Study On The Development Of Agricultural Scientific Data Sharing In China

Agricultural scientific data give a strong support to the innovation of agricultural science and technology, but the lower use efficiency and resources wasting have become prominent restraints for the innovation of agricultural science and technology in China. Therefore, it is important to establish the system of agricultural scientific data sharing and realize networking sharing with the application of modern IT for expediting the development of agricultural science and technology.This paper applied related theories, such as information management, information economics and strategic management, and methodology of information analysis, systematic analysis and demonstration to study the development of agricultural scientific data sharing in China. The theoretical issues related to agricultural scientific data sharing were systemically analyzed, including the concept, characteristic and classification of agricultural scientific data, as well as the connotation and feature of data sharing. At the same time, this paper also discussed the development trends of scientific data sharing at international level and the situation and problems of agricultural scientific data sharing in China. Then the strategic objectives and counter measurements were put forward by combining with the demand analysis of data sharing. At last, a case study was conducted to provide support for the strategy of agricultural scientific data sharing.In the field of agricultural scientific data sharing, it was only research on the strategy of agricultural scientific data sharing with systematic analysis. The innovative studies were as follows:1. To systematically analyze sharing demand of agricultural scientific data. The emphasis focused on the analysis of demand characteristic of various users and demand changes. The users are divided seven classes and five kinds of demand need to be meet. Information networking decides the ways in which the users demand is meet and data is used, so there is six changes including the new conception for sharing, multiple demands for data type and data carrier, decentralized and uneven demand, the integration of sharing service function, individuation of service mode and the integration of sharing service mode.2. To systematically analyze the structure and function of sharing system of agricultural scientific data. The structure of sharing system includes scientific data system, technology and network system, standard and policy system, institutional system. The institutional structure of sharing system may be seen as three levels. The functions of system are developing and utilization of data resources, preservation and collocation of data resources, collection and dissemination of agricultural data and ensuring application for sharing. After this, detailed analysis of the construction of sharing system is conducted, including four aspects of construction and integration of resource system, construction of institutional system, construction of policy support system and operation mechanism, research, development and integration of sharing technology system.3. To put forward the strategy of agricultural scientific data sharing in China. The strategic goal is to realize digitalization, networking, standardization, integration and sharing service. And the counter measurements were advanced, including changing conception, government dominant, policy and legislation, institution and budget safeguard, and strengthening construction of information infrastructure, data quality control, intellectual property right protection, talent construction and international exchanges. This study also based on the case study of "the construction of national data center for agricultural sciences" so as to summarize experiences and present some suggestions.Regarding the benefit evaluation of sharing system, it is expected to further study in later time.
