杂交水稻

袁隆平团队第三代杂交水稻测产，今天测得晚稻平均亩产为911.7公斤。7月测得早稻平均亩产为619.06公斤。

至此，早稻加晚稻实现亩产1500公斤的目标！

据悉，这是袁隆平团队在屡破超级稻单产700、800、1000、1149公斤等世界纪录后再次创造的新纪录。

Chinese scientists have achieved a record rice yield of nearly 22.5 metric tons per hectare, or 1,500 kg per mu, in an experimental field in Central China's Hunan province.

Assessment experts announced on Monday average yield at the field in Hunan's Hengnan county planted with the third generation of hybrid rice varieties reached 13.68 tons per hectare, or 911.7 kg per mu.

Yuan Longping, renowned agricultural expert known for spearheading research into hybrid rice strains, said on Monday the new record means one mu (0.067 hectare) of rice fields can feed five people.

以杂交水稻研发而知名的农业专家袁隆平2日表示，新纪录意味着，每亩稻田可以养活5口人。

今天在等待“考分”时，袁隆平的表情是这样的↓↓↓

记者问袁老心情如何，一个英文单词被袁老反复提及：excited! More than excited!

"I am more than excited and extremely satisfactory with the results," he said in an office in Changsha, capital of Hunan province, while watching the live announcement ceremony.

"The next goal is to promote the experiences of Hengnan county and plant the advanced rice variety in other rice-producing regions in China, contributing to safeguarding the country's food security," he said.

袁隆平表示：原来达到880公斤，我就很满意了。现在超过900公斤，就非常满意了。这是大家共同努力的结果。

3000斤首先在湖南实现，对杂交水稻之乡更加是锦上添花。下一步要向全国推广，为国家的粮食增产做出新的贡献。
