科技赋能

专家盛赞产业融合创新

茶产业的发展，惟创新者胜。以“茶科技”为主题的茶事活动，在吸引众多爱茶人士眼球的同时，也引起刘仲华、李先德、江用文等三位专家的关注。现场,三位专家分别发表视频讲话，盛赞安溪要把创新作为第一动力，以科技赋能茶产业的创新做法。

“中国茶科技创新大赛在安溪举办，体现了铁观音之乡胸怀国之大者，为全行业探路的胸怀和格局。”中国工程院院士刘仲华认为，这项赛事的创办，必将带动一批科技成果的集聚和转化，为中国茶产业的可持续发展注入科技创新的强心针，为我国实现“茶业强国”复兴作出更大贡献。

“希望借助这一赛事平台，能够鼓励促进技术与产业、文化的融合互鉴，迸发出更多新的产业发展思路，为安溪乃至福建、中国的茶产业转型谋变、提质升级探路前行。”联合国世界粮农组织全球重要农业文化遗产科学委员会委员、中国农业科学院农业经济与发展研究所研究员李先德，长期关注安溪铁观音茶文化和茶产业发展，此前曾在央视《大地讲堂》栏目解读安溪铁观音茶文化系统价值与魅力。

李先德认为，安溪拥有100多个茶树栽培品种，1984年全国第一批审定通过的30个茶树良种中,安溪县占了6个,被誉为“茶树良种的宝库”。得天独厚、流传有序的安溪茶文化，如何在新时代发扬光大？李先德表示，根本还是在于科技创新，中国茶科技创新大赛的创办，就是新兴科技与古老茶业融合的一次良好契机。

“安溪茶人的专业素养，给他留下深刻印象。”中国茶叶学会会长江用文说，一年多以前，全国茶产业标准化高峰论坛暨标准化工作年会在安溪召开，科技创新与茶产业标准化等议题息息相关。而今，首届中国茶科技创新大赛又在安溪举办，再一次向全国乃至全世界展现了安溪作为重要茶叶原产地的态度和胸怀。

“百尺竿头能否更进一步，取决于茶产业能否敞开胸怀，主动接纳拥抱新技术的涌入和改造。”在江用文看来，当前生物科技、5G物联网等科技领域不断推陈出新，对传统产业的生存发展提出更高要求。他相信在不久的将来，通过这一赛事平台，必将涌现一批优秀科技创新成果，为中华茶产业注入全新血液和活力，站上更高的舞台。

"Open tea!" Under the leadership of several Chinese tea masters and Anxi Tieguanyin masters, the strongest voice of Anxi Haocha's mining and listing resounded through the mountains and forests. After receiving the mining signal, the tea pickers skillfully picked the standard tea green of Tieguanyin and put it into the tea basket.

At the scene, the first China Tea Science and Technology Innovation Competition with the theme of "Three Tea Coordination and Technology Empowerment" was launched simultaneously. This is also the first national competition in the field of tea science and technology. The competition will create a "magnetic attraction" effect and promote the landing and aggregation of many technical projects in the tea field. Millennium tea has embraced technology and set sail again.

The competition is jointly sponsored by China Tea Society, China Tea Circulation Association, Tea Research Institute of Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Hangzhou Tea Research Institute of All-China Federation of Supply and Marketing Cooperatives, Fujian Provincial Department of Science and Technology, Quanzhou Municipal People's Government, Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University and other units. Organized by the County People's Government and Anxi Tea College of Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University.

This competition is full of "sense of technology". The participating projects are selected from the four directions of green production technology, intelligent equipment technology, tea deep processing technology, packaging, storage and transportation technology, focusing on green, ecology, safety, intelligence and health, mainly including supporting and promoting the high-quality development of the tea industry. , key, implementable technologies and innovations.

