    TEHRAN, June 8 (Xinhua) — Iran on Saturday strongly condemned the new entry ban to the United States for citizens of several countries, including Iran, calling the move “a clear sign of deep-rooted hostility towards Iranians.”

    Iran’s Foreign Ministry condemned the US administration’s decision in a statement, saying the restrictions were aimed solely at people based on their nationality and religion, state news agency IRNA reported.

    Such policies reflect discriminatory thinking and violate fundamental principles of international law, including the principles of non-discrimination and respect for human rights, the Foreign Ministry added.

    The statement calls on the UN and international human rights bodies to publicly speak out against Washington’s “unilateral and discriminatory measures.”

    Iran will use all available means to protect the rights of its citizens and respond to the consequences of such actions by the US administration, the statement said. -0-

    NEW YORK, June 8 (Xinhua) — The U.S. State Department on Friday evening instructed consulates around the world to resume processing visa applications for international students applying to Harvard University, reversing guidance issued a day earlier to reject such requests, The Washington Post reported.

    The article, citing a cable sent by the State Department, said the new directive reversed a previous one issued on Thursday, less than an hour before a judge blocked Donald Trump’s administration from restricting foreign students from entering the country to study at Harvard.

    “Consular sections should resume processing visas for foreign students coming to the United States to study at Harvard University, including on exchange programs,” the Washington Post reports.

    The telegram comes after the Trump administration’s second attempt to block visas for foreign students planning to study at Harvard. –0–

    MINSK, June 8 (Xinhua) — A friendly match between the youth teams of China and Belarus in Minsk on Saturday marked the official opening of the National Football Stadium built with the support of China. The opening ceremony was attended by Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko.

    As A. Lukashenko noted in his speech, the National Football Stadium will become a symbol of strong Belarusian-Chinese friendship. “We are officially opening the greatest “monument”. We are opening this grandiose structure. For Belarus, this is the greatest event. The magnificent arena, as well as the new international-level swimming pool, were designed and built by our friends from the People’s Republic of China,” the Belarusian president noted.

    The head of the Belarusian state expressed gratitude to the Chairman of the People’s Republic of China Xi Jinping, as well as all Chinese partners for the construction of the National Football Stadium, which is the largest and most modern football stadium in Belarus and was built with the support of China. “I hope that in the near future, along with friendly games, national championship matches, we will be able to host official international meetings here and enjoy the performance of the best football players in the world,” A. Lukashenko noted.

    Deputy Director General of the General Administration of Physical Culture and Sports of the People’s Republic of China, Vice President of the Chinese Olympic Committee Zhang Jiasheng said that the completion of the stadium construction was not only a significant project of technical and economic Chinese-Belarusian cooperation, but also a clear indication of political trust, practical cooperation and rapprochement between the peoples of the two countries. He expressed hope that the stadium would become a platform for the dreams of the youth of China and Belarus to come true, as well as a bridge for deepening humanitarian cooperation between the two countries.

    The National Football Stadium of Belarus is a key project under the Belt and Road Initiative. It is located in the industrial district of Minsk and covers an area of 12.43 hectares, with a total construction area of 48,000 square meters. The stadium is designed for 33,145 spectators and meets international standards for a professional football field, and is also a multifunctional sports and cultural complex.

    The stadium’s design is dominated by white and red colors, symbolizing the cultural characteristics of Belarus and friendship with China. The facade consists of 472 curved steel slats, creating the effect of dynamic lines when the viewing angle changes. The roof is decorated with 1,860 different types of patterned glass, reflecting elements of the Belarusian flag.

    The central field lawn is equipped with an intelligent turf system, combining natural grass and artificial fibers, which ensures its green appearance all year round. Automatic drainage, soil heating, ventilation and irrigation systems create optimal conditions for players.

    In an interview with Xinhua, Belarusian Sports and Tourism Minister Sergei Kovalchuk expressed deep gratitude to the Chinese people for building a stadium of the highest standards, which will allow Belarus to host international competitions. He noted that Belarusian athletes, coaches and experts highly appreciate the quality of sports facilities built with China’s support.

