How rice can grow in the desert

The desert in Dubai can now be planted with hybrid rice that was able to grow in salty water.

This success thanks to the collaboration with Chinese scientists billionaire Dubai, Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum.

Quoted from the Next Shark Tuesday (5/6/2018), rice-paddy is grown on January 2018 and has been harvested weeks ago.

The rice harvest reached 7.5 tons per hectare, double the harvest than the global average of 3 tons per hectare.

The two sides agree to promote rice salt water in countries of the Middle East and North Africa to alleviate food shortages in the future.

Scientists will also test planting of rice on 100 hectares there this year. Experts will develop the projects after 2020 farmland 83,600 hectares or 10 per cent of the territory of the United Emirates.

Mere information, research on saltwater padi started since 1970. The discovery of this new rice species done by a scientist named Chen Risheng in Guangdon, China.

Scientists spent 40 years to develop the rice water with alien cross-mating and genetic engineering.

This Technology Can Boost Yields


For farmers, it boasts the most fertile land is so that it can generate a lot of harvest. Farmer performed a variety of ways, ranging from plowing a rice field to give fertilizer, all done in order to make it happen.

However, there are times when conventional way does not give satisfactory results. Now the presence of technology can help farmers to help them improve yields.

A number of researchers from Purdue University, United States, is developing technology to agriculture. They make a tool that can gather important data on crop harvest.

A number of researchers from Purdue University, United States, is developing technology to agriculture. They make a tool that can gather important data on crop harvest.
This tool has a component in the form of a laser radar, sensors of distinction of color, until infrared sensors that serves to measure performance and knowing the character of the plant.

With the tool, so farmers know what steps should be taken. For example, adding fertilizer and spray pesticides for a pest.
Uniquely, the tool uses remote sensors, so that the user does not need to be on land. The tool can also be placed on the tractor or drones.
Currently the research team were the focus observe sorghum, a crop that could potentially be biofuels. As for, this tool is still in development stage.
