Unmanned smart farming takes over Xinjiang's super cotton fields
Original: In Xinjiang's super cotton fields, unmanned smart farming covers the entire plowing, planting, management, and harvest p
Xinjiang's large-scale cotton fields are now run almost entirely by unmanned smart farming technology, covering plowing, planting, management and harvesting. The system uses smart irrigation, drone patrols, AI analysis and agricultural robots, and grew from a 2021 pilot started by two young people on about 200 hectares. The story is being highlighted as an example of high-tech agriculture transforming China's cotton belt.
Why now: People are drawn to the striking scale of fully automated, robot-run cotton farming in Xinjiang and its showcase of Chinese agricultural technology.
