Chapter 62: Technical Exchange
Come home in the evening.
Mom really did it, stared at Ye Mo and asked him to call......
Ye Mo held the mobile phone, hesitated, but still called the phone.
Ye Mo originally thought that he would not be nervous, but when he held the phone, he was apprehensive, and the phone was connected: "Hey? ”
"Huh?"
"Have you eaten?" Ye Mo said.
Lin Xiaomian said in a sweet voice: "I just had dinner, what about you." ”
"Me too."
"Oh."
Ye Mo didn't know what to say, his mind went blank all of a sudden: "That, that...... What are you doing? ”
"Feed the crayfish."
"Crayfish?"
"Well, feed the crayfish." Lin Xiaomian said, "What about you? ”
"Take a walk outside." Ye Mo said: "I also just had dinner, walking outside and digesting. Do you have crayfish at home? ”
"Hmm."
"How many crayfish are raised."
"More than four acres, rice field crayfish."
"What do lobsters eat?"
"Feed."
"How much can you produce lobsters in a mu of lobsters in a paddy field?"
"I don't know, the first year I raised lobsters in the rice fields. In the past, it was a special shrimp pond, but this year it is allowed to plant rice, and it is polyculture of rice and shrimp. Lin Xiaomian's voice today was exceptionally soft.
"Can you eat the crayfish now?" Ye Mo said. He couldn't find any other topics, so he could only talk about them awkwardly.
"I can eat it. But now the crayfish are small and don't have much meat. In August, the crayfish will be fatter......"
"Your feet don't hurt anymore, do they?"
"The swelling is gone, and it doesn't hurt anymore." Lin Xiaomian said. It's still a little sore when walking, and it won't get better so quickly.
We chatted about various topics for half an hour, and then when we got home, we took a shower...... Go to bed.
The next day, I had breakfast.
"Uncle, second uncle...... Uncle Liu, Uncle Qian ...... "There are 11 people who came to help today. 7 males, 4 females......
There are also villagers who come to fetch firewood.
Before, it was said that Changzhu Village water and electricity, three links.
There are running water pipes, but they are only for irrigation purposes and cannot be directly consumed.
Most of the families in Changzhu Village dig wells. Most of them have one well for two or three families, and if they live in remote areas, they have one well for each family.
Electricity, every household is connected.
As for gas, there are gas pipes in the village, but not every household has gas installed.
Many local families do not use natural gas, and use firewood stoves and mobile stoves at home.
In Changzhu Village, there are many people who work in the family. People move around a lot......
Every household has a mobile stove with a pot on it. The kind of stove that can be moved can be said to be available in every household here......
There is a lot of movement between neighbors, and it is common to see many people gathering together to eat around the mobile stove.
Ye Mo cut down the shrubs, as well as hundreds of acres of mango trees before, and the firewood was cut back by the villagers to make firewood.
Ye Mo's parents also packed up some firewood for the house.
Roasting chicken, stewing meat, and even stir-frying vegetables in a wood-fired pot is better than making it with natural gas.
One morning, dozens of acres of land were cleaned up.
Ye Ran went out to buy vegetables after ten o'clock, and then went home to cook.
At noon, everyone sat together and ate.
"Ye Mo, how much does it cost to get a sprinkler irrigation system?" Yun Xiuzhi asked.
"More than 1,000 yuan per acre." Ye Mo said.
"Water pipes and sprinklers, bought online?" Niu Yougui asked.
"Hmm. Buying water pipes and sprinklers online and setting them up yourself is not considered manual...... 1 acre down, about 1200 yuan. ”
"My family has 9 acres of pomegranate orchards, on the slopes of a big mountain, I don't know if I can get this irrigation system." Niu Yougui said.
"Absolutely."
Ye Dad poured them beer and said, "For irrigation of large fruit trees, it is best to use drip irrigation." Drip irrigation is more water-efficient, and the effect is a little better than sprinkler irrigation. If you're going to irrigate your orchard, it's best to use drip irrigation. ”
The biggest benefit of using drip irrigation is that it saves water.
The irrigation water for the orchard here, although cheap, is 7 cents for 1 ton of water. But if every household uses sprinkler irrigation, the water in the Niujiaoling Reservoir will definitely not be enough.
The irrigation area of the Niujiaoling Reservoir is about 30,000 acres.
From the perspective of irrigation, drip irrigation has a better effect and can also do water and fertilizer management.
Ye Dad talked about the advantages and disadvantages of drip irrigation and sprinkler irrigation: "The area of sprinkler irrigation here in Ye Mo is only five or six hundred acres. Sprinkler irrigation is mainly used to raise grass. After that, more than 1,000 acres were all ...... with drip irrigation."
"We've heard before that it's not good to grow grass in the orchard, and you still keep grass here?" Qian Peng asked with doubts.
"There are pros and cons to planting grass in an orchard. See if the pros outweigh the disadvantages, or the disadvantages outweigh the pros. Let's just say that the land of U-Ming Orchard is relatively flat, there is no big steep slope, and the irrigation is convenient and there are small fruit trees, so you don't need to plant grass deliberately, but you need to hoe the orchard. If you plant grass, the grass will rob the fruit tree of nutrients...... But when the trees grow up, they can grow grass when they have a diameter of about 10 centimeters. ”
Ye Mo's father continued: "But the orchard on the hillside is better to plant grass. For example, the orchard on the hillside behind you has to plant grass. Grass planting and slope protection can prevent soil erosion, lock soil moisture, and reduce the number of irrigations. The grass planted in the hillside orchard is mainly white clover and alfalfa, which can not only lock water, prevent soil erosion, but also increase soil fertility to a certain extent. ”
Qian Peng said with a smile: "We have planted grass on the hillside before, but the grass grows so well that it feels like it has eaten a lot of fertilizer from us...... Then we saw that the other orchards were hoeing, and we killed the grass. ”
"On the other side of Dongmen Town, the flatter orchards usually don't need to be grassed. But in the orchard on the hillside, the technician asked us to plant grass in the orchard...... What I just said is also what the previous technician told us. Ye Dad said: "Isn't there a local technical station?" ”
"There is a technical station in town that has trained us before. However, I learned some skins, and I didn't go to the countryside to guide technicians. ”
"Most of the factors that depend on the management of high yields depend on the production of fruit trees. How to fertilize, how to prune...... Pruning fruit tree branches, that's a real technical job. A mango tree, with a good shape, can produce a much higher yield. "Dad Ye went to their mango orchard before and found a lot of problems.
It's not for nothing that local mango yields are low.
After eating, everyone continued to talk about the drip irrigation system for a while, and then they were ready to go back to rest.
Aunt Yun pulled Ye Mo aside and whispered, "Have you ever called Xiao Mian?" ”
"Hit."
"How do you feel about sleeping?" Aunt Yun, as a person who has come over, speaks very directly.
"It's good. Just ......"
Aunt Yun smiled and said, "Little girl, sometimes you will be duplicitous. Contact more, make an appointment to play when you have time, and slowly become familiar with it. ”
"Hey, okay." Ye Mo smiled and nodded.
"Big man, take the initiative." Aunt Yun pursed her lips and smiled.
"Hmm. Thank you, Aunt Yun......"
