Study On Present Situation, Problems & Countermeasure Of Agricultural Informationization In China

Agriculture is the foundation of the national economy. In our country, the position of agriculture is particularly important. It is a great task of the comprehensive well-off society construction to plan as a whole about the economic development of the urban and rural areas, to build modern agriculture, to develop rural economy and to increase peasant's income. The 16th National Congress of Communist Party of China points out that the informationization is the inevitable choice of our country to accelerate realizing industrialization and modernization. And sees "advancing the informationization in a more cost-effective manner" as the main task of economic construction and reform in the first 20 years of 21st century, proposes taking the new industrialized road of "using the informationization to drive the industrialization". The No.1 file of the central government in 2005 puts emphasis on requiring "strengthen agricultural information construction" clearly for the first time in the 14th section the 5th item. The No.1 file of the central government in 2006 points out "advance the agricultural informationization construction actively, fully utilize and combine the agricultural information resources involves, strengthen information service such as the broadcast and television telecommunications facing countryside, do a good job of "gold agriculture" project and the agricultural integrated information service platform construction project in "accelerating the construction of rural infrastructure" again in the 16th section the 4th item. And it uses the whole third item of the No.1 file of the central government to emphasize the agriculture informationization. Under such a background, how to accelerate the construction of the agricultural informationization, and then drive agricultural modernization through the agricultural informationization, have undoubtedly already become a strategic problem in the economic construction and social development at present.This article firstly proceeds with basic conception that the agricultural informationization involves,has described the connotation and the significance of the agricultural development and modernization of the agricultural informationization. Secondly it measures the level of the agriculture informationization, and it analyses present situation of agricultural informationization in China with Econometrics method. Based on comparison of domestic and international method of measuring the informationization level, finally the author confirms to use Porat's information economy measuring method to measure the level of our country's agricultural informationization. It has mainly used Porat's method to confirm the first information department and the second information department of agriculture and the output value calculation of the two information department, and has obtained the preliminary data of the level of the agricultural informationization from 2000 to 2004 of our country. And then also has used the regression analysis method to analyze the relation between four kinds of information factors and agricultural output value chosen, can find out that the service (technology popularization) of the farming, forestry, animal husbandry and fishery is the most influential, of cause , the science and technology, education, etc. are playing an important role too. Finally mainly analysis the chief problem existing in the process of the agricultural informationization construction: the understanding deviation exists in the agricultural informationization, the insufficient leading function government makes in the agricultural informationization construction, the shortage of infrastructure construction in the agricultural informationization, the low level of agricultural information resources construction, the shortage of agricultural informationization talents, the low service subject quality of the agricultural informationization, the imperfect service system of the agricultural informationization, the much too weak construction of laws and regulations of the agricultural informationization. And it has proposed some Countermeasures and suggestions in view of the above: strengthen the propaganda strength to the agricultural information work, improve the understanding level of the agricultural informationization construction, give full play to government leading role in advancing the agricultural informationization construction, strengthen the infrastructure construction of the agricultural informationization, strengthen agricultural information resources construction, give play to the role of agricultural information resources fully, accelerate to train and introduce talent of the agricultural informationization construction, improve the rural message service system, increase the peasant's income, improve the peasant's quality, strengthen the peasant's information consciousness, enable the information service be fulfilled, accelerate the combination of science and technology, education and popularization,etc.
