One Thousand Five Hundred and Sixty-Four, the Breakthrough Direction of Modern Agriculture

Thus, a contradiction arises.

That is, with the improvement of people's income in our country, people's requirements for the quality of life are also improving.

People want to consume more healthy agricultural products, but on the other hand, farmers in rural areas are faced with the problem of not earning money from farming, so they abandon their land and go to work in cities.

In this way, my country is unavoidable to import a large amount of agricultural products from all over the world every year to smooth the domestic deficit.

In order to balance the price of food in the world, we must also encourage the enthusiasm of farmers and let farmers let go of their hands and feet to cultivate.

But at the same time, we must ensure that the prices of crops cannot rise rapidly, after all, the basic materials for the national economy and people's livelihood are at stake at this time.

Therefore, a price range is set for grain purchases, which further reduces farmers' enthusiasm for farming.

In fact, Japan, South Korea and other countries have also encountered the same problem, but how did they solve it.

First of all, they set up an agricultural machinery, unified procurement and sales channels.

The second is that the state will give farmers a lot of subsidies to increase farmers' enthusiasm for farming.

The second is that people's agricultural machinery has the pricing power, and coupled with the influence of the propaganda's unique thinking, the price of local high-quality crops is not cheap.

One of the most typical examples is Wagyu beef and Korean beef.

Although a few are exaggerated, you have to say that these two products of modern agriculture have indeed brought benefits to farmers.

But this is not the case in our country.

A single pricing power can make people worry to death.

With the deepening of urbanization, in fact, some domestic scholars have proposed it.

There is no need for us to stick to the red line of 1.8 billion mu. In fact, we can completely let the market adjust.

In China, as long as the basic planting of staple grains is guaranteed every year, the state-owned grain depot can be harvested again every year.

It can stabilize international food prices. In fact, many of our land can be abandoned and it is nothing.

After all, with the development of our economy, we have the strength to get rid of the agricultural society completely.

Although saying this is a bit risky, Xiao Feng agrees with such a proposal.

The reason why he agrees with such a statement is indeed from another perspective.

That is the land in our country. Now it is really unbearable for cultivation, and it is really necessary to recuperate.

Although we have another 9.6 million square kilometers of land.

But in fact, we have very little arable land and very little fresh water resources.

Especially in recent decades, due to some previous wrong directions, many areas have been severely deforestation and the ecological environment has been severely damaged.

Therefore, the soil is deficient in nutrients, and the soil condition is very degraded.

For example, in Inner Mongolia, the problem of grassland degradation is caused by overstocking.

In addition, the land in the North China Plain, North Hebei Province, South Henan Province, Dongshan Province, and many other places have serious problems of hardening.

It is due to the over-cultivation of the land and the excessive use of chemical fertilizers year after year.

These lands really take years, even decades, to recuperate.

And if we go to Inter, Europe, and learn about their agriculture, we will be terrified of their agricultural potential.

Take the United States as an example. Today, the United States only uses half of the country's arable land, and its annual output can feed a quarter of the world's population.

That is to say, the agricultural output of the United States alone can feed two billion people a year!

This is still only half of the arable land that people use,

the results achieved.

So why do Americans never worry about eating meat, because it's not just that people can print dollars and rob the world.

In fact, the truth hidden under the hegemony is the super-developed agriculture.

And how did the Americans raise the soil?

A piece of land, after a few years of cultivation, will be surveyed by a professional agricultural company.

Once it is found that the land is not fertile enough, it will stop farming on this land, and then open up a new wasteland for farming.

What a luxury to be able to use the rotation farming system...

In addition, how do people maintain the mountains and forests?

How are their crop straws handled?

Do you know what the American wood chipper is used for?

Every year, the forest rangers in the mountain forest area will cut down all kinds of broken branches and dead trees, and then use the wood chipper to break them up.

Then spray the shredded wood into the forest, or where there is bare soil.

According to others, this is to protect the ecological environment and form a new ecological circle.

And we can also see in many other European and American countries, especially in the forest, there will be a lot of broken wood in many places.

And that's where the pieces of wood come from.

After this kind of broken wood is combined with the leaves and weeds in the forest, it can be turned into a biological fertilizer in a few years.

Americans attach great importance to these fertilizers, and no one is easily allowed to come and mine them.

The Japanese are more straightforward and import directly from H country.

That's right, it's imported in large quantities from our country...

As for straw, Americans don't directly burn it like our farmers.

