"The rice we sowed here is the fifth-generation, double cropping super rice. The yield was surveyed and the breed checked and accepted only two years ago in Mei Zhou. The average yields of dry rice per mu of late and early rice are 705.68 kg and 832.1 kg respectively, which is equivalent to an annual yield of 1537.78 kg per mu… the rice we have chosen here is upland rice, also from a newest breed. The survey of its yield was carried out last year when the breed was accepted; the yield per mu has exceeded 900 kg."
In the agriculture section of the base, six team members of the goodwill mission were touring around the experimental rice plot. Qiu Guan and Professor Qin escorted them while explaining various facts patiently.
"What's your estimated yield of these plots?" an official in charge suddenly asked after the introduction.