    The general contractor for the project was Beijing Urban Construction Group. Sha Yi, head of the technical team for the project, said that the company had mobilized key resources, overcome difficulties, and ensured progress in implementing the project, contributing to the development of sports infrastructure in Belarus. “This stadium has also become an important platform for strengthening sports and cultural exchanges between the two countries,” Sha Yi noted.

    In a friendly match, the youth teams of Belarus /U-21/ and China /U-22/ played to a 1:1 draw. Chinese Ambassador to Belarus Zhang Wenchuan and S. Kovalichuk presented awards to athletes from both countries. Young footballer from Belarus Arseny Skopets noted that the new stadium impressed him with its beauty and comfort. He expressed joy from the game with the Chinese team and hope for further development of sports and friendly cooperation. –0–

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Automotive cooperation among RCEP members promotes green development

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    HEFEI, June 8 (Xinhua) — China and other member states of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) discussed low-carbon development issues, from new energy vehicles (NEVs) to common ideas for a green future, at a recent dialogue in Hefei, capital of east China’s Anhui Province.

    The dialogue focused on NEVs and advanced photovoltaic production and supply chains, and demonstrated the growing commitment of RCEP member countries to promote sustainable development.

    The dialogue was held as part of the RCEP 2025 Huangshan Regional Government and Sister City Cooperation Forum, which was held from June 4 to 6 and brought together about 300 participants from 15 countries that have joined the RCEP. A total of 27 agreements were signed, covering areas such as trade, technology and sister city relations.

    During the event, a number of joint projects were presented and signed, reflecting a shared commitment to sustainable development and deepening regional cooperation.

    As protectionism and unilateralism continue to challenge global supply chains, the NIE automotive industry faces growing uncertainty.

    Against this backdrop, as the world’s largest free trade agreement in terms of population and trade volume, RCEP is becoming a stabilizing force that brings greater certainty to the global economy. This view was echoed by many forum participants.

    Automotive cooperation in the NIE among RCEP member states is gaining momentum. In May, PT SGMW Motor Indonesia (Wuling) celebrated the production of its three millionth electric vehicle worldwide. Geely has started trial production of its EX5 model at its plant in Indonesia, with mass production set to begin in the third quarter of 2025.

    Meanwhile, Chinese electric vehicle maker BYD has begun construction of a passenger car plant in Cambodia’s Sihanoukville Special Economic Zone. The plant, which has a planned capacity of 10,000 units per year, is expected to begin operations by the end of this year.

    Forum participants noted a clear shift in NIE automobile cooperation among RCEP member countries from early-stage automobile exports to deeper localization. This shift was marked by the establishment of regional manufacturing hubs and the development of full supply chains, including battery materials and key components.

    For example, the SAIC-GM-Wuling Automobile plant in Indonesia has implemented an integrated system covering both vehicle production and parts supply to support the modernization of the country’s automobile industry.

    Major Chinese battery makers such as China Aviation Lithium Battery (CALB), Gotion High-Tech, and SVOLT Energy Technology have also expanded their operations in RCEP countries, building factories in Thailand, Vietnam, and elsewhere. Some have already begun local production, accelerating the regional growth of the EV ecosystem.

    “ASEAN is a dynamic region with growing demand for mobility solutions, increasing environmental awareness and a young population that embraces change,” said Electric Vehicle Association of the Philippines President Edmund Araga.

    In recent years, RCEP members have set targets to reduce carbon emissions. Cambodia aims to achieve net zero emissions by 2050 and increase the share of renewable energy to 70 percent by 2030. Thailand plans to increase the share of electric vehicles in its car production to 30 percent by 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality by 2050.

    “RCEP has created a long-term cooperation mechanism for us,” said Malaysian Electric Vehicle Association President Dennis Chua, adding that battery development and waste recycling are expected to be key areas of long-term cooperation between Malaysia, China and other RCEP members.

