"In agricultural modernization, seeds are the foundation. It is necessary to carry out ethnic seed industry, raise the safety of seed sources to a strategic height related to national security, concentrate on solving problems, making up shortcomings, strengthening advantages and controlling risks, and realize the self-reliance and self-control of seed industry science and technology." Biological seed industry, as the "chip" of modern agriculture, is the basis for ensuring national food security, promoting the construction of ecological civilization and realizing rural revitalization.
Compared with the international advanced level, the development of biological seed industry in China still has many shortcomings and faces great challenges. At present, the world seed industry is welcoming a modern biological breeding revolution with the integration of artificial intelligence, whole genome selection and other technologies. Talent is the key to break through the bottleneck of provenance and win the turn of seed industry. The establishment of biological breeding specialty is an important way to strengthen the original innovation and integration of seed technology in China and enhance the national strategic scientific and technological strength. It is also an important measure to thoroughly implement the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee on seed industry transformation, actively promote the "six excellent and one top" plan 2.0, optimize the professional layout, continuously improve the quality of personnel training, and strive to lead the construction and development of new agricultural science.
