Fangchenggang City is located in the subtropical The monsoon climate has more sunshine days per year and fertile land, which is suitable for sugarcane production, and sugarcane has high sugar content. In particular, Shangsi County is full of low hills, and sugarcane can be planted continuously. As early as the Ming and Qing Dynasties, urban residents had learned to squeeze sugar cane juice and boil brown sugar for consumption or sale.

In the late Republic of China, the sugar cane grown in Shangsi and Fangcheng counties was mainly used by family workshops to make brown sugar, yellow sugar and brown sugar. Most of them were sold locally, and a small amount was sold to other places.

From the founding of the People's Republic of China to the 1960s, due to the country's emphasis on developing grain production, sugarcane planting and cane sugar production developed slowly. During this period, the sugar industry continued to use local production methods, that is, using firewood to boil the cane juice in a large pot into local sugar, with a sugar yield of only 17%. Preparations for the construction of Shangsi County Sugar Factory began in 1970. When completed and put into operation that year, the output of powdered sugar was 168 tons. In the 1970s, due to the substantial increase in the demand for cane sugar in the city and the government's support for sugar cane cultivation, preferential policies were implemented for production teams that sold raw material cane, including the sale of grain, chemical fertilizers, and the sale of sugar and wine back, and the task of planting sugar cane was implemented in the brigades. , production teams, municipal communes, and brigades built small sugar factories, but most of them used diesel engines as power to press sugarcane and boil sugar using local methods. From 1976 to 1978, the Shangsi County Sugar Factory expanded for the first time; in the spring of 1978, the Fangcheng Sugar Factory in Dongxing Autonomous County was completed and put into operation; in 1979, the Shangsi County Changdun Farm Sugar Factory was completed and put into operation. Later, because sugar cane production was mainly to meet the needs of county sugar mills, commune and brigade sugar mills were all shut down in the early 1980s due to low efficiency and chaotic management.

In 1981, there were only three cane sugar production enterprises in the city: Shangsi County Sugar Factory, Changdun Farm Sugar Factory, and Fangcheng Sugar Factory of Fangcheng Autonomous County (formerly Dongxing Autonomous County). At this time, the autonomous region government supports and encourages the cane sugar industry and regards sugar cane planting and cane sugar production as pillar industries for poverty alleviation and prosperity. Shangsi County closely followed the policy and designated sugar cane planting and cane sugar production as key industries, promoted sugar cane planting, developed the cane sugar industry, and implemented the policy of reducing grain purchases and increasing sales of machine sugar bases and exchanging grain for cane. Since then, Shangsi sugar industry has developed rapidly. develop. During the same period, the various ethnic autonomous counties in Fangcheng experienced poor corporate performance due to industrial development layout, insufficient supply of raw material sugar cane, and management of sugar production enterprises. It was not until 1985 that Fangcheng Autonomous County expanded the sugar cane planting area, and the raw material cane gradually met the needs of the county sugar mills. In 1986, the Fangcheng Sugar Factory in Fangcheng Autonomous County was expanded; in 1988, the Shangsi County Sugar Factory was expanded for the second time.

In 1988, Shangsi County was listed as one of the 18 cane sugar production base counties in the autonomous region. Sugar cane production became a pillar industry. After the 1990s, sugar industry tax revenue accounted for more than half of the county's fiscal revenue. At the same time, Shangsi County vigorously introduces excellent varieties to develop the cane sugar industry, continuously expands the sugar cane production area, and the output of raw material cane increases year by year, and the sugar industry production continues to develop rapidly. In the same year, the city produced 18,100 tons of cane sugar, with a total industrial output value of 22.1355 million yuan. Among them, Shangsi County produced 12,768 tons of sucrose, with an industrial output value of 16.4855 million yuan, and Fangcheng Autonomous County Sugar Factory produced 5,359 tons of sucrose and 427 tons of alcohol, with a total industrial output value of 5.65 million yuan.

