December 5 is the 12th World Soil Day, and arable land has attracted much attention as a soil carrier with agricultural production functions. On the same day, the Institute of Agricultural Resources and Regional Planning of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences officially released China's first large-scale model serving the fields of monitoring and supervision of high-standard farmland construction, arable land protection, and quality improvement — the Farming Model 1.0. The model was completed under the leadership of Tang Huajun, an Academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering. The aim was to build a “smart brain” for arable land that can be understood, implemented, and evolved to provide intelligent tool support for the in-depth implementation of the “hide food in the land, hide food in technology” strategy.
