From the beginning of September, the corn in Northeast China has gradually entered the mature period, and corn farmers are preparing for harvest. In this harvest season, Zhang Xudong, head of the conservation tillage team at the Institute of Applied Ecology (IAE), Chinese Academy of Sciences, also harvested the fruit of his scientific research.

Directly use the no-tillage seeding-machine to sow, instead of cleaning up the straw and preparing the soil — this is the 'conservation tillage with straw mulching' technology. Prof. Zhang Xudong, a research scientist from the Institute of Applied Ecology, Chinese Academy of Sciences said: "conservation tillage technology is a modern farming technology system based on crop straw mulching and no-till sowing,

From October 11th to 13th, 2020, the annual conference of China Botanical Gardens was held in Shenyang, Liaoning, with an aim of discussing functions and social responsibility of botanical gardens and promoting the long-term development of botanical gardens in China.

These talks raised the interest of the participants in related research and helped them learn about more new techniques and methods.
