Abstract:
The agriculture of China must depend on the innovation of science and technology for the development of agricultural water-saving and the increases of water use efficiency to accomplish the change from extensive irrigated agriculture and rain-fed agriculture to the modern and high efficient irrigated agriculture, rain-fed agriculture and ecological agriculture. Therefore, on the basis of the success achieved in agricultural water-saving science and technology in the Ninth Five-Year Period, China should increase the support on the development of agricultural water-saving science and technology, strengthen the infrastructure construction of agricultural water-saving science and technology, improve the conditions for the innovation of agricultural water-saving technology, speed up the innovation of agricultural water-saving technology, and establish the system and standard of agricultural water-saving technology with Chinese characteristics as soon as possible in order to realize the leapt development of agricultural water-saving in China.
