Chapter 151 May the barren land become undulating
“…In just a few years, Jiahe Group has turned the vast Gobi desert into 200,000 acres of artificial grassland.”
“ Cultivated land is the foundation for us to secure my country's rice bowl and realize the sustainable development of the Chinese nation.
However, at present, the problem of "innate deficiencies" and "acquired debts" of cultivated land in our country is still prominent. br>
Saline-alkali land is an important strategic reserve resource for the expansion, quality and efficiency of cultivated land. How to turn it from barren to fertile soil?
Faced with the problems of high cost and difficulty in maintenance of saline-alkali land, Jiahe Group adopted the perspective of "planting for the right site" and cultivated Alfalfa No. 1. Today, the name of "salt-eating plant" is resounding throughout China.
The wind is rising, the sails are hanging, and the drums are urging people.
Recently, the Ministry of Agriculture took the lead in organizing saline-alkali land improvement projects in Dongying of Shandong Province, Wuyuan of Mongolia Province, Cixi of Zhejiang Province, and Yancheng of Suzhou Province.
The degradation of cultivated land and the formation of saline-alkali land are the accumulation of time and space, and a mixture of natural and artificial factors.
Therefore, the protection and improvement of cultivated land quality must be a tough and protracted battle. It requires the coordinated assistance of the government, enterprises, and scientific research institutions to develop greater production capacity in the future.
Cultivated land is like gold. We must cherish every inch of cultivated land as we cherish our eyes, so that every inch of cultivated land becomes a cornucopia and every ridge of cultivated land becomes fertile soil for a good harvest. ”
The host’s impassioned voice spread throughout thousands of households in front of the TV, and his sonorous and powerful tone constantly aroused everyone’s emotions.
In conjunction with the aerial photography constantly coming from the TV The strong contrast in the picture, the desolate Gobi Desert and the vibrant grassland, the barren land and the ecological oasis, creates a great visual impact.
Tian Cheng Fang, trees become forests, connected canals, roads connect, drought energy. Irrigation, waterlogging can be drained, and salt can be reduced. Cattle and sheep, agricultural machinery, factories, cars, and the most simple smiles of farmers born and raised in the northwest.
The sleeping earth is awakened by the power of plants, and the dry and barren soil is occupied by neat patches of pasture.
The modern artificial grassland has been established in the desert Gobi, and gradually changed the inherent color here.
No one is not moved by it.
Since its launch in 1978, CCTV News has accompanied the Chinese people for many years regardless of rain or shine.
The audience is extremely broad.
At this moment, the vast group of people of all ages, regions, and educational levels in front of the TV are all staring at the picture on the screen.
For fear of missing every detail.
Some old people who have had experience in reclaiming wasteland and old workers on farms all have their hearts beating faster and even moved to tears.
“There is one wind every year, blowing from spring to winter, there are no birds in the sky, and there is no grass on the ground...” The older generation recalled the scene of desertification eroding the northwest region.
On TV, the northwest is covered with green plains and barren mountains covered with brocade, which made me cry.
"We fought on the frontier of the motherland, melting thousands of years of frost with our chests. Where we walked, the wasteland set off black waves..."
Ice City, 71-year-old Luo Shuqing sang softly In this song, she recalls the power of youth.
50 years ago, Luo Shuqing came to the Gongqing Farm in northern Black Province to reclaim wasteland as a member of the Youth Volunteer Reclamation Team. There were more than 2,600 young people like her.
Times have changed and things have changed.
Time will not return to the origin of history, but retracing history and continuing history can make people feel the passion of youth back then.
She remembered what the leader said when he came to inspect the wasteland, "The next time I come back, I want to hear chickens crowing, dogs biting, and children crying."
Now she sees the new century's wasteland development, modern equipment , with the same enthusiasm.
Agricultural science and technology workers in the northwest are also encouraged. The vast yellow-brown color unique to the Gobi Desert is an unmitigated imprint left by the desertification and semi-desert climate since ancient times.
But from Jiahe Group, they saw the possibility of success.
There are hundreds of species of saline-alkali plants in the northwest. The indigenous people on these saline-alkali lands are gifts from nature.
They have long been accustomed to the arid and barren environment in the Gobi Desert. They do not pick up soil or waste water. Now Jiahe Group has bred Alfalfa No. 1 from them.
They may not be able to!
Government and unit leaders, staff or keen entrepreneurs like Xu's father are more politically sensitive.
In recent years, grain output has been declining year after year, and the news has taken such a long time to introduce it. This is the country's preparation to promote it.
Many people are beginning to wonder how to participate in this feast!
Xu Xiaoxue once again revisited the aerial photos of the grassland, which was very interesting, especially with the wonderful micro-expressions of her old father.
Her heart was also full of passion.
Seeds are the chips of agriculture. It was the first time she felt the power of seeds so strongly.
One seed changes a world!
She looked at the young man on TV, with a simple face and a thin body, but when being interviewed by reporters, his energy was like his vibrant pasture.
Sharp and eye-catching!
Such a character seemed to exude charm and attract her at any time.
Xu's mother Ning Caijuan observed her daughter's every move and sighed slightly in her heart. Minjun was right, there was indeed a problem.
