At this time, Qi Zheng was building the Jiagu yew planting base in the southwest. See 1 yarn 3 Chinese net

Yew extract, especially paclitaxel extracted from the bark and branches of the yew tree, is recognized as an effective anti-cancer drug in the world, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as expensive as gold, and the price per gram can even reach tens of thousands of yuan.

Of course, the propagation inducer of Jiagu mutant moss does not know which or which substances work, but because the purity of the extract is not high, the cost can be guaranteed, but if you want to further expand the breeding scale of mutant moss, it is imperative to build your own yew planting base.

And even if we don't talk about the demand for inducers, yew itself has a high planting value.

As the giant panda among plants and the world's best anti-cancer plant, although it cannot be compared to the preciousness of yew with its priceless value, it is indeed the elite of plants - it is a collection of beautiful tree shape, wide range of medicinal uses, and air purification, and is listed as a national first-class protected plant.

The climate of the southwest region is suitable for the growth of southern yew. The investigation team traveled all over Yunnan Province and Sichuan Province to inspect the investment environment and planting environment, and finally found that the Liangshan area of Sichuan Province is very suitable for the growth of yew after scientific soil testing formula, so the yew planting base in Jiagu was set here.

Liangshan is located in the southwest of Sichuan Province, south to the Jinsha River and Yunnan Province, and the climate belongs to the subtropical monsoon climate zone.

This is a national-level poverty-stricken area. When Qi Zheng first arrived, he saw muddy village roads, dilapidated and dilapidated houses, and there was no clean drinking water.

The local economy is dominated by agriculture and forestry, and Jiagu's investment is like a pie in the sky for the local government. With the strong support of the government, Jiagu contracted several hills.

Most of the impoverished Liangshan areas are located in the high mountains and the high two and a half mountains, and the suitable environment for yew is precisely about 2,000 meters above sea level.

There is no shortage of rainfall here, but because of the high slopes and deep valleys, there is a serious seasonal shortage of water for agricultural irrigation. For a deeply impoverished area where agriculture is the main pillar industry, the lack of scientific irrigation projects is "fatal", and saplings die every year. See. Wool, Chinese net

Therefore, relying on the technical strength of the laboratory, Jiagu carried out the construction of the "Integrated Rainwater Harvesting and Irrigation Project of Road, Ditch and Pond" in Liangshan area. This project will make full use of the hillside as a rain collection surface, and build more than 10 reservoirs of 600 cubic meters, basically covering the planting land in Liangshan District, which not only solves the problem of forestry irrigation, but also solves the problem of safe drinking water for local villagers.

The villagers are very fond of Jiagu. For them, the arrival of Jiagu has not only helped solve the infrastructure problems that have plagued them for a long time, but also brought a lot of job opportunities.

March and April, just in time for the rainy season, is also a good time for yew transplanting and planting. Jiagu Agriculture's forestry team brought yew seedlings and production technology to the mountain in a timely manner, and led the farmers to plant yew trees.

The cultivation of yew requires technology, and the forestry team of Jiagu Agriculture specially invited an old man who has been studying yew for a long time as a consultant to guide the planting.

"My biggest wish now is to promote yew planting in the poor areas of Liangshan, so that this lucid water and lush mountains can become a gold and silver mountain for poverty alleviation. ”

Lin Guishan, who was engaged in logging when he was young, retired from the logging business and led forest farmers to establish a number of forestry experimental demonstration bases. At the same time, an idea also lingered in his mind: how to make afforestation not only produce ecological value, but also have economic value, so that the villagers will not be poor while guarding the green mountains, but turning the green waters and green mountains into gold and silver mountains?

Growing yew is a great option. Yew can be used not only as a potted plant, but also as a greening tree, and its branches and leaves can also be used to make health products and traditional Chinese medicine products, and yew is the only tree species that extracts paclitaxel. In addition, China's law clearly stipulates that it is strictly forbidden to dig and cut wild yew, but artificially cultivated yew can be sold and has a high value-added value.

However, the investment in planting yew is relatively large, especially in poor areas such as Liangshan, which often requires capital to break the situation. Jiagu played such a game-breaking role.

