Zhou Jianshe hesitated: "Directly plant the grass that has grown? Like the pitch on the turf, I don't feel reliable! ”

Qin Wu opened his mouth and looked up and smiled, and also felt that what Luo Suwei said was a joke, and joked: "Old watch! Our farm has 20,000 acres of sandy land, and we don't need to sow grass seeds, which is so troublesome, and where do we find so many mature grasses, do we have to dig and transplant them everywhere, be careful of being told by the locals to destroy the vegetation! ”

"I'm just talking!" Luo Suwei held his mouth and said.

Nan Chengxian thought about it, but said unexpectedly: "In fact, the old grass is easy to find, because Satawang is a high-quality forage grass in the northwest, and it is a leguminous plant, which is very strong in nitrogen fixation, so many ranchers use it to improve soil quality in the early stage of establishing artificial grasslands, and some have planted it for a few years, and when the land becomes fertilized, they will change to other high-quality forage grasses with higher grass yield, such as alfalfa, red bean grass, Chaomu No. 1 barnyard valley and so on."

Subsequently, the rise of Nan Chengxian's theory began to explain the characteristics of the latter several forages.

Alfalfa is a perennial herbaceous plant of the leguminous alfalfa, native to Iran, with high grass yield, long service life, strong regeneration, rich nutrition and other characteristics, is the most widely distributed cultivated forage grass in the world today, known as the "king of forage".

Red bean grass is a perennial herbaceous plant of the leguminous red bean family, with strong sun resistance and drought resistance, high yield, complete and balanced nutrients, cattle and sheep can not eat swelling disease, known as "the queen of pasture".

"Satawang, alfalfa, red bean grass, they are all leguminous plants, very strong in biological nitrogen fixation, so they have the advantages of vigorous growth, rich nutrition, long service life, and improved soil quality, but to say that my personal favorite pasture is not the above three, but Chaomu No. 1 barnyard grass!" Nan Chengxian said with a haha.

Qiu Hao just listened to Nan Chengxian's introduction to the grass, leaning towards the red bean grass, seeing that Nan Chengxian's first choice was different, he wondered: "Why?"

"Because Chaomu No. 1 barnyard is a super adversity pioneer crop, it can not only produce grass to feed cattle and sheep, but also grow barnyard grains that can be eaten, the taste is better than rice, and the price is twice as expensive as rice!"

"It turned out to be a combination of grain and grass, no wonder you are optimistic about it, but it's nothing, because if corn and rice are not pesticides, it is also a type of grain and grass harvest, and the yield is also higher!"

"Alas, can not be compared like this, the main feature of Chaomu No. 1 is extremely resistant to drought and salinity, two thousand years when Chaoyang Shi suffered a major drought, corn and the like are extinct, but Chaomu No. 1 this forage crop, but can still produce more than 500 catties of barnyard per mu, and what is even more rare is that Chaomu No. 1 barnyard is a perennial plant that relies on sin reproduction, not as cumbersome as planting corn and rice, which also makes me more optimistic about it!"

Several people looked at each other, Zhou Jianjian's eyes flashed, and he said suspiciously: "Such a bull fork, could it be genetically modified, like... Mexican corn like that! ”

Nan Chengxian snorted: "What do you know, Mexican corn and Mexican genetically modified corn are two concepts, the full name of the former is actually Mexican corn grass, also known as Da Grass grass, which is not a genetically modified food crop, but it is just very close to corn." As for Chaomu No. 1 barnyard grain, it is a hybrid crop of barnyard and alkali grain, and it is the same as the bamboo rice made by the cross between rice and bamboo, it is not a genetically modified crop, and people can eat it with confidence! ”

Qiu Hao listened all the time, feeling that this pasture grass with both grain and grass was even more promising than upland rice, and asked: "Chengxian, do you want to plant this Chaomu No. 1 barnyard in the farm?"

"Ahem! No! Nan Chengxian said with a dry smile: "Chaomu No. 1 weed is just the grass I admire the most, if you want to say that the most suitable forage grass for the current situation of the farm, you have to recommend the legume satawang, and alfalfa and red bean grass, if their resistance to stress is improved, maybe it can also be!"

Qiu Hao nodded when he heard this, and said, "You said too fast just now, how can I find the mature grass?" He said that he didn't want to use seeds to sow pasture, but wanted to transplant it directly, and as long as the system was optimized, the transplanted grass should have no problem adapting.

