The average yield per mu of the three plots randomly selected in the demonstration base was 1,251.5 kilograms, setting a new world record for the single-season yield of hybrid rice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The expert group randomly selected three rice fields for mechanical harvesting, followed by water measurement, impurity removal, and weighing after threshing. The number one field yielded 1,316.5 kilograms per mu, number two yielded 1,249.4 kilograms per mu, and number three field yielded 1,188.6 kilograms per mu, with an average yield of 1,251.5 kilograms per mu for the three plots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The target of yielding 18 tons per hectare (1,200 kilograms per mu) of hybrid rice was proposed by Yuan back in 2018 and the Chengdu Branch of China National Hybrid Rice Engineering Research Center conducted related research in Dechang county in the same year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The demonstration hybrid rice base covers a total area of 110 mu, and the variety planted was \u201cgrain double superior 8022.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The rice variety was sown for dry nursery on March 20,2023, and transplanted from April 24 to May 5. Technical measures such as early sowing and sparse seeding for nursery, fixed-row spacing transplanting, soil testing and formula fertilization, scientific water management, and integrated pest and disease control were adopted in the nursery of the demonstration field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chinese scientist Yuan, widely known as the \u201cfather of hybrid rice,\u201d and his research team successfully cultivated the world\u2019s first high-yield hybrid rice strain in 1973.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the past five decades, China\u2019s self-developed hybrid rice has been promoted in an accumulative cultivated area of 9 billion mu cross the country, helping increase a total rice yield of 800 billion kilograms, according to the latest hybrid rice cultivation data was released during an international seminar held in central China\u2019s Hunan Province on Wednesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So far, dozens of countries around the globe have carried out research and trial planting of hybrid rice, while the overseas annual cultivated area of hybrid rice has reached nearly 8 million hectares in total, Xinhua News Agency reported citing Bai Lianyang, an official from the Hunan Provincial Academy of Agricultural Sciences.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BEIJING:&nbsp;Output of China\u2019s hybrid rice at a demonstration base in Dechang county of Southwest China\u2019s Sichuan Province with the technique developed by \u201cfather of hybrid rice\u201d Yuan Longping reached a record high of 1,251 kilograms per mu on Saturday.
