After the promotion of new soybean varieties in Hei Province was decided, Qi Zheng returned to the capital and frequently went in and out of various ministries and commissions.

The "Jiadou No. 13" in his hand is a good thing, and it is bound not to be cherished, but he does not want to waste the potential of this variety.

Soybeans are land-intensive crops and are suitable for large-scale mechanized cultivation.

In the case of soybean growers in China who are now non-state-run and non-Jiagu system, dozens of acres of soybeans may be divided into five or six plots for planting, and there may be several soybean varieties in one acre of land, and the phenomenon of mixed planting and mixed harvest is serious, which can neither guarantee the quality nor the yield.

This is not a problem that farmers attach importance to or not, but is limited by factors such as the scale of operation, the lack of supporting machinery, and the non-standard use of technology, and some advanced technologies with obvious effects on increasing production cannot be applied on a large scale and on a large scale.

The question is, if we don't take advantage of the fact that the United States, Brazil and other major soybean producing countries have not yet reacted, we will quickly give full play to the high yield potential of "Jiadou 13" and let domestic soybeans fight a beautiful "turnaround battle", when will we wait?

Therefore, Qi Zheng needs Hu Qiyuan's "Jiagu faction" in the government to help lobby and promote, so that Jiagu can lead the "turnaround" of domestic soybeans.

Now it seems promising.

The domestic staple grain should be basically self-sufficient, and 1.5 billion mu of the 1.8 billion mu of cultivated land should be planted with field staple grain, that is to say, there is only 300 million mu of room to move, and these 300 million mu are also arranged tightly, and the vegetables and fruits of 1.3 billion people are also a lot of heaven.

In other words, it is impossible for China's soybean industry to rise and increase the planting area by how much it wants. The only way out for domestic soybeans is to increase productivity as much as possible on the basis of the existing planting area.

Otherwise, the appearance of "Jiadou No. 13" would not have made the Chinese people so happy.

Even so, it can only be said to reduce the dependence of soybeans on imports, not to say complete self-sufficiency – there is no need, and there is no extravagance, whether it is a government or a government.

In addition to the fact that "Jiadou No. 13" was cultivated by Jiagu, Qi Zheng is confident that another achievement that will impress the government is Jiagu's ability to mobilize and organize at the grassroots level in rural areas.

When Qi Zheng promoted the introduction of policies, the company was not waiting. For example, it is necessary to reserve the seeds and special rhizobia strains of "Jiadou 13" in advance, such as...... Form more soybean cooperatives.

Xie Kaiji, the person in charge of Jiagu Agriculture, arranged for his subordinates to start the formation of a soybean cooperative, and went to the capital branch to report the situation to Qi Zheng.

“...... The soybean planting system in Northeast China is already relatively complete, and we expect that after changing to 'Jiadou 13', Northeast China will be able to produce at least 20 million tons of soybeans next year. ”

"Now we want to go all out to develop the soybean production areas in the Huang-Huai-Hai region and the Yangtze River basin. Although we only have more than 10 soybean cooperatives in these two regions, we have also done a very systematic information analysis for these two soybean producing areas through targeted understanding. ”

"If all the soybeans in these two regions are replanted, the Huang-Huai-Hai region has the potential to produce 13 million tons of soybeans, and the Yangtze River basin has the potential to produce 11 million tons...... In this way, together with the soybean production in Northeast China, it can basically meet 40% of domestic demand. Xie Kaiji said the company's analysis.

Qi Zheng bowed slightly. If you add in the Far East, which is next door, which can meet 50% of the country's soybean demand, this figure is much more reassuring.

But if anyone in the industry hears this analysis, they will definitely be surprised.

Because according to Jiagu's calculations, more than 40 million tons can meet 40% of the demand, which means that Jiagu's internal demand for soybeans is estimated to be more than 100 million tons.

You know, this year's national soybean consumption is only about 70 million tons, how long will it take to grow to 100 million tons?

