The People's Republic of China is the world's largest producer and consumer of rice. Many scholars feel that rice originated in China. Therefore, the holding of the first International Rice Research Workshop and monitoring tour in the People's Republic of China on 22-30 October 1979 had special significance. Thirty rice researchers from eight countries participated in this workshop and monitoring tour jointly sponsored by the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences (CAAS) and the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI). Financial support for the workshop/tour was provided by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP). IRRI has sponsored 28 previous monitoring tours and workshops in 31 rice-growing countries.
