Xie said the measurements included weight of the new rice grain, water content, acreage and extraction of impurities.
He said the harvest was part of a "double cropping" hybrid rice project launched in Hainan in December last year. It targets the combined early and late reaping with a yield of 1,500 kg per mu. Yuan Longping, who was also academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, was the chief scientist for the project.
