The Empirical Research On Technology Innovation Of Tea Industry In Fujian Province

Fujian province is the first big province of tea production in China; tea industryis the advantage industry in Fujian province.The current investigation and Research on the situation of technical innovation ofFujian tea industry is not much, this investigation is necessary. The general situationof Fujian tea industry：In2012the Fujian province tea garden area of213000hectares;The yield and output value of tea respectively reach321000tons and14000000000yuan; Tea industry output value of about40000000000yuan; ranks the top in China.The famous tea output reached130000tons. The total output value reached8500000000yuan. The production and marketing situation of Fujian Minnan oolongtea remained stable，both production and marketing to thrive in Minbei oolong tea.White tea market demand increased. The price and quantity increased. The high gradeblack tea consumption starts to atrophy. The Processing capacity of high grade blacktea reduced. There has been a fall in the price of black tea. Labor and material costsare rising.Investigation of the current situation of technological innovation of Fujian teaindustry; On tea germless resources and breeding (including biotechnology), teacultivation, plant protection, ecological protection and agriculture (including farming,farm machinery), tea processing machinery and equipment (including continuous,automated production line), the control of tea quality safety, quality standards, testingand analysis and management, biochemistry, tea health function and mechanismresearch and technology innovation carried out investigation and summary. Tounderstand the situation of the tea industry technology innovation mechanism inFujian, to2012, Fujian province has a total of six colleges have tea discipline, oneProvincial Research Institute, and seven research center of enterprise engineering technology. The investigation of the science and technology innovation investmentfunds in recent years,R&D on an annual budget of about800000000yuan, accountingfor5.7. Fujian province from2008to2012,1836papers were published, with anaverage annual growth rate of3.72%, the tea industry related filed974patentapplications, accounting for7.36%of the national total, authorized971patents,including48invention patents, utility model patents and625invention patentsaccounted for only7.15%. According to the survey data, using data envelopmentanalysis,2008-2012industry technology Fujian tea progress rate maintained asustained growth. Analysis of the existing problems of technical innovation of Fujiantea industry, tea industry exists in primary processing technology innovationinvestment is insufficient, tea deep processing industry technology innovationinvestment, insufficient, lack of tea industry biotechnology innovation andtechnological innovation to promote health investment effects but the technical levelis not high. Put forward a prediction and Countermeasures of developing direction ofthe technical innovation of tea industry in Fujian: strengthening Fujian province teaprimary processing technology and equipment research, we need to speed up the teadeep processing industry in technological innovation, tea biotechnology and healthresearch has increased steadily, the project and set up large platform, increase the highlevel of innovation capability building.
