In May, the seawater rice research center in Qingdao planted trial fields of the new rice strain in Qingdao and five other sites around the country.
The trial field in Qingdao used to be a saline-alkaline wasteland. But thanks to the development of the new salt-resistant rice strain, scientists have been able to turn it into productive farmland.
