A long table, a pen, a water cup, in the activity area of the "100 Expert Service Group" of the 28th China Yangling Agricultural High Association, Liu Chaobin, associate professor of the College of Forestry of Northwest A & F University, has received more than a dozen farmers and friends early in the morning.

As a well-known walnut research expert, every year in the late autumn, no matter how busy he is, he has to push away the chores in his hands and go to the agricultural high meeting to "support a trick" for walnut growers across the country.

"In the past, most of them were retail households who came to consult, but now many of them are large planters and cooperative directors, and the questions asked are more specific, more professional, forward-looking, and are good questions!" For many years, Liu Chaobin keenly felt the change, "Improving quality and efficiency and scientific planting are constantly going deep into the field. ”

Known as the "Agricultural Olympics", the Yangling Agricultural High School is a window for observing the development and progress of modern agriculture in China. The 28th Yangling Agricultural High Conference, with the theme of "scientific and technological innovation leading rural revitalization", has set up 8 exhibition halls and 2100 standard booths, with a total exhibition area of 200,000 square meters.

Comprehensively displaying new products and new technologies of agricultural science and technology innovation at home and abroad, and demonstrating and promoting new models and new experiences in rural revitalization are important functions of the Agricultural High Commission. In the agricultural high-tech exhibition area, a wonderful plant factory stands out. Unlike traditional soil cultivation, crops such as cream lettuce and tomato thrive in a suitable environment composed of organic matter, fill lights, thermostats, etc.

"This is an all-artificial light plant factory, which mainly relies on computers to accurately control the light, temperature, water, gas, fertilizer and other elements of plant growth, and has been applied in the snowy plateau, Gobi desert and islands." Wang Qi, chairman of Shaanxi Xutian Optoelectronic Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd., said.

As the earliest agricultural high-tech industry demonstration zone established in China, Yangling shoulders the mission of supporting and leading the development of modern agriculture in arid and semi-arid areas. At the agricultural high school meeting, one new product after another and new technology were dazzling. Outside the Agricultural High School, there are smart agricultural demonstration parks, professional farmer entrepreneurship parks, and high-tech agricultural experience parks all over Yangling, depicting a new picture of future agricultural development.

"In addition to visiting the exhibition hall of the Agricultural High School, I also visited Yangling's Wisdom Agriculture Demonstration Garden, saw the dragon fruit with yellow heart, tomatoes planted in the nutritious pillow, and tasted the grapes with unique taste." Shang Daqi, a farmer from Shanxi, said, "It's really eye-opening! I left many phone calls from experts and professional farmers, and when I returned, I planned to set aside a field to try out new varieties. ”

Scientific research, testing, promotion, demonstration... Yangling's "agricultural wisdom" is constantly being exported to various places, contributing to agricultural scientific and technological innovation and farmers' income increase. Up to now, Yangling has built 350 agricultural science and technology demonstration and promotion bases in 18 provinces and regions across the country, with a demonstration and promotion area of more than 100 million mu and more than 90 million people.

Not only that, Yangling has also brought more enlightenment to international agricultural exchanges and cooperation. In the SCO Life Hall of the Agricultural High Society, wines, chocolates and various handicrafts from the SCO countries are dazzling. During the current session of the Agricultural High Sea, as the main project of the SCO Agricultural Technology Exchange and Training Demonstration Base, the SCO Modern Agricultural Exchange Center was officially opened in Yangling. Although it is difficult to carry out offline exchanges and training due to the impact of the epidemic, education and training, conferences and exhibitions, and cultural exchanges between SCO countries have long been "flying into the clouds" and have been welcomed.

At this session of the Agricultural High Sea, SCO Secretary-General Norov said through a video message that agriculture is the priority direction of cooperation of the SCO, China has made high achievements in the field of agricultural technology, made outstanding contributions to enhancing the effectiveness of the SCO agricultural cooperation mechanism, and played an important role in improving the quality of agricultural products and the level of agricultural modernization in the SCO region.

Up to now, Yangling Agricultural High School has been successfully held for 27 sessions, attracting tens of thousands of agriculture-related units, tens of millions of merchants and the masses to participate in the exhibition, exhibiting more than 170,000 projects and products, with a total transaction volume of more than 1 trillion yuan, which has played an important role in promoting China's agricultural scientific and technological innovation, driving the development of modern agriculture, and solidly promoting international exchanges and cooperation in agriculture.
