Binh Giang farmer cultivates world's best rice

This variety was honored to be the best rice in the world in 2019.

ST25 is a fragrant rice variety with low productivity, only about 1.7 quintals/sao (360 m²), but its economic value is two times higher than that of common varieties.

ST25 rice grown by Lam's family in the spring-summer crop has been ordered for VND25,000/kg, bringing about more than VND100 million in profit to Lam.

In the next crop, Lam's family will expand the cultivation area to 5 ha.
