[Title] => Bayer developing new rice varieties
[Summary] =>
In line with the government’s rice self-sufficiency program, Germany’s Bayer Bioscience will soon locally develop new hybrid rice varieties that match both farmer and consumer preference.
In a statement, Bayer Bioscience said it is ready to launch this year its latest hybrid rice variety named Arize H64.
The variant, which was developed locally, has higher rice and milling recovery with a shorter maturity of about 100 to 105 days. Grains of Arize H64 are long and slender with moderate aroma.

[Title] => Hybrid rice can be grown using less chemicals
[Summary] => Hybrid rice was developed by China several decades ago to feed its burgeoning population which by then had gone past one billion. It was also China that developed nitrogen-fixing organic fertilizer and soil conditioner called Exquisite BD that helped it save billions of dollars that would have otherwise been spent on chemical fertilizers and pesticides in propagating hybrid rice.

[Summary] => Hybrid rice production is on the rise and more commercial crop producers and farmers are reaping the rewards of this new technology.
Its easy to understand why. Hybrid rice, particularly Bigante rice seeds (distributed by Bayer CropScience with Tel. No. 450-3645), grows easily, is generally tolerant to pests and other diseases, promises a bigger yield, and is a healthy and tasty alternative to other rice varieties.
