Chinese food can grow at 40°c! The new farmer's great black technology
“seen any heating panels on the wall, each of which is connected to a heating pipe directly below the ground, as if it were heating the shed to keep the interior temperature at 10°c in extreme weather below 35°c.” the zhuang is moving out of the green hut, and he is constantly introducing me to what he calls the new one。
Born in 1997 in suu xin city, shandong province, after a standard of 90, it is also a representative of the “new farmer” in this “street country”. Since he was a child, he had been in his father's hut, where he had written homework and played mud. At the age of 17, he had gone out as a grower in the province; at the age of 20, he had become a million fans of china's first “three farmers” track; at the age of 23, he had studied new greenhouse technologies, spreading china's top agricultural technology to more than 30 countries。
Today, in his greenhouse technology complex, which occupies more than 100 acres of land, there are a dozen greenhouses that are suitable for the world's climates and landscapes. His main activity is to promote these new greenhouses around the world. He said to me that agriculture was no longer a “face-to-face, back-to-back, sweat-to-back day”, but rather an industry in which the sense of technology and the sense of the future were combined, namely, cyberpunk and the “art of cultivation”。
"let my dad stop pulling the tampons."
Luang lucky called the shed "small."。
His childhood was closely linked to the shed, “the thing he loved when he was a child was to go down with his father, especially in winter”. Luang luang recalled that winter in the north was always dark, but once into the shed, he could see green. The sheds have become a source of hope throughout the year。
When he first went to kindergarten, he learned to follow his father for farming, but when he was 4 years old, he accidentally fell into a tank taller than him, and his family came and brought him out with his arms. His father asked him if he would come to the shed, and he shook the water in his ears and said, “come again”。
The memory of the shed is not only childish but also painful. In primary school, he began participating in the daily “tampling” of the shed. The traditional earth shed is a shape near the straight angle triangle from the side. Every night, farmers need to roll down the condensed cotton at the top and roll it with grass rope the next morning. The cotton is occasionally stuck in the middle when it is given, and the zhuang movement needs to be “tucked down” with long poles to park in the middle. The cotton is heavy and the sun is sweaty。
In addition to this, the traditional earth sheds also have to clean the snow, and the film is less wind-resistant and fertilized by hand ... These painful memories of childhood are indelible, and the seeds of the innovation of greenhouse technology were born there。
After 2015, the domestic vegetable greenhouses industry is in a critical phase of upgrading. With the support of the father and the assistance of the chinese institute of agriculture, zhang hong kong gradually moved towards new greenhouses. The traditional huts have walls of up to a few metres thick, but they have relatively low temperature protection and low land use. Omega purchased autoheat patent technology from the agricultural institute and has independently developed and improved wall thickness. In 2020, new smart greenhouses were introduced, with better temperature protection, weaker walls and higher land use. The greenhouse shed is until now the best-selling greenhouse in the company。
The new smart greenhouse is a collection of “black technologies” compared to the traditional huts, with companies holding more than 80 national patents, 11 software copyrights and 4 trademarks. He lost weight to the shed, reduced the wall thickness from 78 metres to 50 centimetres, introduced medium- and medium-sized structures and multi-layer thermogenic materials, and significantly increased land use. He has also taught the shed to keep the heat autonomous. An original solar heating system, which absorbs solar energy during the day by using graphite nano-painted collector panels, heats the circulatory water and releases heat at night through the warming cycle. This technology is also a patented technology of great luck。
Most of all, he was able to automate the number of greenhouses。
The greenhouse sheds are equipped not only with an integrated system of intelligent water fertilizers and a system of intelligent ventilation, but also with automatic roller-backed cotton and robotics specializing in monitoring crop pests and diseases. These functions can be remotely controlled by mobile phones, allowing farmers to grow their vegetables using data. "the farmers of their father's generation no longer use their hands to pull cotton."
Today, these new sheds have been consolidated into 50 patented technologies, and graphite coatings have been modified eight times to adapt to extreme climates ranging from 40oc to 40oc。
On the day of the interview, luang hong finished introducing these "black technologies" in the new smart greenhouse shed, handing me a red pepper. He told me that it was a fruit chili, not spicy, to eat as fruit. It's a sweet bite. “this type was previously only available in the province of taiwan, but it has already produced 15 to 20 pounds in our shed”
"here comes the flow. We gotta catch it."
