Abstract: BRS 901 and BRS 902 are red pericarp rice cultivars developed by Embrapa for irrigated and rainfed lowland production systems in Brazil. These cultivars have medium and early maturation cycles, respectively, and both have high grain yield potential, good lodging tolerance and short to medium length grains.
