Abstract: Talent is the key for the improvement of independent innovation capability and an important driving force  for agricultural high-quality development. Based on the data of agricultural  research talents in China, using spatial statistics and local autocorrelation analysis methods, this paper explored their spatial distribution and convergence, and built a regression model on the basis to test the impact of spatial distribution of agricultural  research talents on agricultural high-quality development, and explored the influence path. The results showed as follows: ① the spatial distribution of agricultural  research talents in China showed a relatively unbalanced and typical characteristic  with a pattern of dense in the east and sparse in the northwest. Beijing, Shandong and Guangdong were high-level clusters of agricultural  research talents. ② The distribution of agricultural  research talents showed a certain spatial autocorrelation. The cold spots of agricultural  research talents were concentrated in western regions such as Gansu and Qinghai, without obvious hot spots. In terms of academic qualifications, the hot spots for doctoral talents included Shanghai, Jiangsu, Beijing, and Tianjin, while the cold spots were mainly concentrated in the western region; the hot spots for masters talents included Jiangsu, Shanghai and Anhui, and the cold spots were concentrated in the western region; and undergraduate agricultural research talents had not shown obvious changes in cold and hot spots. ③ The agglomeration of all agricultural  research talents, doctor talents and master talents didnt show a trend of backward regions catching up with leading regions, but undergraduate agricultural  research talents had a trend of backward regions catching up with leading regions. ④ Agricultural research talents had a significant promotion  on the high-quality development of agriculture in the region, and this promotion effect was realized based on the path that the spatial distribution of agricultural research talents drives the local technological progress level. Above results provided  references for training talents and introducing, which had important practical significance for promoting the high-quality development of agriculture.
