Chapter 357: A Great Harvest
(Thanks to the book friend for the encouragement of the industrious pants)
"Boss, such a scene is really gratifying to watch." Garcia said to Liu Yunxuan, who was watching the wheat harvest in the pasture with him.
After returning from Michelle's pasture, he received a report from Garcia that the problem of selling the wheat had not yet been solved, and that the harvest had to begin, and that the wheat in the pasture had reached the best standard in terms of filling and firmness, and that it would be time to lose weight if it continued to grow.
The planting area of more than 50,000 acres looks boundless, and Liu Yunxuan also wants to see such a big scene.
"Garcia, I'm tired of harvesting wheat these days, tell the kitchen to add some food to everyone." Liu Yunxuan looked at the combine harvesters side by side in the wheat field and said.
These combine harvesters are really good, cutting, threshing, separating, cleaning, and baling the wheat straw are completed at one time, and the plougher behind is also quickly leveling the land and waiting for the next planting.
When the harvest is fast, the cowboys are busy, with bales of wheat straw loaded and transported away, and bags of wheat loaded into trucks and sent to dry and returned to the warehouse.
In the past, the wheat was sold directly after drying, and it didn't take up a long barn at all, but this time it's a bit more troublesome, and the wheat may not be stored here for a long time.
"Mr. Bill, how are the wheat?" Liu Yunxuan asked Bill, an observer sent by the Wheat Association.
Andy's Ranch has always been a major producer of wheat in Montana, and the Wheat Association is also very concerned about this incident, and for a non-governmental organization like them, although it can't help, it needs to come and record some numbers.
"Mr. Andy, the quality of your wheat here is really good." Bill smiled and said, "We weighed ...... just now."
"And it's hard to believe that the wheat in your ranch is so full of grains that it can weigh nearly 8o pounds in one bushel. If you don't take into account the rest. These wheats can be of Class 1 quality. â
"With the quality of the wheat in your pasture, wait until the trouble is resolved. It will definitely sell for a very good price. â
The Wheat Association also receives an annual grant from Andy's Ranch, and Bill doesn't care if the wheat contains harmful substances, but they serve the wheat farmers.
But he was telling the truth, and the wheat was worthy of his evaluation, and it could be said that it was the largest batch of high-quality wheat he had ever seen.
It's not that I haven't seen high-quality wheat before, but the entire production area is also carefully selected, which is like this. Any cart of wheat is of the same good quality.
After hearing Bill's praise, Liu's father and Liu's mother, who came to watch together, also had a smile on their faces.
I had never grown wheat at home before, only corn and soybeans, and I didn't know much about the quality of wheat. But people are specialized in this, and now people say it's good, it's really good.
The cowboys are also very happy about their current work, they are all old people working in this ranch, and everyone knows what the quality of wheat in the pasture is.
Now that we have a bumper wheat harvest, it is a little difficult for the time being, but it is okay. It's only temporary, and after Shun LĂŹ gets through the difficulties, the boss will definitely give everyone a bonus. Life is really promising now.
"Garcia, grind some flour in the evening, and everyone can taste it and see how our wheat tastes." Liu Yunxuan said with a smile at Garcia.
He also had to know what his wheat was, and when the time came, he would just throw it to Professor Lille for testing, and the taste of the flour was also very important.
With good quality and good taste, you can sell it at a higher price in the future.
"Bill, how's the wheat selling this year?" Liu Yunxuan asked Bill again.
"This year's wheat production is not very good, almost 200 million bushels lower than expected." Bill sighed and said, "Last year's drought was too severe. And this year there are signs of drought again. â
"Not much, which should be good news for high-yielding wheat producing regions, which are now trading at over $1o a bushel. And there is a tendency to increase gradually. â
Liu Yunxuan also did not expect that the bad effects of last year's drought would continue until now. If this year continues, those farmers will be really hard.
But as Bill said, the reduced wheat yield is really good news, especially for a large area of growers like himself.
"Mr. Andy, these little animals in your ranch are so cute." Bill pointed to the animals playing on the ground that had been leveled after the harvest.
The little animals maintain their living habits in Michelle Ranch and love to wander around, and today they saw Liu Yunxuan and them coming here, so they followed.
These little ones can be regarded as having found a playground, how fast the harvester reaps, such a spacious place, whatever they want.
However, the baby elephant Horton was more depressed, its body was heavier, and the ground that had just been turned over was softer, but it was very difficult to make it walk.
The baby elephant Horton doesn't look big, but he is young, and he quickly adapted to life here after coming to Andy's Ranch, and he gets along well with these small animals, and he usually mixes together.
Now the baby elephant Horton is looking at Liu Yunxuan's side pitifully, waiting for the help of well-wishers.
Liu Yunxuan had no choice but to ask Garcia to find a few planks and pave a simple plank road, which rescued Horton.
"In the future, I will have a little heart, and I won't look at the situation, so I will make trouble with this." Liu Yunxuan patted the head of the baby elephant Horton and said.
It is estimated that it will be bullied and bullied now, and when it grows up, it is estimated that it will be exhausted to reach it, and it may grow into an elephant king.
The little elephant Horton seemed to understand Liu Yunxuan's reproach, and rubbed Liu Yunxuan's arm with his long nose.
"Oh my god, this big guy is so smart." Bill said with a sigh when he saw Horton's movements.
Now the more he felt that those who suspected that the products in Liu Yunxuan's ranch had bad substances, and when he came today, he saw these animals leisurely eating pasture.
If one or two are smart, it's accidental, but these little animals are so smart, it's inevitable. If there are really harmful substances, the animal's ability to cope with stress will be even worse, and it will be reflected in them early.
At dinner, everyone finally tasted the delicious wheat from the pasture. The rich wheat aroma lingers in the mouth.
This time, many types of wheat flour were ground out to make a variety of foods, which were eaten and praised by the people of the entire ranch.
In the past, the flour in the pasture was processed from the wheat grown by the pasture, and the taste was far less good than this one.
After enjoying a good meal, everyone was somewhat relieved to feel the high-quality harvest of wheat, but it gave everyone a lot of heart.
The planting area is large, even if there are many harvesters in the pasture, it is busy for nearly a week, which still has to work more than 12 hours a day to complete the harvest.
After the whole warehouse is counted, it is really a bumper harvest.
The weight of the 53,000 acres of wheat reached more than 75,000 tons.
There are two reasons for such high yields, one is that the average acre is harvested at more than 42 bushels, and the moisture content of wheat is very low, only 8%. The moisture content of normal wheat is generally more than 1o%.
"Boss, this is still the best quality wheat I've seen in my life, and it's also so much wheat." Garcia said as he looked at the pile of barns.
"yes, it's the first time I've seen so much food." Liu Yunxuan also said with a sigh.
In the past, there was so little land at home, and when planting corn, I could harvest more than 20,000 catties at most, which is really incomparable with the current wheat.
And with the rise in the price of wheat, the value of these wheats is not 20 million, but nearly 30 million. In the past, I always thought that animal husbandry was more profitable, and agriculture was not bad.
"Boss, now I'm waiting for Professor Lille to get their research results out soon." Garcia also said with a smile on his face.
"It's coming, it should be in the past three or two days." Liu Yunxuan said with a smile. (To be continued)
