"To promote agricultural modernization, it is necessary to cultivate a high-quality, skilled, and service-oriented team of agricultural machinery talents. Organizing and carrying out agricultural machinery operation skills competitions is an important measure to build a team of agricultural machinery operation talents and improve the ability and level of agricultural machinery operators." Sun Maoyong, the chief clerk of Sixian Agricultural Machinery Bureau, introduced.
This competition is committed to building a multi-party interactive and exchange platform for government, enterprises, and operators. As a co organizer, Sizhou Tractor Manufacturing Co., Ltd. showcased excellent product performance while providing competition machinery, and brought the latest research and development achievement - unmanned tractors - to the competition site. The participating contestants demonstrated the craftsmanship spirit of serving agriculture, rural areas, and farmers in the new era, promoting the overall professional level of agricultural machinery drivers in the county.
"Through this competition, we have also made many friends, and we have left contact information for each other. If we have business, we can cooperate with each other. This year, our cooperative has introduced new types of agricultural machinery equipment, and the work projects and work areas will be greatly improved compared to last year." said Wang Gang from the Duanyun Agricultural Machinery Cooperative in Sixian County.
As a major agricultural and agricultural machinery county, Sixian has entered an accelerated transformation period of agricultural mechanization development from "large" to "strong". Last year, the comprehensive mechanization level of cultivation, planting, and harvesting of major crops in the county was 86.83%, and it was awarded the title of "National Demonstration County for Fully Mechanized Production of Major Crops". This year, the Agricultural Equipment Industrial Park in Sixian County will be completed and put into operation, and the agricultural machinery industry chain will be further extended. The advantages of the agricultural machinery industry cluster will be further highlighted, providing a continuous source of power for achieving agricultural modernization.
"In the process of modern agricultural development, professional agricultural machinery workers have played a crucial role. Agricultural machinery workers are not only outstanding among farmers, but also a backbone force in promoting agricultural and rural development. We will vigorously cultivate new types of professional farmers, create high-quality agricultural machinery craftsmen, make agricultural machinery workers a respected profession, and make agriculture a promising industry." said Wei Chenghui, member of the Standing Committee of the Sixian County Committee, Minister of Propaganda, and Chairman of the Federation of Trade Unions.
