Agricultural science and technology innovation and the transformation of achievements are important ways for the country to guarantee food security and realize rural revitalization.At present, the transformation of scientific and technological achievements of agricultural and forestry universities is facing the risk of wasted research funds and low motivation for transformation, which is closely related to the lack of regulations on related transactions, the disconnection between scientific and technological achievements and the market demand, the lack of pilot platforms, and weak protection of intellectual property rights. It is necessary to start from the perspective of systemic and linkage research, and improve the responsibility system for disclosure of related relationships, establish a two-way feedback platform of “market research”, and form a four-dimensional integration model of “government-university-enterprise-farmer”, Strengthening the protection of intellectual property rights and other measures to improve the risk avoidance ability and effect in the whole process of transformation of scientific and technological achievements of agricultural and forestry universities.

As vital components of regional innovation ecosystems, local undergraduate institutions play a pivotal role in technology commercialization. However, existing conversion processes in these institutions face significant challenges that lead to resource wastage and hinder economic development. Through analyzing current practices, we examine policy frameworks, output metrics, and conversion efficiency, identifying key obstacles and proposing targeted solutions. The analysis reveals persistent issues including low commercialization rates, misalignment with market demands, R&D disconnection, evaluation bias, insufficient incentives, and inadequate management systems. To address these challenges, the paper proposes market-driven R&D mechanisms, restructured evaluation frameworks, enhanced incentive and error-tolerance systems, along with optimized management structures and talent development programs. These measures are designed to boost conversion efficiency and foster a virtuous cycle between technological innovation and regional economic progress.

Science and technology are the primary productive forces, and the transformation of scientific and technological achievements are a key process for turning science and technology into actual productive forces and promoting economic and social development. For a long time, Colleges and universities have had a large number of scientific and technological achievements, but the conversion rate has been relatively low. This study analyzed the current situation of the transformation of scientific and technological achievements in colleges in Ulanqab City. The main problems include a low match between university research and market demand, a weak talent team for the transformation of scientific and technological achievements, and an incomplete management system for the transformation of scientific and technological achievements. It is suggested that Colleges and universities enhance the conversion rate of scientific and technological achievements by adhering to the market demand orientation to achieve effective supply of scientific and technological achievements, building an information sharing platform to shorten the distance of the transformation of scientific and technological achievements, strengthening the professional title evaluation and appointment system to optimize the construction of scientific and technological talent teams, and establishing a multi-party collaboration system to promote the efficient transformation of scientific and technological achievements. At the same time, Colleges and universities should continuously increase investment in scientific and technological innovation, remove institutional and mechanism obstacles, and establish a fiscal investment mechanism oriented towards the industrialization of scientific and technological achievements to effectively solve the problems of difficult and low conversion rates of scientific and technological achievements, providing a reference for the efficient transformation of scientific and technological achievements in universities.