In 2016, the zhuang movement, which returned to life as a technician from outside the country, began with the sale of fruits and vegetables of the northern pumpkin. He planted a collection of “quail pears” in his shed to market the products, but the traditional distribution channels were not working well。
One day he went online with his friends and looked at the flashing qq, and he suddenly thought of using the qq group to promote products。
Zhong hong operates as china's first “indigenous people” on the internet and has a natural sense of proximity to the network. He quickly mastered the essence of the internet's outreach - private traffic。
Ten qqs have been registered by hsbc, which search the crowds every day with key words such as “street” “planting”, covering dozens of them every day. Within a short period of time, the dissemination of his quail product has reached hundreds of thousands of netizens. Later, he bought specialized grouping software and completed the manual to automation of private traffic promotion。
What surprises him is that there is a very high rate of change in this form of propaganda. In one year, from 2016 to 2017, he recruited at least 2,000 participants, and the profits from seedling sales rose sharply. When he was seen from the qq group, he moved from the line to the bottom of the line, and ordered hundreds of thousands of dollars。
Insisting on the use of private traffic to push the new farmer's path across the border. Soon after, shandong tv's agricultural channel took the initiative to find yu hong's luck, followed by lifelight tv, zodiac agricultural channel, and a central evening news story。
However, the new media path of great luck has not stopped. In 2017, hsbc began operating its own video account. The first “blasted” video of zhang luang was uploaded in 2017。
It's just a few dozen seconds of video, and it's a simple display of the "sunhouse" for internet users, and it's going to be uploaded on a short video platform after the video was added to the text. On that day, the video was over half a million, and the single video was over 5,000。
On those days, the account number of zhang luang received many questions every day in the private trust and comment area, some wondering “how much it costs to build a shed now so advanced”, and others questioning “the concept of nothing more than speculation and little value to promote”. In the face of all kinds of voices, the great fortunes are patient in explaining communication。
"here comes the flow, we have to catch it." as a new farmer, he has a natural sensitivity to the flow。
The short video platform fans witnessed china's “future perception” of agricultural technology at the account of hong kong. In front of a hut that was a few floors tall, the fans were told, “this is not for people, but for food. A three-acre greenhouse shed with conventional production capacity of up to 100 acres. This modern shed, 20 metres high, can grow dozens of layers of vegetables."
Today, the number of new media matrix fans has exceeded 5 million, promoting not only agricultural knowledge but also home-grown products. In 2019, a customer of shandong smoked a short video of his product and signed an order of over $10 million after the field trip。
In his video account, the vegetable shed was no longer merely a place for the production of vegetable guacamole, but a combination of production, tourism, research and extraction. Today, his greenhouse technology complex is visited almost every month by expert clients and by university professors with students. Tourists are also constantly coming to his greenhouses to pick up, and the quantico teams grow in them year-round anti-season fruits, such as butter strawberries and peppers, suitable for picking。
The development of agricultural technology has been lamented by some under the banner of an ambitious video account that is completely divorced from the stereotypes of traditional agriculture, which “is becoming more and more like a technology for the future, both in terms of the operation of the industry itself and in terms of perception”
With its original intent to change traditional agriculture, luang has now injected fresh blood into the industry with its own practices, modernized production methods and generated interest in agriculture among more young people. He said that pride was not paid for。
New farmer, new platform
Today, the greenhouses of the omnibus have been exported to more than 30 countries worldwide。
According to macro, the largest exports were from countries along the “one way”。
For each region, macro has designed greenhouses that are adapted to local climatic conditions. “some of them are wind-resistant, others are ventilation-oriented, others are temperature-preserving, and others are cooling exclusively through the outside sun, wind and curtains.” the zhuang hao said the temperature in the shed could be reduced from 40°c to within 30°c. The construction costs of these sheds are in the region of hundreds of thousands of dollars each, and there are often orders from abroad “one order is the whole park”。
Bogdan ilie, a horticultural engineer at the university of agricultural sciences and veterinary medicine in bucharest, romania, stated that in 2022, they had worked with the team of zhang hong kong to build greenhouses. Over the years, they have been successful in cultivating many tropical crops. Although this is the winter of bucharest, scientific research projects are continuing, thanks to a variety of tropical figs and dragon nuts that are being planted in greenhouses。
For its part, “the expansion of greenhouses to the global level to allow more countries to grow vegetables in any environment” is both a simple aspiration and a confidence in technology and modern agro-industrial chain systems。
Today, in the home country of luang hong kong, lifelight has evolved from a single export of vegetable products to export technologies, standards and chain-wide services, with more than 8,000 technicians guiding production throughout the country and over 270 vegetable parks in over 40 countries around the world. More than 30,000 local vegetable farmers now account for more than one third of the total 80, 90 and 00, and “new farmers” have become the driving force behind the development of rural rich industries。
“agriculture is not a means of poverty, as omega has said. New farmers must not only be young, but also break with traditional cultivation and make agriculture simple, efficient and income-generating.”
At present, there are up to 100 employees in agricultural technology companies in the name of the hong kong movement, 20 per cent of whom are in post-90s and post-00s. The minimum turnover of companies is rmb 100 million per year。
Behind that, it is a group of new and contemporary farmers. With their youth, they inject fresh blood into the renewal of the village and make china's smart greenhouses a “china programme” in the modernization of global agriculture。
