In the context of rural revitalization planning, the realization of agricultural modernization is particularly important, and agricultural mechanization is an important part of the construction of modern agriculture. Recently, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs issued the "Fourteenth Five-Year Plan for the Development of National Agricultural Mechanization", clarifying that by 2025, the total power of agricultural machinery in the country will be stabilized at about 1.1 billion kilowatts, and the comprehensive mechanization rate of crop cultivation and harvest will reach 75%. Production counties (cities, districts) have basically achieved agricultural mechanization. The comprehensive mechanization rate of crop cultivation and harvest in hilly and mountainous counties (cities, districts) has reached 55%, and the overall mechanization rate of facility agriculture, animal husbandry, aquaculture, and primary processing of agricultural products has reached more than 50%.

The "Plan" pointed out that China's agricultural production has shifted from relying mainly on human and animal power to mainly relying on mechanical power, and has entered a new era dominated by mechanization. During the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, the work on agriculture, rural areas and farmers has entered a new stage of comprehensively promoting rural revitalization and accelerating agricultural and rural modernization, putting forward new and more urgent requirements for agricultural mechanization, and also bringing new development opportunities for agricultural mechanization. It is necessary to deepen the supply-side structural reform of agricultural mechanization, focus on making up for shortcomings, strengths and weaknesses, and promote coordination, vigorously promote the integration of mechanization and agronomic systems, intelligent information technology, agricultural operation methods, and farmland construction, and lead and promote the innovation of agricultural machinery and equipment. Develop, enlarge and strengthen the industrial chain of agricultural mechanization industrial clusters, and accelerate the development of agricultural mechanization to a full-scale, high-quality and efficient process.

The task of developing China's agricultural modernization is arduous, and the road ahead is still long and long. The "Plan" emphasizes that we must adhere to the center, serve the overall situation, adhere to policy support, market leadership, adhere to innovation-driven, coordinated development, adhere to systematic planning and coordinated advancement, strengthen policy measures to support development, and strive to improve the level of mechanization in the whole process of food crop production. Develop the mechanization of cash crop production, accelerate the development of mechanization of livestock and aquaculture, actively promote the mechanization of the primary processing of agricultural products, accelerate the filling of the shortcomings of agricultural mechanization in hilly and mountainous areas, accelerate the promotion of intelligent and green agricultural mechanization, and expand and strengthen the industrial chain of agricultural mechanization industry clusters , Effectively strengthen the safety management of agricultural machinery.
