Скачать или смотреть Salt-Resistant Rice: China’s Innovation That Could Change the Future of Global Food Security

The salt-resistant rice developed by Chinese researchers marks a groundbreaking advancement in agricultural science.
This special rice can thrive in coastal and marshy saline lands once deemed unsuitable for farming. Its ability to grow in seawater makes it a potential game-changer for global food security.

Field trials have shown remarkable results — yields exceeding 10 tons per hectare — proving that this innovation is not only sustainable but also highly productive. The Chinese government plans to expand seawater rice cultivation to 667,000 hectares by 2030, showcasing its commitment to agricultural innovation.

If just 10% of China’s saline land were converted into seawater rice farms, production could reach 50 million tons of rice, enough to feed around 200 million people.
Beyond boosting food supply, this innovation also reduces dependency on freshwater resources, supporting environmental balance and sustainable farming practices.

This breakthrough stands as a powerful example of how science and technology can address the world’s most pressing challenges — from hunger to climate resilience.
