The Science and Technology Volunteer Service Team of the Chinese Vacuum Society carries out volunteer service activities for space breeding technology docking

        From March 20 to 21, 2021, in order to implement the requirements of the "Smart Action" science and technology volunteer service of the China Association for Science and Technology, the science and technology volunteer service team of the Chinese Vacuum Society, which is based in the 510th Institute, went deep into the grassroots, led by Li Detian, an academician of the International Academy of Astronautics, vice president of the Chinese Vacuum Society, and director of the Science and Technology Committee of the 510th Institute, and participated by the Gansu Provincial Science and Technology Association, the Science and Technology Committee of the 510th Institute, and the Jingtai County Science and Technology Association, went to Tianshui Shenzhou Lvpeng Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd. to carry out aerospace breeding technology docking and exchange activities.

        As the saying goes, a seed can change the world. Farmers make their living from seeds, and good varieties are the decisive factors for agricultural production and harvest. To develop modern agriculture, we must develop modern seed industry. Therefore, national aerospace breeding is a major project of national strategic emerging industries.

        Tianshui Shenzhou Lvpeng Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd. is a Chinese western aerospace breeding base. Among the same industry in China, the largest and most fruitful enterprise under the Aerospace Shenzhou Biotechnology Group Co., Ltd. of the China Academy of Space Technology has the Gansu Province Aerospace Breeding Engineering Technology Research Center, the Gansu Province Aerospace Engineering Biological Breeding Key Laboratory and the Enterprise Academician Workstation. It is a "National High-tech Industrialization Base" recognized by the National Development and Reform Commission. It has 1202 copies of crop seeds and koji seeds in 14 categories that have been carried by spacecraft, successfully bred more than 35,000 copies of high-quality seeds, and established a space breeding gene bank. 44 new crop varieties have been selected and bred, including space wheat, five-leaf alfalfa, pepper, eggplant, tomato, etc. With the support of local governments in many provinces and cities, the company has cooperated with local enterprises to establish nearly 100 space new variety planting and promotion bases, which have been promoted to 28 provinces and regions across the country, forming an integrated pattern of "breeding, propagation and promotion" of important economic crops, mainly vegetables.

       Through technical exchanges and negotiations, under the witness of everyone, Tianshui Shenzhou Lvpeng Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd. and Jingtai County Rural Professional and Technical Federation reached a cooperation intention on breeding, reproduction and promotion, and presented 15 acres of trial seeds of corn, peppers, etc. on site, and provided on-site guidance when the opportunity arose. This event is a beneficial exploration of the 510th Institute based on aerospace, rooted in the west, and promoting the construction of the local national economy.
