The research on hybrid rice in Yuan Longping has solved the problem of people's eating in China and ensured the national food security. Someone once said humorously that farmers in China depend on "two levels" to eat, one is the responsibility system in Deng Xiaoping, and the other is the hybrid rice in Yuan Longping. Since 1976, "three-line" hybrid rice has been widely popularized in China, with an average yield increase of about 20% compared with conventional rice, which has made a historic contribution to solving China's grain problem.
Yuan Longping regards "developing hybrid rice to benefit people all over the world" as his lifelong pursuit, and has made great contributions to promoting the international development of hybrid rice and promoting China's foreign exchange. From 65438 to 0980, hybrid rice, as the first patented agricultural technology exported from China, was transferred to the United States, which attracted wide attention from the international community.
Yuan Longping has trained a large number of hybrid rice research and extension talents. For more than 40 years, under his personal training, direct guidance and indirect influence, a hybrid rice technical team has been formed in his research center and the national hybrid rice technology research cooperation unit, shouldering the heavy responsibility of developing hybrid rice in depth.
Yuan Longping, 1930, was born in Beijing in September, and was born in Dean County, Jiujiang City, Jiangxi Province. He is an expert in hybrid rice breeding in China and a pioneer in hybrid rice research and development in China. He is known as "the father of hybrid rice in the world".
1953 graduated from Southwest Agricultural College, 1995 was elected as an academician of China Academy of Engineering, 1999 An asteroid discovered by Schmidt CCD Asteroid Project Team of Beijing Observatory of Chinese Academy of Sciences was named Yuan Longping Star, which won the highest national science and technology award in 2000, foreign academician of National Academy of Sciences in April 2006 and Macau University of Science and Technology in 206544.
Yuan Longping is a pioneer and leader in the field of hybrid rice research. He devoted himself to the research of hybrid rice and successfully developed the first and second phases of three-line hybrid rice, two-line hybrid rice and super hybrid rice. At the same time, Yuan Longping put forward and implemented the "Three Crops and Four High Yields Project", using the technical achievements of super hybrid rice, published 6 monographs in Chinese and English, and published more than 60 papers. From 2065438 to July 2007, he served as the chief professor of Qingdao Sea Rice College. 2065438+In September 2007, Yuan Longping announced a new achievement of removing cadmium from rice.
