In 2017, farmers planted a new type of "lazy rice" and harvested for more than a year, with a yield of more than 1,000 jin per mu.

There is a kind of rice that can be harvested for many years in one year, which grows rice again in the next year, just like the leeks we usually plant, which leaves roots after harvest and can be harvested again the next year.

The row spacing of this kind of rice needs to be very wide. it is a new variety bred by crossing. it has a yield of more than 1000 jin per mu, small rice grains, oval shape, white color, and tastes like northeast rice.

"lazy rice" can not only grow for many years, but more importantly, its nutritional value is high, with a protein content of 8.7%, while that of ordinary rice is less than 8%. The rice yield is 72%, which is higher than the average rice yield of 67%. But the market price is about 3 yuan per jin.

However, at present, "lazy rice" is only planted in a small number of areas, and it has not yet been popularized. I feel excited when I think about it. In the future, when farmers plant, they will not have to sow and transplant rice seedlings every year, saving a lot of labor.
