Eighty agricultural cooperatives were quickly established with the spur of Homo sapiens, and soon more than 30,000 farmers were involved, and the number is growing.

The participation of these farmers has brought 270,000 acres of mountainous land, 63,000 acres of paddy fields, 28,000 acres of dry fields, and 5,436 acres of fish ponds to Haitian Agriculture.

Of course, land, these are just small things.

You must know that the Fernando family and the Lopez family are the real big landlords.

For example, the Lopez family's home base of Panay Island has a huge plantation area of 1,736 square kilometers, which is equivalent to about one-seventh of the entire area of Panay Island.

The Fernando family's plantation in southern Luzon also covers an area of about 2,245 square kilometers.

The plantations and other agricultural lands controlled by the two families throughout Luzon totaled 5,571 square kilometers, equivalent to one-fiftieth of the total area of Luzon.

Not to mention the small families and small farmers attached to their family.

Naturally, Haitian Agriculture will not let go of such a large piece of land.

On the island of Panay at this time.

Zhang Wei, led by the Lopez family's local leaders, inspected the second-largest island in Luzon with rice fields and sugar cane.

At present, the total rice production in Luzon is about 17 million tons, and the rice self-sufficiency rate is only 79%.

In addition, there are about 10 million tons of corn.

Based on Luzon's population of 102 million, the total output of 27 million tons of grain is equivalent to about 260 kilograms per capita.

The problem is that Luzon is the staple food of rice, and some wheat flour is eaten, while corn is exported.

Luzon produces about 27 million tons of grain annually, exports about 20 million tons of grain, and imports about 800~9 million tons of grain.

It's very embarrassing.

Even with the introduction of hybrid rice from China, Luzon was still unable to be self-sufficient in grain, and the core reason was that the big landlords and big businessmen were unwilling to increase the rice cultivation area, and they preferred to grow corn that the Luzon people did not eat.

Then these guys and ABCD should cooperate with each other, import cheap rice and wheat flour, and sell it to city dwellers at a high price to make a high profit.

As for food security, what does this concern to big landlords and big businessmen?

On the contrary, they wish for a daily food crisis, which is an opportunity to drive up prices.

Previously, the Fernando family and the Lopez family were also members of this comprador landlord system.

It's just that now Homo sapiens has taken over the inheritance of these two families, and if it's the same as before, it can only be used as a dog for America.

Li Qingye often lamented that he was not cold-blooded and cruel enough, and he seemed out of place in this world.

But why should he take the initiative to adapt to the world?

Why not the world to adapt itself?

As long as the strength is strong enough, the world will revolve around itself.

At present, a series of actions of Haitian agriculture are aimed at improving Luzon's grain self-sufficiency rate and establishing its own system.

The arable land of Panay Island is very large, but the area under rice cultivation is lower than that of sugarcane, mainly because sugarcane is profitable enough.

"Kas, how many rice fields and sugar cane fields are in our land on Pana Nai, apart from the mountain plantations?" Zhang Wei wears a straw hat and looks at the endless paddy fields in front of him.

Cass Lopez produced a document: "82,731 hectares of sugarcane fields and 41,108 hectares of rice fields. ”

Zhang Wei shook his head: "It's too little, the rice area is too small, cut down 40,000 hectares of sugarcane fields and plant hybrid rice instead." ”

"Uh......" Cass swallowed his throat and then reminded: "General manager, the income from rice is too low, if the planting area is increased, the market price may be lower this year, and the company may lose money." ”

"What about losses? We can afford to lose, and you think sugar cane is a big deal? Zhang Wei scoffed.

As the general manager of Haitian Agriculture, he knows that with the expansion of Haitian area and the diversification of genetically modified unicorn vegetables, there are now genetically modified unicorn vegetables rich in sucrose.

If it weren't for the sudden elimination of sugarcane, it would have a fierce ripple effect in the market, and he wanted to convert all the remaining 40,000 hectares of sugarcane fields into rice fields.

At present, cooperatives, plantations, and cultivated land suitable for growing rice have been replanted with a large number of hybrid rice, and the rice planting area is planned to reach 300,000 hectares, and it is planned to plant two crops.

It is expected to produce 2 million tons of rice this year, and then purchase some rice and corn from farmers to stabilize grain prices in the control areas.

As for whether ABCD will fight a price war.

With the urine nature of these guys, there is a high probability that they will deliberately dump at a low price, with the intention of destroying the rice industry of Haitian Agriculture.

It's just that Zhang Wei is not afraid, because Haitian Agriculture can afford to lose, and it is a big deal to make up for it from other industries, such as the recent transfer of the eel industry by the head office to Haitian Agriculture.

At this time, the company was only responsible for technology research and development, process improvement, and the production of key raw materials.

For example, the eel sex hormone in the eel industry, this is a link that only the headquarters of Homo sapiens has mastered, and the subsidiary is not qualified to get involved.

In the face of Zhang Wei's strength, Cass could only agree to come down.

Zhang Wei did not leave Panay Island immediately, because he still needed to take a boat from Panay Island to the Cuyo Islands in the waters west of Panay Island.

The Cuyo archipelago is more than 90 kilometers away from Panay Island, and the land area is not large, but the shallow sea area is as high as 10,000 square kilometers.

This small archipelago is also the sphere of influence of the Lopez family, and Cass took Zhang Wei and his party to the main island of this archipelago - Cuyo Island.

The professionals who came along were also testing the salinity, water temperature, water depth, and coral reef coverage of the surrounding waters.

The island's mayor, Mingkai Lopez, briefed Zhang Wei on the situation in the Cuyo Islands.

"Are the hydrological conditions here up to the mark?" Zhang Wei asked the marine aquaculture experts who came with him.

The other party nodded: "In line with the breeding conditions of unicorn vegetables, as long as you avoid a part of the coral reef sea area, you can build a floating island-type sea field here." ”

The floating island-type sea fields planned by Haitian Agriculture are indeed fixed floating islands in areas where the sea depth does not exceed 20 meters.

As for how to build, this is to use the coral cement prepared for the Aoba Group, a part of the specially prepared coral cement, which can quickly condense in seawater, and is extremely resistant to salinity and seawater corrosion.

At present, Coral Building Materials has secretly transformed a cement plant into a production base of coral cement, with an annual output of about 2.4 million tons of coral cement.

After evaluating the information in hand, marine aquaculture experts reported to Zhang Wei: "According to my estimates, the area suitable for transformation in the entire Cuyo Islands is about 800~1,000 square kilometers. ”

Zhang Wei thought about it for a while, and then ordered: "Then draw a sea area as an experimental field!" The area is about 50 hectares, and Researcher Chen, you are in charge of this project here. ”

"No problem."

This project is of an experimental nature, after all, there are still many coastal tidal flats and saline-alkali land, and there is no need to enter the shallow sea all at once.

The sea fields in the shallow sea, and even the sea fields in the deep sea, in fact, have technical reserves, which will definitely be used in the future.

In addition to arranging a Haitian experimental project in the Cuyo Islands, Zhang Wei also asked the local area to build a garbage recycling station and a gas distribution station, which was not commissioned by Haitian Agriculture, but by Emerald Energy.

As a small archipelago with a small population and backward development, the population is only about 27,000, and basic services such as electricity and water supply are basically zero.

But in the future, once a large area of shallow sea fields can be built, then the economy here will definitely take off, and the hidden jade energy and coral construction are ready to come and seize the opportunity.
