Chang Shide pays attention to the contract signing rate every day. Although the progress reported from various places is very good, Chang Shide has not been dazzled by the "good situation". In fact, his goal for the first phase of the Tiandi Society in Qiongshan was not high: it was just to capture % of the "old land" in Qiongshan County. First, start a demonstration by mastering these lands.
He does not expect to be able to quickly gather a large amount of "old land" in Qiongshan. The farmers in Qiongshan are different from the sugarcane farmers in Leizhou. The latter are farmers under the market economy, are sensitive to the market, and require a lot of liquidity in their operations. Loans to support agricultural production rely much more on finance. The sugar industry portfolio can easily attract them to join through small low-interest loans. However, although the farmers in Qiongshan also rely on loans to a certain extent, their dependence is far less than that of the sugarcane farmers in Leizhou.
The best way to make them dependent on the market is to let farmers switch to cash crops. The biggest advantage of cash crops is that they require high agricultural technology and have good returns. For farmers who hope to see benefits quickly It's a good choice. Chang Shide plans to promote sugarcane cultivation among the contracted farmers of Tiandihui.
"The current situation is very good." Liu Xiang is very interested in the Tiandihui movement. He feels that the specific operations of the Committee of Agriculture this time are much gentler than the instructions. It has not achieved a large-scale movement-style "collectivization". Let's moisturize things silently.
Very much to his liking, "I think your goal can be improved, work harder to increase it to %." Liu Xiang said while looking at the progress chart in the Tiandihui office.
"Even if all the farmers in Qiongshan are willing to sign, I still don't want to accept it." Chang Shide looked at the progress chart, "The Great Leap Forward is bound to make mistakes."
Liu Xiang smiled and said: "What's the mistake? We are not engaging in collectivization that imposes a one-two formula..."
Chang Shide shook his head: "You can't make promises that you can't keep. This is the basic principle of administrative work. You don't object to this, do you?"
Liu Xiang nodded: "Even if you have to break your promise, you have to have a decent reason."
Chang Shide chuckled: "Let's not talk about special situations. According to our own definition, Tiandi Club is a business-oriented cooperative organization under the guidance and supervision of the Agricultural Committee. It is not a bureaucracy, but similar to a commercial organization. . But for farmers, Tiandihui is an official organization. In practice, they are right."
He continued: "In order to attract them to join the membership, since we do not use administrative means, we must use economic means. It is equivalent to writing a check, and of course we cannot write a bad check."
Chang Shide knew exactly how powerful the Tiandihui or the real Agricultural Committee of the Tiandihui was. Even though the Tiandihui system in Lingao has become relatively mature, it is still in a state of tension in terms of materials and personnel, especially the shortage of agricultural materials and agricultural technicians. Now the Agricultural Committee is not facing a temporary situation. High, but the entire Hainan Island, among which the Qiongbei counties and the Sanya region, which have the greatest potential for agricultural development, are the focus of development support from the Committee of Agriculture. The final result of issuing checks randomly is that it cannot guarantee that the promise will be fulfilled, which ultimately leads to breach of trust.
For this reason, apart from Lingao, the Tiandihui only carried out large-scale activities in the two major agricultural counties of Qiongshan and Wenchang. Ye Yuming originally expected that in 1631, at least 20% of the landed households would be covered by the rural cooperative system, but this was reduced to less than % due to the firm opposition of Wu Nanhai and others.
Wu Nanhai and Chang Shide had good reasons for their objections: there were no people, and there were not enough seeds, pesticides and fertilizers.
In order to make full use of limited manpower and material resources, forming the first mobile unit to carry out mobile mechanized farming is an important measure of the Committee of Agriculture: with a small amount of manpower and machinery, it can accomplish ten or even twenty times more than what can be accomplished by pure manpower. work to save the manpower of member farmers to the greatest extent. Otherwise, the minimum construction of basic farmland water conservancy is enough to drain all the energy of the customer farmers.
Only by saving the manpower of member farmers can they be interested or better able to participate in various activities organized by Tiandihui. For example, agricultural technology training is not enough to just rely on the casual service of Lingao's agricultural technicians. The team must also be built locally.
Chang Shide said: "We want to build an agricultural school in the city. You, the director of the county office, must give your strong support..."
Liu Xiang was overjoyed that the executive committee was finally willing to relent. When he first arrived in Qiongshan, he applied to run a school in Qiongshan but was ruthlessly rejected: "The time to run a school is not yet ripe." When he received the reply, he even cursed the bureaucracy for a while.
"Don't talk about agricultural schools, even if you want to open a university, I am willing to spend all my family's money to support it..." Liu Xiang patted his chest without hesitation.
"Hey, it's good to have your words." Chang Shide took out a cigar from the drawer, "Want one? The real Li Quan limited edition, I got it directly from Lao Wu's office and the coffee shop sells it these days ●Who is involved..."
