    This variety is designed for flood and saline prone areas thats why it is taller than hybrids for irrigated non stress environments. Planting it in high salinity field (EC 8-10 dS/m) would significantly reduce its plant height. As you can see in the video the variety lodged before it can be harvested thus significantly decreasing the harvest output and grain quality when milled.
    I am working at IRRI and has worked on developing varieties for salinity and problem soils.
    The video looks like a seed production plot in a research station.

    Increasing yields is only part of the equation… If the rice requires more intrants to grow, it’s heading in the wrong direction as we need to move away from fossil fuels agriculture.
    I’ll remain skeptic until we understand the side effects.

      It'd probably be easier to grow alongside Dwarf variants also so you could plant more rice from the same plot of land

    Downside to this is when a strong wind hits the rice field, those tall rice will sleep on the ground and cant be harvested.
