Agricultural machinery science and technology volunteers from all over the province visited the countryside to inspect and maintain agricultural machinery equipment in a bid to ensure a smooth start of spring plowing and a good summer grain harvest.
The volunteers visited an agricultural machinery cooperative in Huai'an and instructed the mechanics to install the rotary tiller blade.
The rotary tiller must be installed in the right direction and right order for fear that wrong installation will directly affect the operation.

Agricultural machinery volunteers
have overhauled and inspected the machines
to ensure that our cooperative's machines
can be put into the summer harvest
and planting in a good condition
At the same time
they also gave us
operational technical guidance and assistance
The spring plowing season means the peak period for the use of various agricultural machinery, and also the maintenance period for summer harvesting machines and rice seedling transplanting machines.
Agricultural machinery volunteers are responsible for overhauling and maintaining the lubrication of the harvester's bearings, the reinforcement of the internal screws of the unmanned plant protection machine, and the troubleshooting hidden dangers of the tractor's gear and clutch.

The on-site demonstration
of small agricultural machinery
allowed farmers to see
that horticultural cultivation and management
can rely on machines
and mechanized operations can release manpower
According to the Provincial Agricultural Machinery Promotion Station, Jiangsu has enlisted the help of nearly 700 volunteers in the preparation for the spring plowing season with a view to ensuring the smooth progress of mechanized farming over more than 7 million mu or 4666 square kilometers of farmland.
