contribution
Yuan Longping, an academician of China Academy of Engineering, has been devoted to the research of hybrid rice since 1960s. After 12 years' efforts, he successfully cultivated "three-line hybrid rice". During the period from 1976 to 1987, the planting area of hybrid rice he cultivated reached 1 1 100 million mu, increasing the rice yield 1 100 million Jin. From 65438 to 0979, hybrid rice was transferred to the United States as the first agricultural technology patent in China.
Today, hybrid rice developed in Yuan Longping is widely planted in farmland in the north and south of China. The large-scale popularization and application of hybrid rice has played an important role in increasing grain production in China.
