The 19th National Corn Cultivation Academic Seminar, jointly organized by the Cultivation Professional Committee of the Chinese Crop Society, the Corn Professional Committee of the Chinese Crop Society, and the Crop Science Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and co hosted by the Gansu Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Gansu Crop Society, Longdong University, and Qingyang Agricultural Science Research Institute, was grandly held in Qingyang City, Gansu Province from August 8th to 10th, 2025.

The conference, with the theme of "Analyzing the Ways to Increase Corn Yield and Innovatively Developing Agricultural New Quality Productivity", was attended by 396 representatives from research institutes, universities, agricultural technology promotion institutions, and related enterprises in 24 provinces (autonomous regions, municipalities directly under the central government) across the country.

The teacher at the meeting showed great interest in the AZR-300 composite root growth dynamic monitoring system, and our sales engineer provided a detailed introduction to the system.

The AZR-300 adopts an integrated design of "photography and scanning", which enables arbitrary switching of photography and scanning methods in the micro root window tube, quickly and clearly obtaining overall and partial images of plant roots. Bringing great convenience to in-situ root monitoring.

The "ultra high definition camera" has a resolution of 4800dpi and can observe and record the growth dynamics of root systems (root hairs, hyphae, soil animals) as low as 10um, as well as the activity trajectories of micro animals. UV light can distinguish the viability of root systems. Suitable for studying the dynamics of root systems, including growth, development, death, lifespan, quantity dynamics, nutrient absorption, etc.

The "fast scanning technology" obtains root images with a large area and fast speed. Suitable for studying root ecology, biomass, etc.
