| Abstract | China's population is 1.2 billion and growing. To provide adequate food for its people, the country has to keep increasing its output of grains, especially that of rice, a staple for most Chinese. A new rice variety, the Hang Yue No. 1, promises to boost production in years to come. It is the result of space breeding. |