    In the first four months of 2025, China’s NIS auto output rose 48.3 percent year-on-year to nearly 4.43 million units, while sales jumped 46.2 percent to 4.3 million, data from the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers showed. NIS vehicles accounted for 42.7 percent of the country’s total auto sales during the period.

    “China has become a global leader in NEVs, not just in terms of manufacturing but also in research and development, battery innovation, infrastructure and scale,” said Edmund Araga. “Together, we can shape the future of mobility in Asia and around the world.” -0-

  • MIL-OSI Russia: In 2025, China’s Gaokao Combines High-Tech Vigilance with Concern for People

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    Source: People’s Republic of China – State Council News

    BEIJING, June 8 (Xinhua) — As China’s annual national college entrance examination, also known as the “gaokao,” kicked off on Saturday morning, a volunteer in Shenyang helped wheelchair-bound examinee Wang Zhenyu safely into the exam room by coordinating with police to open a “green corridor” – a small gesture that reflects nationwide efforts to support examinees.

    While students are trying their best, authorities are working hard to ensure the exam is safe and fair for the 13.35 million examinees across the country. In many places, artificial intelligence (AI) technology is being deployed for this purpose.

    In Benxi City, northeast China’s Liaoning Province, every gaokao exam hall is monitored by a real-time intelligent surveillance system that automatically detects behavioral irregularities – from whispering and frequent glances between students to inattentiveness of proctors – to strengthen discipline and fairness during exams.

    AI-powered monitoring systems have also been implemented in other provinces, including Jiangxi, Hubei and Guangdong, enabling real-time monitoring, behavioral analysis and early warning. By accurately identifying behavioral violations without human intervention, the advanced technology eases the burden on examination staff and enhances the fairness and integrity of the examination itself.

    These advanced measures play an important role in supporting this year’s gaokao. Authorities and communities across the country have implemented a wide range of initiatives to ensure the safe and fair administration of the exam, addressing concerns related to technological risks and environmental conditions, as well as the physical and mental well-being of students.

    TECHNOLOGIES THAT ENSURE FAIRNESS

    On May 28, China’s Ministry of Education announced that it would strengthen security measures for this year’s exams, with a particular focus on technological safeguards. The upgrades include stricter entry controls, increased screening of devices such as phones and smartwatches, radio signal blocking at all exam sites, and greater use of intelligent surveillance and screening systems to strengthen the exam’s security network.

    Upgraded security gates at entrances have become a key component in ensuring fair examination conditions in Liaoning Province. At each examination site, students must pass through two intelligent security gates that can detect small metal objects, including mobile phones, smart watches, smart glasses, hidden earphones and other high-tech cheating devices. If the alarms are triggered, teachers conduct a check with hand-held metal detectors.

    “Cheating technology is evolving every year, so this year the screening procedure at school entrance is stricter than ever,” said Liu Yang, principal of Benxi City High School. “At the school gate, students are reminded not to bring in prohibited devices, and lockers are provided for safe storage. On exam days, dedicated staff also inspect key areas such as walls, toilets and trash cans to prevent any form of information transfer from outside.”

    Biometric verification has also become a standard part of exam security. At the entrance, examinees undergo facial recognition, fingerprint or iris scanning to prevent people from impersonating exam candidates. Identity checks are carried out several times before, during and after exams, and each time takes only a few seconds.

    In parallel, national radio services actively monitor exam centres and surrounding areas for suspicious signals. By identifying and blocking unauthorised wireless communications, they help prevent fraud using electronic devices.

    SOCIAL SUPPORT

    In addition to technical precautions, many regions have taken additional steps to create a calm and favourable environment for exams. These include postponing performances, temporarily closing libraries, cultural centres, museums and sports facilities, and changing the working hours of government agencies and businesses.

    In east China’s Anhui Province, the Anhui Huangmei Opera House suspended all performances from June 5 to 9 to minimize noise near exam venues. Similarly, cultural institutions in Jiangsu, Fujian and Henan provinces have postponed street performances, traditional lion dances and puppet shows to ensure a quiet atmosphere for students.

