Chapter 443: Long-term Vision (1/2)
In the oasis, in the wheat fields, the yellow and green colors make people see the vitality of the desert.
Several large translational irrigation machines, supported by a dozen pylons with a long spraying branch, spray water sources as they walk, nourishing the growth of wheat.
The field, which was supposed to be a silent work of machinery, was now full of people. A group of technicians is testing soil recipes, while another group of planters is observing the growth of wheat and exchanging field management experiences.
Peng Fengtian and Zheng Quan, who wore hats, looked at the automated irrigation equipment and the workers on the edge of the field, and their faces were smiling.
"Well, growing wheat in the desert really works, right?" Zheng Quan teased.
Peng Fengtian smiled: "I have to admit that it is better to see than to hear." I also probably understood why Jiagu insisted on growing high-quality wheat in the desert. ”
Zheng Quan asked curiously, "Oh, what do you understand?"
Peng Fengtian said seriously: "Because here has all the factors needed for a high-quality wheat production base. ”
He bent down a finger: "Needless to say, the soil is sandy like white paper, and Jiagu is willing to invest, so it can really make up for what is lacking, and it can be transformed into the most suitable soil environment according to the needs of wheat growth." ”
Then he bent down his second finger: "Originally, my biggest concern was water." Unlike the rainy and hot periods of maize production, wheat is significantly constrained by water resources, and high-quality wheat varieties are no exception. It is necessary not only to ensure higher yields and better quality, but also to reduce water and fertilizer inputs to improve industrial competitiveness and protect the ecological environment, which is even more important in deserts with severe drought. ”
Speaking of which, Peng Toyota glanced at the large translational irrigation machine working slowly in the field: "But this problem is obviously not a problem. Jiagu has a lot of money, purchased a complete set of irrigation equipment, and can also realize the integration of water and fertilizer technology for water saving, fertilizer saving, and medicine saving, and there is water mist at night to replenish water, and the rainfall can not affect the growth period of wheat. ”
Peng Toyota stationed down to know that after the night cooling, the oasis will be foggy every once in a while, although it does not rain much, but this point is simply unique, Peng Toyota consciously understood the biggest reason why the desert has become an oasis in just two years.
As he spoke, he bent down a third finger: "It is precisely because of the dry and rainy daytime, and the pure environment and isolation from the world, that the scab, which is a great threat to wheat, is simply extinct here." ”
In addition, Jiagu is a veteran in the planting industry, and knows that only scientific field management can ensure the quality and yield of high-quality wheat varieties. After selecting the most suitable 'Xinmai No. 26' for growing here, I went to our Academy of Agricultural Sciences to dig me up and guide me to improve the cultivation management measures. This thought, tsk......"
We all know that the quality of wheat has a lot to do with the living environment, and a good growing environment can improve the quality of wheat. This has regional advantages, specialized production, large-scale operation, and the protein content of wheat produced by the same "Xinmai No. 26" variety is better than that planted in Henan Province.
But after Zheng Quan listened, he shook his head with a smile: "Old man, you have only seen a little, and you haven't seen the face yet." ”
Facing Peng Fengfeng's puzzled eyes, Zheng Quan said eloquently: "Don't you think it's strange that the wheat planting in Jiagu is basically mechanized cover planting, but the number of field managers far exceeds the normal need, why is this?"
Peng Fengtian took a look at the groups of planters in the field and found that it was really true. He thought he was going to prepare for the expansion of wheat cultivation, but the scale of the staff was still too large.
"There is nothing wrong with expanding wheat cultivation, but Jiagu is not preparing to expand cultivation in the desert, but to integrate the main wheat producing areas. ”
Peng Fengtian was stunned when he heard this.
Zheng Quan went on to explain: "Generally, grain enterprises promote the cultivation of high-quality wheat varieties, and basically adopt the order model. But you and I all know that due to climate impacts, variety degradation, farmers' field management and other issues, the actual implementation rate of contract agriculture is only 30~50%. ”
"How to make a leap forward in the industrialization of high-quality varieties? How to solve the problem of low fulfillment rate of contract farming? Obviously, in addition to the varieties themselves, climate, soil and growers are the three major factors affecting the production of high-quality wheat. Therefore, the construction of the core base of high-quality wheat production and field management technical services are the best means to solve the problem. ”
In my opinion, the shortest board of scientific research units like Lao Peng, Lao Peng, is the lack of extension work, especially the grassroots extension personnel, the salary is not guaranteed, the team is unstable, and the promotion of varieties and technologies cannot keep up, so how can it form industrialization?"
Peng Fengtian had already reacted, and he pointed to the field: "You mean, these are all wheat planting extension personnel from Jiagu?"
Zheng Quan nodded affirmatively: "Otherwise, if you look at their training, you must master the quality standards and related knowledge of some advanced agricultural machinery field operations, such as straw returning operations, subsoiling operations, wheat wide sowing quality, and automated plant protection machinery...... What kind of simple training is this? It is clearly to cultivate talents who can take charge of their own affairs!"
Peng Fengfeng muttered to himself: "We will build a core base for high-quality wheat production in the desert to cultivate better and more stable high-quality wheat, and at the same time vigorously build and promote a talent team...... Qi Dong is right, Jiagu is accumulating strength. Once you're ready......"
Peng Fengtian also said with some respect: "That's not wrong at all. If you pay attention, you will find that many of the field managers cultivated by Jiagu are from Henan Province. Moreover, Jiagu's preparation is more than that. ”
"Speaking of which, Lao Peng, I'm here to say goodbye to you. ”
"Huh?"
"I want to go to Henan Province, Shandong Province and other major grain-producing areas to recruit a group of excellent wheat brokers for Jiagu. As you know, these agricultural brokers, on the one hand, connect the vast number of farmers, and on the other hand, connect grain enterprises, and are an important link in the grain industry chain. Many brokers not only help farmers to monetize their grain, but also take farmers to grow high-quality wheat together. Jiagu hopes to recruit them to prepare for the construction of a new wheat consortium and realize the transformation of the wheat planting business model. ”
Peng Fengtian "tsk" again, and suddenly had nothing to say.
Why is Jiagu able to deal well with thousands of peasant households and even organize them? Just look at this long-term vision.
"It took eight or nine years for Jiagu to become the king in the field of rice, right? I see, it doesn't take half the time for you to replicate the same success in the field of wheat!"
"Well, I have no doubt about it!"
