IRRI and smart agriculture technology leader XAG collaborate to promote digital agriculture and precision farming in the Philippines

LOS BAÑOS, Philippines, Jan. 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The International Rice Research Institute (IRRI) and smart agriculture technology leader XAG are set to accelerate agricultural automation and innovation in the Philippines through digital agriculture and precision farming using drone technology.  Through a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), IRRI and XAG will collaborate to validate the application of smart agriculture technologies in rice-based cropping systems through experimentation and research. XAG and IRRI collaborate to promote agricultural automation in rice farming XAG, through its Philippine partner Agridom, has donated agricultural drones to the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI) to support its mission of advancing precision agriculture and sustainable farming practices. Agridom pioneered the introduction of XAG agricultural drones in the Philippines, bringing cutting-edge technology to local farmers and institutions. This collaboration with IRRI demonstrates Agridom's unwavering commitment to driving agricultural innovation and empowering the sector with tools that enhance productivity and sustainability. "Drones have been increasingly used for high throughput phenotyping, crop monitoring, improving agricultural productivity, and supporting precision farming. By providing efficient tools for crop monitoring, precision input application, and data-driven decision-making, drones provide the potential to significantly reduce costs and increase yields, optimizing resource use and minimizing environmental impact," explained IRRI Senior Scientist and Digital Agriculture and Precision Farming Lead Engr. Steve Klassen. This meant that drones could rapidly provide measurements of traits related to growth, yield, and stress adaptation. This technology is particularly valuable to smallholder farmers who must improve their productivity and reduce production costs to be competitive and stay in business in response to climate change, labor shortages, and higher input costs. However, drone adoption in the Philippines is hindered by limited access to technology, lack of standard protocols, financial resources, and regulatory constraints. "To overcome these challenges, we need a comprehensive approach that involves targeted training, guidelines for best practices, financial incentives, and supportive government policies.", Klassen said. Klassen's team is also working with the Philippine Department of Agriculture (DA) - National Program, Philippine Rice Research Institute (PhilRice), and their allied bureaus on the Drones4Rice Project, which aims to streamline and standardize drone protocols for applying seeds, fertilizers, and pesticides in the Philippines. The donated drones will support the ongoing Drones4Rice project and other IRRI global initiatives on sustainable farming and digital accelerators. "IRRI is a key research and technology partner in the Philippines, and through this effort, we hope to contribute to the country's agricultural competitiveness through drone-based technologies." shared XAG Head of International Business Wei Tong. "XAG's agricultural drones can be applied to various precision farming scenarios, specifically but not limited to direct seeding, pesticide spraying, fertilizer operation, and remote sensing. We hope to expand our engagements abroad to strengthen global food security and tackle climate change, as rice is the primary staple food that feeds over half of the world's population.", Tong shared. Beyond this collaboration, XAG is also a member of the IRRI-led Direct Seeded Rice Consortium (DSRC), which promotes direct seeding methods in rice cultivation by developing technologies and training farmers to adopt sustainable farming practices.

Bananas hanging onto drones: See how the low-altitude economy matches with agriculture

BEIJING, Jan. 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- A news report from China.org.cn on China's low-altitude economy:  Bananas hanging onto drones: See how the low-altitude economy matches with agriculture As sunset dawns upon the mountains, some drones are still shuttling assiduously. While, hanging onto them, are nothing but bundles of freshly picked bananas. The video of drones and the dangling bananas has gone viral on Chinese social media. Many netizens exclaimed: "So, this is how we use drones now?" Actually, this is not the drones' debut in China's agriculture. Since the first commercial plant protection drone in 2010, drones have played an increasingly pivotal role in this field, most often shouldering protection work such as pesticide spraying, just like its initial role in agriculture. Huang Rixie, a farmer from Guangxi province tried drones for the first time last year for the end-to-end plant protection of his mangos, which turned out to be a pleasing experience: What used to take four days and six workers, was finished within one day by drones. Thanks to the precision and efficiency of drones, pests and diseases were effectively prevented before their high-occurrence rainy season, guaranteeing Huang a big harvest, with a nearly 25% increase in production per mu compared to the previous year. Besides, using drones instead of manpower can effectively protect farmers from the poisonous effect of pesticides. According to a drone pilot from Yunnan, when people spray pesticides manually, they must wear layer after layer for protection, with face masks and hats on; when the heat is grilling, it's hard to keep garments on. Many workers are also allergic to the chemicals. "Now with a drone, all our troubles are gone." As the technology iterates, the need for the more customized and intelligent application of drones has also been rising. Nowadays, agricultural drones can be used in more scenarios, such as targeted sowing, fertilizing, monitoring plant growth, as well as sending alarms and rescuing. What we mentioned at the beginning is using drones for transportation. In the past, the difficult terrain in mountainous areas poses challenges for agricultural machines, so manpower is the only way to ship the products out. Such low efficiency is compounded by the risk of injury — the carriers tend to be fairly aged, and too heavy a bag may lead to falls that cause harm to both people and fruits. But with drone transportation, the chances of bruising fruits went down by two-thirds. Last year, Zigui County, which is famous for agriculture, saved local farmers 30 million RMB by using drone transportation alone. Technology has brought welfare to the people. Up flew bananas and oranges, and down went the weight on people's backs in mountains. Dropped down were seeds, fertilizers and pesticides, and soaring high are yields, efficiency and profits. The advent and now prevalent application of drones have meant more methods and opportunities for those in the agricultural sector, both traditional and new. In 2024, the "low-altitude economy" was written into the Report on the Work of the Government for the first time. It indicates continuous efforts in this regard, supporting the high-quality and integrated development of the "low-altitude economy" that has lit up other fields including agriculture.

Xinhua Silk Road: Experts meet in Beijing to review research reports on agriculture and animal husbandry sustainability

BEIJING, Dec. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Experts from fields such as rural development, rural economy, green development, and Chinese dairy giant Mengniu Group met on Monday in Beijing to review results of a research project on practices and policies concerning the effective combination of ecological protection compensation mechanism and the mechanism for realizing the value of ecological products to promote sustainable development of agriculture and animal husbandry. The experts examined a research report on the practices and policies on the topic and another report on relevant case studies released by China Economic Information Service. The first report provides an in-depth analysis of the theories, policies, mechanisms, models, approaches and solutions related to the effective combination of ecological protection compensation and value realization of ecological products, while the second one sorts out practices of six representative regions, including Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region and provinces of Gansu, Guizhou, Sichuan, Yunnan, and Qinghai, and summarizes their experiences, the research group introduced. In general, the reports cover a wide range of contents, presenting valuable findings and policy recommendations based on these findings, said Du Zhixiong, deputy director of the Rural Development Institute Chinese Academy of Social Science (RDI). The reports provide China's new practices and models in the field of ecological protection compensation and a summary of approaches to agriculture and animal husbandry sustainable development, stated Zhang Zhaoxin, a researcher with the rural economy research center of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, who also suggested further research on this issue in future. Sustainable development of agriculture and animal husbandry requires efforts from both governments and the society, Liu Changquan, a researcher with the RDI expressed his view, adding that the reports have probed into the issue. Saying the reports detail practical explorations of ecological protection compensation and value realization of ecological products in boosting agriculture and animal husbandry sustainability, Yu Xiaolong, senior project director of the BRI International Green Development Coalition (BRIGC) looked forward to wide dissemination of the research findings. The research project was launched with support from Mengniu Group's public welfare foundation, which carries out public welfare and charity activities mainly related to emergency and disaster relief, rural revitalization, nutrition empowerment, and ecological protection.
