The operation of "punching" the lake in the desert undoubtedly made Shahvi envious and jealous.

How difficult it is for Israel to develop desert agriculture, using brackish water from the desert underneath, purified sewage, and energy-intensive desalinated seawater...... The situation of directly drilling wells to form lakes like Jiagu is simply unthinkable.

But the red eyes were red, and Shahvi instantly figured out Jiagu's thoughts: the water source is available, but in the environment of strong evaporation in the desert, water-saving agriculture is not only necessary, but even an inevitable choice.

What's more, now the entire desert area is like a blank sheet of paper, which can be painted by Jiagu. It can be said that if Jiagu is willing to invest, it is not impossible to build a network of water pipelines all over the desert like Israel, which will save trouble later.

Thinking about it this way, Shahvi became more sober. Such a big project, one is better than the other hundred, and it must be won.

He is still quite confident in this, his company Netafim, relying on highly developed modern science and technology, has developed the world's most advanced water-saving irrigation technology, in the field of water-saving agriculture, no one can ignore it.

He did not rush to promote his own products, but first carefully inspected the process of desert management in Jiagu.

During his expedition, Shahvi found that the desert agriculture developed by Gagok did differ from that of Israel.

For example, Israel's natural conditions are harsher, but instead of focusing on desert soil improvement, Israeli agricultural scientists continue to improve the disease resistance of seeds and the adaptability of crops through scientific and technological technologies such as plant engineering, genetic engineering, hybridization and genetic modification, so that they can adapt to the local climate, soil and water and other natural environments, and produce green agricultural products with high added value and high nutritional value.

In contrast, Jiagu has put a lot of effort into improving desert soil, not only producing seaweed organic fertilizer for use, but also planting green manure and manure to increase the organic matter content of desert soil.

Of course, it is natural for different environments and resource endowments to choose differently. But this is even more proof that Kaya and its own company are very complementary.

After knowing this, Shahvi began to find a way to contact more Jiagu management, and said that whether it is to provide users with leading irrigation facilities or provide intelligent greenhouse design and other desert agricultural technology service solutions, Netafim is not a problem.

However, he is not the only one who is well-informed, and many representatives of other irrigation equipment companies have also come and gone, trying to get a piece of the big pie.

In the end, Shahvi found that the most competitive company was actually a Chinese water-saving technology company with strong roots in Israel.

......

Wenhuatang is an engineer of Xinjiang Tianye Company, which is the largest water-saving equipment and irrigation technology service company in China, and has a number of patents and technologies such as "drip irrigation under film".

Because of the backing of the Xinjiang Academy of Agricultural and Reclamation Sciences, Wen Huatang directly found Qi Zheng, who had the most right to speak, through the relationship of Academician Yuan.

"Our domestic water-saving agricultural technology has also made great breakthroughs, and I really hope that Jiagu can give us a chance!" Wen Huatang said to Qi Zheng sincerely.

To be honest, even if he has two lifetimes, Qi Zheng does not have much impression of domestic water-saving irrigation technology service companies.

"In the early 90s of last century, the Xinjiang Academy of Agricultural and Reclamation Sciences introduced drip irrigation water-saving technology from Israel, but it was difficult to promote it on a large scale because of the high price of drip irrigation equipment. After years of hard work, the Xinjiang Academy of Agricultural Reclamation Sciences gnawed this 'hard bone', produced low-cost equipment and equipment, formed a promotion service system, and made it possible to apply in a large area. ”

"We believe that water-saving irrigation is a key technology for a new round of agricultural revolution. After more than 10 years of follow-up research, on the basis of introducing, digesting and absorbing advanced technology at home and abroad, we have created a new water-saving technology development path suitable for China's national conditions. ”

In 2000, the company established a 20,000-acre water-saving agricultural experimental base and a 40,000-ton water-saving equipment production base. By the beginning of 03, the production capacity of 4 million acres of water-saving equipment has been formed. Our drip irrigation water-saving technology is widely used in more than 30 kinds of crops, promoted to 8 provinces and regions in the mainland, and promoted and applied in Kyrgyzstan and other Central Asian countries and regions, causing great repercussions in the five Central Asian countries...... "Wen Huatang briefly introduced his company.

Qi Zheng keenly captured the key words: "low cost?"

Wen Huatang smiled slightly: "We, Tianye people, have turned the weaknesses of foreign drip irrigation technology into our own strengths, and developed new water-saving drip irrigation technologies and facilities that are accepted and welcomed by farmers. Compared with the drip irrigation technology applied in Israel and the United States, we have shifted the drip irrigation technology from facility agriculture to field agricultural production. ”

"We have reduced the one-time investment in the drip irrigation system from 2,000 yuan/mu to 300 yuan/mu, which is only 15% of the investment in imported equipment from Israel, and the annual input cost of the drip irrigation belt is only 20-30% of similar products in Israel......"

Oh, that's a bit of a surprise!

Qi Zheng knows that drip irrigation technology is recognized as one of the most advanced water-saving technologies in the world, but it is also one of the most expensive technologies, known as "aristocratic agriculture". Even in developed countries such as the United States, this technology is mostly used for high value-added crops such as fruits and vegetables.

If what Wenhuatang said is true, their localized drip irrigation technology has indeed completely broken the bottleneck of high drip irrigation prices and has the conditions for large-scale promotion.

Seeing Qi Zheng's expression, Wen Huatang felt a little excited.

In fact, drip irrigation technology under film is only a microcosm of the development of high-efficiency water-saving field in China in recent years. With the attention and support of the state, agricultural scientific research and extension units at all levels have made a large number of scientific and technological achievements in dry farming and water-saving agriculture.

In the face of the increasing shortage of water resources in China, the state attaches great importance to the development of water-saving agriculture, and the market demand has expanded.

But Tianye is not blindly optimistic about this. The expansion of market demand is a good thing, but at present, the competition in the water-saving industry is fierce, and some enterprises hit the market with inferior products, resulting in uneven agricultural water-saving products, which affects the reputation of the industry.

Especially with foreign competitors such as Israel with more advanced water-saving technology, it is not easy to win high-quality customers like Jiagu.

Wen Huatang worked for an irrigation company in Israel for 5 years. During this period, he learned a lot of advanced agricultural knowledge, irrigation control techniques and management concepts, which were of great help to his subsequent development.

He said to Qi Zheng: "Israel's irrigation technology is indeed very advanced, but it also has many limitations, especially for our market, which is not very suitable for the development of our country's national conditions." I believe that if Jiaya chooses to cooperate with Tianye, we will definitely do better than the Israeli company. ”
