Popularization and Application of Mechanized Harvesting Technology of Sugar Beet in Yili Prefecture, Xinjiang

Xinjiang Ili Prefecture is the largest sugar beet planting base in Xinjiang. Sugar beet is one of the main raw materials for the development of local industry in Yili River Valley. The sugar beet planting industry has always been the top priority of agricultural industrial structure adjustment and an important industry for farmers to increase their income. Yili Prefecture directly grows about 400,000 mu of sugar beet every year. This year, the planting area has reached 430,000 mu. There are 4 large-scale sugar-making enterprises. The area of ​​sugar beet cultivation is expanding, and sugar beet harvest has become the highlight of autumn harvest. Ili Prefecture's direct beet preparation and sowing production have all been mechanized, but the degree of mechanization of sugar beet harvest is very low. In some places, single-plow plow excavation work is mainly carried out by artificial harvest. The artificial harvesting intensity is high, the efficiency is low, and it takes time and labor. The beet harvest has always been the main problem hindering the large-scale production of sugar beet. The development of beet harvest mechanization can change the traditional harvesting methods of sugar beets, promote the change of traditional agricultural farming methods, improve the quality of sugar beets, improve the quality standards, and promote the development of the sugar industry in Yili Prefecture. The mechanization of beet harvesting is an urgent requirement of the majority of farmers, and it is also the main subject of our agricultural machinery department's many years of exploration. It is of great significance to carry out the promotion of beet harvest mechanization technology.

I. Popularization and application of mechanization technology of sugar beet harvest in Yili Prefecture
In recent years, due to the rapid development of the economy, due to the implementation of national preferential policies for agriculture, as the scale of sugar beet production continues to expand, foreign beet harvesters such as Spain and Belarus have begun to enter the Ilizhou market. Farmers are eager to realize the mechanization of sugar beet harvesting. The government actively guided the beet harvesting, promoted the development trend of beet mechanization in Yili Prefecture, and comprehensively analyzed the current development situation of beet production mechanization. It can be said that the opportunity to vigorously develop mechanization of sugar beet production has arrived. Accelerating the mechanization of sugar beet production is an important measure to promote economic development and a key task of the agricultural mechanization system next year. In October 2008, Yili Prefecture Agricultural Machinery Promotion Station was in Chabuchar County, and demonstrated the two lines (2HL-TL type), three lines (3HL-TL type) beet cutting machine and single line produced by Spanish Marseille Agricultural Machinery Co., Ltd. The (1AH-S type) beet excavator received good demonstration results. In 2009, 19 sets of segmented beet-cut harvesters at home and abroad were introduced, consisting of cutting machines and excavators. Three 2HL-TL two-row beet cutting machines, two 1AH-S single-row beet excavators, one 3HL-TL three-row beet cutting machine and one 3AH-S three-row machine produced in Marseille, Spain. Beet excavation and collecting machine; Jiangsu Changzhou Jinzhou Electromechanical Manufacturing Co., Ltd. 1 CTQY3 three-line beet cutting machine and one CTQB3 three-line beet excavator; Heilongjiang Beidahuang Zhongrong Agricultural Machinery Co., Ltd. 5 BSR-475 series Two rows of leaf cutters and five single-row beet excavators Spain Marseille beet harvester 2HL-TL two-row, 3HL-TL three-line beet cutting machine and 1AH-S single-row beet excavator were included in the autonomous region in 2009 The agricultural machinery purchase subsidy catalogue mobilized the enthusiasm for the purchase of machinery and equipment. Yili Prefecture purchased 3 sets directly, and the 4th Division of the Bingtuan Farm purchased 8 Spanish Marseille beet harvesters. The promotion of beet harvest mechanization technology was promoted by the local team. Machines produced in Changzhou, Jiangsu, and other models produced in Marseille, Spain, are actively applying for inclusion in the Agricultural Machinery Purchase Subsidy Catalogue of the Autonomous Region next year. In 2009, the demonstration and promotion of beet mechanized harvesting technology was completed and the area was 0.5 million mu, and 150% of the tasks were completed. The harvest quality of the beet harvested reaches the technical index: the leakage rate of the machine is 5% lower, the loss of sugar beet is not higher than 3%, the root of the serious damage during excavation does not exceed 5%, the damage of the minor injury is less than 20%, and the rate of leakage is not Greater than 1%. In the past two years, I have done a lot of preparatory work and accumulated a lot of experimental and demonstration basic data. It laid the foundation for accelerating the new technology of sugar beet harvesting, the promotion of new tools and the development of mechanization of sugar beet harvesting.

