Research Progress of Rice-Fish Integrated Farming

Rice-fish integrated farming （RFIF） can change the agricultural production pattern from mono-farming model to the co-farming model, and the stereoscopic and integrated farming system established by RFIF can change the flat production to the stereoscopic production. Therefore, RFIF is the important development direction for agriculture to change pattern and adjust structure. In order to further promote development of the research and application of RFIF, the general development situation of RFIF in China was reviewed; the effects of RFIF on increasing farmer income and enhancing agricultural efficiency were clarified. The technologies matched with RFIF, such as rice paddy engineering technology, safe plant protection technology, security fertilization technology, fish disease prevention and control technology and water quality management technology, were summarized, and the supporting role of RFIF for agriculture was pointed out. In addition, the development prospect of RFIF was proposed, as well as the key research direction of RFIF.

Supporting Seeder and Planting Technology for Spring Corn in Arid Areas

The annual rainfall is low and the fresh water resources are scarce for the rainfed farming in dry zone of northern China,which seriously affects the sowing and growth of spring corn. In order to solve this problem,the technology of ridge-mulching and side-sowing of spring corn is put forward,the supporting compound operation seeder is developed,and the effect of different speed on the quality of sowing is tested and analyzed. Under the test conditions described in this paper,the seeding operation with a high speed( up to 6 km/h) can be realized,and the quality of the seeding operation can meet the requirements of the national standards. The application of this machine can solve the problem of " drought damage at the booting stage" for spring corn,thereby realizing the deep fusion of farming machine and agronomy in dry farming of northern China,and achieving the integration of farming machine and agronomy.

Transient stability risk assessment of power systems incorporating wind farms

Large-scale wind farm integration has brought several aspects of challenges to the transient stability of power systems.This paper focuses on the research of the transient stability of power systems incorporating with wind farms by utilizing risk assessment methods.The detailed model of double fed induction generator has been established.Wind penetration variation and multiple stochastic factors of power systems have been considered.The process of transient stability risk assessment based on the Monte Carlo method has been described and a comprehensive risk indicator has been proposed.An investigation has been conducted into an improved 10-generator 39-bus system with a wind farm incorporated to verify the validity and feasibility of the risk assessment method proposed.

Small signal stability analysis of power systems with high penetration of wind power

The integration of large amount of wind power into a power system imposes a new challenge for the secure and economic operation of the system.It is necessary to investigate the impacts of wind power generation on the dynamic behavior of the power system concerned.This paper investigates the impacts of large amount of wind power on small signal stability and the corresponding control strategies to mitigate the negative effects.The concepts of different types of wind turbine generators(WTGs)and the principles of the grid-connected structures of wind power generation systems are first briefly introduced.Then,the state-of-the-art of the studies on the impacts of WTGs on small signal stability as well as potential problems to be studied are clarified.Finally,the control strategies on WTGs to enhance power system damping characteristics are presented.