After the city was founded in 1993, the sugar industry became one of the pillar industries of Fangchenggang City. There are three cane sugar production enterprises in the city: Shangsi County Sugar Factory, Changdun Farm Sugar Factory, and Fangcheng Sugar Factory, all of which are state-owned medium-sized enterprises. In 1994, Changdun Farm Sugar Factory merged with Guangxi state-owned Changdun Farm to form Guangxi Changling Industrial Development Company, becoming a subordinate sugarcane chemical company. In 2002, Changling Sugarcane Chemical Company was restructured and separated from the head office and registered as Guangxi Nongken Sugar (Group) Changling Sugar Co., Ltd.; in 2001, Shangsi County Sugar Factory and Oriental, a subsidiary of Shanghai's large state-owned enterprise Bright Food Group In cooperation with the Pioneer Food and Wine Co., Ltd., Shanghai Oriental Pioneer Food and Wine Co., Ltd. and Shangsi Sugar Co., Ltd., the labor union of Shangsi Sugar Co., Ltd. (representing the employee shareholding of Shangsi Sugar Co., Ltd.), Shangsi County Finance Bureau "Guangxi Shangshang Sugar Co., Ltd." is jointly controlled by the major shareholders; Fangcheng Sugar Factory went bankrupt in the late 1990s. In 2002, the Fangcheng Branch of Guangxi Nongken Sugar Group Co., Ltd. was established. At the same time, it invested 22.8 million yuan to acquire the original bankrupt company. Fangcheng Sugar Factory was renamed Guangxi Sugar Industry Group Fangcheng Refined Sugar Co., Ltd. in 2010. In 2020, the city produced 247,300 tons of mixed sugar and 6,800 tons of refined sugar, directly increasing the income of sugarcane farmers by 986 million yuan. The annual output value was 2.84 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 11.25%.

Over the years, with the great attention of the Fangchenggang Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, Fangchenggang City’s sugar enterprises have continuously transformed their existing production processes, promoted the transformation of the sugar industry from primary processing to intensive processing, and further improved the sugar industry. The comprehensive benefits of the enterprise promote the development of circular economy in the sugar industry and lay the foundation for the realization of sustainable and healthy development strategy. At the same time, Fangchengang City also actively applied for special financial support for the development of the autonomous region's sugar industry.

In 2017, Fangchengang City received 5.6 million yuan in special support funds for the development of the autonomous region's sugar industry to support the construction of three sugar-making enterprises, laying a solid foundation for accelerating transformation and upgrading. Today, sugar companies in Fangchenggang City have initially formed a cane sugar industry cluster with local characteristics, which has effectively promoted the industrial upgrading of the sugar industry. Dear sugarcane farmer Wu Tingyang, hello, your cutting permit is 88×××, you can start cutting sugarcane. ”

When he saw this text message, Wu Tingyang from Nanping Township, Shangsi County, who was still working in the fields, was still dubious and did not dare to cut the cane hastily. Because he knew that once cut, it would not be transported in time. At the sugar factory, the price of sugarcane will drop due to the decrease in freshness. He has been growing sugarcane for most of his life. He has always spent several days in advance to get the cutting and transportation certificate from the township government, and it also cost hundreds of yuan. Travel expenses, accommodation fees, etc. He didn't believe that a text message could be used to cut cane. However, two or three days later, he found that everyone in the village was cutting cane. After asking, he found out that they were receiving text messages. After that, he immediately organized people to cut cane. At this time, he believed that the information provided by the text message was true.

This is the "Sweet Tong" text message platform jointly developed by China Mobile Guangxi Company and Changling Sugar Factory. Benefits brought to sugarcane farmers. The use of this system enables the company's internal production office to communicate with sugarcane farmers and transporters via SMS through the direct connection between the sugar factory's internal management system and the mobile SMS platform, so that relevant information from the sugar factory can be delivered to the sugarcane in a timely manner. In the hands of sugarcane farmers: sending cane cutting plans, truck dispatching orders, temporary dispatching orders, etc.; automatic SMS notifications of sugarcane weighing; automatic SMS notifications of sugarcane settlement at home. These save sugarcane farmers a lot of trouble and save manpower and material resources.

