Of course, as the new "90s King of Stalks"

Yuan Lao also has many "cute" buzzwords

For example, in a CCTV interview

Talking about the "head-scratching" problem of supervising doctoral students

"Post-90s senior handsome guy" and so on

The animated picture is taken from CCTV's "Face to Face"

And let netizens sincerely "chase stars"

Or is it because Yuan Longping really

Made great contributions to the country and the people

Yuan Longping's team's scientific research results have repeatedly set records

In October 2020, the average yield of salt-tolerant rice planted in cooperation with Yuan Longping's "Seawater Rice" team and the Jiangsu Provincial Agricultural Technology Extension Station reached 802.9 kilograms per mu, setting a new record for high yield of rice in saline-alkali land.

Industry experts believe that taking hybrid "sea rice" research as one of the important directions of future hybrid rice research can not only increase the hybrid rice planting area in my country, but also solve the problem of rice harvest failure caused by seawater intrusion in countries such as Vietnam and Bangladesh.

For China, its value is even greater. my country has more than 1 billion mu of saline-alkali land, of which nearly 200 million mu can be used to grow rice. If the research on "sea rice" is successful, at least 100 million mu of arable land can be added, which can feed an additional 100 million people.

On July 13, 2020, the early rice planted in Hengnan County, Hunan Province, Zhu Liangyou 168, was tested and accepted, and the average yield per mu of early rice was 619.06 kg. On November 2, 2020, the field yield test results of the third-generation hybrid rice "Sanyou No. 1" high-yield demonstration field in Hengnan County, Hunan Province were released by Yuan Longping's team, and the average yield per mu reached 911.7 kg. This means that the average yield per mu of the third-generation hybrid rice early and late double-season rice has exceeded 1,500 kg (3,000 jin), reaching 1,530.76 kg.

"Two trump cards" can feed more than 100 million people

Yuan Longping once said: "We now have two trump cards. One trump card is Super Excellent Thousand (the fifth-generation super hybrid rice), and the other trump card is the third-generation hybrid rice."

Yuan Longping said he now has two goals: one is to develop these two trump cards to 100 million mu, which can increase production by 10 billion kilograms, based on a minimum increase of 100 kilograms per mu. The other goal is to develop "sea rice" to 100 million mu, which can increase grain production by 300 kilograms per mu.

What does that mean? "10 billion kilograms of grain can feed an additional 40 million people, which is equivalent to the population of Shanxi Province. 30 billion kilograms is the total annual grain output of Hunan Province, which can feed an additional 100 million people..."

New Year is approaching

Let's wish Grandpa Yuan Longping

Your wishes will come true in the Year of the Ox!