Second, the development of Ili Prefecture sugar beet harvest mechanization measures

The Ilizhou Agricultural Machinery Bureau requires all levels of agricultural machinery departments to effectively mechanize the sugar beet harvest as the top priority of the current and future agricultural machinery work in the whole state, to find the right position, set goals, make plans, implement them seriously, have plans, With emphasis and step-by-step advancement, we must do the following work in the introduction and promotion of beet machine harvesting:

1. Strengthen publicity and demonstration. By holding the beet machinery harvest site meeting and demonstration meeting to increase the demonstration and promotion efforts, it is necessary to organize the farmers as much as possible to watch the on-site demonstration of advanced equipment and experience the superiority and advancement of the beet combine harvester, through personal experience and accounting comparison. Make them aware of the benefits of using a beet combine harvester to make their minds move and act. In addition, through public opinion propaganda, increase the intensity of demonstration and promotion. It is necessary to organize the agricultural machinery technology to go to the countryside, catch up with the science and technology collection, dispatch propaganda vehicles, distribute plain paper and other forms that farmers like to see and hear, and widely publicize the policies, common sense and benefits of beet harvesting, so that the peasants can understand their knowledge, understand their meanings, and understand It is beneficial to improve the consciousness of mechanization of beet harvesting. It is necessary to use television, radio, newspapers, websites and other news media to publicize and report on the development of beet harvest mechanization and typical experiences, and strive to create a good environment to accelerate the mechanization of sugar beet harvest.

2. Strengthen technical training and services. First, we must do a good job in robot training. We must rely on the agricultural machinery schools at all levels to train the mechanics on mechanical principles, machine performance, driving operations, etc., to develop principles, operations, maintenance, and problems. The qualified machine is guaranteed to make the advanced beet harvesting machinery fully function. The second is to do a good job of management personnel and technical backbone training. In order to better guide the mechanization of sugar beet harvesting, it is necessary to strengthen the training of the heads of agricultural machinery departments and technical backbones at all levels. All cities and counties also have to hold technical training courses to continuously improve the quality and technical level of agricultural machinery management and technical personnel. The third is to do a good job. It is necessary to supervise the relevant production enterprises or suppliers to fulfill the supply contract, implement the “four guarantees”, and add “package” training along with the “three guarantees” to establish and improve the pre-use training, in-use guidance, and return visit system after use. Improve the ability of farmers' operators to operate sugar beet combine harvesters. Fourth, to strengthen the combination of agricultural machinery and agronomy, it is necessary to explore and summarize the mechanization technology suitable for the production conditions of local sugar beets, do a good job in the selection and matching of machinery and tools, and determine the regional mechanization technical route and operation mode. V. Actively organize the follow-up assessment and quality investigation of sugar beet harvesting machinery, and timely report the assessment and investigation results to the society and production enterprises to help enterprises continuously improve the quality of sugar beet harvesting machinery and equipment.

3. Highlight key points and increase investment. To increase the subsidy for the purchase of sugar beet harvesting machinery, enterprises should introduce the sugar beet harvester into the subsidy catalogue of the national autonomous region as soon as possible, take the sugar beet harvesting machinery as a key model subsidy, and strive for local purchase subsidy funds to support the sugar beet harvesting machinery. We will mobilize the enthusiasm of farmers to purchase machines, encourage subsidies for local purchase subsidies, support and guide farmers and various channels of capital investment, and establish a diversified investment mechanism to create favorable conditions for the development of beet harvest mechanization.

4. Strengthen research and establish a sound standardization system for sugar beet industry. The State Agricultural Machinery Extension Station has formulated the "Ili Prefecture Beet Production Mechanization Technology Operation Regulations", and it is recommended to organize experts, scholars, technicians, etc. of relevant units to formulate industry standards or places for the quality of planting, cultivating, harvesting and harvesting machinery. Standards and machine-acquisition beet acquisition standards, so that each production link of sugar beet is included in the standardization management track, thus forming a complete set of comprehensive standard index system to promote the development of beet harvest mechanization technology.
