Anhui is a major wheat-producing region in China. Every mid-season, the golden waves of wheat, the roaring machinery, and the bustling figures on the land of Huizhou create a lively scene. Amidst the constant flow of people, a man from Northeast China stands out with his dark complexion and distinctive Northeast dialect, always ready to add a touch of humor to your conversation.
Gao Zhichen, a native of Zhao Dong, Heilongjiang Province, has been leading cross-regional straw operation teams for four years. Before taking the lead, Old Gao always worked solo, using machines that were not fixed, and fell into quite a few pitfalls. Regarding the working conditions at that time, Old Gao humorously said, "Good jobs, no good cars, work a bit and they break down." It's easy to see Old Gao's frustration with the instability of the aircraft at the time. In 2018, with a try-it-out mindset, Old Gao purchased two Dewo round baling machines and began to assemble his own team. After a year of experimentation, the performance of the Dewo machines gave Old Gao confidence, and he started to purchase more and integrate the same brand's machines into his team. Currently, Old Gao has purchased eight Dewo round balers himself and has absorbed eight personal machines, forming a stable cross-regional team of 16 machines.

Lao Gao said, "This package machine is like a well-suited weapon; isn't Sun Wukong famous for his Golden staff? With such favorable conditions, don't you think we should choose a good machine and work hard for a few years?"
In recent years, the state has promoted the removal of straw from farmland and provided policy support. At the same time, the demand for straw in livestock breeding and biomass power generation has been increasing. This has led to rapid development in the straw industry, allowing a new generation of farmers like Old Gao to enjoy the benefits of rural development, fueled by their determination and the assistance of fully automated packaging machines.
