1. Research Concerns
(1) For the scientific objective of improving drought resistance of crops and efficient use of water resources, the team conducts research on the development and application technology for soil moisture retention, drought resistance and anti-transpirant, photosynthetic enhancement, as well as multi-source and stress-resistant oligosaccharide materials.
(2) Focusing on the risk evaluation and comprehensive prevention and control of agricultural film pollution, the team is engaged in the research and development of controllable and fully biodegradable mulching materials and novel products; studies on film adaptability evaluation and mulching security duration; evaluation, monitoring and predicting potential threats posed by mulching film residue; and dynamic characteristics and safety evaluation of soil pollutants generated from mulching film.
