice field. It is often seen that one person operates the plane at the edge of the field, and the other person is carrying a computer monitor. One day of commissioning is one day. After the internal test is completed, the product will be sent. The customer was tested locally. In this way, the fourth edition was updated, and hundreds of details were fixed. Finally, the product was officially introduced to the market.
The person in charge of the game told Yuchen.com that the summer busy season is the time to test the performance of plant protection drones. The aircraft needs to operate in an outdoor high temperature environment for several days in a row. The dozens of models of the flying control in all parts of the country, all successfully completed the three-month agricultural busy season. Customers praised the beauty of the product is a "practical, cost-effective" plant protection drone flight control.

To do a good job of drones, we must have years of technical accumulation as a basis, and we must have an in-depth exploration of the industries we are targeting. "The pretty move is so plunged into the agricultural market, and it can help farmers to make money. It is the real success of the plant protection drone technology. It is also the 'one ice heart' of the whole team." The person in charge said, "Technology is Serving the market, we hope that our technology can promote the take-off of the aviation plant protection market, and we can use the drone to innovate more commercial fields in the future."
