Bidding farewell to Zhang Feng, Elson explained Canyon Manor to Chen Mo in detail.

The lowest altitude of the Canyon Estate is above 300 meters, which means that the vineyards are above the fog line, and there are warmer nights and cooler days, and the temperature difference between day and night is smaller than the valley floor.

The soil of the estate is mainly sedimentary, and a long, long time ago it was the seabed, with good drainage, high acidity and poor fertilizer retention. It is basically sandy and sandy loam texture......

The current vineyards on the estate are all grape vines that are more than 12 years old, and the rhizomes are developed, which is the ripening period of the vines, that is, the harvest period, and 10 tons of organic fertilizer are not much for one acre of vineyard.

Biofertilizer is manure that has been fermented, deodorized, and disinfected.

After all, it is a grape plantation, and the first thing to consider is yield, then quality.

In a few years, Canyon Manor will need 6,000 tons of manure or more per year, so you can really consider investing in a ranch.

Zhang Feng's proposal can be considered. It's not uncommon for Napa Valley appellations to have ranched wineries. On top of that, some wineries that are strict about quality even have their own forests...... The tree farms are self-sufficient in oak barrels for winemaking, and wood is planted in the vineyards to increase the diversity of the vineyard soils. Elson touched his chin and said, "Six thousand tons of treated organic manure is about 550,000 according to the price of previous years." The main reason is that the transportation costs account for a large proportion of ......"

"I'm going to ask Zhang Feng. ”

In the yard, Ah Hua and Ah Huang were having a lot of fun, and Chen Mo opened the car door: "Get in the car and go home." ”

Ah Huang jumped up, Ah Hua hesitated for a moment, and looked left and right...... I jumped on it. Chen Mo patted the heads of the two guys, this husky's heart is really big. With a blank and innocent face, he still stared at his Hari Ha eyes, and arched his nose arrogantly......

Passing through the shantytown, Chen Mo jumped out of the car: "Brother Zhang, where is the ranch you just mentioned?"

"North Central Valley...... I know one of the ranch owners who wanted to sell his ranch for a long time and put it up some time ago. Zhang Feng took out his mobile phone and clicked on the land resources website.

The Granson Ranch, which is labeled with information indicating that the ranch has 8,000 acres of land.

Eight thousand acres of ranch is a big deal in this part of California.

"The ranch is in the small town of Paskin, the location is a bit remote, and the price is very cheap, only 26 million US dollars......"

"Show me the map. Chen Mo took out his mobile phone and clicked on Google Maps and handed it to Zhang Feng, where he found the ranch, which is located in the north of Paskin Town.

Paskin is a small town, and from the map, the whole town may have a population of two or three hundred...... Maybe less.

The slightly larger population of the town is located in the Central Valley basin area, about 30 kilometers away. There is also a settlement, with a population about the same size as the small town of Paskin, more than a dozen kilometers away......

Paskin Town, a remote mountain town.

"Just this place, 26 million is not expensive. "There's also the problem that Paskin is too far away from Napa Valley, at least 200 kilometers.

"If you're interested, I'll call the ranch owner and ask. Putting aside the middleman, it should be cheaper. The local government is promoting the traditional cowboy tourism culture, and it may become a tourist area in the future......"

"Don't talk about these things that you don't have. If the ranches there were doing well, there would be no bankruptcy. Chen Mo then called Stephen: "Old Shi, I'm going to buy a ranch and want to ask your opinion." ”

"Yes, you can consider it. ”

"I'll send you a link and you can help you see if it's worth buying. ”

“OK。 ”

Chen Mo sent the link to the Granson Ranch on the Land Resources website and waited for a while: "Judging from the map, 60% of the ranch is hills. Although it is a very flat hill, the price marked is too expensive. If it's 20 million, you can actually go over and see before you decide. The ranch is too remote and there aren't many buildings in the ranch area. ”

Hanging up the phone, Chen Mo handed Zhang Feng a cigar and said, "The price of Granson Ranch is too expensive, do you know the owner of the ranch?"

