In the crop of 2017, Ha Bi Commune, Kim Boi, implemented the model of the rice seed of Kim Cuong 111 for high productivity and economic efficiency.

 The seed of Kim Cuong 111 has many biophysical characteristics equivalent to the control seed of Khang Dan 18. In addition, Kim Cuong 111 has high uniformity, short growing time, suitable for seasonal calendar arrangement such as late spring, early summer. The growing time is 108 days, the stem is strong grown, the branches are strong breeding, the leaves are stable ... The rice seed of Kim Cuong 111 has higher number of branches / cluster and number of seeds / branch than Khang Dan 18; the branches are big and long, the percentage of good – quality seeds on branch is higher than the control varieties; the production is stable at the production period in the crop.

Through the indicators to monitor the model of rice production in Kim Cuong 111 crops in 2017 in Ha Bi commune showed that: the rice seed of Kim Cuong 111 has concentrated branches with good resistance to external conditions. , is well resistant to some major pests such as: bacillus, stripe dryness, brown backed aphids...