    To ease traffic congestion and ensure timely arrival at exam sites, many cities have taken special measures such as postponing office opening times and encouraging carpooling or public transportation. Traffic police have designated priority lanes and are ready to escort examinees caught in traffic jams, ensuring that everyone gets to the exam site on time. In Benxi City, students can even order taxis with “gaokao free ride” stickers by phone or hail them on the street and show their pass to take the exam.

    To protect students from adverse weather conditions, Beijing 101 Middle School set up rain and sun shelters, provided them with more than 200 umbrellas, and provided first aid by medical personnel on site. In the exam rooms, silent fans and purified drinking water created a comfortable environment.

    Beijing has also introduced customized support measures for students with special needs, including providing exam papers in Braille and large print, as well as separate testing rooms, so that every examinee can take the exam with dignity and confidence.

    The Anhui Communist Youth League has launched a nationwide campaign to support students’ mental health, sending counselors to schools to give talks on stress relief and offering online counseling to reduce test anxiety.

    This nationwide effort reflects not only the scale of the gaokao’s facilities, but also the deep social significance attached to it. Behind every quiet exam room or smooth ride to the testing center is a collective commitment to ensuring fairness, opportunity, and hope for the future.

    Since its re-establishment in 1977, the gaokao has become one of the most powerful tools for promoting educational equality and social mobility in China. Based on merit-based selection principles, the exam allows students from all backgrounds to participate in a fair “competition.” This standardized system provides transparency and accountability in university admissions for a population of more than 1.4 billion people.

    For many, the gaokao is a turning point in life, the only chance to change their future through determination and hard work. It has become a symbol of fairness, opportunity, and the belief that personal effort can change a person’s destiny. -0-

    MINSK, June 8 (Xinhua) — China’s U-22 men’s youth team played a 1-1 draw with Belarus’ U-21 team in a friendly match on Saturday. The game was held at the new National Football Stadium of Belarus, built with China’s support. The football arena, which can accommodate 33,000 spectators, was almost full, with fans actively supporting both teams.

    At the beginning of the match, the Belarusian team, using the home advantage, actively attacked. Already in the first 10 minutes, they earned several corners, but were unable to convert them into goals. In the 13th minute, the Chinese team carried out a counterattack: midfielder Mutellip Iminkari went one-on-one with the goalkeeper, but the ball hit the post.

    The Belarusians relied on aerial play, using their height, and the Chinese responded with quick attacks, creating several dangerous moments. However, the first half ended goalless.

    In the second half, already in the 1st minute, a Chinese defender committed a foul in his penalty area, and the referee awarded a penalty. Player number 22 from the Belarusian team, Nikita Baranov, confidently converted the kick, opening the score – 1:0.

    The Chinese did not give up and continued to attack. In the 65th minute, the coaching staff made substitutions, and in the 74th minute, M. Iminkari effectively finished off a corner kick, leveling the score – 1:1.

    The Belarusians actively pressed until the end of the match, but the Chinese defense held out, and the game ended in a draw.

    China U-22 goalkeeper Li Hao noted after the match that “even though it was a friendly match, the atmosphere at the new stadium felt like a serious tournament. The Belarusians created a lot of problems for us, but we showed a decent level.”

    Arseny Skopets, goalkeeper for the Belarus U-21 team, said he was generally pleased with his performance. “China is a strong opponent. I hope we will have more matches like this,” he said.

    According to the China Football Association, the U-22 team is holding a training camp in Dalian, Liaoning Province, from May 23 to June 10 to prepare for the 2026 U-23 AFC Asian Cup and the 2026 Nagoya Asian Games. As part of the preparation, the team traveled to Belarus to play friendly matches. –0–

    TEHRAN, June 7 (Xinhua) — Iran says its intelligence services have obtained a trove of documents related to Israel’s nuclear program, Iran’s state broadcaster IRIB reported Saturday. Israeli officials have yet to comment on the report.

    The documents, described by Iranian media as “sensitive and strategic,” were said to have been smuggled out of Israel. IRIB, citing unnamed regional sources, called the alleged acquisition of the information one of the most significant intelligence leaks in Israel’s history.

