Recently, we received information that the vertical research projects has been approved from the National Natural Science Foundation of China, the Jiangsu Provincial Department of Science and Technology, the Jiangsu Academy of Agricultural Sciences and Technology and the Jiangsu Academy of Agricultural Sciences. With the leadership of the institute and the joint efforts of all scientific researchers, at the end of August, our institute has received 11 funding projects of various types this year. That includes 3 general projects and 1 youth project from National Natural Science Foundation of China, 1 general project and 1 youth project from Natural Science Foundation of Jiangsu Province of China, 1 second-class project and 1 third-class project from Jiangsu Provincial Agricultural Science and Technology Independent Innovation Fund Project, 2 general project from China Postdoctoral Science Foundation, 1 project from key research and development program of ZhenJiang city (modern agriculture) .

       Our faculty has always attached great importance of the application of various scientific research projects. Before the application in 2021, Our faculty had begun to mobilize extensively, and had invited many well-known experts to give a series of special lectures on how to write bids, application requirements, application skills and so on. By adopting a series of measures, the quality of the declaration forms had been greatly improved.

       I would like to express the warm congratulations to the project leaders and the groups of the projects! I hope that the majority of the researchers in our faculty would learn from them and strive for the institute research work to get a new level.
