A new advanced testing machine for better infrastructure
Solomon Islands has reached a major milestone with the commissioning of its first Universal Testing Machine (UTM), boosting the country's ability to independently test and verify the quality and safety of construction materials.
The new equipment will help the Ministry of Infrastructure Development test the quality and strength of construction materials used in roads, bridges, buildings and other public infrastructure. The UTM will help deliver safer, stronger and longer-lasting infrastructure across Solomon Islands.
MID technicians have also received training to operate and maintain the machine, building local expertise.
Implemented by the Solomon Islands Government, the CAUSE II Project is supported by the World Bank and the Australian Government through the PNG and Pacific Islands Umbrella Facility Multi-Donor Trust Fund.
新型先进测试机助力基础设施建设
所罗门群岛在其首台通用测试机(UTM)投入使用之际,达成了一个重要里程碑,提升了该国独立测试和验证建筑材料质量与安全的能力。
新设备将帮助基础设施发展部测试用于道路、桥梁、建筑和其他公共基础设施的建筑材料的质量和强度。UTM将帮助所罗门群岛提供更安全、更坚固和更持久的基础设施。
基础设施发展部的技术人员也接受了操作和维护该机器的培训,培养本地专业技能。
该项目由所罗门群岛政府实施,CAUSE II项目得到了世界银行和澳大利亚政府通过巴布亚新几内亚和太平洋岛国伞形设施多捐赠者信托基金的支持。

Chinese Specialists Complete Rice Transplanting at Joint Demonstration Base in Honiara
Since June 2026, four agricultural experts including two rice specialists,one vegetable specialist and one fertilizer specialist from Jiangsu Academy of Agricultural Sciences (JAAS) have been carrying out agricultural technical assistance to Solomon Islands. After preliminary ground preparation, seedling raising, water source salinity monitoring and other foundational work, the project has fully launched hands-on rice transplanting operations and technical observation training at this stage. The rice seedlings are growing robustly in the fields after planting. Nine agronomy students from Solomon Islands National University (SINU) participated in the transplanting work, observation sessions and field management throughout the process, consolidating their professional expertise based on field practice.
The rice experts coordinated both manual and mechanized rice transplanting operations, finishing transplanting across approximately one hectare of experimental and demonstration rice fields in total. Mechanized transplanting greatly boosted planting efficiency, while standardized planting ensured uniform seedling density.
To systematically promote advanced seedling raising technologies, the expert team organized on-site observation seminars focusing on two seedling raising methods: water tray seedling raising and dry tray seedling raising. Officials from the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock(MAL) of Solomon Islands and frontline agricultural technicians from all provinces attended the seminars. The Chinese experts gave on-site demonstrations of the full operational procedures for both tray seedling raising techniques, breaking down core technologies including seedling substrate preparation, water and fertilizer regulation, and seedling disease prevention and control. They also answered questions on site and provided hands-on guidance to participants on distinguishing robust seedlings from weak ones.
All transplanted rice seedlings in the one-hectare demonstration paddy field have recovered successfully, featuring lush green leaves and normal tillering with an overall sound growth status.
In the next phase, the Chinese agricultural experts team will conduct refined paddy field management, continuously monitor and control diseases, pests and weeds, and deliver tiered specialized technical training for agricultural technicians from various provinces. Meanwhile, the team will continue to guide agronomy students from SINU in daily field management, enabling them to fully master water and fertilizer management as well as integrated pest, disease and weed control techniques throughout the entire rice growth cycle.
This agricultural technical assistance project is jointly supported by the Embassy of the People’s Republic of China in Solomon Islands and Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock under the long-term agricultural science and technology cooperation framework between JAAS and MAL. The project further deepens practical agricultural science and technology cooperation between China and Solomon Islands, with the aim to raise the comprehensive production capacity of rice and vegetables in Solomon Islands.
中国专家在霍尼亚拉联合示范基地完成水稻移栽
自2026年6月以来,来自江苏省农业科学院(JAAS)的四位农业专家,包括两位水稻专家、一位蔬菜专家和一位肥料专家,正在为所罗门群岛提供农业技术援助。在初步的土地准备、育苗、水源盐度监测等基础工作完成后,项目已全面启动水稻移栽操作和技术观察培训。目前,移栽后的水稻幼苗在田间生长良好。九名来自所罗门群岛国立大学(SINU)的农学学生参与了整个过程中的移栽工作、观察课程和田间管理,巩固了他们基于实践的专业知识。
水稻专家协调了手工和机械化的水稻移栽操作,总共在约一公顷的实验和示范稻田中完成了移栽。机械化移栽大大提高了种植效率,而标准化的种植确保了均匀的幼苗密度。
为了系统推广先进的育苗技术,专家团队组织了现场观察研讨会,重点介绍了水盘育苗和干盘育苗两种育苗方法。所罗门群岛农业和畜牧业部(MAL)的官员及各省的前线农业技术人员参加了研讨会。中国专家现场演示了两种育苗技术的完整操作流程,详细讲解了包括育苗基质准备、水肥调控和幼苗病害防治等核心技术。他们还现场解答了问题,并为参与者提供了如何区分健壮幼苗与弱苗的实操指导。
所有在一公顷示范稻田中移栽的水稻幼苗均已成功恢复,叶片青翠,分蘖正常,整体生长状态良好。
在下一阶段,中国农业专家团队将进行精细的稻田管理,持续监测和控制病虫害及杂草,并为各省的农业技术人员提供分层的专业技术培训。同时,团队将继续指导SINU的农学学生进行日常田间管理,使他们在整个水稻生长周期内全面掌握水肥管理及病虫害和杂草的综合防控技术。
该农业技术援助项目由中华人民共和国驻所罗门群岛大使馆和农业和畜牧业部共同支持,属于JAAS与MAL之间长期农业科技合作框架下的项目。该项目进一步深化了中国与所罗门群岛之间的农业科技合作,旨在提高所罗门群岛水稻和蔬菜的综合生产能力。
