Chapter 374: The First Calf

Zhang Wolf didn't know what was happening on the Sino-Vietnamese border, and now he didn't listen to what was going on outside the window, and he was only dedicated to being the head of a small village.

Stay in the village with peace of mind and take care of some seemingly trivial things.

In the first month, the 16th Village Primary School officially opened, and there were various training classes with the bear children.

Just started school everyone has not changed from the festive atmosphere, classroom discipline is a little poor, received the teacher's reaction, Zhang Wolf to the training class caught a few unlucky eggs, one kicked two feet, discipline improved.

"Wolf cub! Wolf cub! Please answer when you hear it! Answer when you hear it!" On this day, Zhang Wolf was inspecting the situation of various training classes in the school, and the voice of Uncle Zhang Wolf's voice came from the walkie-talkie he carried.

This pair of walkie-talkies is a special walkie-talkie specially purchased from abroad by Zhang Wolf in order to facilitate contact.

Since Tian Xiwang's daughter-in-law gave birth in the greenhouse last year, and the cat baby almost broke her leg, Zhang Wolf once again felt the inconvenience of communication, but even Xiangjiang Big Brother has just emerged, besides, this thing is not something he can play.

There may be no problem with funds, but in domestic communication, you can't play with money.

In desperation, Zhang Wolf could only settle for the next best thing, first ensuring communication within the scope of Xilong Villa.

Fortunately, the walkie-talkie is already very advanced in foreign countries, and the communication problem can be solved by equipping each project leader, the leader of the forest ranger team and the members of the village committee with a walkie-talkie.

Although it cannot solve the communication of all the villagers, at least there is no urgent matter now, and it will not be delayed due to inconvenient communication.

Among them, channel 2 is Zhang Wolf's special channel, he usually fixes the channel of the walkie-talkie on channel 2, and whoever wants to find him can find him through channel 2.

The other channels are divided between the various projects and the rangers.

"Uncle, do you hear me!"

"The cow is about to give birth, the cow is about to give birth! Hurry up! Come here!" Zhang Wolf's uncle shouted over the intercom.

"Coming soon!" Zhang Wolf replied, turning and walking outside the school.

When I think of these breeding cattle, I think of the pit! But this pit is willing.

At first, Professor Liu said that it would cost $100,000 to buy breeding cattle, all of which were five-month-old calves.

As a result, Zhang Wolf was stunned and spent 250,000 US dollars to take down the cattle.

The reason is that when these cattle were introduced, they were five calves, but these cattle have been introduced for a year, and they are still calves! All of them are adult breeding cattle.

The experts of the Shandong Provincial Animal Husbandry Bureau have been serving for a year like their ancestors, and they must not serve in vain.

Zhang Wolf spent an additional $150,000 to get the cattle back.

After all, he and Professor Liu have the same ideal, to breed a beef cattle breed that surpasses Wagyu beef, or at least is not inferior to Wagyu.

Zhang Wolf didn't know where Professor Liu got so much confidence, new breeds of beef cattle are not so easy to breed, and it is not possible to cross two different breeds of beef cattle to get new breeds.

It's complicated, involving genetics, genetics, and many other factors.

It takes several generations of breeding to make it possible to breed new varieties with stable breeding genes.

But the experts of this era are so awesome, dare to think and dare to do.

In fact, if you think about hybrid rice, you can understand it.

With such simple conditions, Yuan Longping was stunned to get the hybrid rice out.

Now Professor Liu's conditions are much better than when Yuan Longping was engaged in hybrid rice, with the support of Zhang Lang, a big local tyrant.

The construction of the biological laboratory alone has cost more than 15 million US dollars to purchase various experimental equipment.

If you don't say that Professor Liu's beef cattle breeding plan is all pits, he will be a big tyrant like Zhang Wolf, and he must be replaced by a pit to lie down.

At the beginning, it was said that it would cost 100,000 US dollars, but it turned out that it was better to spend more than 150,000 US dollars.

In fact, it doesn't cost so much money to simply breed beef cattle, but who asked Professor Liu to find a wronged boss who is willing to spend money.

All kinds of experimental equipment are the most advanced in the world, and now the biological laboratory of Xilong Villa is the best biological laboratory in China.

More than half an hour later, Zhang Wolf rushed to the beef cattle breeding base.

This is the first calf bred by Xilong Villa, and the workers of beef cattle breeding go to the outside of the breeding room to watch.

"Uncle, how's it going?" Zhang Wolf walked over and patted his uncle on the back and asked.

"I don't know, it hasn't been born yet, Professor Liu is delivering cows inside. ”

Walking into the beef cattle breeding room, Professor Liu and the experts from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences were delivering cows.

The cow is a Luxi cow, or China's own cow, the first to give birth to a calf.

The father of the calf is a Limousin cow, which is native to the Limousin plateau in central France and belongs to a specialized breed of large beef cattle.

The coat color of the Limousin cow is red or yellow, the coat color of the mouth, nose, eye field, inner limbs and tail broom is lighter, the horns are white, the hooves are reddish-brown, the head is short, the forehead is wide, the chest is wide and deep, the body is long, the hindquarters are full of muscles, and the limbs are thick and short.

The average adult weight is 1200 kg for bulls and 600 kg for cows, and the live weight of bulls can reach 1200-1500 kg and cows 600-800 kg under better feeding conditions in France.

Limousin cattle have a large physique, fast growth, more muscles, less fat, muscular legs, cylindrical body drive, less fat, fast growth rate in the early stage, and are famous for their high meat production performance and more lean carcass, and are excellent paternal parents when crossbreeding or improving local breeds.

Since the 70s, China has introduced Limousin cattle to improve the local Chinese cattle breed.

Zhang Wolf looked at Professor Liu with some excitement, and they were busy helping the cow deliver the baby.

In these cattle, Zhang Wolf invested more than just money, since these breeding cattle were bought, half of the incense he got was used in these breeding cattle.

Zhang Wolf doesn't know any genetics or genetics, but he knows that a good beef cow should be born strong.

Therefore, as soon as the breeding cattle arrived, Zhang Wolf began to instill incense in them, and after the cow brought the calf, it was even more once a day without interruption.

Fortunately, except for the first time to instill the breath of incense, you need to touch the object, and then you can instill the breath of incense in the air, regardless of space and distance.

The gestation cycle of cattle is 285 days, and Zhang Wolf has not stopped for a day.

Zhang Wolf is also looking forward to what these calves that have been baptized by the breath of incense will be like.

Giving birth to a calf is actually similar to giving birth to a person, and the first child is always a little more difficult.

There is a need for people to deliver midwifery.

These cows carry the ideals and hopes of Professor Liu, and Professor Liu is not at ease when others do it, so for his own ideals and hopes, Professor Liu personally assists the cows in midwifery.

I saw Professor Liu put his hands into the cow's birth canal, grabbed the calf's two front legs, and gently pulled it out.
