CHINARecord Rice YieldA team led by Yuan Longping, known in China as the ＂father of hybrid rice,＂ set a record for hybrid rice production with an aver- age yield of 988.1 kg per mu （0,0667 hectares）. Hybrid rice is any genealogy of rice that has been created through crossbreeding be- tween different types of rice. Experts from the China National Rice Research Institute, Wuhan University and the Fujian Academy of Agricultural Sciences confirmed the new record. The three organi- zations combined efforts to harvest three lots from a farm of 101.2 mu （6.75 hectares） in Niuxing Village, Longhui County in central China＇s Hunan Province. Yuan, 83, an academician with the Chinese Academy of Engineering, developed the first variety of hybrid rice to be grown in China in 1974.
