Chapter 202: Request
The wheat grown here is a little far apart from each other, so it looks a little sparse, and just like that, the ears of this wheat are still so short.
I wonder what the wheat will look like according to the spacing of the clusters of modern wheat?
Zhang Xiaoxue knew that in addition to the lack of fertility in the ground, it must also be because of the problem of seeds.
"The potatoes I'm talking about are the shredded potatoes we have eaten, which can be used as a staple food and can be eaten as a vegetable, and the yield is very high.
I planted some potatoes in my backyard, and now it seems to be growing well, and the yield at the time of harvest is indispensable, and an acre of land can reach about 1,000 catties.
In addition, the corn seeds I want to plant are the best seeds from my master's farm, and I think that even if they are planted on newly cultivated wasteland, the final yield will not be lower than that of the current fertile land, and there will be more.
Brother Ze, do you know what our corn yield is per acre?"
Yu Wenze listened to Zhang Xiaoxue's explanation, and was a little surprised, potatoes were so high-yielding, as far as he knew, none of the crops planted by farmers had such a high yield.
If this potato can be popularized throughout the country, will the farmers still have such a thing as not having enough to eat?
In addition, in one of the pieces of information revealed by Zhang Xiaoxue, Yu Wenze heard that the corn that Zhang Xiaoxue was going to plant turned out to be the corn seeds in her immortal master's farm, and Zhang Xiaoxue said that the yield was very high.
Yu Wenze was also convinced of Zhang Xiaoxue's high corn yield, how could the corn planted by the immortals be the same as the corn planted by mortals like them.
Zhang Xiaoxue's family is because there is not much land to plant this kind of good corn seeds, and can only be on the newly reclaimed wasteland, so she said that the yield is not lower than the corn planted in the good land now, if it is planted in the good land at the beginning, I don't know what the final yield of corn will be?
I don't know if Zhang Xiaoxue will be able to use the corn and potatoes she harvested as improved seeds to promote them in the country.
Thinking of this, Yu Wenze thought, it is better to consult Zhang Xiaoxue's opinion now, and when Zhang Xiaoxue harvests the corn and potatoes, if the yield is really as high as she said, Yu Wenze thinks that she still has to buy these corn and potatoes harvested by her family, and use them as good seeds for the people of the Department of Agriculture to cultivate again.
Then after the seeds are more, they will be distributed to the common people to plant, so that he thinks that the farmers in the fiefdom should have a bumper harvest year, not only the crops planted by the farmers will be high, they will be able to store more grain, and when the tax is collected, the tax grain will be correspondingly more, and the grain depot will be more full.
"When I went to inspect the corn land here, I asked the old farmers, and they said that when the year is good, an acre of land can reach about 400 catties.
If the year is not good, it is generally 300 catties, I don't know how many catties of corn can be harvested in the corn on your master's farm?"
Yu Wenze first answered Zhang Xiaoxue's question about the yield of corn per mu here, and then asked.
"Is the yield of corn so low? I haven't asked my father and mother about the corn yield on my master's farm, and the yield of one mu of land should reach about 1,000 catties. ”
Zhang Xiaoxue remembered that in modern corn, it seems that it can reach more than 1,000 catties when the yield is high, and she believes that the corn seeds produced on the farm will definitely not have a low yield, so she said.
"With such a high yield, it's great that you can get corn seeds from your master's farm, I think like you said, even if it is planted on newly cultivated wasteland, the minimum yield is 500 catties.
I have a reluctant request, and I want you to agree, just to wait for you to harvest the corn and potatoes in the field, can you sell them all to me, except for some seeds that you keep for yourself?
Of course, I will add 20% to the purchase price according to the highest price of corn and potato seeds now.
I want to take it to the Department of Agriculture and let them cultivate these good seeds, and if they breed good seeds, I want to distribute some to the farmers, so that the farmers in the territory will not be yellow and thin, and they will not have enough to eat.
In the future, all the corn and potato seeds in our country will become good seeds, and I think there will be no more farmers in our country who do not have enough to eat. ”
After Yu Wenze finished speaking, he looked at Zhang Xiaoxue, hoping that she would be able to agree to his requests.
Zhang Xiaoxue originally planned that after the corn and potatoes produced on her wasteland were harvested, the people in the village would definitely see such a high yield.
At that time, she will use these harvested corn and potatoes as seeds, and then all the people in their village will be planted with this kind of high-yield corn and potatoes, and the people in their village will no longer have the problem of not having enough to eat.
Then the people in their village will spread the corn and potatoes they have grown, and slowly, the corn and potato seeds in this country will gradually become such good seeds.
It's not that Zhang Xiaoxue is great, she just wants the country to be richer and stronger, so that she won't be bullied by other countries.
In her heart, Zhang Xiaoxue is really afraid of a war in this country, and even more afraid that this country will become a defeated country at that time, and the consequences are really unimaginable.
Yu Wenze now offered to buy the corn and potatoes she would grow in the future, and cultivate them as good seeds, and then distribute them to farmers for planting, which would be the best.
And listening to what Yu Wenze said, there is also an official place like the Department of Agriculture, which is in charge of agriculture, and he himself will plant corn and potatoes on wasteland at that time, and the yield will definitely not be as high as that of planting on good ground.
She might as well take out some corn and potato seeds and give them directly to Yu Wenze, so that he can arrange for people from the Department of Agriculture to plant them now, so that more improved seeds will be produced, and the promotion of improved seeds will be faster.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaoxue opened her mouth and said to Yu Wenze: "Brother Ze, of course I agree with what you said, if the corn and potatoes grown on the wasteland are really as high as I thought, I will keep the corn and potatoes grown on the wasteland for you."
In addition, Brother Ze, you said that you should treat these as good seeds and give them to the people of the Department of Agriculture to cultivate, and I will simply give you some corn and potato seeds now.
You can arrange for someone from the Department of Agriculture to plant now, and you don't have to wait for my wasteland to plant and delay it for another year. "To find this site, please search for "6 Mao" or enter the URL:.
