His super grain brought yields (产量) of 13.9 tons of rice per hectare (公顷)， or 926.6 kilograms per mu (1/15 hectare). This set a new world record for rice output. “I was very happy as it was very difficult to produce such a high yield of rice，” Yuan said at a news conference on September 19， 2011. The rice breed， DH2525 (Y two superior No 2)， was tested in Longhui county in Hunan province. Yuans team produced 10.5 tons of rice per hectare in 2000. In 2004 they produced 12 tons of rice per hectare. Both times they set a world record. China plants about 29 million hectares of rice every year. It has an average (平均的) output of 6.3 tons per hectare， according to the National Bureau of Statistics. Hybrid rice is produced by crossbreeding different varieties of rice.Yuan developed the first Chinese hybrid rice variety in 1974. His earlier hybrid rice has been planted in India， Vietnam and the US. A total of three million hectares of land are covered by the rice. Yuan said that an additional 75 million hectares would be enough to feed 400 million to 500 million people. 1.Match the pictures and the proper introductions.
