I am Yuan Longping, a hybrid rice leader. As you know, the yield of hybrid rice is much higher than the yield of conventional rice.
我是袁隆平，主要从事杂交水稻方面工作。众所周知，杂交水稻的产量比常规稻高很多。
Currently, the area under hybrid rice in China is 17 million hectares, and the average yield is about 8 metric tons per hectare.
现在，杂交水稻在中国的种植面积达到了1700万公顷，平均产量达到了每公顷8公吨。
Now, we focus our efforts on developing super hybrid rice. The year target is 18 metric tons per hectare at demonstration locations with seven hectares each.
现在，我们正致力于发展超级杂交水稻，目标产量是每公顷18公吨，在每个七公顷的示范田要达到这个产量。
It's my great pleasure to help other developing countries to develop hybrid rice to overcome their food-shortage problems. And I am confident that through our joint efforts, the purpose will be realized in the near future.
我非常高兴能够帮助其他发展中国家来发展杂交水稻，以解决粮食短缺的问题。我坚信，通过携手努力，我的梦想在非常近的未来就能实现。谢谢!