The sugarcane area has become the "first production workshop" of the sugar factory

As soon as September came, a text message appeared on the mobile phone of the sugarcane farmers: "Hello, sugarcane farmers, now is the start of sugarcane production." Entering the period of stem elongation and sugar accumulation, the soil is currently relatively moist, which is the best time to fertilize and strengthen the tail..." Then, sugarcane farmers in each sugarcane area will receive information on their mobile phones at regular intervals about how to prevent and control pests and diseases, pay attention to weeding, and pay attention to weeding. Spraying and other text messages.

Zhang Lanfang, a sugarcane farmer in Banai Village, Nanping Township, told reporters that since September, she has often received text messages reminding her of when to apply fertilizer and what matters to pay attention to. Almost everyone in the village manages the sugarcane area according to the prompts of the mobile phone text messages until the sugar cane is harvested and the money is received.

The text message service has changed the relationship between the sugar factory and the sugarcane farmers from the traditional dependence relationship. Colin Shaohan, director of sugar factory business, said that in the past, sugar factories only paid attention to the purchase of sugar cane, and rarely took care of the production of sugar cane farmers. Sugarcane farmers don't know which type of sugarcane has the highest yield, when to cut sugarcane to achieve maximum benefits, etc. This actually results in information asymmetry between the two parties, resulting in sugar mills not having enough and fresh food, and sugarcane farmers having difficulty selling sugarcane or not being able to sell it well. Price.

Since the SMS platform was established, the production progress of sugarcane farmers is basically under the control of the sugar factory. The sugar factory can always know the situation in which sugarcane area.

"Eating fresh sugarcane"

In the past, sugarcane farmers complained that the income from sugarcane of the same quantity and quality was different. The sugar factory explained that the freshness was different.

Lin Shaohan told reporters. In the past, when the sugar factory sent a truck to load sugar cane, it often happened that the driver could not find the sugar cane to be loaded after wandering around the sugar cane area for a long time, while the sugar cane farmer was in a hurry at home. As a result, the sugar factory blamed the sugar cane farmer for not providing an accurate address. As a result, transportation costs have increased; sugarcane farmers have also complained about the poor service quality of sugarcane factories because the freshness of sugarcane has dropped due to delayed arrival at the factory, resulting in lower prices. In order to transport the cut sugarcane to the sugar factory as soon as possible and sell it at a good price, some sugarcane farmers even go to live near the sugar factory for a few days and do not go back until they get a car. The travel and accommodation fees spent for this are already a large amount. , causing some sugarcane farmers to simply sell their sugarcane to other sugar mills.

Whether it is the sugar factory blaming the sugarcane farmers for not providing accurate addresses or being untrustworthy and selling to other places, or the sugarcane farmers complaining about the low quality of the sugar factory’s service, a strong message is conveyed: there is a serious lack of communication between the sugar factory and the sugarcane farmers. Effective information communication has harmed the interests of sugarcane farmers, and sugar mills often have insufficient food and no access to fresh sugarcane. According to estimates, if each ton of sugarcane is pressed one hour later, its sugar content will shift by 0.1 percentage points, and the sugar yield will also decrease accordingly.

After the Changling "Sweet Pass" 0123489 SMS platform was launched on March 3 this year, it successfully realized information symmetry between sugar mills and sugarcane farmers, and realized fast, effective and timely information communication.

The most obvious beneficiaries are sugarcane farmers.

