Champa rice
Champa rice refers to fast-ripening, drought-resistant rice varieties introduced to China from Champa in present-day Vietnam. The Song Dynasty promoted them in the early eleventh century. They allowed double and triple cropping in southern China and supported the large population growth of the Song era.