"At most, it's rolled by the farmers on his farm. Do you really believe that it was rolled on a big tube? If so, I'm not interested in smoking anymore. Speaking of which, does Nanhai's doing this violate the monopoly law? I remember tobacco , salt and wine are all under the jurisdiction of the Monopoly Bureau."
"The Monopoly Bureau is just a brand now. Besides, it's not easy for Old Wu to get a license to sell tobacco and alcohol. In the end, he still serves the elders." Chang Shide didn't take it seriously and helped Liu Xiang click on it, " You have to fight for the running of the school. The executive committee will not object now. Four classes have just graduated from the Fangcaodi Agricultural Technology Accelerated Course, and it will be no problem to recruit 20 or 30 people. As for the veteran teacher Wan Lihui, they are also ready-made , he wants to do replanting here anyway, he just needs to work during the day and hold night classes at night. And there is Azi, I think she has some problems with math, but her Chinese is pretty good..."
Liu Xiang nodded understandingly: "No problem. No problem. The basic skills of the indigenous people are poor and they need literacy education first. Otherwise, they will not understand the lectures." He laughed and blew out a smoke ring.
Chang Shide nodded: "There are too few educated manpower. We must try our best to save all manpower and material resources for the sake of the Senate and the Executive Committee."
Then Chang Shide talked about several other ideas of the Agricultural Committee. The first is to establish a model: "Develop one and support several" demonstration farms. Specifically, an agricultural committee demonstration farm will be opened on "state-owned farmland" to conduct comprehensive agricultural demonstrations. At the same time, a number of farmers will be supported, similar to the support given to the Fu Fujia family in Lingao, to create a few models. Likewise, we need to build a model village for rural cooperative medical care.
This is policy-wise. In terms of material, the Committee of Agriculture reached an agreement after consultation with the Planning Institute, which was actually a matter of bargaining. A small agricultural machinery station was set up in Qiongshan with part of the personnel and equipment of the First Marine Mobile Wing as the backbone to serve Qiongshan's agriculture; the second step was to build a fertilizer and pesticide factory in the county.
At present, most of the pesticides widely used by Tiandihui in practice are soil pesticides. Native pesticides are generally prepared on site for on-site use and basically have no preservation properties. Therefore, it is completely impossible to prepare it in Lingao and then transport it to Qiongshan. To use it, you must set up a local factory, collect a certain amount of raw materials in advance, and prepare it for use at any time.
"... As for fertilizers, how much nitrogen fertilizer can we supply to counties just by relying on our ammonia industry? It's not enough for our own use," Chang Shide said.
"Are you going to build an ammonia plant here?" Liu Xiang became excited.
"Wherever, the coal from Jiazi Coal Mine is directly processed." Chang Shide said that the coal from Jiazi Coal Mine has a high humus content and can become a good fertilizer with a little processing. As for phosphate fertilizer, the Planning Institute has made plans to allocate part of the phosphate rock shipped from Dongsha and Sanya to Qiongshan every month, and process it directly after unloading in Qiongshan.
Liu Xiang thought this was a good thing. Tang Menglong originally wanted to find more outlets for his coal. If he set up a fertilizer factory locally, it would save a lot of transportation costs.
A large amount of coal from the Jiazi Coal Mine, including Changpo coal mined in Ding'an in the future, can be transported along the Nandu River to Qiongshan to be processed into high-quality fertilizer.
With these small industries, of course there will be supporting facilities - there must be small machinery repair shops. In the old time and space, before the 1980s, the machinery industry in many counties was county agricultural machinery factories. Maybe a coking plant will be built to produce coking gas, so that gas lamps can also be popularized...
Thinking of the start of Qiongshan's industry, Liu Xiang was so excited that he couldn't help but stand up and walk a few steps in the office.
There are many plans swirling in his mind: building the county's road network, water conservancy construction, running schools, and starting more small industries. In his hands, Qiongshan will definitely become a developed city according to the standards of this time and space. county seat!
"Great!" He took a long puff of the cigar and almost breathed it into his lungs. "The Executive Committee is really far-sighted..."
Although these words sounded disgusting, they were his true thoughts. He suddenly asked: "I apply to build a food factory and coconut processing factory in Qiongshan. Do you think the executive committee can approve it?"
Chang Shide said: "The possibility of approval is very high. You must know that agricultural products generally cannot be transported long distances for processing - especially in our time and space."
Liu Xiang nodded repeatedly: He should have thought of such a simple fact a long time ago! Since the Senate has occupied Qiongshan, it is unlikely that the rice and sweet potatoes produced in Qiongshan will be transported to Lingao to grind the rice and make starch! Setting up local grain processing and food businesses is a no-brainer. Maybe a seafood processing plant will be built locally.
Chang Shide said at this time: "There is one more thing, the food problem of the executive committee..."
Liu Xiang was startled and suddenly froze. ! .
