Chapter 430: Harvester
Soon the wheat harvest season will come, and the wheat harvest in August 1 should be the happiest wheat harvest for the masses.
Since the wheat was planted, the land has been distributed to each family, and everyone has saved up enough energy to manage the wheat very well. God is also strong, the wind and rain are smooth, so this year's wheat is growing very well, a golden yellow.
However, there are still differences, the same wheat field, there are good and bad. For those who are lazy and lack of labor, the wheat is noticeably shorter than the adjacent plots, and the ears of wheat are much smaller.
In particular, some village cadres don't usually work, and the children in the family have not made any efforts, many of them don't know how to farm, and they can't pull their faces to ask others, so their crops are much worse than others, and they are not less criticized and laughed by the villagers behind their backs.
Before the wheat harvest, it rained well, and people moved quickly to plant soybeans and summer cotton in the wheat fields. When the wheat is harvested, it has not yet appeared, and there is no need to worry about crushing. In this way, after the wheat is harvested, there is no need to rush to plant.
During the wheat harvest, people get up before 5 a.m. every morning. As soon as it was dawn, he went to the ground. Men, women, and children go into battle together, and in one morning, they can cut two or three acres of land.
I was reluctant to go home for breakfast, so I asked my family to bring the food to the ground and take a break while eating. The women beat the cut wheat into bundles, and the men carried it to the field.
In the first year, there were not many people who had a place to row cars, so everyone used rubber-tyred trucks to push. To work for your own family, you can load as much as you can on the car, but to work for the team, you can load a little less.
In the wheat field, the old people and children help the stalls turn over, and the other thing is to look at their own wheat, don't get confused with other people.
There are also poor people who can't even afford rubber-tyred cars, so they wait for the afternoon to borrow someone else's car, so that the wheat is dried in the ground and it is easy to drop the wheat kernels. Therefore, everyone harvests the wheat in the morning and transports it to the field in the morning.
Families who lack labor either seek help from relatives or rely on neighbors. In the commune, before the wheat harvest, the villages were asked to count the wheat, and during the wheat harvest, staff were organized to help families who lacked labor.
It's good to say that the key is to cut the field, and it will be much easier for the people who distribute the livestock, and the livestock can be pressed on the field. If there is no livestock, the family can only use people to pull the stones.
The key is that there are few stones, a team has only a few stones, it is impossible to have a family, when the team is divided, it is a stone stone according to the number of acres, and a few guys have a stone.
The livestock have to rest, and the stones don't have to rest, and besides, in the team, people are also used to pulling the stones, and people are used to pulling the stones.
But this is different from when I was in the team, when I was in the team, I didn't pull the stone at noon. Nowadays, people take advantage of the noon pressure to press the field, when the temperature is high, the wheat is dry and easy to thresh.
Under the poisonous sun at noon, it is not a good job to pull stones, it is hot and tiring, even if it is strong labor, it is enough to choke.
Therefore, the wheat harvesting is carried out separately by each family, and most of the fields are done by two or three partners.
It's much easier to have a livestock, and a single family can do the farm. Women and the elderly can lead the animals to the farm, and others follow behind.
This year, Hantun Village declined the help of the commune and the county, and easily completed the wheat harvest. However, on the day of the opening of the sickle (the first day of wheat harvest) in Hantun Village, the leaders of the commune and the county still came, and they came to see the agricultural machinery operation in Hantun Village.
After the two harvesters, the wheat is brushed to the ground and then transported to the field by tractor. Two threshers in the wheat field whirred, crushed wheat straw and wheat bran flew to the side, and clean wheat grains sprayed far from the front. Immediately the people on both sides were put in the stall.
The wheat in Hantun Village grows well, and it can be said that the soil does not fall, and there is no way to interplant at all. After harvesting in the morning, women, elderly and children pick up the loose ears of wheat in the field, and in the afternoon, they use a planter to sow soybeans.
Continuous harvesting and planting, 300 acres of land a day. There was no manual harvesting of wheat or artificial sowing, and even the people were very tired. The thresher has to be sent in manually, and the wheat grains and wheat straw that are taken out have to be manually cleaned out.
A thresher surrounded more than a dozen people, and the flying dust choked people for a while, and they had to be replaced by a group of people. But it's much easier than Yangchang.
Women and children are also relieved, and no more women have back pain because they are tired from cutting wheat, and no one has their shoulders swollen because of pulling cocoons.
The leaders who came to Hantun saw the wheat harvest scene and said with emotion: "Agricultural mechanization, we have been shouting for more than 20 years, and now we finally see it." If this can be promoted, how much labor will have to be saved. ”
1,100 acres of wheat, four days, easily harvested, the yield per mu is as high as more than 700 catties. Not only was it harvested, but it was also planted.
Hantun Village once again caused a sensation in Shili Eight Villages, and the more people spread it, the more evil it became, and in the end, it became a harvest of 1,000 acres of wheat in one day.
On the fifth day, the trucks and tractors started to send the wheat seeds to the county seed station, and the rest of the people were divided into 400 catties, and 50,000 catties were left in the village.
For this year's wheat seeds, the seed station collected them at a price of 0.70 yuan per catty, and did not compensate for the grain stamps. Hantun Village sold a total of 600,000 catties of wheat seeds, with an income of 420,000 yuan, and each person first divided 1,000 yuan.
Since the beginning of production in the village meat factory, the distribution in the village is only carried out according to the population, and the labor value is clearly said to be 2 yuan, but in fact, everyone receives monthly wages, completely abolishing the distribution model of half of the population and half of the population.
The two production teams in Shimiao Village together have a lot of arable land, with three mu per capita, and this year's wheat output has reached 650 catties. However, the population of their team is small, more than 180 people.
Both teams bought tractors, and the wheat harvest was faster, but compared to Han Tun, they were slow. But the members of their team are satisfied, and they are faster than the teams that are separated.
They are different from Hantun, there are many ponds and pits in Hantun, and there are more than 200 acres of land on the edge alone, and the wheat planted is enough for everyone's rations.
They only divided some wheat in the protected area, each of whom was only 200 catties, and sold the rest to the seed station, with each team earning more than 200,000 yuan.
Everyone shared 300 yuan, not that the team was reluctant to score, but that everyone was unwilling to share, and everyone said that the team would save and take over the high-voltage electricity.
Before the wheat harvest, it was the most expensive time for wheat, and this year's wheat grew well, and the price of wheat did not rise, only 0.32 yuan per catty. After the wheat harvest, the price dropped to 0.30 yuan.
300 yuan is enough to buy 1,000 catties of wheat, and the masses of these two teams took the money and couldn't close their mouths happily.
The land of other teams in their village has been distributed to households, with three acres of land per person, even if the yield per mu is 500 catties, each person has 1,500 catties of wheat, and 500 catties are left as rations, which is enough to eat white buns all year round.
The remaining 1,000 catties of wheat, 0.30 yuan a catty, are also sold for 300 yuan. I can't understand the joy of seeing the people in these two teams.
