The tenth provincial laboratory in Zhejiang Province was settled.

Recently, the Zhejiang Provincial Government formally approved the establishment of the Xianghu Lab. Relying on the Zhejiang Academy of Agricultural Sciences, this new R & D institution is also the only provincial laboratory in Zhejiang Province.

What mission does this young provincial laboratory shoulder? At the establishment of the conference a few days ago, Yong Jinjun learned about the information.

Agricultural

Xiaoshan Economic and Technological Development Zone, Xiaoshan Science and Technology City Entrepreneurship Valley Building, a 7,000 -square -meter building, is the starting point of the Hunan Lake Lab.

A few days ago at the establishment of the conference, the young provincial laboratory opened the mysterious veil for the first time: modern agriculture and biological manufacturing Zhejiang Laboratory.

The Hunan Lake Laboratory is committed to solving major scientific and technological issues of the basic, global and critical in Zhejiang's agricultural and rural economic development.

According to the plan, the laboratory focuses on the two major research clusters of modern biochemical innovation and green, healthy and efficient agricultural agriculture.

The former revolves around the core species, and focuses on the "biological breeding theory and method" and "agricultural core species creation" research; the latter is supported by it, and the research on good breeds and good products is carried out. Agricultural Health "and" Green Product Biological Manufacturing ".

Li Peiwu, director of the laboratory and academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, uses one sentence to summarize the research goals of the laboratory: let everyone eat, healthy, and nutritious!

Some people may notice that as early as the Zhejiang Provincial Party Committee No. 1 in the 2022 Zhejiang Provincial Party Committee announced in May, the birth of the Hunan Lake Lab has already had "previews": layout to build the Zhejiang Laboratory in the agricultural field and build an agricultural science and technology highland.

For the first time, Yong Jinjun heard that the relevant content was at the first regular meeting of the provincial agricultural "double strong" operation class held at the end of April.

Since last year, Zhejiang has proposed the high -quality development ideas of strong technology and mechanical farmers. "Jumping out of agriculture to develop agriculture", the province has overall resources in a larger scale.

For example, in terms of seedling industry, the Provincial Agricultural and Rural Affairs Department leads the overall planning to promote the revitalization of the seed industry, and builds and improves the protection system for the protection of seed resources; ; The Provincial State -owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission is responsible for the establishment of Zhejiang Seed Industry Group to cultivate a number of leading enterprises in breeding and pushing into the industry.

The Xianghu Lab will become an important platform for key core technology in Zhejiang's agricultural "double strong" operation.

"The areas and areas of the key layout of the Hunan Lake Laboratory are the key areas that need to be touched and promoted in our province's agricultural" double strong "." In the future, the two parties will aim at the following three aspects of cooperation:

Focus on the major scientific and technological projects of new agricultural varieties, promote the technical research of high -quality rice, rapeseed, camellia and other core species sources, and promote the selection and promotion of excellent varieties;

Promote the research and development and application of key core technologies such as the new generation of independent and controllable gene editing tools, and strengthen the selection and industrialization test of crop transgenic varieties;

In addition, the two parties will also cooperate with key core technologies such as seeds and soil to empower the high -quality agricultural development in Zhejiang Province.

Why is Xiaoshan

Following the unveiling of Zhejiang's ninth provincial laboratory and Baima Lake Laboratory on June 9th, just one week later, the Hunan Lake Lab became the latest puzzle on the innovative territory.

In terms of organizational structure, the Hunan Lake Lab will form four major scientific research organization systems including the Institute of Biotechnology, the Institute of Garming Resources, the Institute of Biological Interactions, and the Institute of Biological Manufacturing.

In the future, the main body of the Xianghu Lab will land on the Qiantang River International Innovation Belt, with a total construction area of ​​67,000 square meters.

The current layout of 10 Zhejiang Laboratory is sorted out. Previously, the provincial laboratory in Hangzhou was mostly concentrated in the Chengxi Science and Technology Corridor. The Xianghu Lab is the first son of the provincial laboratory in Xiaoshan District.

Why is Xiaoshan? The relevant person in charge of Xiaoshan District stated at the establishment conference that he hopes to achieve "win -win" in scientific and technological innovation and industrial upgrading.

From the perspective of agricultural "double strong", the "base" of Xiaoshan District is very solid. There are 147 agricultural enterprises in the city level and above, accounting for nearly a quarter of Hangzhou.

In terms of seedling industry, the Zhejiang Provincial Graduate Fair, which was recently participated in the Junjun, was hosted by the headquarters in Xiaoshan District. And this local old -fashioned company is also the main force of Zhejiang's high -quality seeds to output to various places. For example, 50 % of the planting area of ​​the rice in Guangxi is a variety of Zhejiang species.

In terms of agricultural green and high -quality development, Xiaoshan District is the first batch of comprehensive pilot counties in Zhejiang Province. It has strong strength in promoting agricultural investment to reduce efficiency, green ecological prevention and control technology innovation and application.

From the perspective of the industry, life and health are one of the three pillar industries of Xiaoshan, and the technological innovation of the Xianghu Lab can also empower the construction of industrial chain such as biomedical and medical equipment.

According to the plan, the five -year construction capital of the Xianghu Labs was about 3 billion yuan, of which 500 million yuan was invested in hardware such as scientific research equipment, 500 million yuan was invested in daily operations, and two billion yuan was used for talent funds and scientific research special funds.

Yong Jinjun was informed that Academician Li Peiwu was the director of the laboratory and received positive support from the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences.The Zhejiang Academy of Agricultural Sciences will be fully involved in the laboratory construction of the Laboratory in Xiaoshan District. The scientific and technological personnel of the Provincial Academy of Agricultural Sciences will also participate in the laboratory scientific research tasks and strengthen the cooperation of colleges and universities and industry leaders with the Brothers' Academy.In terms of employment mechanisms, the Hunan Lake Lab will focus on building a bird -based team, amphibious team, and migratory bird -type team to weave an innovative network in a task coordinating system.

"Zhejiang, especially Hangzhou Agricultural Research Institute, and universities, of course, will be one of the focus of the Xianghu Laboratory.Project. "Academician Li Peiwu said.
