Chapter 313: Adding "nutritious meals" to crops
In order to track the prospect of commercialization of seaweed, oceanographer Yao Jianyi asked for a further visit to the production and application of seaweed organic fertilizer. Look at 1 gross 2 lines 3 Chinese net
Qi Zheng discussed with Chen Jianzhang, agreed to his request, and Chen Jianzhang took him on a tour.
Seaweed organic fertilizer plant in northern Jiangsu.
Obviously, I entered the organic fertilizer production plant, but the finished product smelled a faint fishy smell.
When Yao Jianyi knew that Jiagu was using an advanced biological fermentation technology route, he couldn't help but secretly estimate the technical background of Jiagu Laboratory in his heart.
Seaweed fertilizer can be added to straw or soybean meal as a mixture, and 1 ton of seaweed raw material can be fermented into 11 tons of seaweed organic fertilizer.
Yao Jianyi doesn't know the cost of producing organic fertilizer in Jiagu, but judging from Chen Jianzhang's attitude, it should be acceptable. Of course, in addition to the cost, he is more concerned about the fertilizer effect.
The specific fertilizer effect depends on the application, Chen Jianzhang first took him to Jiagu's organic fertilizer application cooperation demonstration site in Suzhou Province.
In order to promote and display the effect of organic fertilizer, Jiagu Agricultural Materials has selected a group of growers in various places as cooperative demonstration sites, and the Green Park Agricultural Cooperative in northern Jiangsu is such a cooperative household.
Walking into the facility agricultural park of the Green Park Cooperative, there are more than 100 greenhouses in the park, all of which are planted with tomatoes.
After visiting several greenhouses, Yao Jianyi found that the tomatoes in the greenhouses of the Green Park Cooperative were indeed a little different from those of ordinary growers, and the tomato seedlings grew better and the fruit color was smoother.
These tomatoes are made with organic fertilizer from Jiagu Agricultural Materials.
According to the chairman of the Green Park Cooperative, Jiagu's organic fertilizer makes the tomatoes look better and taste particularly good, which is very popular with buyers and consumers. Look at 1 Mao 2 Line 3 Chinese Network "The tomatoes we grow using organic fertilizer are a few cents more expensive per kilogram than tomatoes grown with ordinary fertilizer, and they are still very popular with consumers." He told Yao Jianyi and Chen Jianzhang.
After Yao Jianyi tasted this tomato, he was pleasantly surprised and said, "I tasted the taste of my childhood."
Of course, the focus is on the efficacy of seaweed fertilizer.
Speaking of this, the chairman of the Green Park Cooperative smiled from ear to ear.
"The new seaweed fertilizer not only makes up for the lack of large application rate and slow fertilizer efficiency of traditional organic fertilizer, but also significantly improves the photosynthesis of plants!"
Studies have shown that the sun sends light energy to the earth, and plants receive only about 1. Coupled with the influence of greenhouses, the sunlight is blocked by 30, resulting in high temperature and low light, so greenhouse fruits and vegetables often taste bad.
"Without supplementing light, the application of new seaweed fertilizer can improve the conversion efficiency of light energy, so that the receiving capacity of plants can reach 35, which can not only increase yield but also improve quality. The chairman of the Green Park Cooperative said.
In the face of Yao Jianyi's skeptical gaze, Chen Jianzhang confirmed: "The new seaweed fertilizer not only has the uniqueness of light energy utilization, but also has the characteristics of inorganic fertilizer, biological activity of bacterial fertilizer, pleiotropy of trace element fertilizer, and enhancement of plant stress resistance......
The chairman of the Green Park Cooperative on one side smiled and echoed that the vitamin and soluble sugar content of tomatoes planted after the application of the new seaweed fertilizer had changed significantly.
Before leaving, the chairman of the Green Park Cooperative pulled Chen Jianzhang to ask about the price of the new seaweed fertilizer and when it will be put on the market, because farmers often visit the test shed and hope to apply the new seaweed fertilizer.
......
After visiting the application of seaweed fertilizer in greenhouse vegetable planting, the two came to the rice nursery in Jiagu.
Spring ploughing is imminent, and rice seedlings in Jiagu agriculture are in full swing.
Chen Jianzhang told Yao Jianyi that Jiagu has always explored the key parameters of rice fertilization - in the past, fertilization was a "bombardment", and the seedlings in the early stage had many forks and seemed to be growing vigorously, but when it came to the fruiting stage, the panicle rate was very low. Under the cover of "fatness" in the early stage, farmers often "laugh and cry rice" in the end.
However, now the Jiagu system has achieved initial results, and the supply of water and fertilizer can be preliminarily measured according to the target yield of rice crops, the different stages of growth and development, soil fertility, and the demand of the current season.
"Just like people's three meals a day, breakfast, lunch, and dinner should be rationed, if you eat too much, you will be fat, and if you eat less, you will be undernourished. The use of the new seaweed fertilizer is tantamount to providing a rich 'nutritious meal' for rice. Chen Jianzhang brought Yao Jianyi to the seaweed fertilizer test area and introduced.
I saw that in the cultivation field where seaweed fertilizer was applied, the rice seedlings grew more evenly and neatly, and the stalks were strong.
Chen Jianzhang looked at the vigorous rice seedlings and said softly: "If we follow the previous small-scale experiments in our laboratory, plant our 'Jia Indica No. 1' rice and use seaweed fertilizer, we can properly achieve 'ton yield'." The most important thing is that seaweed fertilizer is a very magical organic fertilizer, which can effectively reduce the amount of fertilizer by about 15, save water and reduce medicine by more than 20. ”
Yao Jianyi's face was shocked, and he couldn't help but ask: "Can seaweed fertilizer really have such a big gain?"
As an oceanographer, he is not a layman, and he knows very well how much ecological benefits can be brought by the 15 "weight loss" and the 20 water saving and drug reduction.
Chen Jianzhang nodded without hesitation: "The magic of seaweed fertilizer is that it can be mixed with most pesticides and fertilizers, and has a synergistic effect that one plus one is greater than two. ”
"Taking pesticides as an example, due to the presence of polysaccharides in seaweed fertilizer, they have strong adhesion when mixed with most pesticides, which can significantly improve the efficacy and prolong the effective period. ”
Yao Jianyi nodded thoughtfully.
Chen Jianzhang gently stroked the rice seedlings and said with emotion: "You know, in the hearts of breeding experts, an ideal rice should have thick stalks, a reasonable number of tillers, and large ears can grow on each tiller, with large and full grains. Finding such a 'stunner' is the dream of rice breeding experts all over the world. ”
"Although such rice varieties are hard to come by, the application of new seaweed fertilizer can make the rice have thicker stalks, larger ears and more grains, which are the most important traits for high yields. ”
"So, how about the seaweed fertilizer, right?"
“...... It's so good!" Yao Jianyi calmly couldn't.
He was amazed not only by the huge potential of seaweed fertilizer, but also by the potential for the development of Jiagu.
Previously, although the Jiagu system was praised and respected by the media, many experts in the industry, including him, who had not had much contact with Jiagu, actually did not think much of Jiagu.
In his opinion, Jiagu has indeed done a good job in hyping and publicizing, but the ecological concept promoted by Boss Qi is probably just a good slogan.
But judging from the short contact now, it completely overturned his inherent impression.
The practice of the Jiagu system in terms of ecological concepts is far more in-depth than he imagined.
It's really underestimating the world's talents, Yao Jianyi said silently.
Chen Jianzhang didn't know what he was thinking, so he beckoned to him: "Let's go, and I'll take you to see some other more promising results." ”
