Chapter 237 Doing something and not doing something

Seeing the greenhouse under construction, I learned that the farm will expand the greenhouse area to 200 acres this year, and signed a cooperation agreement with nearly 100 local farmers to help these poor farmers advance funds to build greenhouses, so that the planting area can reach 500 acres.

Although the planting area of 500 acres is still unable to ensure that the people of the province can eat fresh vegetables in winter. But the leaders who came to inspect were also a little surprised when they learned that it would cost thousands of yuan to build a greenhouse.

For today's people, a few thousand dollars may be a year's or even a year's income. It is indeed too risky for them to take such a big risk to engage in this greenhouse planting, and the consequences of loss are self-evident.

Thinking of this, the leader immediately asked: "By your farm, have you ever thought about recovering the cost?" ”

"Leader, in terms of the output income of the greenhouse used by the farm for experiments last year, as long as a greenhouse is properly managed, the cost can basically be recovered in one winter. In the case of greenhouses, they can be used for several years in the first year of construction.

Although among them, some problems may arise. However, in the agreements we have signed with farmers, we also promise to recycle the vegetables and vegetables grown by farmers. If it's the technical reasons of the farm, then the responsibility must be borne by us. ”

"You mean, farmers are also responsible?"

"Yes! It is said that it is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish. I also want to let the cooperative farmers know that there is no such thing as a reward for nothing. If you want to get rid of poverty, you have to work hard.

For this reason, when selecting cooperative farmers, we first consider their family situation. Under normal circumstances, farmers from poor families are given priority to cooperate, but it depends on their reputation in the village.

We will definitely not cooperate with the kind of farmers who are lazy and lazy. Although I don't care about the thousands of dollars in advance, if farmers want to truly get out of poverty, they must first work hard. If you don't work hard, how can you change the status quo? ”

In the matter of poverty alleviation, Mu Shanhe did not hide his true thoughts, and after listening to it, the leaders also felt very reasonable. Even on the way to inspect, Mu Shanhe told the leaders why he didn't continue to expand the scale this year.

"Leader, the vegetables grown in the greenhouse can actually be called out-of-season vegetables. From the time of harvesting to the time of transportation, there are many things that need to be paid attention to. After all, we have a very low temperature in winter.

Once the vegetables picked from the greenhouse cannot be preserved, frostbite and frostbite may occur at any time. If there are no accidents, the vegetables we grow in the later stage will definitely be sold to the farmers' markets in the province or city.

This means that there is a process in place, from picking to shipping to selling. And this year, I plan to clarify this process first and institutionalize it. From planting to collection, to storage and transportation.

Even later, we will grow the vegetables that urban residents need and love to buy according to the situation of farmers' markets in various places. In this way, it is possible to ensure that the vegetables grown will not be unsalable. ”

"At this stage, you don't have to worry about not being able to sell such vegetables in winter, right?"

"Now you really don't have to worry! But this year we planted 500 acres, what if next year it increases to 1,000 acres or even more? The most important thing is that when other cities, counties, towns and towns see that we grow vegetables to make money, will they follow?

Greenhouse planting is simple and not complicated, if a swarm of bees follow, this situation will inevitably happen. At least in my opinion, the vast majority of farmers will blindly follow the money-making projects to a certain extent. ”

Listening to Mu Shanhe's words, the leader also agreed: "Yes! This kind of blind obedience is actually the people's desire to get rich. However, this kind of planning or plan of yours is very rare, and I hope you can continue to maintain it. ”

"Thank you, leader! I was born and raised here, and I know what the advantages are and what the disadvantages are. Only by turning disadvantages into advantages, perhaps the villagers living here can become rich and well-off as soon as possible. ”

With the leaders of the inspection, listening to some words that came out of Mushanhe from time to time, they also felt that it was very reasonable. At the end of the inspection of the greenhouse, the leader was also very interested and visited the farm's breeding farm and the farmland that had been ploughed.

Taking the opportunity, the leader also asked: "I heard that the rice on your farm is currently exported abroad?" ”

"Yes! Because the rice grown on our farm is grown differently from other farmers. We do not use chemical fertilizers or pesticides, and we practice real intensive farming, so the quality of the rice we grow is very high.

However, the yield of rice grown in this way is not as high as that of rice grown by ordinary farmers. In a short period of time, I am afraid that this model will not be able to be promoted. On top of that, it's hard to manage things in a unified way. ”

"Isn't it okay to use a cooperation agreement with a greenhouse?"

"It's hard! From fertilisation to pest and disease management, we have accumulated a whole set of planting experience. If we work with farmers, it is difficult for us to keep an eye on the ground every day, and what if farmers secretly apply fertilizer to increase yields?

If they see rice suffering from pests and diseases, will they secretly apply pesticides? Once they did, we didn't find out right away. If there is a problem with the rice exported to foreign countries, the customer will pursue compensation. ”

"The rice you export still has to be tested? What is detected? ”

"Rice nutrients, pesticide residues and many other testing items. Only when the test results are in line with the supply contract we signed with the customer, our rice can be sold normally, otherwise it will be returned or even compensated. ”

"Ahh It's the first time I've heard of such strictness! ”

"Leader, we are paying more attention to production at the moment, but some wealthy people abroad have begun to pursue the quality of life and hope to eat healthier. The pollution-free green food standards formulated by foreign countries are derived from this. ”

"So, the watermelons you exported last year also meet this standard?"

"Yes! On our farm, it's hard to find fertilizers and pesticides. These things do help boost crop yields, but on our farm, they don't work. When we fertilize, it's all animal fertilizer from the farm. ”

It is clear that many people are coveting the rice and watermelons of Horseshoe Ridge Farm to earn foreign exchange by exporting, and hope to have the opportunity to learn about it. But now I heard Mu Shanhe say that there would be so many restrictions on exporting, and even compensation would be involved, and many people were instigated again.

In a short period of time, Mushanhe does not plan to promote all the ways and methods of planting rice and watermelons. Because it is difficult to control, one careless mistake is likely to outweigh the losses.

As for someone who wants to learn in the future, he will also explain to them how to grow pollution-free green food. The problem is that the rice and watermelons they grow must be unlikely to meet the standards of Horseshoe Ridge.

The reason is very simple, I am afraid that other farms and farmers will not be able to learn from this step of breeding. Because of the breeding stage, Mushanhe used the sacred soil of the mountain god space. And how could he promote such a rarity as the Divine Land at will?
