Hi there! ๐ Have you ever wondered how tomatoes are planted on huge farms? ๐ In the Bayingolin Mongolian Autonomous Prefecture in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, farmers are using amazing technology to plant tomatoes super efficiently!
Thanks to the BeiDou satellite navigation system (China’s own GPS ๐ก), machines can plant tomato seedlings with perfect precision! ๐๐ฑ
Imagine planting 8,000 hectares of tomatoesโthat’s like 11,000 soccer fields! โฝ๏ธ Using special equipment guided by satellites, farmers can make sure each tomato plant is placed exactly where it should be. This helps the plants grow better and makes the farmers’ jobs easier!
It’s the perfect time to plant tomatoes, and the fields are buzzing with machines moving along pre-set routes. They keep the rows and spacing just right, which helps the tomatoes grow healthy and strong! ๐
Isn’t it cool how technology helps us grow food? Maybe one day, you’ll invent something that helps farmers too! ๐คฉ
