1181. Those Lanolin That Year (4/5)
If it only serves the pasture, it will be a waste of the heart of this second-level farm, so Wang Bo mainly grows food that can be eaten by humans. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Not only does he want to grow food, he also wants to grow fruits, although this is only the heart of the farm, but New Zealand's farms often have patches of fruit groves, so the heart of the farm should be able to cover it.
The main reason is that he has never drawn any fruit forest heart and orchard heart, and the fruits in the town have always been purchased from the outside world, which makes him very unhappy.
A successful megatown should be self-sufficient.
Wheat, barley, oats, and beer barley, which is used to make wine, are all planted by Wang Bo.
However, the first batch still needs to be planted with corn, but not only green corn, but also fruit corn and yellow corn.
He revised the plan and returned it to Motak, who looked at it and then looked at it with a strange face: "Chief, it's okay if you want to grow corn, but why do you need to grow fruit?" Especially since you're going to grow white cherries?! ”
Yes, Wang Bo is going to plant cherry trees, which are one of the most profitable fruits in New Zealand.
New Zealand white cherries are famous all over the world, and the price of white cherries is high in any country, including New Zealand as a country of origin.
This is mainly because the yield of white cherries is not high, and because of the sweetness and crispness, its skin is also relatively fragile, and it is easy to lose the seeds in the process of picking and transportation, resulting in defects in quality and then affecting the price.
Because of this, the sales price of full and undamaged New Zealand white cherries in some countries and regions can be calculated with "pieces", as a small fruit such as cherries, using "pieces" to calculate naturally shows that it is worth a lot.
New Zealanders and Australians love to enjoy and have strong spending power, and most of the high-quality white cherries are consumed at home, and if they can be sold abroad in good condition, the profits are simply amazing.
And because the seasons in the northern and southern hemispheres are opposite, when the New Zealand white cherry is on the market, it happens that many countries in the northern hemisphere have no fruit, which makes it more valuable.
When Wang Bo checked the price of fresh fruits on the Internet, he found that white cherries can be sold for fifty dollars a pound in the United States, and the best Rainier white cherries can even cost hundreds of dollars a pound!
It's definitely a good business!
In terms of white cherry selection, Wang Bo also chose Reinier.
There are several different "small varieties" of white cherries in New Zealand, the best of which is Rainier.
This is a variety with a history of more than 60 years, first developed in 1952 by Harold Fogel of the University of Washington in the United States, named after the Rainier Mountains, with thin skin, large size, sweet taste, plump flesh and smooth taste.
Like kiwifruit, Rainier cherries are also immigrant fruits, which were introduced to New Zealand and cultivated to develop their unique New Zealand cherry qualities in the unique natural conditions of the Otago region of the South Island.
Sunset Town is also located in the Otago region, where the high latitude, abundant soil nutrients, strong sunshine, and large temperature difference between day and night are very suitable for the growth of Rainier cherries.
So from this point of view, it is a matter of course that Sunset grows white cherries, and Motac should not show such a strange expression.
So Wang Bo asked, "Yes, I want to plant white cherries, what's wrong?" ”
Motak smiled bitterly: "Chief, white cherries are difficult to grow, trees are prone to disease, cherries are delicious, easy to be destroyed by birds and insects, and it is too difficult to protect." ”
Yes, this is the reason why white cherries are so rare, otherwise they are so delicious and so expensive, and farmers in New Zealand would have rushed to grow them.
New Zealand's fruits are not pesticides, this is a feature, but also a rule, many people buy fruits back and eat directly without washing, if the fruit has pesticides, it is easy to have accidents.
In this way, it is easy to understand that insects can cause damage to white cherries.
There are also the wild birds that are overwhelming in New Zealand, and they also know that white cherries are delicious, and many finches eat white cherries as their staple food.
Cherries are so small that they have to be scrapped if they are bitten by insects or pecked by birds, but the farmers are even more serious about birds.
Chinese farmers like to use bird nets to prevent wild birds from destroying grain or fruit, but this tool cannot be used in New Zealand or face prison sentences.
Wang Bo knows this, but he still wants to plant white cherries, and he has the heart of the farm, so he is still afraid of these?
Seeing that he was bent on going his own way, Motak could only shrug his shoulders and go forward.
Next is procurement, the company in charge of Mexico has a supply department, and everything that Sunset Town is now purchasing is posted by the company.
Soon, various corn seedlings and white cherry seedlings were delivered.
Coincidentally, these seedlings come from MC Plant Breeding LLC, which is the supplier of ginseng seedlings.
It's a pity that there is no policy support this time, and the identity of the Maori is useless, the last time I bought ginseng, Atulu saved Wang Bo 35,000 yuan, and only spent less than 20,000 yuan to buy the ginseng back.
This shows how much the New Zealand government has given to the Maori people, who still live at the bottom of society.
The farm began to be built in full swing, and the ranch was not idle.
When Wang Bo invested in the construction of the slaughterhouse, he also invested in the construction of a small lanolin collection yard, which was attached to the slaughterhouse and opened two lanolin collection production lines.
Like white cherries, New Zealand's lanolin is as well-known around the world.
In particular, lanolin produced in the South Island is very popular because of its excellent quality, delicate material, lubrication, moisturizing, and very mild nature, and almost no one is allergic to it.
Many people think that lanolin is the fat extracted from the meat of lamb or the internal organs of the sheep's belly during the slaughtering process, which is completely wrong.
Lanolin is refined from natural wool, so the cleaner and cleaner the wool, the higher the oil content, the easier it is to extract, and the higher the quality of the extraction.
Sunset has amassed a lot of sheep wool over the past few years, and now it's spring, and it's a good time to shave sheep twice a year, and it's also a good time to refine lanolin fat.
The previous wool was digested from the town, and the wool from Sunset Ranch was exceptionally clean, and the wool sweaters were beautiful and warm.
Since last year, Wang Bo has been interested in expanding the sheep population, so this spring, there is enough wool to refine the sheep fat.
Sadly, the purpose of Lao Wang's expansion of the sheep population was to extract sheep fat, and he did not expect his wool to be so popular that it even became a gift for tourists to buy the country to be held.
He couldn't waste the sheep fat extraction production line he had invested in, which cost him 500,000 yuan, so he expanded the scale of sheep production.