For example, because of Jiagu's investment, the road hardening project and dilapidated house renovation project in the Liangshan area were started, and the drinking water and irrigation problems of the villagers were also solved, which can be called a conscientious investor.

Therefore, Lin Guishan took the initiative to provide high-quality yew seedlings for Jiagu Agriculture, and accepted the invitation of Jiagu Agriculture to provide technical guidance for the yew base of Jiagu Agriculture.

......

The hillsides are lush with yews.

Facing this freshly planted, one-person-tall yew forest, the white-haired Lin Guishan had gentle eyes. He caressed the branches, as if caressing his own minor grandson.

"Ten years of trees, 100 years of people. Elder Lin, how long will it take for us to see this yew grow into a mature tree?" Qi Zheng on the side asked with a smile.

Lin Guishan squinted: "The growth rate of yew is relatively slow, and it only grows one or twenty centimeters a year under natural conditions. Usually in southern regions, yew trees need to grow for more than ten years before they reach adulthood. These trees are six or seven years old, and they are not far from flowering and fruiting. ”

Yew is the older the tree, the more valuable, Jiagu purchased six or seven years old saplings, the average of each is more than 2,000 yuan, just the investment in the sapling, Qi Zheng smashed into hundreds of millions of yuan.

Talking about the cultivation method of yew, Lin Guishan told Qi Zheng that yew is a plant that can grow in harsh environments, and can survive in temperatures of 40 degrees Celsius and minus 25 degrees Celsius - in this year's snowstorm, the yew in his demonstration base basically did not suffer much loss.

Yew prefers to grow in shade and is drought and barren, but if you want to grow faster, the best environment is loose and fertile soil.

"Taxus can only be planted with bio-organic fertilizer, not compound fertilizer, let alone urea...... Only by improving the growth environment can it be conducive to the synthesis of effective ingredients in the plant and improve the content and quality. Lin Guishan imparts his experience without reservation.

Qi Zheng asked, "Does this active ingredient refer to paclitaxel and other substances?"

Lin Guishan said: "Yes." Although yew is a treasure all over the body, the most eye-catching thing is the anti-cancer substance paclitaxel. In the 90s, paclitaxel in yew bark was first discovered in the United States to have anti-cancer effects. After the news reached our country, people frantically peeled the yew, and more and more yew lives came to an abrupt end overnight, causing the number of yew to decline sharply. ”

"We cultivate yew not only to produce more anti-cancer drugs, but also to protect wild yew species. ”

Qi Zheng has read relevant information, and so far, the United States is still the largest consumer of paclitaxel. There are also large quantities of wild yew in the United States, but U.S. law only allows the import of paclitaxel from abroad, but never the use of yew in its own country.

From the perspective of the domestic market, although the output of paclitaxel stock solution in China is about 50 kilograms, only a small part is used for domestic patients, mainly exported to Europe, the United States and island countries. China's demand for paclitaxel is conservatively estimated to be more than 1,000 kilograms per year - the current source of raw materials and paclitaxel pharmaceutical products are far from meeting the needs of the domestic market.

Even the highest content of the Northeast yew is only 2 parts per 10,000, which dooms most cancer patients to not be able to afford paclitaxel. Lin Guishan sighed regretfully.

Not necessarily!

Qi Zheng looked at the yew trees all over the mountain, and his eyes were shining.

"Green Bamboo Hundred Array (Third Order) trigger, main wood system, range: 250 kilometers radius. Effect: Moisturizes, grows. The creature is in the array, as if it was newborn, raising purple flowers, and growing vigorously. ”

"Three-star Spirit Gathering Array (third-order) trigger, five series balanced, range: 250 kilometers around. Effect: Gathers spirits and dissolves turbidity. Creatures are in the array, which can make the aura cleanse the body, the soul is solid, and the yin and yang are supple. ”

The "Green Bamboo Lark Array" promotes yew to grow faster, and the "Three-Star Gathering Spirit Array" ...... It is beneficial for the deposition of dry matter such as paclitaxel in yew.

Qi Zheng has discovered that paclitaxel is a spiritual substance, and the moisturizing of spiritual energy can definitely promote the transformation of paclitaxel.

Although the transformation efficiency is not yet known, the yew base in Jiagu will surely bring more gospel to the world!
