The Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences (short CAAS, Chinese: 中国农业科学院) is the Chinese national agricultural scientific research organization.

It was established in 1957 in Beijing and oversees 45 institutes. Thirty-six are direct affiliates, nine institutes are co-hosted together with local governments or universities. It has more than 5,000 professional employees.[1][2]

The Academy building contains offices of several Chinese policy institutions such as the China Association for the Promotion of International Agricultural Cooperation (CAPIAC, 中国农业国际合作促进会) established in 1998.[3][4] One of CAPIAC's branches is the International Cooperation Committee for Animal Welfare (ICCAW), established in 2011.[5] In 2017, ICCAW hosted a farm animal welfare conference together with UN Food and Agriculture Organization, RSPCA, Compassion in World Farming, the U.S. Meat Export Federation and the U.S. National Pork Board.[6]

In 2023, CAAS and Tencent announced a partnership to establish a Digital Seed Bank at the Tencent Science and Technology Museum.[7] The Digital Seed Bank includes digital displays of germplasm resources preserved at the National Crop Genebank of China, along with seed-storage and breeding technologies.[7]
