Exploration on the Construction of Smart Agriculture Program Clusters in Agricultural Universities

Abstract

The construction of smart agriculture program clusters is a new path for the major construction of agricultural universities. In the background of new era, responding to industrial demands, developing a smart agriculture cluster which is centered by smart agriculture, facilitates innovation-driven development, promotes industrial upgrading and advances the high quality development of agricultural colleges. Agricultural universities should focus on the disciplinary interconnections among industrial chains, innovation chains and majors, and enhance the construction quality of smart agriculture program clusters by basing on disciplines, innovating organizational mechanisms, and sharing curriculum resources and other measures. High quality applied talents capable of adapting to the new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation can be cultivated.
