Longyang Village, Gubeikou Town, Miyun County, Beijing, is located in the west of Gubeikou Town, more than 130 kilometers away from the urban area. Chen Chunxiu has been shuttling back and forth between these 130 kilometers for more than four months. Through full research in the early stage, Chen Chunxiu formulated a detailed work plan to carry out services from the aspects of variety renewal, field management, and new technology promotion, thus increasing the output of chili peppers in the village facilities by more than 30%.

Chen Chunxiu is one of the 100 experts of Beijing Academy of Agricultural and Forestry Sciences in the docking project of 100 bases ("double hundred Project"). As an important measure of science and technology to benefit farmers, the "double hundred Project" has promoted nearly 200 safety, ecological, high-yield, high-efficiency, and water-saving production technologies in only two years, achieving an average annual increase of more than 10% of the docking base, and increasing revenue and saving expenditure reached 50 million yuan.

"We should be guided by meeting the needs of innovation and strengthen scientific and technological support services." Gao Hua, secretary of the party committee of the Beijing Academy of Agricultural and Forestry Sciences, said that benefiting farmers by science and technology not only requires us to improve the level of scientific and technological services, making scientific and technological services professional, networked, and large-scale, but also requires us to rely on the power of science and technology to change low-end and backward traditional industries, develop and build a green, circular, low-carbon, and efficient modern agricultural industrial system, so as to raise the level of agricultural modernization and enable the broad masses of farmers to increase their income and become rich.

Since the formal implementation of the action plan of science and technology to benefit farmers in 2012, the Beijing Academy of Agricultural Sciences has taken the "1-3" model as the core, by building a scientific and technological service platform for agriculture, rural areas and farmers, establishing an efficient mechanism, building a professional service team and implementing projects to benefit farmers, the influence and driving force of the Beijing Academy of Agricultural Sciences have been further enhanced.
