Yuan Longping's dream of enjoying the cool under the rice has come true: the trial planting of "giant rice" has been successful

Grandpa Yuan Longping's dream of enjoying the cool under the rice has come true. Grandpa Yuan Longping said in an interview, "I had a dream that my rice grew taller than sorghum and the ears were longer than brooms. My colleagues and I sat under the rice ears to enjoy the cool..."

Recently, the trial planting of 2-meter "giant rice" in Dazu District, Chongqing was successful. The height is twice that of conventional rice, and the estimated yield per mu can reach 1,500-1,600 kilograms. The "giant rice" has thick and upright rice stalks.

It is understood that this batch of "giant rice" is twice as tall as conventional rice, with an average of 2 meters per rice plant. Not only does the "giant rice" have tall and strong stalks, it is also resistant to flooding and salinity, and can provide sufficient nutrients for the plants, providing the best habitat for aquatic animals and mammals to shade and avoid the heat. At the same time, the rice fields where the "giant rice" is located can also store deeper water, which is conducive to the development of the "rice-fish symbiosis" project and help farmers increase production and income.

Grandpa Yuan Longping's dream of enjoying the cool under the rice has finally come true. Grandpa, this prosperous era is just as you wish. But I really want you to see it with your own eyes, go to the field and touch the rice that is taller than you, and bring a small stool to sit under the rice to enjoy the cool.

Starting next year, this variety of rice will be widely promoted in Dazu District and will participate in the rice-fish symbiosis project. Grandpa Yuan Longping's dream has come true. We can enjoy the cool under the rice. Can you see it in the sky?

Conclusion:

China's agriculture, from the self-sufficiency of small-scale peasant economy to the land reform where people truly owned their own land, to today's technological, modern, and large-scale agricultural development, is inseparable from countless scientists who are worthy of our praise and respect. Allow us to say "thank you!"

Grandpa Yuan Longping: "I have two dreams, one is to enjoy the shade under the rice plants, the other is to cover the whole world with hybrid rice." I will always miss you!
