Abstract: Technology readiness levels (TRL) are international widely used to quantify the degree of quantitative evaluation on major scientific technological research and engineering projects. TRL can accurately evaluate the development of technology, improve the scientific decision-making, reduce the risk of new technology application, and play an important role in the industrialization of major industrial developed countries in Europe and the North America. China began to pay attention to the research and application on TRL in the beginning of 21th century and made remarkable achievements. However, the study was rarely used in agriculture and life sciences. In order to introduce this advanced technology evaluation method and management tool into the process of agricultural science and technology innovation as soon as possible, this paper summarized the application status of technology readiness levels in domestic and foreign industry, discussed the necessity for bringing TRL into agricultural science and technology innovation system, and put forward the policy suggestions on the application of TRL on agricultural science and technology innovation process.
