A farmer in the United States planted 3000 mu of land and produced 150 tons of grain. Why isn't there such a big farm in China?

The Mississippi plain in the United States can be said to be a large plain. Farmers can plant 3000 mu of grain and produce it all by mechanization, but there is no such big farm in our country. The only farm is in the northeast.

Different national conditions have caused different agricultural organization modes, because our country has many hilly areas in terms of natural environment, and there are few endless plains like the Great Plains of the United States. Therefore, if you want to become a big farm, you must first have topographical things, which are more suitable for the small-scale peasant economy, that is, intensive cultivation, so that the output is higher, but the manpower and material resources needed will be greater. This is not something that farmers can change if they want to change. They can only use some small mechanized equipment, such as automatic sowing and related automatic spraying equipment, but it still needs large-scale participation of manpower.

From the market point of view, there is no possibility of such large-scale farm planting in our country. One is. The market of mechanical equipment is not so big, because there are not so many people who need such large mechanical equipment, and the development of mechanical equipment is still limited. Large-scale agricultural planting machinery and equipment in the United States are very developed. They can spray drugs by plane and harvest them uniformly with large combine harvesters. Although there are some losses in grain, the area they planted is very large, and this loss is not bad, which determines the national conditions of our country. We can't adopt this big farm model, because the population is too large, and everyone can get very little land, so we can only intensively cultivate to increase production, but there are few Americans and the land area is very large.

Therefore, from the natural environment, scientific and technological development and national conditions, it is unlikely that there will be large-scale farms in China, especially in some hilly areas in the north, and small-scale mechanized equipment may be used in paddy fields in the south, but it is still very difficult to realize large-scale joint harvest in the Central Plains of the United States, because the terrain in China is too complicated to be suitable for such large-scale farm operations.
