A PIONEER FOR ALL PEOPLE
Yuan Longping, known as the “father of hybrid① rice”, is one of China's most famous scientists. Yet, he considers himself a farmer because he continually works the land in his research. Indeed, his slim but strong body is just like that of millions of Chinese farmers, to whom he has devoted② his life.
Yuan Longping was born in 1930 in Beijing. His parents wanted him to pursue a career in science or medicine. However, what concerned him most was that farmers often had poor harvests and sometimes even had a serious shortage③ of food to eat. To tackle④ this crisis⑤, he chose to study agriculture and received an education at Southwest Agricultural College in Chongqing.
After graduating in 1953, he worked as⑥ a researcher. Yuan Longping realised that larger fields were not the solution. Instead, farmers needed to boost⑦ yields⑧ in the fields they had. How this could be done was a challenging⑨ question at the time. Yuan was convincedB10 that the answer could be found in the creation of hybrid rice. A hybrid is a cross between two or more varieties of a species. One characteristic⑪ of hybrids is that they usually attain⑫ a higher yield than conventional⑬ crops. However, whether it was possible to develop a hybrid of selfpollinating⑭plants such as rice was a matter of great debate. The common assumption⑮ then was that it could not be done. Through intense⑯ effort, Yuan overcame⑰ enormous technical difficulties to develop the first hybrid rice that could be used for farming in 1974. This hybrid enabled farmers to expand⑱ their output⑲ greatly.
Today, it is estimated⑳ that about 60 percent of domestic rice consumption in China is comprised of crops generated from Yuan's hybrid strains, and his strains have allowed China's farmers to produce around 200 million tons of rice per year. Yuan's innovation has helped feed not just China, but many other countries that depend on rice as well, such as India and Vietnam. Because of his invaluable contributions, Yuan Longping has received numerous awards both in China and abroad.
Given that Yuan's hybrids have made him quite wealthy, one might think he would retire to a life of leisure. However, this is far from the case. Deep down, Yuan is still very much a farmer at heart. As a man of the soil, he cares little for celebrity or money. Instead, he makes large donations to support agricultural research.
What impresses people most about Yuan Longping is his ongoing ability to fulfil his dreams. Long ago, he envisioned rice plants as tall as sorghum, with each ear of rice as big as a broom, and each grain of rice as huge as a peanut. He succeeded in producing a kind of rice that could feed more people at home and abroad. His latest vision for “seawater rice” has also become a reality, and potentially opened up nearly one million square kilometres of salty land in China for rice production. Despite his advanced years, Yuan Longping is still young at heart and full of vision, and everyone is waiting to see what he will dream up next.
造福全人类的先驱者
袁隆平,被誉为“杂交水稻之父”,是中国最著名的科学家之一。然而,他认为自己是个农民,因为他不断地在田间耕作,进行科学研究。确实,他瘦削但结实的身躯看起来和他为之奉献了一生的千千万万的中国农民一样。
袁隆平1930年出生于北京。他的父母希望他从事科学或医学方面的工作。然而,最让他担心的是,农民经常歉收,有时甚至严重缺乏食物。为了应对这一危机,他选择了学习农业,并在重庆的西南农学院接受教育。
1953年毕业后,他从事研究工作。袁隆平意识到,解决问题的办法并不是扩大农田面积,而是农民们需要提高他们已有土地上农作物的产量。如何做到这一点在当时是一个具有挑战性的问题。袁隆平坚信,可以在杂交水稻的培育中找到答案。杂交植物是一个物种的两个或多个变种之间的杂交。杂交作物的一个特点是它们的产量通常比常规作物高。然而,是否有可能培育出如水稻等自花授粉植物的杂交品种,这是一个充满争议的问题。当时人们普遍认为这是不可能做到的。通过不懈的努力,袁隆平克服了巨大的技术难题,于1974年研制出了第一种可用于农业生产的杂交水稻。这种杂交水稻使农民大大增加了产量。
据估算,现在中国国内消费的稻米有大约60%来自袁隆平的杂交水稻品种,这些品种让中国农民每年能够生产出大约两亿吨稻米。袁隆平的创新不仅帮助养活了中国,也养活了许多其他依赖大米的国家,如印度和越南。因为他做出了不可估量的贡献,袁隆平在国内外获得了无数奖项。
考虑到杂交水稻使袁隆平变得相当富有,人们可能认为他会退休享受闲适的生活。然而,事实远非如此。实际上,袁隆平在内心深处仍然是一位农民。身为土地之子,他不在乎名利。相反,他捐赠巨资支持农业科学研究。
袁隆平给人们印象最深的是他不断实现梦想的能力。很久以前,他就设想水稻高如高粱,稻穗大如扫帚,而每粒稻谷大如花生。他成功地种植出一种可以养活国内外更多人口的水稻。他的最新设想“海水稻”也已成为现实,并可能在中国开辟近100万平方千米的盐碱地,用于水稻生产。尽管年事已高,袁隆平的内心仍然年轻,富有远见,每个人都在等着看他下一步的梦想。
