Is there any market prospect for the development of Internet+agriculture?

1, Discrimination of the Concept of Smart Agriculture

Smart agriculture is a new agricultural production mode and comprehensive solution that deeply integrates the new generation of information technology with agricultural decision-making, production, circulation and trading. Through the comprehensive connection of people, machines and materials, on the one hand, the whole process of agricultural production is monitored and managed, and the technology flow, capital flow, talent flow and logistics are driven by data to realize more high-end, intelligent and green agricultural product planting, management, harvesting, storage and processing. On the other hand, we should open up supply and demand channels, build a fast, efficient and accurate agricultural production and marketing ecosystem, reshape the two-way interaction between agriculture and consumers, and build a brand-new production service system covering the whole industrial chain and value chain of agriculture.

Smart agriculture is not a simple application of new generation information technology in agriculture. It has richer connotation and extension. It is not only a concrete and systematic presentation of digital, networked and intelligent transformation of agriculture, but also a new format and industry, which will reshape the production form, supply chain and industrial chain and have great potential in promoting agricultural quality improvement and efficiency, cost reduction and efficiency improvement, and green and safe development.

2. The demand of smart agriculture for precision planting

Digital technologies such as 5G, AI, big data, cloud computing and Internet of Things make agricultural crop monitoring a reality. Agriculture no longer depends on the weather, and we are entering the era of intelligent agriculture. As early as the 1990s, American farms have formed a modern agricultural production system, relying on automated and intelligent agricultural machinery and equipment to ensure efficient and accurate sowing, spraying, fertilization and harvesting. Nowadays, this kind of precision agriculture characterized by scale and mechanization has also been realized in a few major grain producing areas and large state-owned farms in China, but it is not suitable for those more diversified and high value-added precision planting types, such as fruits and vegetables. Therefore, the types of precision agriculture are gradually enriched, such as intensive and high-yield greenhouse planting routes and fine artificial management of ecological plantations. Similarly, the connotation of precision agriculture is also rich. With the application of new sensors, Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, big data and other technologies, precision agriculture is moving towards smart agriculture.

At present, intelligent technology is mainly used in two scenes of Dachuan greenhouse in China.

3. The demand of smart agriculture for precision agriculture.

In recent years, great changes have taken place in the poultry industry in China. On the one hand, due to the "non-plague", the stock plummeted, and the pork gap and pig price rose for a long time; On the other hand, with the increase of market demand, the production capacity of poultry breeding industry has expanded dramatically. In this regard, pig-raising enterprises are inevitably faced with an increase in personnel demand, especially those enterprises that have switched from raising pigs to raising chickens. The demand for personnel is difficult to meet, and the production management can't keep up with it in time, which leads to the contradiction between management methods and animal health and welfare under the double oppression of market and disease, and the overall production level of poultry enterprises continues to decline.

In this context, the use of intelligent technology to achieve intelligent farming is promising. Through the Internet of Things, environmental data and the growth index of each poultry can be detected, diseases can be prevented and controlled in time, and intelligent feeding can be realized, which can not only help poultry breeding enterprises (farms) to achieve refined management, but also promote the evolution of poultry ecosystem.

At present, the demand for intelligent technology in China's agricultural breeding process is mainly reflected in environmental monitoring, disease monitoring and prevention, growth index monitoring, cost reduction and so on.

4. Smart agriculture is an important development direction of agriculture.

China is a big agricultural country, and developing efficient and safe modern ecological agriculture is the goal of agricultural modernization in China. However, with the rapid growth of population, the reduction of cultivated land and the acceleration of urbanization, the challenges faced by agriculture are becoming increasingly severe. Using intelligent time to build intelligent agriculture can improve labor productivity, resource utilization rate and land output rate, enhance agricultural anti-risk ability, ensure national food security and ecological security, and realize agricultural sustainable development. There is no doubt that agricultural intelligence will become an important development direction of agriculture in the future.

In the long run, intelligent agriculture is an important way to solve the contradiction between man and land in China. At present, smart agriculture is mostly used in agricultural production, and new technologies are used to realize the refinement and intelligence of agricultural production. With the in-depth application of China's smart agriculture, China's smart agriculture will further develop in a refined, intelligent, intensive and scientific direction, and promote the quality improvement and efficiency improvement of agricultural products.

In 20021year, the market size of smart agriculture in China was about 68.5 billion yuan. According to the forward-looking forecast, the market scale of smart agriculture will maintain a medium-high speed development. According to the preliminary calculation of the compound annual growth rate of 10%, the market size of smart agriculture in China will be 75.4 billion yuan in 2022, and it is expected to reach121400 million yuan in 2027.
