Chapter 259 The Mission and Responsibility of Agricultural Machinery in International Aid

While Guangming Factory continued to promote the development of domestic agricultural machinery and actively expand the international market, Wang Dashan also keenly realized that many developing countries in the world were facing huge difficulties in the field of agricultural machinery and urgently needed international assistance to improve their agricultural production levels.

Therefore, he decided to lead Guangming Factory to actively participate in international agricultural machinery aid projects to demonstrate the mission and responsibility of Chinese enterprises.

Wang Dashan first turned his attention to some poor countries in Africa.

These countries are rich in agricultural resources, but due to long-term constraints such as economic backwardness and lack of technology, agricultural production methods are extremely backward. Farmers mostly rely on manual labor, grain production is extremely low, and it is difficult to solve the problem of food and clothing.

Wang Dashan came to Ethiopia in Africa.

Here, he had in-depth exchanges with local agricultural officials.

Mr. Abdullah, Minister of Agriculture of Ethiopia, said with a worried look on his face: "Director Wang, the current agricultural situation here is really worrying. Our farmers are very hardworking, but they lack advanced agricultural machinery, the land cultivation efficiency is low, and coupled with frequent natural disasters, grain production has not increased. We also want to change this situation, but we do not have enough funds and technology to introduce agricultural machinery."

Wang Dashan looked at the vast land outside the window and said firmly: "Minister Abdullah, our Guangming Factory is willing to provide agricultural machinery assistance to Ethiopia. We can first donate a batch of basic agricultural machinery suitable for local agricultural production conditions, such as tractors, seeders and harvesters. At the same time, we will also send a technical team here to provide free training for local farmers and technicians, teaching them how to operate and maintain these agricultural machinery."

Minister Abdullah excitedly shook Wang Dashan's hand and said, "Director Wang, this is great! Your assistance is like timely rain for us. However, we are also worried about the subsequent supply and maintenance of these agricultural machinery. Our area has inconvenient transportation and weak infrastructure. If the spare parts are not supplied in time, once the agricultural machinery breaks down, it will affect agricultural production."

Wang Dashan thought for a moment and said, "Mr. Minister, your concerns are justified. We will establish a small agricultural machinery parts reserve center in Ethiopia to stock some commonly used parts to ensure that parts can be replaced in time when agricultural machinery fails. At the same time, we will cooperate with some local companies to establish a simple agricultural machinery maintenance network and train local maintenance personnel so that they can solve some common agricultural machinery failures locally. In addition, we will also consider using modern information technology to establish a remote diagnosis and maintenance guidance system, and through network video and other means, our Guangming factory's technical experts can remotely guide local maintenance personnel to perform maintenance work."

After the aid project in Ethiopia achieved initial success, Wang Dashan turned his attention to some poor mountainous countries in Asia, such as Nepal.

Nepal is located at the southern foot of the Himalayas, with complex terrain and difficult agricultural production conditions.

In a mountain village in Nepal, Wang Dashan had a cordial conversation with local villagers.

An old village chief said helplessly: "Director Wang, there are too many mountains here, and the land is all small terraces. Ordinary agricultural machinery cannot be used at all. We can only rely on manual labor to farm, and we work hard all year round, but we can't grow much food."

Wang Dashan carefully observed the local terrain and said to the technical team: "We need to develop a small agricultural machine suitable for terraced fields in this mountainous area. This machine should be small in size, light in weight, flexible in operation, and able to travel on narrow terraced fields. For example, we can design a small hand-held tractor equipped with a special tillage device that can adapt to the slope and shape of the terraced fields."

Xiao Chen, a technician, asked: "Director Wang, how do we solve the problem of the power system of this small agricultural machinery? The energy supply in mountainous areas is relatively limited, and environmental factors must be taken into consideration."

Wang Dashan thought for a moment and said, "We can develop a hybrid system that combines a fuel engine and an electric motor. On flat roads, we can use the fuel engine to provide power to improve operating efficiency; on areas with steep slopes or where environmentally friendly operations are required, we can switch to the electric motor mode to reduce pollution emissions. At the same time, we can use the water resources in the mountains to develop some small hydroelectric power generation devices to provide energy for charging agricultural machinery."

In the aid project in Nepal, Guangming Factory not only provided agricultural machinery and technical support, but also helped local villagers improve the irrigation system.

They introduced some small water-saving irrigation equipment, such as drip pipes and micro sprinklers, and made reasonable layouts according to the terrain of the terraces, thus improving the utilization efficiency of water resources.

In the process of implementing international aid projects, Wang Dashan also faced many challenges and difficulties.

For example, cultural differences between different countries, unstable political environment, and pressure from international public opinion.

At an international agricultural aid conference, a Western representative questioned: "Director Wang, do your Chinese companies have any political purpose in providing agricultural machinery assistance to these developing countries?"

Wang Dashan replied righteously: "Our Guangming Factory's international agricultural machinery assistance is purely out of humanitarian spirit and corporate social responsibility. China has always been committed to common development with countries around the world. We hope that through our assistance, we can help these developing countries improve agricultural production levels, solve food security problems, and lift more people out of poverty. We do not have any political purpose, but are just practicing the responsibility that a company should have."
