Since the start of summer, major grain-producing regions across China have been hit by successive heavy downpours, posing great challenges to the harvesting of ripe rapeseed and wheat.

Follow CCTV's lens to see how LOVOL intelligent agricultural machinery helps farmers seize fine weather and race against time for the summer harvest.

Large-scale wheat harvesting commenced in southern Henan on May 28. A fleet of LOVOL Grain God harvesters worked nonstop in wheat fields of Dengzhou, Nanyang.

Sunny weather has arrived in Zhengyang County, Zhumadian, creating a perfect window for wheat harvesting. Affected by earlier rain and strong winds, some wheat lodged. To prevent grain sprouting and mildew, fields with lodged wheat are prioritized for harvesting. CCTV reporters noticed that the height of the cutting table and driving speed directly affect grain loss and harvesting efficiency. On site, operators of LOVOL Grain God harvesters adjust the two factors in real time according to the growth status and density of wheat, shifting the focus of summer harvest from merely racing against time to pursuing high-quality harvesting.
📍 Hongtong, Shanxi

The working harvesters are equipped with the Beidou Navigation System and multi-channel image monitoring devices. Operators can check real-time operating parameters such as engine speed and travelling speed, as well as view operation tracks via mobile terminals. The intelligent management of agricultural machinery ensures precise and highly efficient field harvesting.
