Big Organic Fertilizer Plan?

Wang Yuye smiled bitterly at first: "As soon as I heard it, I knew that it was a money-losing plan." See 1 wool 3 Chinese net"

Qi Zheng laughed when he heard this: "Not really!"

Wang Yuye said: "There are facts that have proved that Jiagu Agricultural Materials is not because of the continuous loss of organic fertilizer business?"

Du Weimin of Jiagu Agricultural Materials smiled: "It's okay, sacrifice me and make the whole group happy...... Besides, we're already moving closer to the breakeven line. ”

Xie Kaiji of Jiagu Agriculture, who directly benefited from Jiagu Agriculture, and Li Dongliang of Jiagu Agriculture and Animal Husbandry, all laughed and ridiculed to thank Du Weimin for his "sacrifice".

The so-called crops and flowers all rely on fertilizer.

Jiagu Agricultural Materials is responsible for the supply of agricultural materials for the whole group, in order to cooperate with the group's ecological development strategy, Jiagu Agricultural Materials vigorously develops organic fertilizer production business. In terms of scale, Jiagu Agricultural Materials is already the largest producer of organic fertilizers in China - although the output is not a fraction of that of inorganic fertilizers.

China's chemical fertilizers, especially phosphate fertilizers and potash fertilizers, are produced as raw materials overseas, as an important commodity related to the national economy and people's livelihood, the state implements strict control over import rights, and the majority is the state-owned capital tycoon. If Jiagu agricultural materials want to get ahead in the fertilizer industry, they can only find another way to work organic fertilizers with good market prospects and strong support from the state.

There are two main sources of raw materials for organic fertilizer production in Jiagu Agricultural Materials, planting wastes such as straw, and aquaculture wastes, mainly livestock manure.

Every Jiagu ranch and pig farm has an organic fertilizer manufacturing plant for Jiagu Agricultural Materials, and there are seven or eight straw organic fertilizer manufacturing plants in the main rice-producing areas in the south and the main corn producing areas in the northeast.

In addition to Jiagu's own agricultural base, a considerable part of it is supplied to partners such as rice production cooperatives and soybean cooperatives.

"In fact, even if the group does not increase investment in food production, the scale of our organic fertilizer production needs to be expanded. Look at 1 Mao 2 Line 3 Chinese Network After all, even if the Jiagu system and related partners, our output is far from keeping up with the demand. Du Weimin said frankly.

Since the nineties, the amount of chemical fertilizers and pesticides per mu in China has continued to increase, and it is easy to fall into a dilemma: because of the long-term use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, there is a "drug dependence", and the yield may be reduced if the amount is not gradually increased.

It is often said that being able to feed 1.3 billion people is China's greatest contribution to the world.

But behind this contribution, we pay a heavy price for it.

In order to control pests and diseases, a large number of pesticides are sprayed in the farmland, which seriously pollutes the water and soil environment and destroys the ecological balance - how many people remember, "dragonflies flying in the sunset, and frogs in the summer night" have become memories.

And, to increase food production, we use 13 of the world's chemical fertilizers. Excessive fertilization destroys the soil structure of cultivated land, resulting in soil compaction and salinization.

All things are born in the soil, and there is soil and food.

The quality of cultivated land is directly related to national food security, but the quality of cultivated land in China is really not optimistic.

Taking the Northeast as an example, the black soil is recognized as the most fertile soil in the world, and "the roots of chopsticks also sprout". Northeast China is one of the three major black soil regions in the world and an important granary of China. However, in recent years, while grain production has increased, the black soil has also been overexploited, and the soil has been significantly degraded and exhausted.

The black soil layer has dropped from 60 cm ~ 70 cm in the 50s of the last century to 20 cm ~ 30 cm today - black soil is a non-renewable precious resource, and it takes hundreds of years to form a 1 cm black soil layer. In the past, the black soil was so thick that stepping on it was like stepping on a sponge. Now the soil layer is thinner, the nutrients are insufficient, and more chemical fertilizers have to be applied. The more chemical fertilizers are used, the more they are used, and the soil is compacted, and you can't even see the footprints when you step on it.

Judging from the experience of Jiagu working with farmers, in fact, farmers are not unaware of these problems, nor do they want to change. On the contrary, the peasants' desire to change the status quo is stronger than they think.

