ERA Agriculture | ERA high-standard farmland solutions build a “cultivation” foundation for agricultural development

Anyang, the ancient capital of the Yellow River, once suffered from drought and flood. Today, under the winter sun, the Guangrunpo high-standard farmland demonstration area in Anyang, Henan Province is neatly arranged, which is not only an ecological landscape, but also a safety line. The “unmanned farm” uses the Internet of Things and artificial intelligence technologies to achieve unmanned farming, planting, management and harvesting around the clock. This transformation is inseparable from the support of the intelligent water management system. And it relies on the solid foundation laid by more than 109 kilometers of ERA pipelines.

Jiangsu Yancheng Suken Demonstration Farm, Inner Mongolia Daqi High-standard Farmland, Zhangzhou Sugarcane Planting Water-fertilizer Integration Project, Jiangsu Taizhou Modern Agriculture Demonstration Park, Shanghai Qingpu Unmanned Farm, Jiangsu Yancheng Dongtai High-standard Farmland...ERA’s high-standard farmland footprint is spread all over the country. This is a reflection of ERA’s continuous innovation in the field of agriculture. And it is also a strong proof of ERA’s high-quality solutions, high-performance products, and efficient services.

01 High standards —— Build high-quality solutions

Traditional irrigation pipelines are redundant in design, waste water resources, and have high costs. High-standard farmland has become the development trend of agricultural irrigation in recent years. ERA has conducted in-depth research on agricultural application scenarios, and developed and designed agricultural irrigation pipes, fittings, and irrigation equipment based on demand and national standards. It has developed system solutions such as water-fertilizer integrated technology systems, artesian water irrigation system, earth pond shed breeding systems, circulating water breeding systems, and pig, cattle, and poultry sewage treatment systems. It integrates energy-saving and environmental protection concepts into the system to build a “cultivation” foundation for agricultural development.

Among them, the water-fertilizer integrated system is a highly efficient irrigation and fertilization technology recognized at home and abroad, and is known as the "No. 1 technology" in modern agriculture. The ERA water-fertilizer integrated technology system is a mature high-standard farmland solution that integrates irrigation and fertilization. The system uses intelligent control equipment to match the water and fertilizer requirements of crops, and delivers them to each crop evenly, regularly, and quantitatively. It accurately controls the irrigation and fertilization process, meets the water and nutrient requirements of crops throughout the growth cycle, and improves irrigation efficiency.

The ERA water-fertilizer integrated system not only avoids the pollution of soil and groundwater by fertilizers in traditional fertilization methods, but also achieves the effects of saving fertilizer and water, saving labor and time, saving electricity, and increasing production through real-time monitoring and intelligent management. It realizes efficient utilization of water and fertilizer resources and has wide adaptability, suitable for various types of crops.

02 High standards —— Improving the benefits of ecological agriculture

Pipeline network, filtration, valve control and sprinkler irrigation are important components of high-standard farmland solutions, and are the basis for achieving energy conservation, environmental protection, efficient irrigation and high crop yields. ERA insists on excellence in every link, and provides solid support for the construction and development of high-standard farmland through technological innovation and product optimization, helping to improve the quality and efficiency of agriculture.

○ Pipe network

Pipes and fittings are an important part of the entire irrigation system. In combination with the green and environmental protection needs of high-standard farmland, as well as material characteristics, operating costs, and construction difficulties, ERA strictly selects lead-free energy-saving and environmentally friendly pipes and fittings such as PVC-U, PE, and PP. It helps crops grow healthily. The inner wall is smooth, the water flow resistance is small, and the drainage speed is fast. It effectively prevents blockage problems, ensures the stability of drainage, and improves drainage efficiency. The connection method is simple, the installation is fast and the cost is low. Improve efficiency and save labor.

○  Filtration

The mesh filter series greatly improves the filtration performance through the unique filter weaving technology. The innovative self-cleaning nozzle design can be cleaned by rotating the handle. A variety of specifications and sizes can be freely combined, suitable for complex agricultural production environments.

The laminated filter series combines surface filtration and depth filtration, and the innovative laminated technology allows the filter to reach the micron level in filtration accuracy. The filter element is easy to disassemble and clean, and is suitable for a variety of nozzle sizes to meet the needs of various scenarios.

○ Valve control

The hydraulic control valve is regulated between the main valve and the needle valve or pilot valve to achieve multiple functions such as automatic water level control, pressure reduction, pressure relief, pressure holding, regulation, check, water hammer elimination, switch, etc. The Y-type valve body has a large flow rate and small head loss, and is suitable for a variety of connection methods for easy installation and maintenance. The valve head is made of polymer material, with a delicate structure and acid and alkali resistance. It achieves more precise and softer control through the ultra-durable flexible diaphragm and guide valve core.

○ Sprinkler Irrigation

ERA sprinkler head series products include rocker arm sprinkler heads and medium-distance/butterfly sprinkler heads. They are highly mechanized, more evenly irrigated, and more adaptable to terrain. They are especially suitable for permeable soils to achieve rapid irrigation. The spray amplitude and range can be flexibly adjusted. By increasing air humidity and reducing field temperature, the field climate during agricultural production can be effectively adjusted to create better conditions for crop growth.

With policy support, high-standard farmland projects have sprung up, providing strong support for China’s grain production goals. ERA will also integrate scientific and technological wisdom into the fields, continuously explore higher standards and more systematic solutions, and promote the modernization of agriculture.
