Compared with the watermelons grown by the people in the forest area, the watermelons grown on the farm are obviously on the market earlier. The reason why the watermelon on the farm can be listed in advance is more because of the breeding time of the watermelon on the farm, which will be earlier than that of ordinary people.

Looking at the round and green watermelons in the field, Xu Siwen, who stayed on the farm and said that he was going to take a vacation, was also hungry. But Mu Shanhe said very directly that these watermelons have not yet reached the most hanging picking time, so he asked him to wait patiently for a few more days.

While the watermelons were not yet ripe, Mushanhe began to frequented the greenhouse vegetable greenhouse. Professors and students from the provincial agricultural school are now living in the farm's dormitory. They are also very satisfied with the accommodation provided by the farm.

What makes these teachers and students happiest is that the food on the farm is quite good. When the professor sent by the agricultural school learned about the farming mode of the farm, he was even more puzzled: "Why don't you use chemical fertilizer when you grow rice?" ”

In the face of the professor's inquiry, Mu Shanhe also said directly: "Applying chemical fertilizers and pesticides can indeed increase the yield of rice and even reduce insect pests." But the planting mode of the farm is a little different from that of ordinary farms.

Personally, I am more disgusted with the use of pesticides in crops, because I think that crops that have been sprayed with pesticides can indeed reduce pests and diseases. Correspondingly, pesticide residues can also be present in these crops. It's not a health risk, but I still don't like it.

If the professor is concerned, I believe that he should know that foreign countries have begun to implement and implement pollution-free green planting models. Although the yield of the crops grown in this way is low, the quality is more secure.

The rice grown on our farm can pass the most stringent green pollution-free testing for quality, and the quality and nutritional indicators are far better than similar rice. In fact, all the rice we grow is currently exported. ”

As soon as these words came out, the professor and the students who came to intern were stunned, and said directly: "The rice you grow is exported abroad? ”

"Yes! Although the number of exports last year was not large, it also reached more than 10 tons. This year's rice that has not yet been harvested, as long as it passes the customer's quality inspection, then the quantity exported this year may be even more. ”

"Then can I take the liberty of asking, how much pound do you sell for rice?"

For such an inquiry, Mu Shanhe hesitated for a moment and said, "This may not be easy to say!" It's not that I don't want to say it, but if I say it, it may cause some bad effects. After all, my cultivation model is quite unusual.

Nowadays, farmers and state farms grow rice, often in pursuit of high yields. My retro planting model will definitely not be able to be promoted on a large scale. It's not that I don't apply fertilizer at all, but I compost it all by myself.

You must have seen it before, and there are a lot of sika deer and roe deer on the farm, as well as a lot of poultry. The manure is collected and re-composted, and then topdressed with the accumulated manure depending on the rice growth. ”

At present, there must be a very big gap between the domestic rice price and the rice price exported by Mushanhe. To put it bluntly, one kilogram of rice exported by the farm can buy a bag in China.

If the export price is spread out, it is difficult to guarantee that some local people will follow suit. If you teach it then, it will be very troublesome to manage. If you don't teach, the farmers will definitely have opinions in their hearts. Therefore, some things are better kept secret for the time being.

Even in later generations, there are actually not many planting bases that can follow the farming model of the farm. In addition to exporting money to subsidize farm expenses, the rest of the crops grown on the farm are basically self-produced and sold.

In fact, the rice currently served in the farm's canteen is grown by the farm itself. That's why many people who have eaten a meal in the farm canteen will find the farm-steamed rice very fragrant. The reason for this is that the quality of the rice is better!

Due to the wooded area, snow starts to fall at the end of October every year. In September, the temperature starts to drop. In this case, the greenhouse vegetable planting should also start to raise seedlings to prepare for the later planting in advance.

Teachers and students invited from colleges and universities were naturally very surprised to see such a standardized greenhouse. But more often than not, they feel that what they have learned is finally put to use.

Especially when they came to the farm and learned that there was a corresponding living allowance, although the teachers and students felt a little embarrassed, they did not refuse the kindness of the farm. But when managing greenhouses, it is natural to be more careful.

So much so that Zhao Zhicheng also smiled and said: "Looking for these professional people to help us manage the greenhouse, we really found the right one." With their management, we can also save a lot of trouble. These people do know more about greenhouse planting than we do. ”

"That's for sure, people are also professional. It's just that the guys in charge of the greenhouse also have to spend more time learning from others. After all, they will come here this year, and they may not come next year, understand? ”

"Understood!"

A few days later, Mu Shanhe and Xu Siwen came to the watermelon field again, looked at the watermelon Mu Shanhe and said, "Lao Zhao, find a few baskets to come over, some watermelons can be picked." Although it can be slowed down, it doesn't hurt to pick it now. ”

"Why? Didn't you say before that you should wait until the watermelon tastes its best? ”

Facing Xu Siwen's suspicious expression, Mu Shanhe also said directly: "These watermelons picked now, you have to send them to foreign customers." Even if you take the air freight, and wait for the customer to receive the watermelon, I'm afraid it will take three to five days, right? ”

Seeing Xu Siwen nodding, Mu Shanhe continued: "In the past three or five days on the road, the watermelon has almost reached the best taste. If you pick it early, the sweetness of the watermelon is not enough, and it will even affect the taste, and it is the same if you pick it late. ”

With Mu Shanhe's explanation, Xu Siwen finally understood that there was so much attention to selling a watermelon. Fortunately, after being hungry for a long time, he finally had the opportunity to taste the watermelons cultivated on the farm again today.

Even the teachers and students who helped manage the greenhouse were surprised to taste such a sweet and delicious watermelon: "This watermelon feels very different from what we ate before." Could it be a new breed? ”

As a result, their teacher said very bluntly: "The varieties of these watermelons are no different from our common watermelon varieties." As for why the taste is so good, there may be a lot of reasons for their breeding and follow-up management. ”

"Teacher, I have taken a closer look during this time, and the way they grow and breed on this farm does seem to be a little different. However, the young boss seems to know how to farm and breed, no wonder he dares to open such a farm. ”

"Okay, eat your melons well, don't be too curious. After all, you're here for an internship! ”

Compared with these students, who always have irrepressible curiosity, older and more mature teachers know that there are some things that should not be inquired about. The boss dares to build such a big farm, how can he say that he has no confidence?

But it involves the secrets of people's cultivation and breeding, and if they venture to inquire, it will definitely be disgusting. Since they are invited to help manage or teach greenhouse planting, it is better to put their minds on the greenhouse!
