Abstract: Combining with data of main sci-tech output types in crop science, i. e. , papers, invention patents, the national examination crop varieties and the rights of new plant varieties, based on the result of artificial classification of subjects, and using multiple indicators for quantitative analysis, we compared and analyzed the sci-tech outputs and competitiveness of China's 8 major agricultural institutions' and universities in crop science between 2008 and 2012 from different angles, which aimed at providing reference data for the scientific researchers and decision makers. The result showed that Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences owned competitive strengths while comparing a number of indicators in different areas. Chinese Academy of Sciences demonstrated promising strengths in the indicators of high-level SCI paper and the patent, especially prominent in the field of medicinal crops. In addition, the performances of China Agricultural University in corn field, Nanjing Agricultural University in soybean and cotton fields, and Huazhong Agricultural University in rape field are also worthy of attentions.