Liang Yongchun from Xiongjie Village, Fu Township, Shangsi Ping, said that he has planted more than 30 acres of sugar cane, and it takes about 20 trucks to transport it. In the past, after cutting sugar cane, it would take ten minutes to go back and forth from home to the sugar factory from following the truck to the sugar factory for weighing and settlement. Several times, it costs more than 500 yuan a year just for travel expenses, food and accommodation, etc. Now there is no need. Changling Sugar Factory will send all the information to his mobile phone, so he can know all the information at home. Then he handed the phone to the reporter. The reporter saw two text messages on his mobile phone: "Liang Yongchun Sugar Cane Owner, the weighing weight of this truck's sugar cane is 9.062 tons..." The second text message was: "Liang Yongchun Sugar Cane Owner, hello, your sugar cane has been After checkout, you can check the amount of money earned directly in your account. ”

Since the sugar cane can be transported to the sugar factory in time after the sugar cane is cut, the sugar factory no longer has to eat old sugar cane. Shipped to the sugar factory as soon as possible. Lin Shaohan said that since the SMS service was launched, the sugar production rate has increased by nearly 10 percentage points on average, saving each sugarcane farmer an average of 300 yuan.

SMS business achieves win-win for all parties

SMS business system is a good platform with low investment, quick results and shaping corporate image. Its benefits are not only reflected in sugar mills, but also in sugarcane farmers and mobile companies, achieving a win-win situation for all. Lin Shaohan said.

To implement the "Sweet Pass" project, the company invests tens of thousands of yuan in equipment costs at one time, and then only pays for text messages every month. The benefits that this information technology brings to the company far exceed investment.

According to Long Qinghua, head of the office of Changling Sugar Factory, after the implementation of the SMS service, the increase in sugar production rate and the substantial reduction in sugarcane transportation costs are not only tangible but also intangible benefits for the enterprise. That is to say, the service quality and work efficiency of the enterprise have been significantly improved, thus shaping a new image of the enterprise. Sugarcane farmers in the sugarcane area have basically become the first workshop workers of the sugar factory. In addition to the headquarters, Changling Sugar Factory has five sugarcane districts in Miao, Pingfu, Nanping, Gongan and Hualan. Due to the improvement of the sugar factory's service quality, they consciously sell sugar cane to Changling Sugar Factory, and basically no sugar cane is sold. phenomenon elsewhere.

In addition, mobile services have been expanded in rural areas, and the penetration rate of mobile phones in rural areas has increased rapidly. Some sugarcane farmers who have never used mobile phones are now using them. According to statistics, since the implementation of SMS service, 1,256 new mobile phone households have been added in Changling Sugarcane District. "Sweet Pass" achieves win-win for all parties.

Editor: With the increasing demand for information applications in various industries in Guangxi, all parties have put forward newer and higher requirements for information services. Following the strategic thinking of the autonomous region party committee and government to build Guangxi into an information center, how to increase information construction, further deepen the development of information applications and continuously improve the capabilities and levels of information services has become a consideration for Guangxi enterprises and Guangxi communication operation companies direction. As a subsidiary of China Mobile, it is the leading telecommunications operator in Guangxi that focuses on mobile communication information services. Based on China Mobile's high-quality wireless network information platform, China Mobile Guangxi Company launched the "Sweet Pass" service for sugar mills, sugarcane farmers, and transportation companies. Shang Sanfang provides an information platform for SMS communication, which enables sugar mills and sugarcane farmers to switch from traditional face-to-face communication to modern information-based communication, solving a headache that has been plaguing the government, enterprises and farmers, that is, the opening of sugar mills. The contradiction between "not having enough to eat and not eating fresh sugarcane" during harvesting and "difficulty selling sugarcane" after the harvest is a problem for farmers means that farmers can save money and worry, and enterprises can save time, effort and efficiency, achieving a win-win situation. This project of China Mobile Guangxi Company to assist enterprise informatization has made its due contribution to eliminating the "digital divide" between urban and rural areas and effectively promoting the construction of a new socialist countryside. It reflects the determination and strength of being an excellent corporate citizen.
