Chinanews client, Beijing, November 2 (Reporter Xie Yiguan) On November 2, the third-generation hybrid rice Sanyou No. 1 late rice test results were released in the Hengnan double-cropping late rice experimental demonstration base. The average yield per mu reached 911.7 kg, far exceeding the previous forecast of 881 kg.

break the record!

The yield per mu of double-cropping rice exceeded 3000 jin

  In July this year, the early rice high-yield research field in Hengnan Base once measured the average yield of early rice to be 619.06 kg per mu. The results of the late rice yield test were released, which means that the average yield per mu of the third-generation hybrid rice early and late double-cropping rice exceeded 1500 kg, reaching 1530.76 Kilogram, once again set the original record.

Prior to this, Yuan Longping’s team repeatedly broke the world records of 700, 800, 1,000, and 1,149 kilograms per unit of super rice.

  After hearing this result, Yuan Longping even said more than exciting!

Netizens left a message "as happy as a child".

  In fact, it is of great significance for the double-cropping rice yield to exceed 3000 jin per mu.

According to Yuan Lao's words, the success of the production test means that our third-generation hybrid rice has made a new breakthrough. The average yield per mu is 10%-20% higher than the existing high-yield hybrid rice, which means an increase of more than 100 kg.

"There are 250 million mu of hybrid rice in the country, and an increase of 100 kilograms per mu can increase the grain output of Hunan Province by half."

  Faced with the new record of double-season rice yield per mu, netizens also said, "Salute to the great old Yuan team!" "This is the person worthy of our respect!" Some netizens said, "There is another reason to eat more tonight. Bowl of rice."

On October 22, 2019, Yuan Longping led the guests to observe in the experimental field of the National Hybrid Rice Engineering Technology Research Center.

The Chinese people's rice bowls are getting stronger!

  This time, the yield per mu has reached a new level, which also means that the rice bowls of 1.4 billion Chinese people have become stronger.

This year, affected by the new crown pneumonia epidemic, southern floods, northeast typhoons, and grass moths, many people are worried about national food security and fear that there will be a "food shortage" again.

  However, data from the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs show that this year's summer grain and early rice have been harvested, increasing the output by 2.42 billion jin and 2.06 billion jin respectively over last year. The harvest of autumn grain is now coming to an end and a bumper harvest is a foregone conclusion.

Grain production is expected to stabilize at more than 1.3 trillion catties for six consecutive years.

  In food security the world, "land" is the foundation and "technology" is the pillar.

The increase in grain production capacity has benefited from the accelerated implementation of the strategy of "having grain in the ground and storing grain in technology".

  In recent years, the state has guided the majority of agricultural science and technology workers to carry out joint research and experiment demonstrations, and promote agricultural technology into villages and households.

High-efficiency breeding technology systems such as super rice, dwarf sterile wheat, and hybrid corn have been established to basically achieve full coverage of improved varieties of major food crops.

  The "Sanyou No. 1" developed by Yuan Lao's team this time has larger ears than ordinary rice, with an average of about 400 grains per ear, and each is more plump. Under the microscope, "Sanyou No. 1" is wider and "fat". .

  In addition, on October 14, the salt-tolerant rice planted jointly by Yuan Longping’s “sea rice” team and Jiangsu Agricultural Technology Extension Station was tested in the Fangling Reclamation Area of ​​Rudong, Jiangsu Province. Yuan Longping’s “Super Youqian” was salt-tolerant. The average rice yield per mu reached 802.9 kg, which also set a new record for high yield of rice in saline-alkali land.

  At present, the contribution rate of my country's agricultural science and technology progress has reached 59.2%.

"Since 2004, my country's grain has achieved the historic '16 Lianfeng', total output increased by 54%, and the contribution of the increase in unit yield to total output growth reached 66%." said Liao Xiyuan, director of the Science and Technology Education Department of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs.

  The double-cropping rice yield reached over 3000 catties this time, which will also bring new possibilities to China's grain production.

Yuan Longping said, "The next goal is to promote Hengnan's experience in rice-producing areas across the country and make new contributions to China's food security!" (End)
