This section captures and demonstrates the continuing efforts of RBI to improve the rice breeding systems of IRRI, its partners, and global breeding networks. Key metrics on breeding outputs and outcomes that resulted from the continuous improvement in breeding practices at IRRI are presented. This section also highlights the breeding status for each breeding pipeline and progress in terms of the genetic gain for yield and zinc in different market segments. Investment for these breeding improvements are tracked and its potential benefits to the people in rural population in terms of its economic and health impacts are estimated.
