61 agricultural science and technology products go global and enter international markets

?The Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences released the 2016 progress of its Overseas Agricultural Research Center on November 17, showing that China's agricultural technologies and products have spread across more than 150 countries in Asia, Africa, the Americas and Europe, and 61 new technologies and new products in fields such as breeding, plant protection, livestock and veterinary medicine, and agricultural machinery have achieved "going global."

?Representative examples include: cultivating second-generation green super conventional rice and hybrid rice for Asian and African countries. As of now, in target countries and regions in Asia and Africa, a total of 38 green super conventional rice varieties and 26 hybrid rice varieties have passed variety approval and been distributed to farmers, generally increasing yields by 20%-30% compared with local varieties; the total area promoted for green super rice in target countries in Asia and Africa has reached 2.1 million hectares, including 450,000 hectares in Africa and 1.7 million hectares in Southeast Asia, with farmers' income expected to increase by USD 546 million. In Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan, Zhongmian series varieties and supporting cultivation techniques were promoted. At present, Zhongmian series varieties have passed approval in Kyrgyzstan and become local main planted varieties, with a promotion area of more than 150,000 mu, effectively increasing cotton per-unit yield by more than 60%; in addition, new cotton varieties have been successfully promoted to African countries such as Sudan and Tanzania. In response to the agricultural conditions in Myanmar and Laos, an integrated pest management technology system for rice and corn pests based mainly on biological control was established, with 14 large-scale Trichogramma production facilities built in each country, capable of supplying Trichogramma cards for 50,000 mu of rice and corn, and training more than 10 Trichogramma production facility managers, more than 160 large-scale production technicians, more than 100 trainers in integrated pest management technology and Trichogramma application technology, and 12,000 farmers, with cumulative demonstration and promotion of integrated management technology for rice and corn each exceeding 100,000 mu. Highly pathogenic avian influenza vaccines have been stably exported to Egypt, Southeast Asia and other countries and regions. An inactivated vaccine against Egypt-specific strains (Egy/PR8-1 strain) was developed, with effects significantly better than Egypt's original vaccines. Since 2010, it has been successfully launched in the Egyptian market, with cumulative exports of nearly 570 million doses and foreign exchange earnings of about USD 6.27 million. New feed phytase technology has been widely promoted worldwide, with phytase applied in more than 70% of feed globally, generating economic benefits exceeding 60 billion yuan.
