The planned application of Beidou satellite navigation system in the agricultural field continues to deepen, becoming a good helper for farmers to increase production and income, and improve efficiency.Data shows that compared with traditional agricultural machinery, Beidou satellite navigation autonomous driving tractors rely on intelligent technology to ensure operational quality and improve operational efficiency, resulting in a 30% increase in daily operating volume for a single agricultural machinery compared to manual driving.In Beijing, the straight-line positioning accuracy of unmanned tractors based on Beidou can reach 2.5 centimeters.In Shanghai, relying on the Beidou unmanned rice transplanter to achieve automatic transfer and adding optimization functions to path planning, the coverage rate of unmanned rice transplanter operations can reach 95%.

    In Hubei, unmanned rice transplanters based on Beidou can complete transplanting operations for at least 60 acres of rice fields in a day, which is 30 times more efficient than traditional operations.According to the official website of Beidou, in Jinan, Shandong, autonomous driving assisted harvesters equipped with Beidou terminals have been deeply assisting local harvesting operations. The harvester cab has a touch sensitive LCD display screen, which provides a clear view of agricultural machinery operation data and other information.In the unmanned farm in Ningxiang City, Hunan Province, the unmanned plant protection machine loaded with Beidou terminal can achieve precise positioning, providing more possibilities for unmanned farms and making farming easier for farmers. As of now, Changsha has installed a total of 2017 sets of Beidou terminals on various agricultural machinery and equipment such as tractors, combine harvesters, rice transplanters, and unmanned plant protection machines.In addition to agriculture, Beidou navigation is also contributing increasing value in fields such as space services, emergency search and rescue, disaster relief, power dispatch, communication, forest fire prevention, meteorological forecasting, hydrological monitoring, and marine fisheries.
