Prof. Yuan Longping,“ Father of Hybrid Rice”, invented hybrid rice technology in 1970s. Hybrid rice covers 57% of total rice area in China and its grain yield increased can feed 70 million more people a year in China. Recently, he has achieved developing super high yield hybrid rice which can yield more than 13.5 tons per ha on large scale. Prof. Yuan has not only made this new technology to benefit China, but also has enthusiastically extended hybrid rice technology to other countries, and he has trained more than 3000 of scientists and researchers from over 25 countries and has served as a chief consultant to the FAO. Yuan’s excellent work on hybrid rice has benefited and will continue to benefit more people in the world.
