Yield increase puzzle
With the global and frequent change of climate,
agriculture production often faces water
shortage , and drought is becoming one of the
main limiting factors.
Rice, the main food in China , yield per unit area
remains unchanged for the past > 10 years.

Recent years in China, frequent drought or flooding
caused huge loss of food production.
Environmental pollution
Flood irrigation of paddy field rice, esp. with increased
application of fertilizers and other chemicals for increased
yield, often causes eutrophication.

Summary


WDR showed the features of paddy rice and drought tolerance. Drip
irrigation is feasible for rice cultivation, especially when planting
drought-resistant water-saving rice varieties.



Even without optimization of fertilization, rice yield under drip
irrigation was equivalent that achieved under ordinary paddy field
condition, while agricultural water consumption is greatly reduced,
and also significantly reduced greenhouse gas emissions, specifically
the emission of methane gas.



Drip irrigation combined with water-saving and drought resistant
rice reflects the features of high-yield, efficient and friendly to
environment.
Thank you
very much!

  • 7. Environmental pollution Flood irrigation of paddy field rice, esp. with increased application of fertilizers and other chemicals for increased yield, often causes eutrophication.
  • 8. Global Methane Sources and Emissions Breeding water Breeding water saving and saving and drought drought resistant rice resistant rice varieties. varieties.
  • 9. What is WDR  No compromising yield ability compared with paddy field variety.  Similar drought resistance to upland rice.  Environmentally friendly

  • 30. Summary  WDR showed the features of paddy rice and drought tolerance. Drip irrigation is feasible for rice cultivation, especially when planting drought-resistant water-saving rice varieties.  Even without optimization of fertilization, rice yield under drip irrigation was equivalent that achieved under ordinary paddy field condition, while agricultural water consumption is greatly reduced, and also significantly reduced greenhouse gas emissions, specifically the emission of methane gas.  Drip irrigation combined with water-saving and drought resistant rice reflects the features of high-yield, efficient and friendly to environment.

  1. {"5":"Of course, we had developed super rice as early as in 1995, as showed hear, yield ability once got to >11tons per hectare, however, it is hard to achieve this super high yield level in large scale. Why? Limited irrigation water and soil fertility. \n","11":"We have established corresponding breeding technique and approaches. \n","6":"Such kind of situation proposed the need for breeding water saving and drought resistant rice varieties. \n","7":"On the other hand, rice production is also a main reason for environmental pollution. Such as eutrophication,is becoming a serious social problem. \n","8":"Green house emission, becoming a environmental concern. Rice farming produces a big part of methane gas discharge, although lacks exact data. Proposed the need again.\n","9":"It is kind of rice type, with three distinct features. \n","4":"We did not see obvious increase in the unit area yield in the past >10 years, which may be taken as a potential threat to China’s food security. \n"}
