What this shows Shandong's Innovation Score is 40.1/100 (top 36% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Shandong?

Each dot is one of Shandong’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Shandong’s own 7.8 claims/patent is at or below the 11.5 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Shandong's grants concentrate

Shandong Academy OF Agricultural Machinery Sciences is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 83.3% of grants classified under A01C (PLANTING; SOWING; Fertilising). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2021. By volume, Shandong sits between Seton Healthcare Family and Shandong Zhonghai Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd.

Shandong's three-year grant acceleration

Shandong Academy OF Agricultural Machinery Sciences shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
