For many consecutive days of high temperature weather testing farmland irrigation. On June 27, there were no few farmers in the cotton land of eight households in Jinghe County.

"In the past, the watering of cotton fields was too troublesome. You need to queue in line. Everyone stays all night, and the family consumes the ground. Now it is convenient. The farmland realizes auto -pressure drip irrigation. The water comes, which is both money and effort. "Looking at a cotton seedlings" drinking "the flowing water flow, Jia Haichang, a farm grower in Jinghe County, said happily.

"In the past, there were often quarreling to use water to pour land. Since the farmland has achieved self -pressure drip irrigation, this situation has gone, and the phenomenon of large water irrigation is gone. Farmers no longer have to worry about watering for land." Li Jie, deputy secretary of the eight households, said.

In recent years, Jinghe County has vigorously promoted agricultural efficient water -saving and field water -saving technology to improve the efficiency of water use. In 2019, Jinghe County implemented the continuous construction of the medium -sized irrigation district and water -saving reconstruction project. All the channels to the fields were fully tuned, and the "three highs, high electricity costs, high management expenses" with high voltage drops of water supply in the canal system in the past "The phenomenon uses pipeline water supply self -pressure droplets and irrigation technology to allow the crops to" drink "" tap water ".

"Through the construction of the project in recent years, 90%of the farmland of Jinghe County has achieved self -pressure drip irrigation, which not only improves the efficiency of water consumption, but also saves manpower and financial resources." Chen Fei, director of the engineering stocks of the Water Conservancy Management Office of Jinghe County, said, Chen Fei said, " The project adopts an integrated gate remote control system and channel cross -section automatic flow measurement system. Managers need only one mobile phone to remotely control 20,000 acres of crops in the town.

"Now not only is it convenient to use water, but also saves time, effort and money. I can save 10,000 yuan in water for more than 500 acres of cotton." Jia Haichang calculated a account: In the past 700 cubic meters, now the water -saving irrigation only costs 350 cubic meters to 450 cubic meters after water -saving irrigation, and the water cost per mu can save 15 yuan to 20 yuan.

"In the next step, we will strive to scientifically convert water, pipe water, water and water protection in accordance with the law, and promote the use of water use methods from a low -efficiency type to a integrated savings. The Dahe River Irrigation District has fully implemented channelization and automation, continuously promoting the modernization of water conservancy, and providing strong water supply safety guarantee for the high -quality development of Jinghe County's economic and social development. "Said Song Honggang, deputy director of the Water Conservancy Management Office of Jinghe County.
