  • China is home to 100 million hectares of wasteland - that's an area the size of Egypt - where crops cannot grow due to high soil salinity or alkalinity. For decades, the Chinese government and scientists have made great efforts to improve soil quality, and now, hope is on the horizon. A hybrid crop called "saltwater rice" is able to grow and yield in various saline-alkali soils, including tundra and dessert.
    Rediscovering China is a weekly CGTN show that offers a unique insight into an aspect of life in China today. With its unrivaled access to the country's people and places, Rediscovering China brings you in-depth reports on the major issues facing China at a time of rapid change.

Because her hometown has lots of salted soil, she often told me this soil can not grow anything but weed when I was little. Now this new rice comes , I can tell the joy from her voice. she is happy for the people live there.

Profits if any so should accured to the citizenry of that state. Sometimes the state need to aquire influence the best mechanism is to ensure benefical interest accured to key Policy makers within the establish power structures of targerted state. Confering benefits that accure to those who are essentially voiceless and mayhaps even hostile to core critical interest of your state is crass stupidity. A determination of the impact degree of positive returns as measured as to benefits of how said aid helps in the attaiment of your goals is necessary. Essentially enumeration of the cost effectivness of you aid does it confer positive benefits. My assessment is that on this issue context the probable benefitcaries of the aid given its cost assuming the bio tech enhancement is of substantive commercial value the balance is negative. The analogly is that their is a need to embedded protection into your technological developments especially if it can be easily stolen ie Terminator analogous tech. A iron rule of history no.2 ((If you know the value of everything but the cost of nothing you gonna go bankrupt.)) Values are important but ensuring a positive hard benefical result greater then the cost/ effort expanded trumps values generally. Also this you tube video was somewhat misleading it should have been titled development of enhanced salt tolerant rice.

      @blue copper There is always the option of using your traditional saved seeds from harvest past. Nobody compels anybody to buy Monsanto seeds with terminator genes. They purchase said seeds with eyes wide open situationally aware of the impediments. Old imperial China was not very concerned about cost their concern was over neblous values of the imperial court. You can't eat values. This new scientific socialistic China need to focus on the cold hard calculus of benefits and cost for this new China is suppose to serve the people of China not the world. In this it more or less do deliver. However they did not do their sums really do their sums on this issue. I am situationally aware of the probable ultimate recipents if this strain is given gratis, in my assessment the costs greatly outweight the benefits assume the new strain lives up to the hype. I can't say it here need to maintain decourm. Also always bear in mind iron law of history no.2 If you know the value of everything but the cost of nothing your gonna go bankrupt. Like the Ming Court which flittered awavy peasent tax levies on grandoise useless costly journeys of Admiral Cheng Ho which yielded nothing as compared to the royal courts of Spain and Portgual which spent very much smaller sums focus on yields and the great benefits that accured to their states.

    Yuan Longping's work on hybrid rice and the present research on growing rice on saline soil deserve a Nobel Peace Prize.

Thus far the Dalai Lama and Liu Xiaobo are the only Chinese Nobel Peace Prize laureates and they were rewarded for their anti-China activities.

      feeding as many people as possible with rice . He had dedicated his entire work life to research on growing the best hybrid rice & improving its yield.
      Subsequently, he & his team shared their successful high yield rice farming technology with many developing countries without reservation or compensation. The Chinese government was very supportive of all his efforts.
      Then around 2012, Yuan started the research on growing salt water rice..., until he fell very ill & was rushed to the hospital. Two days later, he died.
      Yuan's contribution to the world of "food security" is the story of his simple but fulfilling life. His followers & students are continuing the research on salt water rice.

    The problem, I think with salt water cultivation is the concentration of the salt in the soil.

Leaving deposits of salt in the soil, overtime making the soil super salty and not useful at all.

    The Chinese word for "crisis" (simplified Chinese: 危机; traditional Chinese: 危機; pinyin: wēijī) is frequently invoked in Western motivational speaking as being composed of two Chinese characters signifying "danger" and "opportunity" respectively. That's how the Chinese people with their high wisdom see crisis.. an opportunity behind the dangers. You can see this with China's massive investments in Africa and other developing countries. Westerners see danger, the Chinese see opportunities, for a Win-Win solution. That's why 150 countries and organisations are actively involved in President Xi's BRI

    as long as food is traded and not freely available, trade will control food - and as long as it is, there will be no food security for certain countries. At least in countries where food is not easily affordable.

    Question: Can you irrigate them with salt water? Fresh water is a huge problem in many arid land, yet sea water is available (Middle East).

      @@JR-zm7ju After doing some searching, I found in other videos, they use a combination of fresh and seawater. Obviously the rice wont survive in pure seawater.
      Somewhat limiting though on parts of the world where there is no fresh water but had lots of sea water (middle east)

      I think: "Not even close"! They're still talking "parts per million", where seawater is some per cent of salt, it's not just a little bit. They didn't use the word, but I think in English this might be called "brackish water". The salt is already in the GROUND!

      @blue copper the first salt water rice video I've seen was about the brackish water. I'm sure it's not as salty as the ocean water but I'm sure it's still quite salty. Next to the rice pay looked like a bay.

    It disgusts me that modern propaganda and tribalism still strips us apart.
    I have tremendous respect for China and countries like it, their innovation, their perseverance.
    Make love, not trade war, bruh...

    It's wrong to assume that all people in China eat rice as their staple food. Only 2/3 (67%) of Chinese eat rice daily. The other (33%) eat bread/flour as their main food.