    The materials allegedly include thousands of files detailing Israeli nuclear facilities and plans. The transfer of the documents required a media blackout to ensure their safe arrival in Iran, IRIB reported. The state broadcaster noted that the volume of data was so large that it took weeks to review and catalogue it.

    The report from Iran follows a statement by the General Security Service and the Israel Police on May 20, when the agencies said they had arrested two Israeli citizens in April near the city of Haifa on suspicion of gathering intelligence for Iran. –0–

    HONG KONG, June 7 (Xinhua) — A spokesperson for the Office of the Special Representative of the Chinese Foreign Ministry in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) on Saturday expressed strong dissatisfaction and resolute protest over the gross interference of some foreign politicians in the affairs of the HKSAR and China’s internal affairs.

    As the department clarified, this was a response to recent unfounded statements by foreign politicians regarding the Law of the People’s Republic of China on Safeguarding National Security in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and their blatant interference in matters affecting national security.

    The official representative noted that under the protection of the national security law, public order is effectively maintained in the SAR, justice is upheld, the rule of law is protected, and the legal rights of residents and the investment and business environment of the metropolis are even better ensured.

    According to him, Hong Kong is a society governed by the rule of law, where no one enjoys extra-legal privileges and any offense committed is punished according to the law. The SAR judiciary exercises its authorized functions independently and in accordance with the law, guaranteeing fair and impartial procedures that are beyond criticism.

    The spokesman stressed that some foreign politicians ignore the fact that their own countries have numerous national security laws, are oblivious to their own dismal record of human rights and rule of law atrocities, and violate the fundamental principle of international relations of non-interference in domestic affairs.

    The brazen attempts by these politicians to undermine the rule of law in the Hong Kong SAR expose their hypocrisy and double standards, the diplomat said, calling on them to acknowledge the facts, change their behavior and immediately stop interfering in Hong Kong affairs and China’s internal affairs in any form. –0–

    Moscow, June 7 /Xinhua/ — In recent years, exchanges between the Volgograd Region of the Russian Federation and China in various areas have become increasingly close, the region is ready to further deepen bilateral mutually beneficial cooperation. This was stated recently by Deputy Governor Anna Pisemskaya at a meeting with foreign journalists.

    “The Volgograd Region and China have long-standing, strong friendly ties. Cooperation is stable and dynamically developing,” said A. Pisemskaya, answering a question from a correspondent of the Xinhua news agency.

    She noted that in recent years, trade and economic cooperation between the Volgograd Region and China has become increasingly close, and trade turnover continues to grow.

    “According to the Federal Customs Service of Russia, in 2024, the volume of trade turnover between the Volgograd Region and China increased by almost 67 percent compared to 2023. In the total volume of foreign trade turnover of the region, the turnover with China accounted for 14.8 percent, taking 1st place out of 104 partner countries in foreign economic activity,” said A. Pisemskaya.

    “These figures speak for themselves; our business is more active than business with other countries,” said the deputy governor.

    According to her, Chinese investments in the economy of the Volgograd region are not just financial injections, but confident steps towards sustainable development.

    “Thanks to advanced technologies and experience of Chinese companies, the region receives a powerful impetus for modernization of industry, agriculture and infrastructure. In turn, the Volgograd Region offers China reliable supplies of high-quality agricultural products, advantageous logistics routes and access to the capacious market of the South of Russia,” said A. Pisemskaya.

    She added that every aspect of the partnership between the Volgograd Region and China is built on the principles of mutual respect, common goals and impressive synergy that benefits both parties.

    A. Pisemskaya also emphasized that the development of relations between the Volgograd region and China is not limited to foreign trade relations; humanitarian exchanges are also supported.

    “Chinese tourists are interested in visiting Volgograd, a hero city with a rich history, and Volgograd residents are increasingly studying the Chinese language and culture, discovering new perspectives for themselves,” she said.

