From 'One Seed' to 'Harvest of Ten Thousand Acres'

As the main soybean producing area in the autonomous region, Hulunbuir City in Inner Mongolia relies on its unique geographical advantages as one of the highest latitude 

soybean planting areas in China, with a soybean planting area of over 13.96 million mu, exceeding the task assigned by the autonomous region this year. A total of 61 excellent 

soybean varieties have been developed in the city, including 8 Chinese approved varieties. At the same time, 8 "Watching and Selecting Seeds" platforms are promoting 228 

varieties of crops, including soybeans, providing a solid variety foundation for the high yield and high quality of soybeans.

In recent years, Hulunbuir City has aimed to build a demonstration zone for the soybean industry in the entire region, integrating and linking funds with industry integration project 

funds, and constructing a complete industrial chain of planting, processing, storage, and sales in areas such as Molidawa Daur Autonomous Banner, Oroqen Autonomous 

Banner, Arong Banner, and Zhalantun City. Led by soybean deep processing enterprises, it drives the vigorous development of the entire industry and forms a good trend of 

industrial development. From ensuring quality at the source of cultivation, to processing to increase added value, to scientific storage to ensure stable quality, and finally to selling 

soybeans to the whole country and even the world.

Stabilize grain, expand beans, increase production and income

This year, the grain yield improvement project fully implemented by Hulunbuir City is a practice of deep integration of technology and agriculture. By integrating and promoting 

good fields, varieties, opportunities, and methods, we will focus on joint breeding research and achieve the transformation of 42 scientific and technological achievements. In 

soybean cultivation, our city accurately grasps the agricultural season and plants soybeans during the high yield period. During the middle plowing period, strict control of field 

management is implemented to reduce pesticide usage, while foliar fertilizer is sprayed to promote early maturity. Under the scientific application of agricultural machinery and 

technology, soybean production capacity has achieved new breakthroughs.

Molidawa Daur Autonomous Banner, known as the "hometown of soybeans", is the county-level administrative region with the highest soybean production in China. The annual 

soybean production in the entire banner is over 1.5 billion kilograms. This year, the soybean planting area in the banner has reached 5.22 million acres.

The flag always keeps in mind the important task of strengthening agriculture, constantly explores more efficient models in land management, vigorously promotes advanced 

technologies such as corn soybean rotation, large ridge dense planting cultivation, autumn deep loosening and land preparation, and conservation tillage. In the sowing process, 

we pursue high standards, precision, and high quality. Fertilizer spraying is carefully implemented at critical time points during soybean growth, such as seedling stage, initial 

flowering, fruiting, and grain filling. At the same time, the "one spray, multiple promotion" unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) plant protection operation and mechanical weed control 

technology will be put into use. These measures are like weaving a tight protective net for soybean growth, ensuring the vigorous growth of soybeans and consolidating the 

foundation of a bountiful harvest.

Empowering technology to create a 'rich' landscape

As a major agricultural city, Zhalantun City deeply implements the concept of "reducing losses is increasing income", and carries out a four level linkage action of saving grain and

 reducing losses in the city, rural areas, and households.

In the harvesting process, the city controls the harvest loss rate of soybean combine harvesters within 5%; The comprehensive loss rate of segmented harvesting should be 

controlled within 3%; The machine harvest loss rate of corn kernels should be controlled within 4%. At the same time, on the basis of fully respecting the wishes of farmers, 

tailored policies will be implemented to guide farmers to carry out scientific grain storage and explore a three-dimensional grain storage model in the courtyard. According to the 

principle of "three preventions, two separations, and one control", guide farmers to build storage equipment such as steel screens and corn stacks, achieve off ground ventilation 

for grain storage, and ensure grain quality.

Zhalantun City actively promotes the application of new technologies and improves the technological level of agricultural machinery and equipment. The application of Beidou 

navigation seeding, harvesting and other operation monitoring terminals has been scientifically utilized here, achieving the organic integration of human, machine, technology and

system. Efforts have been made in various aspects of machine harvesting and loss reduction, and a new path for increasing income has been explored. According to the 

agricultural situation dispatch, as of October 15th, the total autumn harvest area in Zhalantun City was 1.3826 million mu, of which the soybean harvest area was 998300 mu, 

accounting for 80.6% of the planting area that year. This is a strong reflection of the city's autumn harvest achievements.

Hulunbuir Nongken Najitun Farm Company is also an important participant in this soybean harvest feast. This year, the company has achieved a bumper harvest of 38000 acres 

of soybeans, with an average yield of 370 kilograms per acre and a maximum yield of 520 kilograms per acre. These figures are supported by advanced agricultural technology. 

The company adopts a large ridge double row planting mode, introduces and selects high-quality soybean varieties, uses advanced equipment, and promotes stable and 

increased soybean production through measures such as reasonable density reduction and nitrogen fixation through fertilization. Modern scientific management technology is 

applied to promote soybean production.

Before soybean harvesting, the company carefully planned, scientifically deployed, comprehensively and meticulously inspected the land numbers, adopted segmented 

harvesting methods for plots with inconsistent maturity, and formulated detailed harvesting plans. And at the same time as harvesting, autumn soil preparation work is carried out 

simultaneously to make sufficient preparations for spring sowing next year.

The soybean harvest in Hulunbuir presents a beautiful picture of modern agriculture. From variety breeding to field management, from harvesting and reducing losses to scientific 

grain storage, every link reflects the advanced concepts and technologies of modern agriculture. Every soybean here carries the heavy responsibility of food security; Every 

soybean field here is an experimental field for the integration of technology and agriculture. In the future, our city will continue to accelerate the promotion and application of new 

modern agricultural technologies and products, continuously promote the improvement of agricultural quality and efficiency, increase agricultural production and farmers' income, 

and move towards the goal of building an important national agricultural product production base. We will write a Hulunbuir chapter in the work of agriculture, rural areas, and 

farmers in the new era.
