Abstract:

Based on the panel data of 2006-2014, the paper constructs an evaluation indicator system of "technology-knowledge" innovation development of agricultural science and technology, analyzes the development level of technology innovation and knowledge innovation, and describes the timing and spatial distribution characteristics of the system coupling coordination development of 4 regional plates, 31 provincial units and 334 prefectures in China by using the coupled coordination degree model. The results show that the overall system efficiency of agricultural science and technology innovation is on the rise, but the gap between "technology -knowledge" is gradually expanding and the interaction is unstable; obvious regional differences exist in the coupling and coordination relationship, the eastern, central, western and northeastern regions respectively present synergistic, running-in, equally-matched and low-level characteristics, and the gap of coordination development between regions may be further expanded. This research will help deepen the understanding of the development trend of China's agricultural science and technology innovation, and provide basic data and decision-making basis for the agricultural science and technology management departments.

Key words: agricultural science and technology, technology innovation, knowledge innovation, coupling coordination, spatial pattern
