Chapter 272: The Great Harvest (Part II)

The second half of 2006 is destined to be a bumper year for Jiagu Group.

This bumper harvest is not only reflected in the bumper harvest of crops, but also in the rise in the price situation.

The price of pork has started to rise, the price of ginseng has started to rise, and the price of soybeans has also started to rise.

Well, the rise in soybean prices should not be a happy event for Jiagu Grain and Oil - as one of the largest soybean importers in China, the increase in soybean prices means an increase in costs.

Pork has just begun to rise in price, and when the million-level pig base has not yet produced, there is not much profit.

The price increase of ginseng is the embodiment of direct benefits.

Although ginseng cultivation has high returns, it lasts for a long time, generally 4-6 years as a cycle. The longer the production cycle, the more uncertainties will be encountered, including natural disasters, man-made disasters, wildlife threats, etc.

Two years ago, the main factor in the price of ginseng in Northeast China plunged was the "man-made disaster" - Japanese and South Korean participating companies maliciously broke the contract and sold the reserve ginseng to the market at a low price, resulting in the illusion of a large surplus of ginseng, artificially lowering the price of ginseng, resulting in a sharp drop in the price of ginseng.

The plummeting price of ginseng has not only hit the development of the domestic ginseng industry, but also purchased high-quality ginseng raw materials at low prices, killing two birds with one stone.

Later, Jiagu entered the market, and signed procurement contracts with many ginseng farmers by paying part of the payment, but did not need to harvest the ginseng, but continued to plant, which was equivalent to "hoarding" a batch of ginseng in the field at a low price.

Now we are finally waiting for the price of ginseng to rise.

This year's climate has been a disaster for ginseng cultivation.

In April and May, a number of people were frostbitten; in June and July, hurricanes blew down and blew away a batch; in August and September, heavy rains caused disasters, and many ginseng fields were almost wiped out!

In addition, the price of ginseng has been sluggish in the past two years, and the willingness of ginseng farmers to plant is not strong, the planting area has decreased year after year, and the output has decreased year by year.

However, the demand in the market is increasing year after year, and this year's natural disasters have further led to the breaking of the supply-demand relationship, and the price of ginseng has been rising. Look.Mao.Line.Chinese.Text.Net

Jiagu invested more than 100 million yuan in the high-quality ginseng purchased two years ago, and most of them were protected by the spirit array, avoiding this year's natural disasters unharmed and entering a wonderful harvest period.

Among the ginseng purchased by Jiagu, garden ginseng accounts for 60%. Garden ginseng has a growth period, only six or seven years is the best, at this time its nutrients have reached a peak, ginsenosides have been fully formed, and then grow up is only an increase in size;

Two years ago, when I bought garden ginseng, I mostly chose four or five years old, but now it is just the maturity period, and the price has risen, which is not too good.

After two years of planting, it was already more valuable than the four-year-old ginseng at the time of acquisition, and coupled with the price increase, just selling the mature ginseng on hand made an income of 1.6 billion yuan - not only recovering the investment, but also making a small profit.

In addition, Jiagu also has forty percent of the ginseng in the mountain or the forest, although it has also experienced natural disasters, but due to its geographical location, coupled with the same spiritual array protection and nourishment, it has not been affected in any way.

Mountain ginseng and forest ginseng are originally the best choice for ginseng, so their price has risen even more exaggerated, from as little as 50 to as much as 100 – and even then, Jiagu refuses to sell it.

In other words, this batch of mountain ginseng and forest ginseng is more valuable than the garden ginseng sold.

This investment, in two years, is equivalent to at least tripling. In the eyes of outsiders, Jiagu didn't do anything, just "hoarded" ginseng in his hand, then sat and waited, and finally made a big profit.

In this regard, Guo Chunfa, chairman of Zixing Pharmaceutical, which is a strategic investment in Jiagu, scoffed: "I really think that Jiagu's investment is blind, look at the ginseng gardens purchased by others, most of them can get out of the natural disaster, this is the vision, and luck! ”

Also two years ago, in the face of the strong alliance between Jiagu and Zixing Pharmaceutical, the South Korean Ginseng Corporation made a high-profile investment in Northeast China, claiming to introduce South Korea's advanced farmland ginseng cultivation and soil improvement technology, bringing a "revolution" to the ginseng planting industry in Kyrgyzstan Province.