Instead, it is smashed with a wood chipper, then mixed with cow dung collected from the cattle farm and put into a large open field for composting.

After fermentation, these fertilizers are re-sprinkled back into the soil.

And these lands where livestock are farmed, they burn a wave of weeds every year.

Then, tractors will be used to plough the burned land, and repeatedly stir the landfill.

This is how the Americans kept the land, a scene very common in the plains of the Midwest.

This is also the main reason for the unusually developed agriculture in the United States.

On the other hand, on our side, we do not talk about other regions, but only talk about the land in the Central Plains.

Many have been cultivated for thousands of years.

If this happened in the past, without the intervention of too many modern scientific methods, the common people would have nothing to do.

It can only be said that depending on the weather to eat, if the weather is good, you will charge more.

But once there is a flood or drought or something, the common people can only run away to beg for food.

But now with the emergence of various chemical fertilizers, ordinary people have made up for the deficit of hundreds of years in the past few decades.

It is true that the yield per mu has risen, but the soil fertility of the land has basically been exhausted.

Especially in the last two years, experts have said that burning straw will cause serious air pollution.

In this way, the common people have no way of raising the fertility of the land even at the last point.

In this way, in order to ensure the fertility of the land, a large amount of chemical fertilizers can only be applied.

And the food and vegetables grown in this way, to be honest, are far worse in terms of quality and taste.

So Xiao Feng actually agrees with the professor's statement that our land really needs to recuperate.

In any case, farmers are now entering the cities in large numbers to work, and the only ones left in the villages are the elderly and children.

These people generally only need to grow a little ration, and most of them do not want to grow too much land.

Because if you plant too much, you will not be tired, but the investment will also be large.

In the end, if there is a flood or hail or something, you will have to lose money in the end.

So it's better, let those lands be abandoned, and the livestock will be raised.

There is also land that cannot be left uncultivated. We can grow some staple food, which is enough to stabilize food prices.

As for vegetables and fruits, how to solve it?

That's easy to do!

Fruits are generally planted in the mountains, and the demand for land is not particularly large.

In terms of vegetables, it can be solved completely by the greenhouse of soilless cultivation.

As long as we build such large-scale soilless greenhouse farm bases on the edge of each city, we can solve the problem of eating vegetables all year round in the city.

Moreover, the vegetables here are more hygienic, clean, green and healthy because they do not use pesticides, paraquat, and large bulking agents.

In terms of taste, as long as Xiao Feng and the others can provide enough carbon dioxide supplements to allow crops to carry out sufficient photosynthesis, the taste is not a problem.

Because after research by foreign agricultural scientists, a large part of the taste of crops comes from the dry matter and sweetness of the crops themselves.

The dry matter of crops and the solution of sweetness are determined by the lack of carbon dioxide during the growth period and whether the photosynthesis is sufficient.

And now Xiao Feng wants to develop those carbon dioxide gas reservoirs containing helium, which is actually preparing for this aspect.

Take the provincial capital of his province, for example, a giant city with a population of eight million.

The daily consumption of vegetables is calculated in tonnage units.

If there are several large-scale agricultural planting bases around the city, the glass greenhouse should be buckled and a carbon dioxide adjustment supplement system should be installed.

The vegetables that are grown are enough to supply the consumption of the entire city.

And because of the large demand, even if the company takes the route of small profits but quick turnover, it is enough for the company to make money.

And this is exactly what Chen Jianfeng thought.

Therefore, after Xiao Feng and He Xiaojun read his business plan, they immediately asked Quanye Fund to inject 100 million yuan into his Shennong Agricultural Company.

He even helped him get a beach near the new sports town they developed.

Now several large greenhouses have been buckled up.

When it comes to modern agricultural planting, we are indeed lacking in high-precision technology.

But in these infrastructure areas, we are still very good.

For example, in the construction of the steel frame, glass, and construction of the greenhouse, we have very mature solutions from materials to design and construction.

And Chen Jianfeng himself, because he has been immersed in this field for many years, has a very good way of preparing nutrient solution.

You must know that the nutrient solutions for different crops are completely different.

At present, there are many nutrient solutions on the Internet, and the proportions of these nutrient solutions are similar.

However, in general, compared with the nutrient solution prepared by foreign companies, there is still a slight gap.

And Chen Jianfeng himself is very good at this. The nutrient solution he prepared can basically compete with the industry leader, Yamazaki of Japan.

There are even many areas where there is a slight win.
