In Linxia Hui autonomous prefecture in Northwest China's Gansu province, farmers are using a smart greenhouse to control temperature, humidity, and irrigation automatically, aiming for a productive harvest.
Linxia has been focusing on upgrading and modernizing agriculture in recent years to make it more intensive and efficient.
The local government has leveraged geographical and resource advantages and implemented new development models.
The State Grid's Linxia Power Supply Co. has been providing a stable power supply for electric farm equipment.
The company dispatches staff to collect farmers' electricity needs and has opened "green channels" for applications for new rural power supply projects.