    According to official data, today the Russian hero city of Volgograd has three sister cities in China: the city of Jilin in the province of Jilin /Northeastern China/, the city of Qujing in the province of Yunnan /Southwestern China/ and the city of Chengdu in the province of Sichuan /Southwestern China/. And between the Volgograd region and the Chinese province of Jilin, sister city relations have also been established.

    In addition, since 2010, when Volgograd State Social and Pedagogical University (VSPU) and Tianjin University of Foreign Languages (TUFLU) jointly created the Confucius Institute at VSPU, Chinese language education in the region has been developing rapidly.

    “The Confucius Institute at the Volgograd State Pedagogical University is one of the key centers of Chinese culture and education in the south of Russia,” said A. Pisemskaya, adding that today 394 Chinese students are studying at universities in the Volgograd Region; they not only study, but also actively participate in the social and cultural life of Volgograd and the region.

    At the end of May this year, the All-Russian qualifying round of the 24th World Chinese Language Competition among students, secondary school and primary school pupils “Chinese is a Bridge” was held in Volgograd.

    In addition, in mid-May of this year, the Volgograd State Conservatory named after P. A. Serebryakov and TUIYA signed an agreement of intent to cooperate. The document marked the beginning of deepened ties between the parties in the field of music education.

    “Cultural and humanitarian ties between our regions are only getting stronger, creating a solid foundation for further interaction,” the deputy governor noted.

    According to her, the Volgograd region is ready to deepen cooperation with Chinese partners for joint development.

    “The plans for the future are even more impressive: joint innovative projects, development of “green” energy, expansion of transport corridors and deepening of scientific and educational cooperation. All this makes the partnership between us a stronghold of fruitful interaction, where each side only wins,” A. Pisemskaya summed up. –0–

    On June 5, 2025, the Moscow Academic Economic Forum (MAEF-2025) ended, part of the working program of which was held at the State University of Management.

    This year, the Moscow Academic Economic Forum was dedicated to the 260th anniversary of the founding of the Free Economic Society of Russia and was devoted to the topic “Russia – 2025: the trajectory of dynamic balanced socio-economic development”. MAEF brought together more than 17.5 thousand specialists from 32 countries, including China, India, Canada, Cuba, Germany, Greece, South Africa, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan and Georgia.

    At the ceremonial final plenary session of the MAEF, Vladimir Stroyev, Rector of the State University of Management, spoke: “We are grateful to the Free Economic Society of Russia for the trust to hold part of the forum’s working program at our university. The conference was devoted to discussing issues related to the socio-economic development of Russia. All events of the Free Economic Society are of great interest to the teaching, scientific and student community at our university, so we are glad to be part of this forum today. I hope that we will continue our cooperation and do a lot of useful things for the benefit of Russia and its economy.”

    According to the President of the Free Economic Society of Russia Sergey Bodrunov, the strong regional component has become the hallmark of the MAEF. This year, in anticipation of the central events of the forum, work was carried out at 115 regional sites, which were formed on the basis of the leading universities and research centers of the country, divisions and institutions of the Russian Academy of Sciences, and regional organizations of the VEO of Russia.

    The plenary session of the MAEF was held on June 4 at the Russian Academy of Sciences, and plenary conferences on June 5 were hosted by 13 sites of leading universities and research centers. The plenary conference on the topic of “Institutes for Balanced Socioeconomic Development of Russia” was held at the State University of Management.

    The conference participants discussed a wide range of issues aimed at achieving balanced socio-economic development: the formation of new development institutions, strategic planning, human capital, interdepartmental cooperation, digital technologies and scientific and educational clusters.