The problem is that, first, they really don't know how to apply fertilizer and use drugs scientifically, and many times it is based on feelings; second, there are no conditions for them to make changes - in order to live, in order to ensure food production and even increase production, what can they do if they don't use more chemical fertilizers?

However, once the cooperation with Jiagu was reached, on the one hand, the farmers learned to apply fertilizer and medicine reasonably under the guidance of Jiagu technicians, and on the other hand, the organic fertilizer produced by Jiagu agricultural materials was greatly welcomed by the farmers after the group subsidy reduced the price.

The land is the lifeblood of farmers, and if it can be cared for carefully, who wants to hurt it?

But even so, Jiagu agricultural materials are not having a good time.

Ding Xian spoke out the difficulty instead of Du Weimin: "There are two typical bottlenecks in the development of organic fertilizer, utility and cost. ”

"Compared with chemical fertilizers, organic fertilizers are not only used in large quantities, but also take a lot of effort. For example, dozens of kilograms of chemical fertilizer can be used for one acre of land, but organic fertilizer for one acre of land needs to be applied to tons to achieve the same yield increase effect - organic fertilizer is mainly used to fertilize the soil, and the yield increase effect of the current crop is not obvious. ”

"But it's not a problem anymore. ”

The development of organic fertilizers is not a complete rejection of chemical fertilizers. Crops need nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium for growth, and organic fertilizers are relatively lacking in nutrients in this regard, while inorganic fertilizers are responsible for providing mineral nutrients for crops, which can make up for these deficiencies.

"In the transition phase, we are using a combination of organic and inorganic fertilizers. That is, it is mainly organic matter, which is mixed with some nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium inorganic fertilizers. It can not only meet the needs of rapid crop growth, but also meet the needs of adding organic matter to the soil. The results showed that the soil fertility after replacing 50 chemical fertilizers with organic fertilizer was significantly improved compared with chemical fertilizer treatment. ”

"Immediately after that, the laboratory made significant progress......

Chen Jianzhang, the head of the laboratory, smiled slightly.

At that time, just in time for Qi Zheng's large-scale investment in Jiagu Laboratory, he decisively set up an organic fertilizer research team, established a new process for the manufacture of biological organic fertilizer, screened out the bacillus that has a significant effect on crop growth, and established a new process of secondary solid fermentation of bacillus bio-organic fertilizer for the first time at home and abroad, so that the new organic fertilizer contains more "probiotics" that are beneficial to the growth of crops, so that crops can grow faster. If it grows well, the effect of increasing the yield in the season can be comparable to that of chemical fertilizer, which really improves the enthusiasm of cooperative members to apply organic fertilizer.

"But cost has always been a problem, and it is also the main reason for the continuous loss of Jiagu agricultural materials. ”

Generally speaking, the labor cost and transportation cost of organic fertilizer production are relatively high.

Due to the long decomposition time, the operation process of turning, drying, crushing, packaging and other operations requires a large amount of labor, resulting in an increase in the production cost of organic fertilizer - this is not a problem for Jiagu. There are fermentation bacteria cultivated by a group of people who play with microorganisms in the laboratory, and the fermentation and rotting of organic fertilizer produced by Jiagu agricultural materials are extremely efficient, and the production line with heavy investment does not require high manpower.

But shipping is a real problem.

Especially in the straw organic fertilizer manufacturing plant, the dispersion of straw raw materials makes the cost of collection and transportation high; moreover, at present, the organic fertilizer can not enjoy the relevant transportation preferential policies of chemical fertilizer, resulting in its transportation cost is usually 2~3 times that of chemical fertilizer.

Taken together, the cost of high-quality organic fertilizer produced by Jiagu agricultural materials is not low, and the group even has to provide subsidies to reduce the price in order to promote its use.

"However...... Ding Xian's voice changed, "and now the laboratory has new results, which can greatly reduce the cost of organic fertilizer production, which is another important reason why I propose to start the large organic fertilizer plan." ”

Everyone turned their attention to Chen Jianzhang.

Chen Jianzhang smiled confidently and spit out a sentence: "Seaweed organic fertilizer!"