She looked at the youth information that appeared at the bottom of the screen, chairman of Jiahe, graduate student at Agricultural University, majoring in genetics and breeding, breeder of Alfalfa No. 1...
A series of titles. It had to be so dazzling that she couldn't remember it, but it still felt powerful.
Can the light snow stop him?
In a certain house in the capital, Su Guozhou looked at Guo Yang's talkative figure, with envy, jealousy, complaint and other complex emotions flashing through his eyes.
“I don’t believe this is a student that Weng Lixin can teach. He is really snoring like a chrysalis—picked it up.”
Weng Lixin from the Gannan grassland was full of joy, thinking, Jiahe wanted to set up a biological breeding laboratory, and he had to take advantage of the students.
In the news, Guo Yang spoke calmly when facing reporters’ questions. "The northwest is heavily salinized, has strong sunshine, drought and water shortage, coupled with geological and geographical conditions and environmental factors, it is not easy to 'survive in the cracks'."
"Water is the core issue in saline-alkali land improvement. In the past, the 'soil washing method' was usually used, and about 2000m of water was needed to improve one acre of land."
"But now Alfalfa No. 1 is put into use Afterwards, there is no need to wash the soil, and only 200m of irrigation water is needed every year, saving a lot of water resources.”
“At present, Jiahe’s team is still intensively researching and will continue to restore and rebuild the ecological environment in the desert area in the future. New plant varieties will be introduced in the fields of improving and utilizing salinized soil and restoring degraded grassland vegetation.”
“In addition, I often heard people complain that everything in the northwest is good, but there is no seafood.”
< br>
"You don't have to complain now. Jiahe will create an artificial sea in the northwest farthest from the ocean. I don't dare to say seafood, but the aquatic products management is enough."
With Guo Yang's final promise with a smile, this Domestic news segments that lasted more than 3 minutes came to an end.
Following news continues.
But many people can’t help but think of that contrasting picture over and over again, and start to think that all the domestic saline-alkali lands have been turned into fertile farmland.
Even deserts, Gobis, tidal flats...
In Heilongjiang Province, Xinjiang Province, Shandong Province, Zhejiang Province, Jiangsu Province... countless experts and scholars who are committed to the research of saline-alkali land also have clearer goals.
Thousands of acres of vegetables are grown on the deserted Gobi plains, melons and fruits grow in the saline-alkali depressions, and waves of fragrant rice and wheat grow on the salt-alkali flats on the coast...
Awaken the sleeping land, Turn the saline-alkali land into a river of rice!
Chinese people’s love for the land is deep in their blood. May the barren land become undulating!
The storm of saline-alkali land improvement is far from over.
Media outlets such as Farmers Daily and Science and Technology Daily followed up with reports.
It then spread to the Internet.
Jiahe Group appeared in the eyes of the general public for the first time
Melon-eating people from all over the country followed up one after another, constantly digging in and making comments, but most of the words were in appreciation.
But local netizens in the northwest were obviously more concerned about what Guo Yang said at the end.
They all left messages on the Internet,
"Mr. Guo, when can I eat seafood? I want to eat abalone."
"Salmon is okay too."
" Mr. Guo, I don’t have any requirements, just one thing. If it’s available on the seaside, it should be available in the northwest! It’s available in the northwest, but not on the seaside!”
“There’s no sea in the northwest.”
< br>
"I read it several times, thinking that Mr. Guo was talking about aquatic products, not seafood."
"Unswervingly support friends in the Bohai Sea, Yellow Sea, East China Sea, and South China Sea..."
"When you wake up, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai have become remote areas?"
Far away in Minqin's sand nest, Shahai farmers and herdsmen have been chasing the sun in the desert for two consecutive months, making the desert covered with Green and blue.
Lu Hanbin and Zhang Jing looked at the newspapers brought by the employees.
In the photo, the Alfalfa No. 1 is glowing slowly under the morning light, and the two of them look at each other and smile.
Zhang Jing touched the camera in his hand, "We will also have that day."
"The people in the desert are miserable, the people in the desert are tired, the sky is full of wind and sand, and there is no vegetation..." Lu Hanbin said He was talking about this long-standing folk song.
That was the past when not a blade of grass grew and the wind blew up the sand.
Through several years of continuous spreading of green from point to surface, Shahai Agriculture and Animal Husbandry has formed a green sand-blocking protective belt hundreds of kilometers long on the edge of the desert.
Like a green scarf, the Tengger Desert is firmly locked.
......
Compared with the storm outside, Jiahe Group is too calm inside.
At first, the employees were also happy.
But as the boss Guo Yang dived into the breeding laboratory, the excitement suddenly slowed down.
The boss is working hard like this, do you really have to wait for the boss to support you?
Jiahe is on the rise. If we don’t fight now, we’ll wait until later.
Besides, the subsidiaries have quite a lot of business.
The hot sales of Tianyu No. 1 are still continuing, Fengkai Agricultural Machinery is even more busy, Alfalfa Farming and Animal Husbandry is not too generous, and Quanwang Biology seems to be holding back its big move again.
The only one that is slightly more relaxed and comfortable may be Jingcheng Shiguang Company.
But only relatively speaking, Yang Cheng received instructions from Guo Yangxin again.
Buying a house, buying stocks, and investing in companies all seem to be normal, and Wei Guang has been doing it.
But can drones be used in agriculture?