    The following key recommendations were developed as a result of the conference:

    Coordination of development institutions. It was proposed to work out the issue of creating a single coordination mechanism for coordinating the actions of development institutions, aimed at implementing technological and industrial sovereignty in the context of structural transformation of the economy. Solving the problem of personnel shortage. The conference participants noted the paramount importance of the problem of systemic personnel shortage as the main limitation for achieving the goals of economic policy. It was proposed to strengthen interdepartmental and interlevel formats of labor force planning over a 5-15 year horizon, including advanced training of specialists for priority projects. Moreover, the State University of Management is one of the ambassadors of project-based learning. Transition to systemic measures of economic policy. Recognize the need to transition from targeted to systemic measures of economic policy aimed at long-term sustainability and increasing domestic demand for scientific, engineering and production competencies. Formation of a national model of integrated strategic planning. Conference participants expressed support for the idea of creating a national model of integrated strategic planning, which will include monitoring of resource, institutional and demographic constraints, as well as mechanisms for compensating for them through appropriate institutional and financial instruments.

    Also, within the framework of MAEF, a youth conference was held, following which GUU student Ekaterina Glyzina (IOM, 2nd year) received a 1st degree diploma in the section “New solutions for the digital age: from theory to practice”.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: AI vs. Manual Cultivation: Round 2 of China’s Smart Farming Competition

    Translation. Region: Russian Federal

    CHENGDU, June 7 (Xinhua) — Under the golden rays of the June sun, a “high-risk” agricultural experiment is unfolding in the emerald rice fields of the “Tianfu Breadbasket” key demonstration area in Chongzhou City, southwest China’s Sichuan Province.

    Three weeks into the second AI rice-growing competition, organizers are faced with a key question: Can AI surpass centuries of farming wisdom?

    The competition, which runs from May 15 to September 30, features six traditional farming teams and four AI-enabled teams on 1,000 mu (about 66.7 hectares) of high-quality rural fields. Each team cultivates 100 mu using elite rice varieties. This modern duel between tradition and technology offers insight into China’s advancement toward smart agriculture.

    The AI teams use an intelligent agent for rice cultivation decision-making developed by the Institute of Urban Agriculture of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences (CAAS) using a sky-earth-space data network. The system collects information on crop growth, farming operations, diseases, pests and weeds in real time, processes the data through a cloud-based AI agent, generates detailed reports and professional recommendations that are instantly sent to the smartphones of the AI participants.

    Based on these recommendations, AI participants carry out field work, and the monitoring system continuously collects operational data, forming a closed decision-making loop to ensure the accuracy and intelligence of the growing process.

    Gao Ying, a participant from Qingqiao Shared Land Cooperative in Chongzhou City, said that compared with traditional farming, AI farming can quickly master key knowledge and production skills. “In addition, the system provides effective recommendations in response to queries,” she added.

    Lessons from the first competition

    This is not Gao Ying’s first experience. Last year’s competition showed the reality of the situation: the AI system from ASNC, which guided the newcomer Gao Ying in the 100 mu section, helped her team to take seventh place among nine teams.

    “AI needs field practice,” said Wang Ran, a leading researcher at ASNC for urban agriculture strategy, whose team developed the system.

    “When we created the algorithm, we had fragmentary data. Now we have created a comprehensive data set covering the entire rice growing process: start and end dates, photos of crop growth, relevant weather and soil data,” said Wang Ran.

    “The power of AI is in processing 10,000 data points from each mu through our monitoring network, but converting them into practical actions requires deeper synergy between farmers and algorithms,” Wang explained. He noted that the AI-based decision-making rate reached 73 percent last year, but there were challenges with the timing of pest control.

    “This year, the goal is to achieve more than 80 percent decision making to ensure that AI recommendations are consistent with farmers’ actions,” he said.

    Harmony between humans and AI

    The organizers view the competition not as a confrontation, but as an integration of humans and AI.

    “AI is a help, not a replacement for humans. We aim to provide more accurate support to urban producers and decision makers through AI computing power,” Wang Ran said of the initial goal of applying AI in agriculture.

    “The key value of the system is to create a bridge between innovators and farmers’ needs, improving the quality of decision-making by farmers and providing data for government sector planning,” he stressed.

    Now, in the midst of summer harvesting and planting, Qingqiao Village in Chongzhou City, Chengdu Plain, is demonstrating the results of technological transformation of traditional agriculture: an intelligent rice planting system works in tandem with farmers, creating a highly efficient symbiosis of smart technology and human labor. -0-