"Yes, if you are interested, the price should be cheap. ”

"Eighteen million, if it's okay, I'll find a time to go and see. ”

Back on Mount Alat, Chen Mo jumped out of the car, stripped naked and jumped into the swimming pool.

During the day, the temperature at the summit is very high, reaching more than 30 degrees.

Seeing Chen Mo jumping down, the two dogs jumped down and played around Chen Mo.

After swimming a few laps, Chen Mo went ashore, drove the pickup truck back to the garage, and looked at the sports car parked here.

A total of five limited supercars, when they were bought, they were cheap, and Chen Mo already had plans to sell them now and buy a ranch.

Canyon Manor really needs a ranch, and if you don't buy it now, you will definitely want it in the future. The Granson Ranch is large, even in the remote mountains of Northern California, which is dictated by market conditions. In other states, $10 million can buy tens of thousands of acres of ranch.

But Chen Mo didn't necessarily choose Granson Ranch. I went upstairs and took a cool shower......

Two dogs rushed into the house with strange steps, especially the husky, which was as big as a pig and jumped from side to side to come in.

Chen Mo put on a pair of shorts, went to the kitchen and came out with a bottle of red wine, and the two dogs followed behind Chen Mo, you bite me, I bite you......

"You two go downstairs and bring up the dog bowl. Chen Mo pointed to the stairs: "Go, go, go......"

"Wangwang......" The husky rushed down with a long list of calls, and Ah Huang went downstairs slowly. After a while, he went upstairs with a dog basin and came to Chen Mo's room.

Chen Mo opened the red wine, poured some for the two dogs, and laughed hahaha.

These two dogs drank wine from Rayong's bastard, once the two of them came to the house for dinner, Chen Mo opened a bottle of red wine, and Rayong poured some for the golden retriever.

Ah Huang, the dog, as long as Chen Mo nodded, gave it anything to eat.

After drinking once, Ah Huang was like he was addicted, and every time he saw Chen Mo drinking, he called at him and begged for some. Later, Ah Hua saw it and followed suit.

Chen Mo only poured a little for them, not too much.

Sitting in front of the computer with red wine, Chen Mo clicked on the land resources website, searched for pastures, and clicked on the area division, and determined that it was in California.

This summer is dry, there are a lot of ranches that can't survive and choose to sell, there are 17 ranches that can be found on the website, and the most expensive ranch is Granson Ranch, with a price tag of 26 million. Then there's the Northern California ranch, about a hundred miles from Los Angeles, with an area of 1,600 acres and a price tag of 23 million......

The smallest ranch is only 35 acres and is an undeveloped ranch close to a golf course on the outskirts of the city that sells for $4 million.

Chen Mo focused on the Granson Ranch, which has a hunting and fishing license, and the ranch's carrying capacity is 4,000 animals per year.

Livestock capacity, I haven't heard of this, Chen Mo checked it on the Internet.

The livestock carrying capacity is divided into the actual livestock carrying capacity and the theoretical livestock carrying capacity.

The theoretical livestock carrying capacity is the number and time of livestock that can be supported under the condition of moderate grazing (or mowing) utilization and maintaining sustainable production of grassland in a certain grassland area and a certain utilization time, and to meet the needs of normal growth, reproduction and production of livestock products.

4000 heads should be theoretical data.

According to the Granson Ranch, there are now 300 cattle and 2,000 sheep. And the price of cattle and sheep is negotiable......

Many U.S. ranches are priced according to the livestock carrying rate, which is the number of cattle that the ranch can afford to graze for a long time.

There are 8,000 acres of pastures, only 4,500 acres of grazing land, and the other part of the title is recreational public land, that is, land where no fence can be built, and other people can come here for tourism, dinner, etc.

Public land is also privately owned, and it is a land reserve for pastures, and it is only necessary to write an application to build a fence and become part of the pasture, as for whether it can be approved...... Generally speaking, it shouldn't be difficult for a ranch like Granson, which is located in the mountains, to use reserve land.
