”How much room is there to further increase cotton production?” “How to realize grain and cotton rotation, Achieve two years and three crops?” On March 22, the Western Agricultural Research Center (Science and Technology Assistance Headquarters) of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences (hereinafter referred to as the “Western Center”) held an innovation team launch meeting. Professors and agricultural experts from Bingdi University focused on cotton There was a heated discussion on how to develop the industry with high quality.
This innovation team launch meeting focused on high-quality cotton production models and Technology, western grain and cotton rotation technology, cotton layout and low-carbon production technology have formed three innovative teams, aiming to solve the “stuck neck” technical problems of cotton planting, improve cotton yield and quality, and help the high-quality development of Xinjiang and Xinjiang Xinjiang Xinjiang Xinjiang Xinjiang Xinjiang Xinjiang Xinjiang Xinjiang Xinjiang Xinjiang Xinjiang Xinjiang Xinjiang Xinjiang Xinjiang Xinjiang Xinjiang Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region’s cotton industry’s production technology.
In 2022, Xinjiang’s cotton planting area will account for 83.2% of the country’s total. The total cotton output accounts for 90.2% of the country’s total. Cotton cultivation generally adopts technologies such as mulch covering sowing and integrated water and fertilizer drip irrigation, and machine harvesting is basically realized. With the improvement of cotton quality requirements of textile enterprises, the problem of high impurity content in machine-picked cotton has become increasingly prominent. Cotton planting urgently needs improved seeds and methods that are more suitable for machine-picked operations.
”Our team will conduct scientific and technological research based on high-quality cotton planting technology , breaking the negative correlation between high cotton quality and early maturity, high yield, disease resistance, salt-alkali tolerance, drought resistance and other traits, and achieving the organic unity of high quality, high yield and high efficiency.” Song Meizhen, chief scientist of the high-quality cotton production model and technology innovation team explain.
Dong Helin, chief scientist of the Western Grain and Cotton Rotation Technology Innovation Team, introduced that the team Facing the main battlefield of grain and cotton production in Xinjiang, research on grain and cotton rotation planting systems and technological innovation will be carried out to ensure the balanced development of grain and cotton production in Xinjiang.
This year, the Western Center has decided to form 9 innovation teams and will In the next three years, 15 innovation teams will be formed. The team members will be composed of chief scientists, professors from military colleges and universities, and relevant experts from agricultural science institutes in various divisions and cities of the Corps. Through exchanges and learning in cooperation, they will play the role of “teaching and mentoring” and cultivate a team of innovative teams. A team of agricultural scientific research talents that “cannot be taken away”.
Gao Lei, director (general commander) of the Western Center, introduced that it will be passed Integrate the strength of relevant scientific research units of the country, autonomous regions and corps to form an innovation team and build a scientific and technological innovation platform to jointly carry out scientific research and achievement transformation, and work together to solve common problems in industrial development technology and key core technical issues to provide solid technical support for the high-quality development of agriculture in Xinjiang and Xinjiang.
