Strengthen the "agricultural core" and stabilize China's rice bowl

2022-04-14

"Seeds are the key to China's food security. Only by holding Chinese seeds tightly with your own hands can you stabilize China's rice bowl and achieve food security." Seeds are the "chip" of agriculture and the "source" to ensure national food security and high-quality agricultural development. Since the 13th five year plan, China's seed industry has achieved remarkable results. The seed industry "chip" has made continuous innovations and breakthroughs. The coverage rate of improved varieties of crops is more than 96%, and the area of self selected varieties accounts for more than 95%. The two major ration crop varieties of rice and wheat have achieved complete self-sufficiency, hybrid rice is internationally leading, and major new crop varieties are emerging. However, China's seed breeding industry is still facing problems such as insufficient environmental protection and safe utilization of seed resources. Only by making greater efforts and greater articles on "one seed" can we hold China's rice bowl more firmly. A seed can change a world, and a technology can create a miracle. The fundamental way to promote seed industry innovation lies in science and technology. At present, the world seed industry is ushering in a modern seed industry scientific and technological revolution marked by the integrated development of technologies such as gene editing, synthetic biology and artificial intelligence. In order to seize the opportunity and realize the great leap forward development of the seed industry, on the one hand, we should strengthen "great alliance" and "great cooperation", break through a number of key common technical difficulties, solve a number of "neck sticking" problems, integrate and innovate a number of practical models, and cultivate a number of major varieties with independent intellectual property rights, so as to make the innovation ability of key crops and livestock and poultry breeding in China close to or reach the world-class level; On the other hand, the scientific and technological breakthrough of seed industry and the reform of talent development system and mechanism should have greater efforts and further planned innovation, lay a solid foundation for increasing the reserve talent reserve for the revitalization of seed industry, and provide strong talent support for the early realization of independent and controllable seed sources of important agricultural products. Agricultural germplasm resources are the basis of the development of modern seed industry. At present, it is necessary to quickly find out the family background and development trend of China's agricultural germplasm resources, effectively collect and protect rare, endangered and unique resources, and realize the collection and protection of all accounts receivable. At the same time, we should speed up the construction of a number of germplasm resource banks with complete categories and rich reserves, build a national unified big data platform for agricultural germplasm resources, improve the information disclosure, sharing and exchange mechanism of germplasm resources, improve the capacity of large-scale resource identification and gene mining, and form a number of internationally competitive germplasm and gene resources. The seed industry is a systematic project. Promoting the revitalization of the seed industry has a long way to go. This is a long and arduous process, which can not be achieved overnight. We should have historical patience and strategic determination. Yuan Longping, the "father of hybrid rice", Guo Sandui, the "father of insect resistant cotton in China", and Wu Mingzhu, the "melon king", have worked hard and made silent contributions all their lives, exchanging their youth, wisdom and sweat for excellent seeds. Willing to sit on the bench, sharpen a sword in ten years, work for a long time, concentrate on nothing and work deeply and carefully, which will accelerate the transformation of seed industry development from following and running to leading. The country is based on agriculture, and agriculture comes first. With a sense of urgency and a sense of responsibility, we have the courage to innovate and make breakthroughs and boldly meet challenges. We have the ability and confidence to do a good job in the development of the seed industry, install more and more "Chinese cores" in the seed industry, and firmly hold the rice bowl of the Chinese people in our own hands.
