Base introduction

Zhuhai Agricultural Science Wonders (Zhuhai Agricultural Science Research Center) was established in 1963, formerly known as Zhuhai county (later changed to city) Agricultural Science Institute. It is the only comprehensive agricultural scientific research institution in Zhuhai until 2008. It is "Guangdong agricultural science and Technology Park", "Guangdong agricultural regional experimental center", "national subtropical orchid production demonstration base" and "national modern agricultural hi tech Park" New technology demonstration base. It not only undertakes the public welfare responsibilities of service, promotion, demonstration and guidance of general agriculture in Zhuhai, but also undertakes the economic functions of research and development, commercialization and industrialization of scientific and technological achievements. At the same time, it is also an important window for opening up and publicity of the province and city.

There are 9 departments and 2 subordinate enterprises in the center, including office, finance department, scientific research department, industry department, material management department, tourism department, investment promotion office, design department and agricultural and fishery technology promotion station. The center has a total asset value of 150 million yuan and a net value of more than 65 million yuan (excluding land). The core area of the scientific research and production base is more than 2000 mu, with an average annual GDP of nearly 60 million yuan.

Among them, the center Meixi scientific research and production demonstration base is mainly engaged in the research and development of agricultural high-tech and modern agricultural sightseeing, covering an area of more than 2000 mu, basically realizing the modern management of agricultural machinery, and establishing a "green vegetable base" of 5000 mu in the West District of Zhuhai, with the operation mode of "base + company + farmers", driving the local farmers to take the road of specialization and industrialization To become the "vegetable basket project" of Zhuhai municipal government.

Variety resource bank

The center has established a "variety resource bank" of high-quality seedlings and the first agricultural science and technology information network in Zhuhai, and introduced foreign advanced automatic seedling production

The annual production of Phalaenopsis, Cymbidium hybridum and Dendrobium has reached 3.5 million seedlings, with a total output value of more than 40 million yuan and an annual export of 13 million yuan

Ten thousand dollars. By 2008, the center has formed its own advantages in the introduction, development, industrialization and Bioengineering Research of new varieties and new technologies such as famous rare and special flowers, vegetables, melons and fruits. It is at the advanced level in China and has developed a new way of scientific research and production, scientific research and Tourism, scientific research and education and training, scientific research and achievement promotion, scientific research and commerce, Its influence extends to more than ten provinces and cities in China, such as Changchun in Jilin Province and Zhengzhou in Henan Province in the north, Danzhou in Hainan Province and Shenzhen in Guangdong Province in the south.

Tourism reception
