Northwest Agricultural University is 985 and 2 1 1. Northwest Agricultural University generally refers to Northwest A&F University, which is located in Yangling Demonstration Zone, Shaanxi Province. It is a national key university directly under the Ministry of Education of People's Republic of China (PRC), a vice-ministerial university directly under the central government, a world-class university construction university, and a national "985 Project" and "21/Project" key construction university.

As we all know, the 985 project and the 2 1 1 project of higher education in China are not carried out at the same time. The 985 project started several years later than the 2 1 1 project. Moreover, because there are more than 65,438+000 universities in 265,438+065,438+0 and only 39 universities in 985, generally speaking, only 265,438+065,438+0 can be selected for the 985 project. This Northwest A&F University is very unusual. It is the only university in China that was selected for 2 1 1 project after being selected in 985. In fact, from this point, we can see that the reason why Northwest A&F University was selected as "985" may be largely due to the care of policies. However, agriculture is the fundamental cause of our country, and the policy of taking care of Northwest A&F University is understandable.

Many areas in western China are extremely dry, and farmers in the west play an important role in desertification control and ecological restoration. Seeds such as "Bima 1", "Xiaoyan 6", "Shan Nong 7859", "Qinguan" apple and "Bai Qin" Chinese cabbage have brought great vitality to the west!
