Abstract: Initial payoffs have been achieved in the development and construction of featured agriculture in Xinjiang, which has displayed a significant role in China. For example, compared with the cotton yield in other areas, Xinjiang’s cotton growth and production, whether on the scale of production or in terms of production efficiency, show relatively strong comparative advantage and its dominant position can not be replaced. The grain production (wheat and corn) in Xinjiang also has relative advantage in production efficiency over other provinces in China. Xinjiang’s featured fruits such as Hami cantaloupe, grape, pear, walnut and apricot have extremely strong production scale and efficiency and the comprehensive comparative advantage demonstrates prominent position. In the course of carrying out “the Belt and Road” initiative, Xijiang has become the core area. Agriculture is the dominant industry in Xinjiang and Xinjiang Agricultural Sciences is an important platform for domestic and foreign science and technology information communication. Taking Xinjiang Agricultural Sciences as a case, the discipline and organization distribution of all the papers published in this journal were gone through statistics and analysis. It indicated that this journal played an important window role in promoting the scientific and technological achievements to open to the west.

Key words: "the Belt and Road"
