WHAT WE STAND FOR

 

 

 

 

Estimation of Cross-fertilization Possibility

 
 
Life-span of Pollen
WV 1m/sec
WV 3/sec
WV 5m/sec
Rice
5-6 minutes
0.3 km
0.9 km
1.5 km
Maize
2-3 days
172.8 km
518.4 km
864.0 km
Wheat
5-6 days
432.0 km
1296.0 km
2160.0 km

The numbers were calculated using the lower limits of life-span multiplied with the wind velocity. 1 month is calculated as having 30 days.
