Chapter 201: Cultivating New Breeds of Cattle
A group of people chatted and chatted to the edge of the gray cow herd, and Wynne saw the group coming over and urged the horses to meet them, and followed everyone to say hello.
Since Norman saw the herd, he hurriedly greeted Wynne, and urged the horse to get off the horse with a group of assistants to the side of the herd, and then looked at the cattle one by one.
Juan followed Thomas and Wynne together and chatted, watching Norman watch and sometimes follow the assistant behind him.
"It's so much fun to do research! Seeing the cow, it seems that even Wynne didn't bother to take care of it just now," Ju An said with a smile as he looked at Professor Norman and a group of people around a cow.
"Don't say it's them, Lawrence and I are very happy when we see this herd of cattle, and when you bring the big cow back," said Thomas, "I wondered all night that I was urging you to catch it." Look at your unhurried appearance I'm anxious, you don't understand the meaning of a good breed of cattle for the pasture, do you know the Wagyu beef, the Wagyu beef is the most expensive beef in the world, the perfect snowflake pattern, want to eat to book and the price is very high, so it is still in short supply, the export of Wagyu cattle breeds is strictly prohibited, the world's only Wagyu cattle farm outside the book is in California, every group of cattle listen to music and drink beer, and someone specially massages the cattle, a complete set of breeding techniques in strict accordance with the cultivation method of the book, The ranches raised in this way are very profitable."
Ju An knows that Wagyu beef is the most expensive beef in the world, but it is not very clear how to raise it, this guy listened to Thomas, damn! It's better than the life of my buddies in China, I eat and drink every day, and from time to time I make a little wine, and find someone to kill a chicken.
As for the most expensive wagyu beef in the world, Ju'an doesn't have to worry. Nima, when his gray cow can be sold, he will kick the little cow from the first position in the world, and the cattle produced in the space are comparable to the things cultivated by your gang, plus buddy here is raised by the descendants of the excellent space grass, and you can't compare to the horse and chicken, and you can't drink Moutai when you drink beer.
While chatting with Thomas, he watched Professor Norman and his gang watch the cows, and waited for almost half an hour before the gang finished reading.
"Ann! This new breed of cattle is at least very good in physique, and it must have produced a lot of meat, and I can't be sure of its meat quality yet, but after looking at it just now, I found a problem, that is, there are too many bulls in the herd, and there are actually seven or eight adult bulls among the dozens of cows," Professor Norman said to Juan as soon as he returned.
After hearing this, Ju An thought for a while: "At that time, we thought about breeding, and some of the bulls that were slightly worse were sent to the other herd for breeding."
Norman nodded after hearing this: "Your idea is good, but there are still too many bulls in this herd, at least half of them should be brushed off, and the other bulls are better than a few bulls just here, and the one you saw at first is very good."
After hearing this, Ju An thought about it and understood that Norman was referring to the big cow: "That cow only likes the cow next to him, and is not interested in the rest of the cows, which is also something that cannot be helped."
After hearing this, Norman thought for a moment and then suggested: "Then only four of the eight bulls can be left, and each cow should be recorded, and the existing herd should be roughly divided into four small herds, and then considering that breeding should avoid inbreeding, every mating must be recorded, and the resulting calves must be clearly lineaged, so that the herd can be healthier and stronger, at least for now, each head must be made a preliminary record."
Ju An was stunned when he heard this, this guy is really troublesome, every cow has to be recorded, and the calves born by breeding must also clarify the bloodline of the parents, this workload is too great, now dozens of cattle are a little better, and how much data will it take to breed to hundreds of heads.
Wynne, who was next to him, heard it and said, "Now I know that the cow is the mate of the cow, such as the bull, and he uses five cows to be the five." With that, he pointed out the five cows.
Ju An was surprised when he listened to it, this guy can actually recognize every cow, in Ju An's eyes, they are all cows, they all look similar, if there is a spot or something on the body, it is better to recognize a little, this flash of gray is really eye-catching.
After hearing this, Norman said to Juan: "I have decided to start my research and breeding this new breed here, and I hope to get your permission and help."
As soon as Ju An heard about the good thing, since talking to Thomas and a few guys, he felt that the benefits were greatly dropped, and he immediately nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "No problem, but the accommodation I can provide may be divided into two places, and a few people will live in the east cowboy's dormitory."
