In January in China, most areas are in the twelfth lunar month of winter.
During this period, in addition to Qiongdao, which can produce a large amount of off-season vegetables, most of them are greenhouse vegetables.
Many people have a misunderstanding about out-of-season vegetables, thinking that vegetables that do not conform to natural growth patterns are bad.
In fact, this statement is not correct. Whether it is Europe, which has strict requirements for ecological agriculture, or Japan, which is equally demanding, there is a large number of greenhouse agriculture, and a large number of vegetables and fruits are grown in greenhouses.
Therefore, as long as your planting methods are correct and your management is careful, it will not have any impact on the quality of the vegetables themselves.
Fairy Agriculture has been recruiting people in Europe since September and has not stopped for a moment.
Whether it is animal husbandry or agriculture, many European experts have been recruited to continuously enrich the various bases of Fairy Agriculture.
In addition, Xiao Qi also agreed very much with Japanese agriculture, so he went through many relationships in Japan and recruited hundreds of experts for exchanges, asking them to compete and discuss with European agricultural experts to come up with the best solutions suitable for China.
The development plan for this land in China is coming.
The first thing they jointly tested was the greenhouse vegetable model for winter vegetable supply.
Greenhouse vegetables simulate the summer temperature environment and can produce vegetables once in 20 days at most, or 40 days at a slower time, which is suitable for the supply of winter vegetables.
For a time, thousands of greenhouses of various sizes were built on much of the allocated land.
This kind of greenhouse is different from the simple greenhouses we usually see with a layer of plastic film covering a semi-cylindrical shelf.
Plastic greenhouses are just a general term. In fact, there are plastic film greenhouses, hard plastic greenhouses, light and plate greenhouses, alloy-coated greenhouses, etc. There are no less than twenty or thirty types.
There are many types of plastic greenhouses in Fairy Farm, but most of them are high-end products.
The alloy materials are specially customized from Panzhihua Iron and Steel Co., Ltd., and are made according to the standards of Japan's Mitsui Heavy Industries. Various power and automation equipment are also imported from Japan and France.
Then the plastic awnings and plastic films are also made in accordance with EU standards. The installation is complicated and the conditions are so stringent that they stunned a group of graduate students from the Agricultural University who studied with them.
In addition, the laying of water pipes, the selection of soil, the classification of vegetable types in various plastic greenhouses, etc. were all completed meticulously.
The trouble is that it was a little troublesome, but after the entire layout was completely completed, everyone entered the greenhouse. Seeing various modern facilities and various environmental conditions, I can only describe it as "amazing".
The initial investment is huge, but with the addition of Internet of Things equipment and the experience and control of European and Japanese experts, basically three people can manage a vegetable greenhouse covering an area of 100 acres.
However, the entire tens of thousands of acres of experimental vegetable greenhouses are still crowded with more than 2,000 recruited agricultural university graduate students, and more than 20,000 young men and women from disaster areas. They will learn various management methods from the experts, and deal with various
measures for the situation.
The Japanese are a little better. Experts from Europe have never seen such a dense agricultural population and were shocked at first.
But as they became more and more familiar with the situation nearby, there was no surprise. Usually one person with two or three translators, hundreds of students and farmers were doing things.
After a series of preparations and planting, in January, it was time for the first batch of greenhouse vegetables to be produced.
The person in charge of Fairy Farm is Wen Lu, who was one of Xiao Qi's first batch of employee supervisors. He is the smartest, steady and down-to-earth person, and he is best at learning the various operating methods of small bosses.
Because of this, he learned Xiao Qi's ability to use modern tools such as the Internet to promote propaganda.
As early as when we started to select a site and build a vegetable greenhouse, there were synchronously updated videos on Fairy Farm’s website, Weibo, and WeChat public accounts.
Netizens are already shocked just by looking at the process of building a vegetable greenhouse. This kind of project, which has been built after hundreds of years of technological accumulation in Europe, America and Japan, looks like a kind of beauty, which is completely different from the dirty one before.
Small and broken plastic greenhouses have a different image.
After its completion, each high-tech application of the agricultural Internet of Things and the appearance of vegetables at various stages of growth are also accompanied by videos.
In the end, watching the series of videos on Fairy Farm’s greenhouse vegetables became a very popular thing on the Internet.
Watching vegetables grow from seeds to maturity, many netizens have a feeling of "witnessing growth", feeling very gratified and a little excited.
People who use the Internet today are no longer the children and students ten years ago. Most white-collar workers are very proficient in using the Internet, and online shopping is an indispensable part of their lives.
So when they saw that the vegetables from Fairy Farm were ripe, even though Fairy Farm was listed on Xiaoyao Mall, countless netizens left messages on WeChat and Weibo, hoping to buy their favorite vegetables as soon as possible.
Even Xiaoyao Mall announced that the prices of Fairy Farm vegetables are about 30% more expensive than ordinary vegetables. Netizens who placed orders and paid for them also flocked to buy the first batch and even the second batch of greenhouse vegetables 10 days later.