Nan Chengxian was surprised, and instead of answering, he asked, "Mouse, does it really work?"

"It should work!"

Nan Chengxian got a positive answer, knowing that the other party's means didn't ask much, and said directly: "The old grass is easy to find, first of all, I went to inquire where there is artificial grass, and found it and said that I want to buy old grass, as long as the price is right, I believe they will sell it, and if you are lucky, you don't even need to spend money if you meet those who are sowing new grass!"

Qiu Hao felt that what Nan Chengxian said made sense, and said with a light smile: "Chengxian, how do you know so many things about pasture, when I was still there before, I didn't see you say this!"

"Heh, I used to just think about it, and most of it was only thought about after I arrived in the new province!" Nan Chengxian scratched his head and said.

Qiu Hao didn't think much about it, patted Nan Chengxian on the shoulder, and said solemnly: "Chengxian, there is a difficult task entrusted to you now, that is, to collect enough pasture grass!"

"Me? Isn't it, the person who said he wanted to plant flowers and plants before was an old cousin, why did he end up being me? Nan Chengxian suddenly said with a bitter face, don't look at him and say that the old grass is easy to find, in fact, the specific needs to be investigated first, and it is likely that he will have to go through many grasslands before he can finally complete the task.

Qiu Hao smiled and comforted: "Because among us, you know the most about pasture!" Don't be afraid of trouble, Xinxing Province is one of the four major pastoral areas in China, there are many artificial grasslands, maybe as long as you send a message, there will be grassland owners to contact you! ”

Nan Chengxian was embarrassed and said: "I hope that you don't run all over the new province, but how to set the purchase price of pasture grass and old grass, there seems to be no standard for this!"

"Allow you to act cheaply, and give you a suggestion, it seems that Satawan can also be used as plant green manure, so you can refer to the value of green manure and figure out the purchase price for yourself!"

Nan Chengxian accepted his fate, thinking that he had been bored in the hinterland of the desert during this time, and he had never visited many places in the new province, so going out to collect pasture grass and old grass was also considered tourism, so he smiled and said: "Go and go, I will follow the Lunmin Desert Highway, all the way to the north, and then go to the Tianshan Ranch at the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains to find opportunities, do any of you want to go, go out and shop together!"

"Me!" Luo Suwei immediately raised his hand and said, and everyone was not surprised, this person couldn't sit still.

Qiu Hao glanced at Nan Chengxian helplessly, this guy actually wanted to go to northern Xinjiang, he was going to take the opportunity to travel, in fact, there are a lot of grasslands in Luntai and Shaya counties that are closer, and they are closer to the desert, and their adaptability is better, but he didn't say anything in the end.

Nan Chengxian recruited a follower, and someone on the road also spoke, and said: "Mouse, I'm going to buy old grass, do you have any requirements, such as the year of pasture, when digging it out, how much of the root system will be retained?"

Qiu Hao smiled bitterly when he heard this: "I don't know how many years the grass can live, you can do it yourself, as for the root system, keep it as long as possible!"

Nan Chengxian sighed and said: "Under wild conditions, the grass can live for a long time, for example, the wild alfalfa grass can live for thirty years, and the artificial grassland should be renovated and replanted in seven or eight years, and the red bean grass and the satawang are similar, and I will try my best to ensure that the root system is more than half a meter, how about it?"

"Good!" Qiu Hao nodded in agreement, in fact, he didn't have this concept, so naturally Nan Chengxian acted cheaply, but he suddenly had an idea and said: "Chengxian, after you go, you can also search for other grasses, such as the Chaomu No. 1 weeds you just said, if you see it, you can also find a way to get some back!"

"I want other pastures... Why? ”

Not only Nan Chengxian, but Qin Wu and the others were also puzzled.

Qiu Hao explained: "It's not that the desert is too boring, we also have to find something to do, try to see if other pastures can be planted, it should be a relief from boredom!"

Luo Suwei also coaxed when he heard this: "Yes, what the mouse said is right, in fact, we all know that the mouse is different...... Ahem, we should be able to breed super grass, isn't that new Gu Yu going to cultivate a pioneer plant for sand control, let's compare her to her, it's very fulfilling! ”

Everyone smiled, and then Nan Chengxian said briskly: "No problem, I will try to collect other pastures!"
