Chapter 966: You Ask for Conditions
Seeing Yang Rui nodding, the focal field chief suddenly became emotional. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
To be honest, the head office of China Animal Husbandry Covets this embryo transfer technology, not for a day or two.
As we all know, the level of animal husbandry in China is quite low, and the level of breeding is as weak as fireflies.
In terms of pig breeds, it is a little better, we can talk about the taste without talking about the production - of course, in fact, it is not possible to talk about the production, because the pig company has to make money, and the pig farmer has to support the family, so the Chinese pigs are basically the British breed, the American breed and the Danish breed, which is commonly known as the foreign ternary hybrid: Duroc pig, Yorkshire pig and Landrace pig.
But in any case, we introduced foreign three yuan very early, the Chinese people since the 60s, can already eat foreign pig breeds, in the 80s, ordinary Chinese can occasionally eat a meal of meat, leaders can fish and meat, thanks to foreign pig breeds - China's local pigs are generally slaughtered for more than half a year, if they are not fed, it will take a year, which is twice the time required for foreign pig breeds, and the cost is more than double, in the era of insufficient supply, there are fewer things, and ordinary people are naturally more difficult to eat.
The gap between chicken breeds is much bigger, KFC's white feather chickens are slaughtered in 40 days, and two catties of feed are converted into one catty of chicken, from the perspective of animal husbandry research, it is simply a god-like work. Of course, it actually took a whole generation of scientists' time and energy, in contrast, to let the chicken grow four wings maybe simpler, by extension, 60 days of slaughter, three catties of feed to transform a pound of chicken chicken breed, that is, four wings, the profit is not as good as the white feather chicken, and 90 days of slaughter, the feed cost ratio of higher chicken species, if there is any economic significance, it is also the interests of marketers, and animal husbandry or farmers, has nothing to do with it.
The duck breed is historically good. Beijing and Beijing roast duck is the world's famous duck, as early as more than 100 years ago spread to all countries in the world, but, because the British people think that Peking duck is too greasy, so the great British scientists and farmers, it took many years to study the fast-growing lean duck, and breed for export -- after years of development, the fast-growing lean duck from the United Kingdom was finally sold all over China, so that the original species of Beijing duck was cut off, in scientific terms, the genetic information of the species was lost. Therefore, Quanjude in Beijing and Beijing also uses British-bred ducks - eating meat and disliking meat fat is simply the eighth worst sin in the world.
Pigs, chickens and ducks are so miserable, and cattle and sheep are naturally even worse.
China's Luxi cattle to say that it is also a good breed of cattle, but you have to see what cattle are compared with, in the world, it is indeed worse than a star and a half, this is also no way, China is a farming nation, the need for cattle is not delicious, but easy to use, therefore, China's most widely distributed three kinds of cattle, respectively, are the Qinchuan cattle for service, the south and Yang cattle for service and Luxi cattle for both meat.
Unfortunately, by 1985, the temperament, smooth movement and strong pulling strength were no longer the evaluation criteria for cattle.
Consumers don't care if a cow is docile when it is alive, let alone how many materials it can pull, and the farm doesn't care, the docile cow is also released, and the cow with a crazy temperament is also released, the point is whether there is more meat, and whether foreigners like to eat it or not.
Foreigners naturally don't like to eat Chinese cattle, the largest weight of cattle is only 500 kilograms, that is, 1000 catties, and common foreign cattle breeds, such as Simmental cattle, the smallest bull has 800 kilograms, fattening to 1000 kilograms are very easy, good can grow to 1200 kilograms, is more than twice the largest Chinese cattle, the so-called strong body to fat, marbling and other high price standards, all have to be big cattle fat cattle are easy to come out.
China Animal Husbandry Corporation wants to export to earn foreign exchange, relying on pigs, chickens and ducks are not reliable, can only rely on cattle.
Simmental cattle, the head office of animal husbandry is also available, but the price of purebred breeding cattle is extremely high, after they introduced hundreds of heads, they bred to more than 1,000 heads, and they can no longer bear the loneliness.
Animal husbandry is really a lonely industry.
Cows usually give birth to only one calf per litter, twins can be news, and triplets are not expected, in other words, ten years is not enough to breed more than 1,000 purebred Simmental cattle to the level of hundreds of thousands and millions of commercial.
In ten years, the current general manager will retire.
Therefore, in recent years, the animal husbandry company is engaged in cattle breeding, with Simmental bulls and Chinese cattle crossbreeding, so as to rapidly expand the size of the population, but needless to say, meat quality and meat yield is much inferior to the original breed.
Embryo transfer is a revolutionary achievement.
It allows any Chinese cattle to give birth to purebred Simmental cattle.
With this technology, a steady stream of high-quality cattle can be born, rather than the need to expand the population in a few decades, as the British, Americans or Japanese have historically done.
Jiao Chang looked at Yang Rui with blank eyes, and said: "Yang Yan, let me tell you the truth, we have been cooperating with the Animal Husbandry Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences for many years, and our own research institute has also done a lot of work, but this embryo transfer has always been in the experimental stage......
Director Jiao said in a low voice: "Our general manager has already sent a message, if anyone can solve this technical difficulty, 10 million funds, 10,000 yuan personal reward!"
A personal reward of 10,000 yuan can be regarded as a heavy reward, but Yang Rui scoffed at the 10 million funding.
"I'm afraid I won't be able to do this job. Yang Rui excused himself and said: "10 million funds, you are probably quite useful to the Animal Husbandry Research Institute, I have to start from scratch, and I will tell you the truth, 10 million is not enough." ”
"What is 10 million not enough?" Wen Zelin was quite shrewd when he heard the money.
Jiaochang smiled bitterly twice, said roughly, and said helplessly: "This research field is still promising. Yang Yan, it's not for me to say, if you point to Peking University to give you funds, I'm afraid it won't be enough for your identity. What kind of person are you? Nobel Prize nomination, and now that the matter has come out, I can't put it mildly, how much does Peking University have a year? Can they afford to support you? Sooner or later, you still have to come out and have a look. ”
As the person in charge of the Beijing region under the central enterprise, he really has the confidence to say this.
Not to mention anything else, the two or three hundred thousand cattle under his hands alone are worth hundreds of millions. The value of other agricultural products is not low, and in this era when ordinary people are still eating second-class flour, state farms are not considered weak.
Wen Zelin listened in a daze, and asked Yang Rui: "I just said that I want to engage in scientific research, 10 million is not enough for you to build?"
"Making" is the meaning of tossing, Yang Rui said angrily: "Do you think that the span from basic biology to animal husbandry is small? 10 million to buy equipment, get some consumables, do some experiments, there is no more, let's just say that a cow, one is a lot of money." ”
"Cattle we provide for free. Jiao Chang said, and chased after him: "The number is limited, but there must be one." ”
"In this case, the research results will be given to you for free, and I will waste my time except for a mess of animal husbandry research. Yang Rui is not dissatisfied with this distribution model, from the perspective of ordinary researchers, it is good to have economic fees, and there is no need to think about patents or anything.
However, Yang Rui is not an ordinary researcher after all.
In terms of the world, he is also a second-order scholar, one of the best scientists. His research project is naturally also a good seed project, and it is not a company or group that can conceive by taking off its skirt.
Director Jiaochang also understood this truth, he thought for a while, and said: "Yang Yan, let's first say if we can make this embryo transfer project, if you say that you can do it, you can put forward the conditions, and I will fight for it from above." (To be continued.) )