As a result, the ginseng planting base of the South Korean Ginseng Commune was "soaked" in the first year of the sudden rainstorm, and many people in the industry died of laughter - this is of course the work of a certain hanger.

This year, there is no need to force a move, under frequent natural disasters, the South Korean Ginseng Commune planted ginseng in the northeast, and the yield has not only been seriously reduced, but the affected ginseng has been affected in terms of quality and quality, and it is almost impossible to meet the standard of high-quality ginseng.

So much so that the South Korean Ginseng Commune had to buy high-quality ginseng at a high price in the market, but unfortunately, the best batch of high-quality ginseng was in the hands of Jiagu, and Jiagu was unwilling to convert the blood and sweat of domestic ginseng farmers into the profits of South Koreans and put it into their pockets.

Most of these high-quality ginseng were supplied to Zixing Pharmaceutical and Tong Ren Tang, the representatives and backbones of the real revitalization of the domestic ginseng industry.

In the face of the suppression and threat of the international ginseng industry development power, Zixing Pharmaceutical, which has received strategic investment from Jiagu, has developed extremely rapidly.

In the past two years, in addition to developing and mastering the key technologies of fine processing such as "ginseng is not hot when eaten", "ginseng is disabled" and "ginseng biological fermentation", it is also committed to promoting the homology of ginseng medicine and food, and has developed many varieties of ginseng fruit and vegetable enzyme oral liquid, ginseng tea, ginseng wine, ginseng drink and so on.

According to the latest news, Kyrgyzstan Province is already considering opening a pilot project of ginseng medicine and food homology, and once the medicine and food homology is approved, the ginseng industry will enter a new stage of development.

In the Northeast, in addition to ginseng, soybean is closely related to Jiagu.

City of Hyrum.

The vast fields are a busy scene, and soybean farmers in various towns and villages are busy harvesting ripe soybeans to ensure that the grains are returned to the warehouse.

He Lei, president of the Golden Autumn Soybean Cooperative, was so happy that his eyes narrowed into a line, and he was full of energy when he spoke.

The cooperative he founded planted a bumper harvest of more than 10,000 mu of soybeans this year is a foregone conclusion, and he has made a simple yield measurement, and the yield of 210 kilograms per mu is not a problem.

This is the second year in a row that he has planted soybean varieties from Jiagu, and despite the flooding this year, the soybeans in his field are still performing well.

President He is one of the first soybean farmers to join Jiagu's "Domestic Soybean Support Program", and with the support of Jiagu, he has obtained development funds and high-quality varieties, and has reduced costs and improved efficiency through joint household management and continuous sowing.

Seeing that the cooperatives have good benefits from planting soybeans, everyone has joined, and by this year the cooperatives have reached more than 50 households and more than 10,000 acres of land.

Speaking of this year's good harvest, President He couldn't close his mouth with joy: "This is all the benefits that Jiagu has brought us!"

"Jiagu not only provides high-quality varieties and production materials, but also has technicians who regularly inspect the fields, pay close attention to the growth of seedlings, and deal with problems in a timely manner. Guide us to carry out post-seedling drawing and subsoiling in a timely manner, prevent cold and increase temperature, promote root growth, and promote seedlings to be whole, seedlings to be full, and seedlings to be strong. ”

"The soybean yield is higher, and the purchase price of Jiagu is also a few cents higher than the market price, and this year our cooperative has earned millions more than other farmers who have not received Jiagu's support. ”

Of course, President He didn't know that this was because he was planting high-protein soybean varieties cultivated by Jiagu Laboratory in cooperation with the Soybean Research Institute of the Northeast Academy of Agricultural Sciences.

This soybean variety, with a protein content of more than 46, is 6 percentage points higher than the average domestic soybean and 7-8 percentage points higher than imported soybeans, providing sufficient plant protein on a limited planting area.

Jiagu Grain & Oil's soybean processing plant in Northeast China has introduced the world's advanced soybean deep processing production line to extract soybean protein and produce protein granules or nutrition bars, so that the added value of soybeans has increased exponentially.

It is precisely because of the guarantee of high returns that the "domestic soybean support plan" has been implemented, and soybean farmers have been able to increase production and income.

In addition to high-protein soybean varieties, there are also high-fat soybean varieties. And the latter, taking root in the Far East north of the Northeast, brought Jiagu more than just a bumper harvest.
