The central rural work conference held at the end of last year and this year's document 1 all focused on agricultural science and technology innovation. This is the first time in the history of agricultural development in China to unify thoughts and gather strength in this way, and vigorously promote the reform and development of agricultural science and technology, which is of milestone significance in the history of agricultural science and technology development in China. The document 1 made some scientific judgments with important theoretical innovations, issued a series of policies and measures with high gold content and long-term management, systematically and comprehensively planned the strategic layout of agricultural science and technology development, and pointed out the direction and goal of future agricultural science and technology development, which is highly realistic, targeted and forward-looking. It not only grasps the key points of development, responds to grassroots concerns, takes into account the current and long-term, but also enriches and develops the party's policy system in the new period on the basis of maintaining policy continuity; It not only grasps the fundamental way out for developing modern agriculture and affirms the importance of agricultural science and technology, but also shows the whole society that the fundamental way out, the greatest potential and the powerful driving force for ensuring the stable development of grain and agriculture and continuously enhancing the supply guarantee capacity of agricultural products lie in science and technology.
Looking back on the road of agricultural science and technology innovation and development in the past 60 years, from the "eight-character constitution" in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China to the scientific assertion that science and technology are the primary productive force, from the proposal of the strategy of "invigorating agriculture through science and education" to the direction of "the fundamental way out for agricultural development lies in scientific and technological progress", every major theory on agricultural science and technology will bring about a great leap in agricultural science and technology and provide a strong thrust for China's agricultural and rural development. Now, with the release and implementation of document 1, the driving force of agricultural science and technology development will be stronger, the guarantee of agricultural science and technology development will be stronger, and the space for agricultural science and technology development will be broader. We will surely usher in another spring of agricultural science and technology innovation and development under the new situation.
