"Bee Man" Lao Tan's sweet road to poverty alleviation

Introduction to saves time and effort and opens a new mode of beekeeping!

Tan Ganping of Yehe Town, Zhongxian County, Chongqing is almost obsessed with beekeeping. He leads the town's beekeeping team to collect 50,000 catties of honey a year, and has been on the headlines of major media.

Zhongxian was once a poor county. In recent years, it has been out of poverty by relying on the honey industry. In 2020, the number of bee colonies in Chongqing will reach 1.5 million.

But compared to the honey industry in many districts and counties that have died, Zhongxian can really rely on it to get rid of poverty and become rich. Why?

The answer is not to rely on one family to make a small mess, but to rely on professional teams and advanced technology to ensure the production and quality of honey.

Originally, the town cooperated with Alibaba Cloud Feixiang Industrial Internet Platform, introduced the "Alibaba Cloud IoT + Blockchain Traceability" smart beekeeping technology, deployed smart beehives, video surveillance, environmental monitoring poles, large data screens and other equipment and blocks Chain traceability platform, production and sales collaborative traceability platform. These "new farm tools" have increased the output value of a single box of honey by 30%, and the overall production efficiency has increased by 80%, bringing an output value of 5 million yuan, and also solved the honey trust problem caused by the proliferation of "fake honey".

Lao Tan, known as the "beeman", has more than 30 years of traditional beekeeping experience, but he is not standing still. He said that with new technology, one should not be obsessed with tradition. Only technology and inheritance will enable the apiculture industry to go further and to a higher level.

Lan Jun, a college student in the beekeeping team, said: The site for beekeeping is generally in the mountains, and the surroundings are off the beaten track. Traditional beekeepers often go to various places to step on, so it is really bitter. But now with the Alibaba Cloud IoT technology digital beehive, it also supports solar energy. At home, you can use your mobile phone to remotely control the beehive situation in the wild through the camera. Compare which place is better, and you don't have to collect points as hard as before. In addition, the beehive is also equipped with GPS positioning, so you are not afraid of losing it.

Smart beehives not only have the functions of traditional beehives, but also integrate intelligent automatic control, AI recognition, edge computing, data analysis, etc., supporting IoT bee big data platform and other intelligent equipment of bee farms, providing abnormal fast identification, dynamic monitoring, abnormal alarm, and precision Control, emergency dispatch and other functions. For example, there is a card reader on the bee gate, which can observe the data, and you can see at a glance how many bees come in and how many bees come out.

Now Lao Tan can use big data to monitor the honey collection and weather conditions of bees on mobile phones, which reduces the frequency of beekeepers opening the box, reduces the labor intensity of beekeepers, reduces labor costs, and realizes intelligent beekeeping and intelligent production. , Consumption customization, build a green beekeeping ecology.
