Key topics for research on the influence of global

　　　　　climate change on agricuture

The key top priority area for research include global climate change interacting with the Agro-ecological system changes, simulation of the climate change and its impact on agricultural production of emission and absorption of green house gases of the Agro-ecological system and feedback indication on Agro-climate changes.

The Agro Environmend Protection Institute in Tianjin City does research on the methane emission and control measures in netted plots and farm fields . The results demonstrated the potential of improved farming measures for the reduction of emissions , for example , through application of emissions , for example , through application of well decomposed sediments from bio-gas digesters in replacement of the ordinary compost , and application of ammonium , sulfare and nitrate.

Measurement of pesticide resicide residue in soil and agricultural products by the Agro-Environment Protection Institute . Research work covers the effects of pesticide residues in agricultural products and standardization of the analysis of pesticide residues.
