King 6 glutinous rice variety yields high profits.

In the spring of 2025, the King 6 glutinous rice cultivation model yielded higher economic efficiency than the control rice variety.

The King 6 glutinous rice variety yielded nearly 4.4 quintals/hectare more than the control glutinous rice variety 415.

In the spring of 2025, the Center for Applied Science and Technology and Innovation (under the Department of Science and Technology) will develop a model for growing King 6 glutinous rice variety on a scale of 25 hectares in two communes: Dinh Son (Cam Giang) and Quoc Tuan (Nam Sach). This rice variety is supplied by ADI Agricultural Investment, Trade and Development Joint Stock Company (Hoang Mai, Hanoi).

A major advantage of King 6 glutinous rice compared to the control variety (415 glutinous rice) is its good resistance to many types of pests and diseases.

Field test results showed that, compared to the control rice variety, glutinous rice 415, the King 6 glutinous rice variety has a significant advantage in its resistance to many major pests and diseases. Under the weather conditions of the 2025 spring crop, the control glutinous rice 415 suffered severe leaf blast, requiring farmers to spray 2-3 times per season. Conversely, the King 6 glutinous rice variety was not infected with leaf blast, neck blast, or bacterial leaf blight.
