The Intelligent Horticulture Education-Industry-Research Integrated Practice Platform of Huazhong Agricultural University (HZAU) centers on the integration of education, science and production and the fusion of virtual and real environments. It adheres to a "1 + 2 + N" teaching system, including an agricultural database, an intelligent breeding workshop and a digital orchard system, covering the whole chain of training from gene editing to intelligent production. Through a three-stage training process encompassing "basic cognition, special training and comprehensive innovation", students engage with AI visual recognition, SLAM navigation, multi-spectral LiDAR and other technologies to improve their practical skills within a virtual and real-world amalgamation. The platform adopts a "real topic practice" approach, transforms enterprise projects into teaching examples, cultivates exceptional innovative talent with both agricultural and engineering knowledge, and promotes the development of agricultural modernization.
