With the rapid increase in population, the world's demand for oil crops and edible oil has increased sharply. However, among the edible oils to be consumed in China, only peanut oil and sesame oil can be fully self-sufficient and accompanied by a small amount of exports, and other types of oils such as rapeseed oil, sunflower oil, corn oil and other types of oil have a more serious external dependence.
On October 26th, Henan Agricultural University and Tianrun Wuhua (Beijing) Ecological Technology Co., Ltd. held a signing ceremony for the signing ceremony of the letter of intent for cooperation in Zhengzhou. The two sides hope to completely end the history of Chinese long-term dependence on foreign imports of edible oil by making the tungzi industry bigger and stronger, and arch a great wall of steel for China's grain and oil security.

Kang Xiangtao, vice president of Henan Agricultural University, and Guo Nan, general manager of Tianrun Wuhua (Beijing) Ecological Technology Co., Ltd., signed a cooperation agreement on behalf of both parties. According to the agreement, the 'Yuji' Shantongzi fine seed implementation license contract is valid for 10 years, and every year Tianrun Wuhua (Beijing) Ecological Technology Co., Ltd. gives Henan Agricultural University no less than 1 million yuan of good seed implementation license fee, which will accumulate more than 10 million yuan of achievement transformation funds. In addition, in line with the purpose of combining production, education and research and mutual benefit and win-win results, the two sides agreed to jointly build the "TianrunShan Tongzi Research Institute of Henan Agricultural University", and Tianrun Wuhua (Beijing) Ecological Technology Co., Ltd. invested 500 million yuan in the construction and operation of the first phase of the (2022-2026) phase I planning and construction period.
Professor Jie Xiaolei, president of Henan Agricultural University, said that he hopes that through in-depth cooperation between the two sides, the school's scientific and technological innovation ability will be enhanced, facing the first line of agricultural production, strengthening the in-depth integration of production, education and research, promoting the transformation of scientific and technological achievements, focusing on solving the major "stuck neck" problem in agricultural production, and contributing to the promotion of China's agricultural modernization construction and the development of agricultural science and education.
Feng Jiaping, executive vice president of the China Forestry Industry Federation, believes that China is currently facing the dangerous situation that edible oil consumption is heavily dependent on imports, and through the development of the shantongzi industry, it will help to take the lead in realizing the strategic task of international and domestic double circulation of grain and oil, and it is very likely to achieve the goal of safe self-sufficiency in oilseeds in China, and at the same time drive farmers to become rich.
'Yuji' Shantongzi is the first and currently the only provincial fine seed in China, with the advantages of high yield, high quality, resistance to stress or wide adaptability. The promotion and application of the fine seeds of Tung zi will have a positive impact on the construction of the forestry ecological system and industrial system in our province.
