BEIJING, Aug. 22 (Xinhua) — China's gross early rice output will reach 28.52 million tonnes in 2025, up 340,000 tonnes or 1.2 percent from the previous year, the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) said Friday.

The average yield of early rice reached 400.8 kg per mu (about 0.067 hectares), exceeding the 400 kg mark for the first time, the department said. This marked a year-on-year increase of 1.5 percent, despite a slight decline in the total sown area of 0.3 percent.

NBS official Wei Fenghua attributed the growth to favorable weather conditions, a low incidence of natural disasters and effective policy support, including an increase in the minimum purchase price for early long-grain rice and incentives for major grain-producing counties.

The stable harvest of spring grains and increased production of early rice in China this year have laid a solid foundation for ensuring food security throughout the year and provided strong support for maintaining economic growth amid a complex and unfavorable international environment, the spokesperson said. –0–
