As one of the important food crops in China, rice plays an indispensable role in social development. In recent years, there have been endless reports on rice yields, and the high yield data of 1200 kg mu and 1300 kg mu have attracted a lot of attention and controversy. As a veteran rice farmer, through my years of experience and practice, I will share with you the truth and opinions about rice yield. I hope that through this article, more people can correctly understand rice yield, protect farmland, and improve food use efficiency.
In various reports, the frequent occurrence of rice high yield data has caused many questions and controversies. Some experts said that the data of 1,200 kg mu and 1,300 kg mu of rice yields are completely false and far from the actual rice planting yield. This high yield is not only unbelievable, but it is also likely to lead to a biased public perception of rice cultivation.
The reality of rice cultivation is that it is quite difficult to achieve a yield of more than 800 kilograms, even in a high-quality environment and planting technology. The growth process of rice is constrained by many factors, including irrigation, fertilizer application, pest control, etc., and it takes more effort and effort from farmers to achieve high yields.
The publication of high-yield data not only misleads farmers and consumers, but also poses a serious threat to food security and agricultural development. If the sham production is officially adopted, it will affect the formulation and implementation of national food policies, which in turn will affect the food supply and market stability.
As a veteran farmer in the main rice-producing areas of the south of the Yangtze River, I have rich experience and unique insights into rice cultivation. Home-grown early, medium and late rice yields have been shown to be high locally, but there is still a significant gap compared to the high yields reported.
The yield of the rice grown by my family, including early, medium, and late rice, can only reach about 780 kilograms at most, which is far lower than the high yield of 1,200 to 1,300 kilograms. Through many years of cultivation experience, I know that in order to achieve high yields, it is necessary to consider the influence of many factors such as planting technology, climate and environment, water and soil conditions.
False data on high yields poses a threat to our country's food security. Only by truly understanding and grasping the yield of rice can we better protect cultivated land resources, improve grain production efficiency, and achieve sustainable agricultural development.
In the face of controversy over high rice yields, we should keep a clear head and not be fooled by the superficial figures, but have a deep understanding of the real situation of rice cultivation. Farmers are the ones who know the land and crops best, and their hands-on experience in production is a valuable asset that cannot be overlooked.
* and ** should strengthen the popularization of agricultural science, convey real agricultural information to the public, enhance the public's respect and understanding of food production, and avoid misunderstandings and adverse effects caused by false data.
When planting rice, farmers should advocate scientific farming and green planting, ignore the protection of the land ecological environment while not pursuing high yields, and guide rice planting with the concept of sustainable development, so as to contribute to future food security and sustainable agricultural development.
Although rice yield is an important indicator in agricultural production, the real yield data is the key to determining production efficiency and food security. In agricultural development, we need a more rational and scientific attitude, give full play to the wisdom and experience of farmers, and work together to protect farmland and achieve food security, so that agriculture can develop sustainably and benefit the whole society.