Norman listened and said, "It doesn't matter where you live, it's okay to make it simpler, I used to sleep in a tent for a few months when I was doing research, and I heard Leonard say that there is no spare space for equipment here, so I'm thinking about whether to put the tent up now." Also, in the beginning, I wanted this Mr. Wynne to help us."
Ju An looked at Huai En after hearing this, this guy was very happy, with a smile on his face, it is estimated that he can have the opportunity to follow a professor to make this native cowboy very happy, after all, he can learn a lot of things.
Ju An nodded and said, "No problem."
Then Ju An and a group of people returned to their residence, went into the house and invited a few people to sit down, Thomas helped prepare some drinks for a few people, and began to discuss the breeding of new cattle breeds.
Listening to the introduction of this Norman professor, not only Ju An, but also Thomas, the old cowboy who listened next to him, was full of admiration, looking at the factors to be taken into account in the breeding, what kind of body detection, and the selection of breeding cattle, his own gang of people all took into account the large shape of the cow and kept it for breeding, and the rest did not understand anything.
Ju An followed Thomas to accept the influence of experts, and immediately felt that his intelligence index had risen a lot, it turned out that breeding a new breed of cattle is really not an easy thing, for these people engaged in scientific research is not only to choose cattle crossbreeding, but also to consider what good genes are not stable and other factors such as inheritance, in short, it is very cumbersome, for cumbersome things, Ju An has never been very interested, The end result was a wave of his hand: the breeding and cultivation of the new TL grey breed was left to the good-looking Norman professor, and Thomas was in charge of following up.
As for Ju An himself, he couldn't come forward automatically, not to mention that it was enough to record the situation of the cattle at night, what to eat, what to feed, and so on. Where do you have this kung fu, buddy, and if you have that time, you might as well do something as important as breeding humans with Dinah.
After discussing all this, Professor Norman prepared to leave and return to the University of Montana to make preliminary preparations, and it is estimated that when he returns, he will become a permanent resident of the ranch like Leonard.
Waiting to send this group of professors and assistants outside, just in time to see the tiger head and the preserved eggs, Ju An smiled and pointed to the two cattle dogs and asked prominently: "How are the cattle dogs in my ranch, they are very smart."
Who knew that the Norman professor looked at the perfunctory look and immediately put on his face: "Looking at such a body is not bad, very tall, looking at the coat should be the offspring of the Caucasus and the rest of the big dogs, the Caucasian characteristics on the body account for a large proportion, but the snout is very short, the bite force should be very good, this is like bullfighting, if I guess correctly, it should be Caucasian blood, and bullfighting and some other big dogs are crossed."
After Ju An listened, he looked at the innocent tiger head and preserved eggs, these two guys are obviously purebred Chinese pastoral dogs, and finally they were raised into hybrid dogs by the space, which is sad and lamentable.
Looking at Norman's eyes waiting for his answer, Ju An immediately nodded in agreement: "Sure enough, I deal with animals, and I can see it at a glance, it is indeed very cheap when I buy it."
I can't argue with experts that this is a Chinese pastoral dog, it was put into the space to grow up so it looks like this, no wonder everyone is not surprised to see the dog in their ranch, but they think it is smart. It turned out that everyone thought it was a hybrid dog. That's fine, these guys don't have much to do with China.
Speaking of cheap, it is true, a Chinese pastoral dog is only ten or twenty yuan, of course, if you buy it in the countryside.
Watching the Norman professor leave in the car with a group of assistants with their buttocks smoking, Thomas continued to go back to his work on the ranch.
Ju An turned his head and returned to the house, who knew that not long after he sat down, he heard the mobile phone ringing, Ju An picked it up and looked, it turned out to be Wang Fan, and answered the phone: "Wang Fan, what's the matter?" ”。
"I can't call you if it's okay, this question is asked," Wang Fan said dissatisfiedly.
Ju An hurriedly laughed and laughed twice: "Of course you can, but when you have nothing to do, you guess that when you have nothing to do, you are looking at Cora and thinking about calling me?" ”。
Wang Fan coughed twice: "That's the case, didn't the training center in Montana you introduced sell horses last time, and it just so happened that my group of buddies who ran a horse farm together came from China." I'm going to go on a field trip in two days, and I'll want to take you with me when the time comes."
Ju An thought for a moment and said, "My horse is going to race for the first time in two days, and everyone will buy two bets to cheer for my horse." A few days ago, Hussen called and said that Billings had a horse race for a while, and wanted to send a naughty bag to feel off the track, and for the time being, he was a small participant, and even a professional jockey was not hired, so he let the little girl ride it for a lap.
