Chapter 56 [Aquaculture Aquatic Products]
Taking advantage of the work gap between the acceptance of the alpine reservoir project, Lefu successfully renovated all the alpine reservoirs. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info From now on, the water in these reservoirs will not need to be added to the space spirit spring for five years, which ensures that all the animals and plants in the alpine pastures, including humans, will continue to improve the functions of all animals and plants, including humans, so that all animals and plants will be physically and mentally healthy and happy.
As the project progressed, the transformation of the alpine pasture was carried out from low to high from the inside out, and the more difficult it became to construct it later on. There are even some alpine pastures that are completely submerged in primeval forests, or are located on the top of the mountain or at the peak, and the difficulty of construction can be imagined. Fortunately, the area of these mountain pastures, which are the most difficult to construct, are very small, and the area of no more than 500 acres is relatively quickly transformed.
On May 20, more than 220 alpine pastures were successfully renovated, and more than 220 alpine reservoirs of different sizes have fully met the needs of stocking aquatic products. The next step is to find species of freshwater products to stock in these enclosed alpine tanks. There is a closed food chain to consider, so the types of freshwater aquatic products that are farmed need to be strictly controlled.
From bacteria in the water, to microorganisms, all kinds of algae, and then to screws, dried shrimp, and small fish. And then to the plant-eating fish, medium-sized fish, and large fish, which need to complete a complete biological chain, is not such a simple thing. The officials of the Ministry of Agriculture could not complete these tasks with strong professional knowledge, and they had no choice but to go to university and hire those experts and professors in agriculture and aquatic products as consultants.
Instruct the Department of Agriculture of the Bison Tribe to complete the stocking of aquatic products in the alpine reservoirs, as for what varieties of freshwater products are stocked. Lefu gave instructions to the Ministry of Agriculture on the types of aquatic products stocked, most of which are mainly Chinese varieties. In any case, the closed water system will not allow these Chinese species to escape from the bison tribal reserve and cause an ecological disaster.
In this regard, the USDA has given the green light and has not set any obstacles for the bison tribe? It was nothing more than the signing of a pledge. Ensure that these Chinese aquatic products stocked in the alpine reservoirs are not allowed to escape, and if these aquatic products form any kind of ecological disaster, the responsibility is all borne by the bison tribe.
With USDA approvals, stocking is well underway, as Asian carp have become an unaware ecological hazard in major U.S. water systems. It has taken over the Mississippi River and some important rivers and lakes in the United States, and these carp are highly fertile and super viable. In order to control the biological invasion of Asian carp, the U.S. government has done everything to curb the expansion of Asian carp.
And the U.S. Department of Agriculture even offers a bounty for fishermen living in these freshwater basins to catch Asian carp, and there are clear rules on how much money they pay for catching an Asian carp. Even this is not the way to exterminate the Asian carp, and you can imagine how tenacious these carp are and how capable they are. In the United States, if there were so many wild carp living in the rivers in China, they would have been eaten up long ago and could cause an ecological disaster.
So stocking Asian carp fry in the alpine reservoirs of the Bison tribe is very simple, and catching some large Asian carp in the Mississippi River can do the job. However, Lefu gave an important instruction to the tribal agriculture ministry that only two species of Asian carp must be harvested and stocked in alpine reservoirs. One species is the red Asian carp, the second species is the golden Asian carp, and the rest of the grass carp carp is free. It doesn't taste good or good, so the carp of two colors are kept stocked in the alpine reservoir.
As a species that has caused ecological disaster to the U.S. government, fishing operations in the Mississippi River are progressing very quickly. Each of these wild red and golden carp is more than a meter in length and weighs more than 20 kilograms, making them river monster-level invasive species. Stocking is done according to the capacity of the alpine reservoirs, with one pair of adult Asian red carp and golden carp stocked every 10 acres.
In addition, in order to maintain the balance, some but the carcasses of aquatic products are also processed to maintain the good health of the water quality, and some bighead carp, grass carp, and catfish are also stocked. Even the top predator of freshwater, the black fish known as the overlord of the water, you can imagine that in the closed water system, with these black fish that eat meat and grow up, they can completely control the wild freshwater species in these closed water systems to maintain a balanced state.
The Tyrannosaurus rex blackfish in the water is an ecological disaster caused by the unrestricted reproduction of those freshwater fish, of course, these blackfish are too ferocious. The appetite is extremely large, and it eats closed water systems every day and can't feed too many black fish, so we must control the population of black fish, otherwise black fish will become an ecological disaster again.
In addition to these fish, there are also some colorful koi, Asian crucian carp, crayfish Asian mitten crab. That is, hairy crabs, as well as snails, freshwater shrimp and other famous Chinese freshwater species, anyway, form a closed aquatic food chain. Within two years, the freshwater aquatic products raised in these alpine reservoirs will be able to meet the needs of the bison tribe of more than 35,000 people.
Of course, there is more to Lefou's work than that, why Asia's freshwater carp are an ecological disaster in the United States. It's not because Americans don't know how to eat these delicious freshwater fish, and because there are no large carnivores in the U.S. water system, so it's strange that Asian carp can continue to breed without becoming an ecological disaster. In order not to repeat the mistakes of the U.S. government, but also to add a few delicacies to the bison tribal family table.
The little chief personally ordered the Secretary of Commerce to come to China in person and hire some top chefs to come to the Bison Tribal Reserve in the United States. Marianne, the chief's wife, who has recovered her health, was the first to sign up, leading the housewives of the tribe to soak in the cooking class for 12 hours a day to learn how to make Chinese food. In particular, the Chinese cuisine that makes some freshwater aquatic products is used to control the infinite reproduction of Asian carp and other aquatic products.
In just one month, each housewife learned an average of more than 20 classic Chinese dishes, and the main ingredients used in a 10-course dish were all aquatic products. For example, spicy crayfish, sweet and sour carp, braised carp, boiled fish, fried snails, black fish sashimi, and other special aquatic product cooking methods. It has greatly enriched the level of table catering for ordinary people, and even some highly talented housewives, such as the chief's wife Marianne, have learned how to make more than 100 dishes with a large group of housewives who are talented in cooking.
Everyone can make 25 banquets independently, which is terrifying to think about, and there are even some highly talented housewives who have learned more than 150 dishes. It was an unexpected surprise to be able to open a Chinese restaurant to increase the family's income, and Lok Fu was very satisfied with it.
