Guangzhou China April 14, 2011 - China is one of the original centres of rice cultivation. It is the world's largest rice producer, and it is also the pioneer of hybrid rice. Rice is an important staple food and cash crop of China.
However, the rice crop is subjected to more than forty diseases, which is one of the factors for low yields of rice in the world (including China). The diseases may appear at any stage of the growth and development of plant, attacking the seed sown, root system, foliage, stalk, leaf sheath, inflorescence and even the developing grain.
In 2010, due to the wide spread of rice virus disease and bad weather, output of rice in China was cut down. In Feb. 2011, experts made a forecast on rice disease according to weather change, related data and inspection. It is predicted that occurrence of rice diseases in 2011 will be more serious than the previous year, and the total stricken area of rice diseases will hit about 26.67 million ha. in 2011, up 5.26% compared with last year.
