"Then you still maintain your physical strength very well."
"It sounds like I'm very old, I'm only thirty years old!"
"ah?"
"You look like this after working at the grassroots level for a long time." Yang Guobao's smile was bright, "Let's go together." He said and shouted, "Beibei, go! Drive Wu Kelan back!" Following him
With the sound of shouting, a dog quickly ran out and drove back a large white pig that was trying to gnaw the bark of a tree on the roadside.
"Is it called Beibei?"
"Yes, there are six in total, they happen to be: 'Beibei', 'Jingjing', 'Huanhuan', 'Yingying', and 'Nini'."
"Where's the other one?" Wu Nanhai was infected by his bad taste and eager to know the name of the last one.
"It's called the Olympics." Yang Baobao said with a serious face, and roared again: "Olympics!" A dog that was walking quietly suddenly jumped up, ran to his feet, and circled happily.
He stroked its neck hair with satisfaction.
"You really know how to train a dog."
"This is my specialty, not a professional one. It's just for fun." Yang Baogui waved his whip and cracked it one after another. "I can also drive a cart. I learned it from farmers in the countryside. But there are no carts here. When I arrived,
The industrial group said that they should make a few large rubber-coated carts and hitch them with the Yunnan horses we captured. Two sets of carts would be able to pull a thousand kilograms. This group of people kept mumbling that such carts were backward and they were working hard to develop them.
Four-wheeled farm carriages are all nonsense. Can such a carriage be driven by a small horse?"
"I can definitely pull with a Tieling draft horse," Wu Nanhai looked at the two particularly tall and strong heavy-duty horses in the queue. This is the best draft horse bred in China since the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949. It has many of Europe's best qualities.
Draft horses are of the pedigree of riding horses. The maximum pulling force can reach 450 kilograms, and a single horse can pull a double-rubber wheel cart with a load of 1,000 kilograms.
"They can pull, but these two horses have to be kept as stallions and are not suitable for more work. Moreover, the Tieling draft horse breed has actually degraded a lot." Yang Baoguo said and sighed, "Nanhai, to be honest
I am very worried about our agricultural group."
"Well, I also think there are some problems, but there are so many things. I don't know where to start?" He imitated Yang Baogui, waving the willow branch in his hand to drive the livestock.
"Nanhai, you are a student of agriculture, so you should know what the basis for high yields in modern agriculture is, right?"
"Pesticides, chemical fertilizers, improved seeds, water conservancy, genetic modification, soil chemistry..." Wu Nanhai said,
“Is it possible to replicate such a pattern here?”
"It's more difficult. The conditions are too bad. Intensifying farmland water conservancy and promoting improved seeds are more realistic means of increasing production." Wu Nanhai thought, "Fertilizers are okay, as long as the chemical industry team builds a combined ammonia manufacturing plant and a sulfuric acid plant. But pesticides
It’s very difficult. This has to do with the organic chemical industry. I think it’s impossible without thirty or forty years of industrial development accumulation.”
"No," Yang Guoguo shook his head, "these problems are still superficial. The biggest problem is that modern society is a large division of labor system, and agriculture is no exception. Under such a division of labor system, the professional capabilities of us agricultural technicians are actually limited.
The government has degraded - and so have the farmers.
"In the past, farmers had to select and raise seedlings by themselves, but now they just need to buy the seeds directly. Agricultural technicians actually know what seeds to use, how to manage sowing, when to apply which pesticides, and what fertilizers to apply..."
"There are no seed companies here, no pesticide factories, veterinary medicine factories, agricultural machinery stations... everything has to be done by ourselves. We were all trained under this large division of labor system, and we only know what we have to do. Modern agriculture
It’s a complete chain, and we only have some sporadic links.”
He pointed at a few pigs being driven by dogs: "Let's talk about those pigs - Georgia! Where are they going?" Yang Baogui scolded loudly and drove another pig back with a whip.
On the way, "Everyone is counting on them to develop large-scale pig farming and live a life of eating meat, right? No one knows how many vaccines a piglet needs in a modern pig farm from birth to slaughter.
How many medicines are needed just to disinfect the pig pens? Even if one person accidentally develops swine fever, a large number of them will die."
Wu Nanhai told him that he became worried. It was not that he had never thought about these issues, but he had never considered them so deeply.
"It looks like they have to be rebuilt one by one." He looked at the carefree pigs, humming and looking for food as they walked, "They also have names?"
"Yes, they are both breeding boars and breeding sows. They have names that are easy to remember."
"What is your name?"
"Ukrain, Dabobo, Georgia, Oros——"
"Haha, Eros must be that boar, right?" Wu Nanhai pointed to the most ferocious and largest pig.
