What the hell is sea rice
Is it the rice that grows in the sea
A hundred million acres and 80 million more
Is it that good

The sea rice is by no means a literally understood “paddy growing in the sea”, but rather a common term for saline-resistant rice, which can grow on beaches and saline lands. Traditional rice, on the other hand, is not normally grown on arable land containing some salt and alkaline components。
Through hybrid breeding techniques and conventional breeding methods, combined with molecular marker assistive choices, multigens such as salt-resistant, alkali-resistant, disease-resistant, high-quality and high-yielding, breeding specialists select new types of saline-resistant rice that can be grown extensively along beaches, around inland salinous lands and salty lakes, while reducing pressure on cultivated land, increasing food production while also ensuring to some extent food security in the country。
In 2014, the yuanlongping team participated in the improvement of rice86 and set up the qingdao rice research and development centre, which was piloted in simple desalination-treated water-irrigated rice fields and produced milestones。
In 2016, pilot acre production of sea rice exceeded 500 kg。
In october 2017, the maximum acre production was measured at 621 kg。
At present, the country's “water rice” varieties are still in the research and development stage, and research and observation are still needed before they can be officially replicated. According to yuan longping, a member of the chinese engineering college, if the area under sea rice cultivation were to be expanded to 100 million acres, it would be possible to produce an additional 30 billion kg per year at a minimum production rate (300 kg) and an additional 80 million people, equivalent to the total annual food production in a hunan province。

The harvest of sea rice was also celebrated last year, and half a year later, it was about to leave qingdao and planted in several provinces in the south-east and north-west of the country. Yesterday, the qingdao rice research and development centre held sea-water rice injections simultaneously at five pilot bases in qingdao city yang, heilongjiang dynasty, shaanxi sud-wan mud bay, xinjiang kashi and zhejiang win counties。
Yesterday's inaugural launch of the qingdao rice pittling and the china-china plan for the development of the qingdao river was held at a national sealine salin rice improvement demonstration base in the yangtze area of qingdao city。

The precious sea-water rice seed yc 0045

Yuan's first to deliver the seedlings to all the guests involved in the plan
Before the plug-in, yuan passed on the seedlings to the guests who were involved in the plan. These seedlings, the highest production of yc0045 in the white mud of qingdao last year, have reached 620. 95 kg of acre under irrigation conditions with a salinity of 6 per 1,000. This is not only a passing of sea-water rice seedlings, but also a passing of the spirit of the pedagogue. This green water seedling is a heavy burden。


A "seed" harvest dream
It is understood that the yuen yongping team's sea rice project, which consists of a seed of sea-water rice, will grow hundreds of billions of graded industries in the country, along the road of “china's agricultural production” and achieve “china's core, chinese technology, chinese food, chinese dream”。
