Postdoctoral researcher conducts fieldwork under the summer heat at agricultural experimental station in north China

Photo taken on June 8, 2025, shows a postdoctoral researcher working in a wheat field at the China Agricultural University Jize Experimental Station, Jize County, Handan City, north China's Hebei Province. The experimental station in Jize County has long integrated production and education by bringing research and teaching directly into the fields. Covering thousands of acres, this test farm has trained numerous undergraduates, postgraduates, and postdoctoral researchers, and developed high-quality wheat varieties such as Nongda 753, Nongda 179, and Nongda 171. These varieties have been widely planted in Hebei Province and the greater Huang-Huai-Hai region, laying a solid foundation for China's food security. (Jin Shuhuai / Guangming Picture)
