apersonwhoisthefirsttostudyanewareaofknowledge.YoungPioneer?他的品牌價值千億袁隆平被譽為中國的“雜交水稻之父”.中國農(nóng)民說，吃飯靠“兩平”，一靠鄧小平----制定了生產(chǎn)承包責(zé)任制的政策，二靠袁隆平----發(fā)明了雜交稻。

在中國人民正鬧饑荒的20世紀60年代，袁隆平提出了雜交水稻的概念，這種新型水稻具有高產(chǎn)量的特點。10年后，他研制成功了一種產(chǎn)量比一般水稻高出20%的新型水稻。袁隆平一生獻身于農(nóng)業(yè)研究，先后受到聯(lián)合國教科文組織、糧農(nóng)組織的稱譽。袁隆平雖年事已高，仍然一如既往地從事農(nóng)業(yè)研究。袁隆平人物簡歷Task2SkimmingFindoutthemainideaofeachparagraph.
