In the area of agricultural science and technology, China is gradually approaching the world advanced level. The rate of contribution which progress in science and technology contributes to agriculture has reached 42%. The departments of agricultural science and technology have achieved significant successes in biological techniques, the latest technology and basic research. China ranks first worldwide in the investigation into the cultivation of cells and tissues of plants in anther culture and cultivation of seeds through monoploide and implementation. The study of hybrid rice of two systems, the cultivation of hybrid maize seeds, the technology of multi-crop farming with fine and careful care, etc. have reached or are approaching, the world advanced level. Has been accomplished in the investigation of the use of hybrid

soyas. Since 1949, Chinese scientists have created more than 40 varieties of plants of agricultural value, nearly 5,000 new varieties and new clusters of high performance, excellent quality and high resistance and have allowed four or five times to renew the main crop varieties. Each time you renew, normally increases production by 10 to 30%. The yield of cereals crops in China has reached 4820 kg per hectare. Chinese scientist Yuan Longping, internationally known as the "father of hybrid rice", has marked a milestone in the history of china cereal crop in the late twentieth century, with its achievements in the area of hybrid rice. Yuan Longping in 2003, again surpassing the issues raised in the hybrid rice double-system, managed to reach its rice superhíbrido pay in two pilot sites, 12,112 kg and 12,261 kg per hectare. Currently superhíbrido rice is grown on large surfaces. Yuan Longping has set the following goal achievement by the year 2008, rice yield superhíbrido that 13,500 kg per hectare. Government departments concerned planned and carried out a series of scientific and technological developments that benefit the economic development of rural areas, which included the Xinghuo the Promotion of Important Tree Scientists, good harvest, and Liaoyuan. Thanks to these initiatives, many scientific advances have come to rural areas and have entered the houses of farmers, making outstanding contributions to promoting scientific and technological qualities of the peasantry.
