The Man Fed China and the World
Yuan Longping, born in Beijing on September 7, 1930, served his homeland with effort, achievement, and devotion. When he was young, he read a lot and was extremely knowledgeable, especially in the area of agriculture. After graduation, Yuan dedicated nearly half a century to the study of hybrid rice, and because much of the technology behind it, he earned the name of the father of hybrid rice. His research not only solved food shortages in many countries but also fed the world. What might have made him such an outstanding scientist was that he lived a simple life, caring little for the fame or the fortune.
