Development trend of agricultural machinery patent technology in hilly and mountainous areas of China
Based on incoPat patent database,the current status of agricultural machinery technology in hilly and mountainous areas in China was analyzed from the perspective of patents,such as outcome output,technical topic,type of applicant,achievement transformation,etc.The results show that after nearly 30 years of slow development,China's agricultural machinery patent technology in hilly and mountainous areas enteres a period of rapid growth in 2015,and the average annual number of applica-tions exceeds 700 in the past five years.Compared with foreign countries which pay attention to the in-telligent and refined research of agricultural machinery,China pays more attention to the research of small machinery and horticultural machinery suitable for mountain areas,and gradually attaches impor-tance to the exploration of intelligent agricultural machinery and micro-terrain transformation in recent years.Universities are the main innovator in this field,and their patent applications account for 32.43%.In terms of research and development mode,cooperative research mode accounts for 7.17%,of which enterprise participation accounts for only 1.10%.Achievements conversion rate is low,the pa-tent assignment rate is 4.78%,the patent licensing rate is 0.58%,and the patent pledge rate is 0.54%.According to the current technological development status,the suggestions are put forward from three aspects:deepening the innovation mode of"government,enterprise and college",focusing on re-search and development in the field of intelligent agricultural machinery,and jointly promoting the transformation of patented technology at both ends of"front+end".
