中国杂交水稻单产世界领先,但在国际种子市场份额很小,国内外种企差距明显。事实上,中国杂交水稻单产比常规稻高出不少,曾经因为出口到国外商品种子比当地主打品种显著增产,被誉为“东方魔稻”。中国杂交水稻之父袁隆平院士更是联合国粮农组织首席顾问。自袁隆平、李必湖等科学家成功突破前人的科研瓶颈后,中国便逐步奠定了在杂交水稻育种领域上的世界领先水平。1950年中国水稻平均667平方米产量只有140千克,如今产量已达到443千克,比当时提高两倍多。然而,产量跃升背后,隐藏着中国水稻种子在国际商业市场上的尴尬处境,以及种子企业的种种问题。 China has the leading hybrid rice yield in the world, but its share in the international seed market is very small. The gap between domestic and foreign seed companies is significant. In fact, the yield of hybrid rice in China is much higher than that of conventional rice, which has been praised as “Oriental Magic Rice ” because of the significant increase in output of commercial seeds for export to the local main varieties. Yuan Longping, the father of China’s hybrid rice, is the chief consultant of the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization. Since Yuan Longping and Li Bihu successfully broke through the bottlenecks of their predecessors, China has gradually laid the leading position in the field of hybrid rice breeding in the world. In 1950, the average output of rice in China was only 140 kg at an average of 667 square meters. Now the output has reached 443 kg, more than tripling that time. However, the output jumped behind the hidden Chinese rice seeds in the international business market embarrassing situation, and the seed business problems.