Even the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) is based on the general so-called high-speed growth of 5% or 6%, and the later the estimate, the more errors and omissions there will be.

When Qi Zheng knew about it, he thought sympathetically: However, you still underestimate the appetite of more than a billion Chinese.

Within five years, China's soybean consumption exceeded 100 million tonnes before slowly reaching a bottleneck. The internal report of Jiagu was estimated by Qi Zheng after synthesizing what he knew about the trend, and then ordering more than a dozen people in the Jiagu Strategy Department to use the existing research content as a blueprint, which is also the result that is most in line with the historical trend.

Unfortunately, not many people believe it now.

Even Xie Kaiji was skeptical.

Qi Zheng didn't care what he thought. If the original trend is still followed, within ten years, the domestic soybean import volume will be close to 100 million tons. Only by rapidly promoting "Jiadou No. 13" can it be possible to make a fundamental change in this pattern.

Therefore, after pondering for a while, Qi Zheng decided: "Speed up the formation of cooperatives in the soybean producing areas of the Huang-Huai-Hai region and the Yangtze River basin, regardless of whether we can get the leading power of promotion." By the way, there's plenty of manpower, right?"

"No problem, the young people we have recruited in the past two years have all been arranged to go to the grassroots level, and one person will follow up a cooperative, experience their ability to deal with farmers, and now it is time to become a teacher. Xie Kaiji calmed down and said.

Qi Zheng bowed his head in satisfaction.

In China, if you can't communicate with farmers, you can't be a cooperative.

This involves a century-old puzzle in China – how to organize the peasants effectively?

From a general point of view, at the beginning of the reform, the "package production to households" was to dissolve the village collectives. However, at present, the demands of the times must reorganize the peasants, and this in itself is a change of great social significance, and its significance is no less than the social significance of "guaranteeing production to households."

The so-called "together for a long time must be divided, and for a long time must be united", the same applies here, isn't it wonderful?

However, looking around, in addition to Jiagu, many enterprises committed to modern agricultural investment will unconsciously refuse to cooperate with farmers, and the core starting point is that it is subjectively believed that pure farmers cannot achieve effective management.

This is, of course, a false proposition. Because history tells us that in order to organize the peasants, the first step is to realize the bundling of interests, such as fighting the local tyrants and dividing the land, and the second step is to clarify the common goals of struggle, such as how to protect and expand these vested interests.

Therefore, it would be more accurate to say that the cost of organizing farmers is too high and the economic benefits are limited.

The reason why Jiagu can bear such high costs is that Jiagu's efficiency is so high that it doesn't look like it is doing agriculture at all - it is joked that Jiagu is a "luxury" company dressed in "agricultural skin".

Obviously, the "Jiadou No. 13", which doubled its production, is not generally high.

But even so, Xie Kaiji still reminded: "Boss, one year or two years is still too short. It is difficult for farmers to agree to join the cooperatives as soon as they say it......"

Generally speaking, farmers will wait and see the tangible benefits for a while before they take action. However, if we want to promote new soybean varieties on a large scale next year, from the end of the year to the beginning of next year, we will have to set up cooperatives and train personnel, and the difficulty and workload will not be ordinary.

Qi Zheng also knew this, thought for a while, and said: "In this way, shouldn't the cooperative share dividends? I asked the headquarters to allocate a fund to organize soybean farmers in the two places to visit our cooperative to share dividends. When necessary, you can also find the media to do some publicity. ”

"Huh?" Xie Kaiji was startled at first, then understood, and said happily: "Do you really want to be so high-profile?"

Qi Zheng said: "The core appeal of farmers is very simple, to increase income, to increase income reliably. So, what could be more convincing than real money?"

At the same time, it is also possible to show some people in the government that Jiagu did not make the peasants the objects of exploitation by organizing them -- capital went to the countryside, but also depended on who organized it and how it was organized.