Sold out.
The entire selling process took less than 3 hours, which was in sharp contrast to the first green vegetable sale a few months ago.
This is what Wen Lu wants to see.
Without sufficient publicity and a whole process experience for people to watch, it is absolutely impossible for Fairy Farm’s ecological greenhouse vegetables to attract so much attention.
On the one hand, the safety of greenhouse green vegetables is guaranteed, and on the other hand, the products of Fairy Farm have completely established their reputation.
Nowadays, many people with middle income and above in the city have fallen in love with the vegetables, fruits and vegetables of Fairy Farm due to word-of-mouth promotion. This is also the result of long-term persistence.
Of course, it is also an important step to pay special attention to the younger generation's small families and pay attention to online communication.
Others don't actually know that the vegetables, fruits and vegetables produced by Fairy Farm are actually not very profitable. Compared with the ultra-high cost of tens of billions invested, the current vegetables, fruits and vegetables sold are not worth mentioning at all.
Greenhouse vegetables are naturally very loss-making. A greenhouse can easily cost hundreds of thousands, and larger ones can even exceed several million. In addition, experts’ salaries and bonuses, training of their own agricultural personnel, etc. are also added. It is a huge sum of money.
If the current situation continues, it will take at least two to three years for the expenses to be repaid.
Fortunately, Xiao Qi has endless financial support, otherwise this ecological agriculture would not be so easy to do.
Wen Lu was so lucky, and because of this, the steps of Fairy Farm were done in an orderly and very steady manner.
The greenhouse vegetables in the northwest of Shuchuan are only part of Fairy Farm. There is also a 5 million-acre contracted farm at the junction of Shuchuan and Caiyun. Although the people here are not directly employees of Fairy Farm, their seeds and planting,
A series of routines such as fertilization are all based on the instructions of the experts at Fairy Farm.
Because the environment here is different from that in northwest Sichuan, there are fewer greenhouse vegetables, but because the moisture and temperature are slightly higher, there are many more seasonal vegetables here than in Sichuan.
Experts in Europe and Japan especially praise the environment of colorful clouds.
Whether it's the mountains, flowing water, or the weather and climate here, in their opinion, it is one of the best places for natural breeding and planting.
That is to organize the land to form large-scale breeding and planting, which will cost a little money, manpower and material resources, but is Xiao Qi still short of money? Does he still lack government support?
There is no shortage of them all!
Therefore, the experts here are very comfortable and take their time, not caring about the money and time spent. First, they must lay a solid foundation, and then slowly talk about output.
From an economic point of view, this is an outrageous waste, but from a health and long-term perspective, these experts are thinking about a hundred years from now.
Therefore, Xiao Qi not only supported their actions, but also ordered Lai Wenlu to cooperate fully and not to interfere in the behavior of laymen commanding experts just because of temporary gains and losses. This was absolutely not allowed.
For this reason, this winter, the 5 million acres of land in Caiyun are still being prepared. No crops have been planted since the autumn harvest. The farmers' income has not been affected. All are subsidized by the Fairy Company, but the Fairy Company
The company's investment costs are not low.
But starting from next year, part of the adaptive production will be carried out here. It will not be as simple as just cultivating basic crops, but will select some advanced crops that are more suitable for the environment and soil life here, so that the output will be improved.
It will slowly increase.
In any case, it seems that the meat, fruits and vegetables in Sichuan are on the right track, and their reputation is gradually gaining popularity, but overall, Fairy Farm is still a waste of money.
Others can't see the silent efforts of Fairy Farm. They just calculate the prices of Fairy Farm's products, etc., and feel that Fairy Farm makes a lot of money.
Therefore, after the green vegetables were sold this time in January, some officials began to gossip after seeing such a hot market response.
"Isn't it too generous for you to earn so much and still enjoy the free green channel? Don't just take care of the Fairy Farm family. There are so many agricultural enterprises, why don't you take care of them?"
Such words gradually became more common, but those in the capital were not as stupid as them.
Because the input and output data of Fairy Farm has always been sent to the Ministry of Agriculture, Niu Ruzheng, and Yu Chengsheng’s desks.
Not to mention that Fairy Farm is still in huge losses, but the social responsibilities they bear are enough for the government to continue to support them.
"Whoever can afford the livelihood of millions of people, then we will also provide such support. If not, there is no need to be envious."
After Boss Bian said these words at the government meeting, the gossips immediately fell silent!
Boss Bian is actually very angry.
There are really too few companies in China that are socially responsible.
It’s hard to have Fairy Company as a role model, but everyone only sees their achievements, not their hard work, and keeps making sarcastic remarks. Wouldn’t this make Xiao Qi feel chilled?
Moreover, Fairy Farm is also responsible for the task of China's grain strategy. If Xiao Qi withdraws and refuses to do it, which company is willing to take over the matter of the grain base in Indochina?
These people run very fast when they want benefits and shrink their heads when they are asked to pay. They are really not people worth supporting!
