Over the past 50 years, the college has continuously applied scientific and technological innovations to agricultural production practice and provided all-round scientific and technological services for rural economic development. 47 new varieties of large (small) Chinese cabbage selected by Vegetable Research Center have been popularized and applied in 28 provinces and cities in China. The cultivated watermelon varieties of Xin Jing and Jingyu series have become the main varieties in the Beijing market, with a cumulative promotion area of 560,000 mu, increasing farmers' income by more than 200 million yuan; After 50 years of unremitting efforts by several generations of forest fruit experts, 40 new peach varieties have been cultivated, which has laid a solid foundation for the industrialization development and upgrading of Pinggu big peach. Modern agricultural information technology represented by precision agriculture, intelligent greenhouse equipment and agricultural expert system has reached the advanced level in the world, and its achievements have been widely promoted and applied not only in the whole country, but also in Southeast Asia and other places. Urban modern agricultural production technology, represented by biological control technology, organic agricultural production technology, new fertilizer and circular agricultural technology, has been widely promoted in Beijing suburbs and surrounding areas; The farmers' distance education and training system has established 628 distance education sites in China, including 436 in Beijing, which has realized the connection between urban and rural areas of distance education in the suburbs of Beijing and started to enter villages and households, effectively improving farmers' scientific, technological and cultural literacy. Open the school, strengthen exchanges and cooperation with the outside world, and further improve the scientific and technological innovation and service level of the college. Through the establishment of comprehensive scientific and technological cooperation with districts and counties, it has promoted the development and upgrading of regional industries such as Daxing watermelon, Pinggu peach, Fangshan edible fungus and Miyun chestnut, and provided strong scientific and technological support for local farmers to increase their income, increase agricultural efficiency and sustainable rural development. More than 200 experts from the Institute have been conducting scientific experiments and demonstrating achievements in nearly 400 bases in the suburbs of Beijing for a long time, constantly conveying new achievements, new technologies, new products and new processes to farmers, which has effectively promoted the transformation of agricultural scientific and technological achievements.
Looking back on the ups and downs of the past 50 years, it is the agricultural spirit of "unity and forge ahead, seeking truth from facts, pioneering and innovating" that keeps us moving towards new glory; Looking forward to the future, the College will take the victory of the 17th National Congress and the 50th anniversary of the establishment of the College as an opportunity for development, adhere to the principle of "open, orderly, efficient operation, emphasizing innovation and strong support", take solving key technical problems in the development of urban modern agriculture and new rural construction as the main task, improve the ability of scientific and technological innovation, transformation of scientific and technological achievements and scientific and technological support, and strive to build Beijing Academy of Agricultural Sciences into a national first-class agricultural research institute.
