About IGA The Northeast Institute of Geography and Agroecology (IGA), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS)was established in August, 2002. IGA is now located in the North region of Changchun High-Tec Development Zone, Changchun City, Jilin Province of China. IGA is one of China’s national comprehensive research institutions and training base, focusing mainly on geography, agriculture, ecology, environment sciences and technology in the Northeast Region of China. IGA is now focusing on: 1) New cropping techniques and development of key technology in cultivating major crops in Northeast China, 2) Soil animal biodiversity Carbon cycling in wetlands and its adaptation for combating global climate change, 3) Molecular techniques for the cultivation of soybeans, 4) Development of key technology for the improvement of Mollisols fertility, 5) Vegetation recovery for saline-sodic soils, and 6) Restoration and design of constructed wetlands.