New ways of activities. The competition runs from April to November this year. Including the preliminary competition, pre-competition training, finals and other stages, the preliminary competition adopts the method of submitting the project plan by the participants and the online review by the expert committee. The finals will be held in the form of "live roadshow or online roadshow". After the finals, an exhibition of outstanding participating projects will be held to promote exchanges, docking and cooperation between outstanding projects and enterprises. At the same time, the establishment ceremony of "China Oolong Tea Industry Science and Technology Innovation Alliance" was held, including tea industry fund, project investment and other cooperation intention signing activities.

In terms of bonuses, there is a special "landing bonus" to focus on the transformation of scientific and technological achievements. The competition finally selected 37 winners, with a total reward of 1.28 million yuan, of which the landing prize was 520,000 yuan. After each award, there is a separate "landing bonus".

For example, when the award-winning project is implemented, Anxi County can recommend and apply for scientific and technological projects with equal priority. Those who meet the requirements can apply for national-level high-tech enterprises, and can receive a financial reward of not less than 400,000 yuan after identification; those who meet the requirements for introducing high-level talents in Fujian Province , can be recommended to apply for relevant professional teaching and research positions in Anxi Tea College of Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University; can join the "China Oolong Tea Industry Science and Technology Innovation Alliance" to connect with local leading industrial resources, participate in project matchmaking meetings, and integrate into its upstream and downstream industry chains.

Technology empowerment

Experts praise industrial integration and innovation

In the development of the tea industry, only innovators win. The tea event with the theme of "tea technology" not only attracted the attention of many tea lovers, but also attracted the attention of three experts including Liu Zhonghua, Li Xiande and Jiang Yongwen. At the scene, three experts delivered video speeches respectively, praising Anxi's innovative approach of taking innovation as the first driving force and empowering the tea industry with technology.

"The China Tea Science and Technology Innovation Competition is held in Anxi, which reflects the mind and pattern of the hometown of Tieguanyin who has a big mind for the country and explores the path for the whole industry." Liu Zhonghua, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, believes that the establishment of this competition will definitely drive a group of scientific and technological innovations. The agglomeration and transformation of the achievements have injected a boost of scientific and technological innovation into the sustainable development of China's tea industry, and made greater contributions to the rejuvenation of my country's "tea industry powerhouse".

"I hope that with the help of this competition platform, we can encourage and promote the integration and mutual learning of technology, industry and culture, and break out more new industrial development ideas, so as to explore the way for the transformation, quality improvement and upgrading of the tea industry in Anxi, Fujian and China. Go." Li Xiande, member of the Scientific Committee of the World Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and a researcher at the Institute of Agricultural Economics and Development of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, has long been concerned about the development of Anxi Tieguanyin tea culture and tea industry. The value and charm of Anxi Tieguanyin tea culture system.

Li Xiande believes that Anxi has more than 100 cultivated varieties of tea trees. Among the first batch of 30 varieties of tea trees approved in 1984, Anxi County accounted for 6, and it is known as "a treasure trove of excellent varieties of tea trees". How to carry forward the unique and orderly Anxi tea culture in the new era? Li Xiande said that the fundamental lies in technological innovation. The establishment of the China Tea Technology Innovation Competition is a good opportunity for the integration of emerging technology and the ancient tea industry.

"The professional quality of Anxi tea people has left a deep impression on him." Changjiang Yongwen of the China Tea Society said that more than a year ago, the National Tea Industry Standardization Summit Forum and Standardization Work Annual Conference were held in Anxi. Issues such as standardization are closely related. Now, the first China Tea Science and Technology Innovation Competition is held in Anxi again, once again showing the attitude and mind of Anxi as an important tea origin to the whole country and the world.

"Whether the success of a hundred feet can go further depends on whether the tea industry can open its mind and actively embrace the influx and transformation of new technologies." In Jiang Yongwen's view, the current technological fields such as biotechnology and 5G Internet of Things are constantly innovating and bringing forth new ones. The survival and development of traditional industries put forward higher requirements. He believes that in the near future, through this competition platform, a number of outstanding scientific and technological innovations will emerge, injecting new blood and vitality into the Chinese tea industry and standing on a higher stage.
