During 16-18 July, “The Third Technology and Experience Exchange Meeting on Green Solutions to Crop Succession Obstacles” was held in Shijiazhuang. Over 600 people from research units, universities, agricultural production corporations, extension units and farmer households have attend in the meeting.

The theme of the meeting is “To solve the crop succession obstacles, to promote rural revitalization”. The meeting is aiming at communicating new ideas, new achievements, new technologies, new products and new experience on solving crop succession obstacles in the production. Several topics such as “study on the mechanism of endophytic fungi alleviating continuous cropping obstacles of crops”，“exploitation and innovative utilization of bio-control spore resources”, and “green soil remediation technology”have been discussed during the meeting. Dr. MA Ping from Institute of Plant Protection of HAAFS presented a report on “Large-scale detection and biological control of soil-borne pathogens in crops”, Researcher WANG Zhanwu from Institute of Genetics and Physiology of HAAFS expressed a presentation on “Research and application of bio-remediation of degraded soil”. Other presentations were showed focus on improvement of soil barrier in continuous cropping of protected vegetables, effects of different planting patterns on the occurrence of verticillium wilt in cotton, detection system of Rhizoctonia solani, identification of antimicrobial substances of Bacillus subtilis strain, etc..

Through the academic exchange and discussion of this meeting, new technologies and products have been expressed, new ideas have been come up with for green control on crop succession obstacle. The meeting has strengthened deep communication between research units, corporations and farmers, and actively promoted high-quality development of agriculture.