"No, that's called the Soviet Union."
The two people were walking and chatting. The more than ten kilometers of simple road was well maintained, except for the dust after the cars drove by. The animals were walking leisurely on the road. On one side was the surging Wenlan River, with sparse farmland on both sides.
Here, the ears of rice are ripe, but there is no familiar scene of billowing rice waves - the agriculture here is still quite backward. Wu Nanhai walked with emotion all the way, thinking about how to turn everyone's knowledge into productivity, but in front of him
The difficulties are overlapping.
The road is very peaceful. Although you can occasionally see some local people working in the fields, they are far away. The several towers along the road also give the passers-by a great sense of security. These originally rough buildings
The wooden structure tower has now been renovated into a three-story turret of mixed brick and stone structure. A searchlight is installed on the roof. There is also an open space surrounded by deep trenches and barbed wire downstairs. In the event of an attack, pedestrians and
Vehicles can quickly avoid entering.
The entire marching column walked for almost three hours before arriving at the camp at Bairentan. All members of the Agricultural Committee were waiting for them - today is the day when the Agricultural Committee officially moved into its new location.
Unlike those departments that have settled in the Executive Committee compound, the entire team of the Agricultural Committee is located in what was later called the "Nanhai Model Demonstration Farm." Wu Nanhai was educated in university: Agriculture is not
Sitting in the office writing plans and making reports is achieved by each agricultural technician working down-to-earth on the land, fish ponds and fruit trees step by step. As an agricultural technician, you have to live close to
Farmland place.
The entire farm is built with the latest red bricks produced by the brick kiln. There is probably no more magnificent building complex in Bairen City than here: offices, agricultural technology laboratories, warehouses, agricultural machinery stations, cellars, and neatly arranged grains.
There is a water-powered mill on the riverside, and the newly built corrals exude the fragrance of logs. The only cement building is a row of pressurized biogas digesters - processing all kinds of garbage and wastewater discharged from living areas and agricultural areas.
and excrement. The biogas produced is supplied to the canteen for cooking. In the future, when there is more waste, more biogas can be used to generate electricity. The biogas slurry can be used for fertilization or feed additives, but the final biogas residue is better
of fertilizer.
There was originally a permanent glass greenhouse in the construction plan, but the industrial sector has not yet produced glass, so it is temporarily suspended. Fortunately, Hainan has a subtropical climate, and even the accumulated temperature during the Little Ice Age was sufficient.
.
"The area designated for us as the experimental field," Ye Yuming pointed to the benchmark that served as the boundary of the land, "extends from here to the water-powered mill by the river."
The distance from here to the river is more than 100 meters, and the length is also 200 meters. It is an irregular rectangle. Calculated, it is about more than 20 acres of modern acres. It is no problem to use it as a vegetable field or experimental field.
A small part of this land has now been leveled, and some vegetables such as cabbage, green vegetables, green peppers, and tomatoes have been sown. At this time, some vegetables have entered the harvesting period, and the dining table in the canteen can be a little richer.
However, most of the land is still composed of more rocks and less soil. There are still many tree roots left. The land needs to be leveled and some soil may have to be transported. He observed the height of the river bank and the water boundary during the wet season.
Lines, estimating how many irrigation canals are needed, whether to build flood control levees and other water conservancy facilities. Where to plant fruit trees, dig fish ponds, and where to temporarily settle the tropical crop seedlings brought, all these must be considered one by one.
The entire building complex of the Agricultural Committee cannot be spared. It can be used for courtyard economy. A grape trellis has been set up on the corridor in the yard. A grape trellis on half an acre of land can harvest 1,000 kilograms of grapes. It does not occupy any space and can be harvested.
Shade. You can plant some fruit trees behind the house...
He was thinking in his mind that he was very happy. However, the labor force is now insufficient. He needs to find Wu De to recruit a few local farmers to help with the work - it is best to hire them directly as long-term workers. As for the local agricultural situation, it is best to find a
The landlord came to ask, but I heard that the landlords and rich peasants had been let go. What a pity. This kind of people have rich experience in agricultural production and know a lot about the social conditions in the countryside. But he doesn't know how.
To speak Lingao dialect, you have to find someone to translate it. It's troublesome. It seems that you have to learn it yourself. Don't forget to say that in the future, you will have to have some emotional communication when you want a wife and a concubine. Should we start with Ah Oh Goose Yi? But these are all
We agreed to meet tomorrow. After walking for several hours, he was really tired.
That day he fell asleep in the office of the Committee of Agriculture. After so many days, he finally had a tile on his head and could sleep in the room. He felt very happy. It seems that happiness really depends on comparison.
