"Pollination" refers to the artificial pollination of hybrid rice seeds. Artificial pollination is an important link in the growth of hybrid rice seeds, and farmers in Jianning County, Fujian Province compete with each other in terms of timing and timing during the "pollination rush" season.

Effective pollination is the key to nurturing rice seeds. Li Deping and his wife took care of the more than 30 acre farmland as if they were taking care of their own children: it grew quickly and was moderately roasted; If it grows slowly, fertilize more and irrigate more.

The flowering of rice is concentrated from 10am to 12am, and when the male flowers bloom by 10%, it is time to start pollinating. Eject the pollen from the male stamen and place it on the stigma of the female stamen. We must race against time, flowering for two hours every day. During this time point, each rice field must be pollinated every half hour.

Zhu Youkuang, a villager from Yanglin Village, Xikou Town, Jianning County, has been contracting 300 acres of farmland in Hengfeng County, Shangrao City, Jiangxi Province since last year. After several months of hard work, he hopes that the male and female parents can meet during the flowering period and pollinate effectively. Hybrid rice seed production is an emerging industry in Hengfeng County, mainly located in low mountain and hilly areas with lower elevations compared to Jianning County. There are significant differences in soil, climate, and local villagers in terms of technology and experience. Lao Zhu guides farmers to shallowly insert maternal plants and deeply insert paternal plants, dynamically adjusting their respective growth rates through water and fertilizer management. In response to the alkaline nature of the local soil, increasing the application of trace elements is adopted to improve soil fertility, and local farmers are guided hand in hand to master the key techniques of seedling planting.

Nowadays, over 70% of farmers in Jianning County are engaged in seed production. The seed production area in the county exceeds 150000 acres, and the annual seed yield exceeds 10% of the national average. Farmers in Jianning County have developed nearly 500000 acres of arable land across the country, which is more than three times the area of local seed production in Jianning County.
