en.Wedoany.com Reported - China's CCTV Finance Channel and Agriculture and Rural Channel jointly focused on the spring plowing frontline in Yiyang, Hunan, reporting on the application of intelligent agricultural machinery in early rice production. In the footage, multiple Zoomlion intelligent rice transplanters shuttled back and forth in the fields, leveraging advantages such as intelligence, high efficiency, and labor-saving to solidify the foundation for a good harvest in the "Dongting Granary." Hunan, China, is one of the country's major grain-producing regions. In 2025, both the total output and yield per mu of grain in Hunan reached record highs. In the unmanned farms in Yiyang, Hunan, smart machinery and ratoon rice have formed a production combination.

In the unmanned smart farm for ratoon rice in the Datong Lake area of Yiyang, Hunan, spring plowing has entered an unmanned mode. The driverless Zoomlion intelligent rice transplanter operates autonomously, driving and transplanting automatically, requiring only one worker to place the seedling trays. Utilizing BeiDou positioning, the Zoomlion intelligent rice transplanter achieves centimeter-level precision positioning, follows predetermined routes, and accurately inserts seedlings into the soil with uniform row and plant spacing. For ratoon rice, the advantage of unmanned operation lies in the fact that the transplanting route aligns with the subsequent harvester's path, avoiding damage to the rice stubble.

He Aichun, Deputy Director of the Hongshuo Ecological Agriculture and Agricultural Machinery Cooperative in Yiyang City, Hunan Province, China, explained: "After BeiDou positioning, the unmanned transplanter achieves centimeter-level precision operation. The row spacing and plant spacing of the transplanted seedlings are very precise and uniform. It can save the labor of one driver." At the unmanned smart farm in the Datong Lake area of Yiyang City, Hunan, the Zoomlion intelligent rice transplanter drives autonomously and transplants automatically, covering an operational area of 7 mu per hour. Due to the promotion of intelligent unmanned agricultural machinery, smart unmanned farm technology now covers all stages of plowing, planting, management, and harvesting.
