The main reason for the graininess, soft gluten, taste and texture of Yuanyang rice is that the original yang rice is planted on the land after the improvement of the Yellow River water, and it is rich in organic compounds and various trace elements. The watering of the Yellow River water, combined with the special climate of the area with large temperature difference between day and night, has created the first-class quality of the original Yang rice. Interestingly, the county's saline-alkali land has given the rice an innate alkalinity, so that the original yang rice is full of flavor without cooking with alkali.

Originating Environment Yuanyang County is located in the alluvial plain of the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River. It is a warm temperate monsoon continental climate. The Rizhao Yuanyang rice planting base is sufficient and the four seasons are distinct. To the north is the old road of the Yellow River, and to the south is the Yellow River high beach. The rice growth area of ​​Yuanyang County is in the long and narrow riverside zone with a length of 60 kilometers and a width of 15 kilometers. In addition, it is watered with the Yellow River water rich in organic compounds and trace elements. During the growing period of rice, the temperature difference between day and night is large, and the rice has high protein content and rich nutrients. In particular, the saline-alkali land of the past also gives the natural alkaline of the original yang rice, so that the original yang rice is full of flavor without cooking with alkali. More importantly, Yuanyang County attaches great importance to the introduction, breeding and promotion of excellent rice varieties. It has introduced more than 20 excellent rice varieties from home and abroad. After the trials, it has screened out “68-11”, “Golden Clear” and “Yu”.粳6” and so on as a national breed, it is widely promoted in the whole county. At the same time, boldly implement scientific and technological innovation. In 2003, 40 grams of Yuanyang high-quality rice seeds were loaded with the 18th scientific and technical experimental satellite for the first time. In 2009, 23 grams of Yuanyang rice seeds were carried by the "Shenqi" for the second time. It marks that Yuanyang Rice has entered a new era of "space breeding". The coupling of many factors has made the quality of "China's first rice".

The main reason is that the original yang rice is planted on the land after the improvement of the Yellow River water, and has passed organic compounds and various trace elements. The watering of the rich Yellow River water, combined with the special climate of the day and night temperature difference in the area, has created the first-class quality of the original Yang rice. Interestingly, the county's saline-alkali land has given the rice an innate alkalinity, so that the original yang rice is full of flavor without cooking with alkali. According to the comparison of the national authorities, the protein, starch and copper, iron, calcium and other trace elements of Yuanyang rice are higher than the internationally renowned Thai rice.
