The whole bag of garlic heads is poured into the hopper, and walks down the conveyor belt. In less than half a minute, the garlic hugged together is "separated" and one by one, they run into different bags from the discharge port.

The whole bag of garlic heads is poured into the hopper, and walks down the conveyor belt. In less than half a minute, the garlic hugged together is "separated" and one by one, they run into different bags from the discharge port. On the afternoon of October 15th, in the base of a large garlic grower in Yuhuangmiao Town, Shanghe County, Shandong Province, a garlic sorting machine, an "artifact" of garlic cloves, attracted the attention of on-site growers.

One person is responsible for feeding, and three people are responsible for receiving the divided garlic cloves at the three feeding ports. The minimum processing capacity is 1,000 catties per hour. If the garlic has less moisture, it can process 1,500 catties per hour. Everyone is impressed by the processing capacity of this machine. be surprised!

"It takes about 400 catties of garlic to plant an acre of garlic. Manually divide the petals, and one person can divide up to 100 catties a day. To plant an acre of garlic, it takes one person to work for 4 days just to divide the garlic seeds. What if you plant 300 mu?" At the scene, Liu Yong, the manager of Jinan Huaqing Agricultural Machinery Technology Co., Ltd., the manufacturer of this machine, communicated with everyone, "Now we hire people to divide the garlic seeds, 100 catties a day, and the salary is about 120 yuan, only the garlic seeds." 'It is 1.2 yuan per catty! Large-scale planting, this cost must be considered! ”

According to Chong Jun, he plans to plant 300 mu of garlic this year, and needs about 120,000 catties of garlic seeds. If all the garlic seeds are hired, the labor cost for this area alone will be close to 150,000 yuan. But he said that this is just a superficial account, because Shanghe County has a large area of garlic cultivation, and most of the farmers with labor ability grow garlic at home, so it is difficult to hire so many people even if they have money at this time. According to a grower from Tai'an, the work of dividing garlic into plants is monotonous and boring, and it hurts hands and nails. Young and strong people are unwilling to do it, and old and weak people can't do it, so it is very awkward. He believes that this is one of the problems faced by large-scale garlic cultivation, and it is also a problem that large garlic growers in the province and even all over the country are eager to solve!

Liu Yong introduced that the garlic sorting machine has actually been manufactured a few years ago and has obtained a patent. However, there were few large-scale garlic growers in the past, so it did not attract the attention of the market. Now, with the adjustment of the agricultural industry structure, labor costs The advantages of high efficiency and low cost of the machine are highlighted!

According to the on-site inspection by Chongjun on the 15th, the damage rate of the garlic sorted by the garlic sorter is less than 2%, and the electricity consumption per hour is about 7 degrees. In addition to the labor cost, the comprehensive cost of splitting a catty of garlic seeds About 0.10 yuan, only 1/12 of labor, but the efficiency is more than 35 times that of labor!

"A good helper for growing garlic in a large area is an indispensable equipment for the mechanization of garlic production!" said a large-scale garlic grower who came to observe. (Wang Xing, reporter from Rural Dazhong Daily)
