"There is another aspect, which is our pasture cultivation and ecological breeding industry. This industry is very unique and worth talking about."
Du Xiuming said this, and then smiled at Zhong Xiaoling who was sitting on the side: "Mr. Zhong, you are familiar with this aspect, so you can introduce it to Mr. Wu and others."
Seeing Du Xiuming call her name, Zhong Xiaoling did not refuse, and then nodded and introduced to everyone.
"Compared to other crops, pasture is more suitable for surviving and growing in this desolate and arid sandy land, and it can also fertilize the land.
Therefore, we adopt a rotational farming system and rotate sowing on the 100,000 acres of our farm to maintain and increase soil fertility.
At present, our farm has a total of more than 10,000 acres of pasture, and we mainly grow three types of pasture, namely Mexican corn grass, a new type of bamboo grass adapted to growing in the desert, and alfalfa, which cattle and sheep like to eat and fatten.
The entire forage industry, from sowing, fertilizing, harvesting, and packaging, is all run by intelligent unmanned equipment and managed by an intelligent unmanned farm system.
Because sowing occurs at different times, our forage can be harvested from May to late October each year.
After these forages are harvested and packaged, some of them will be fermented and processed into concentrated feed, while the rest will be directly supplied to our pastures.
Five pastures have been established around us, mainly raising cattle and sheep. For the sheep, we chose the big-tailed sheep from Western Xinjiang, and for the cattle, we chose the Angus breed, which is a very good beef breed.
These five ranches are joint projects we built with the locals. The local government provides land, we build pastures, introduce breeding calves, and then recruit qualified people from nearby areas to join the pastures and take charge of raising cattle and sheep.
In addition, there are two cooperation methods specifically tailored to local conditions. We provide cattle and sheep calves, which are then given to farmers to raise, and finally recycled at a suitable price.
This method is mainly aimed at farmers who are skeptical, worried about risks, and do not have start-up capital.
Another way is for us to establish stable and long-term purchasing channels to purchase cattle and sheep from local farmers. This method also encourages local people to raise livestock and get rid of poverty and become rich.
After being slaughtered in a centralized manner and passing inspection and quarantine, the beef and mutton will then enter the cold fresh logistics channel and be transported to major cities in the mainland as quickly as possible. "
Speaking of this, Zhong Xiaoling took a breath, and then said with a smile: "As you know, in recent years, there have been many problems with imported fresh food, especially meat.
Therefore, people are extremely cautious when purchasing, and there is a huge demand for our local fresh food, especially meat.
Our direct sales of food, which can be traced back to the place of origin, are very popular with the public, and the prices are also rising, which brings us considerable benefits. "
Hearing Zhong Xiaoling's introduction, Xu Xiaoya smiled and nodded: "This project is good, and I am very optimistic about the development prospects of this project.
As we all know, with the continuous improvement of people's living standards, our domestic people's demand for meat is increasing year by year.
Relying on our country's livestock and poultry meat production is simply not enough to meet public demand. So for many years, we have imported a large amount of meat from overseas.
However, due to a series of reasons and problems, we have to treat these imported foods with caution. Moreover, due to national strategic security considerations, we cannot rely too much on overseas imports. Our own jobs and our food basket must be in our own hands.
Therefore, in recent years, the state is actively encouraging our local breeding industry and has introduced a series of support and favorable policies.
Although our domestic breeding industry has also been developing rapidly in recent years, compared with the huge demand gap, it is still far from enough.
Another one is that the development of intelligent automated pastures in our country is still at the division level, far behind developed countries in the animal husbandry industry such as Europe and the United States.
These poultry meat breeding industries are relatively scattered, relatively small in scale, and the breeding technology is relatively backward, resulting in a relatively low conversion rate from grain to meat.
The so-called grain-to-meat conversion rate is actually the conversion relationship between grain feed and livestock meat. To put it simply, feeding a pound of grain can increase the weight of several pounds of meat.
By adopting this latest modern pasture technology, we can greatly improve the conversion rate of grain to meat and increase the slaughter rate of poultry and livestock.
In this way, on the one hand, we can use the lowest cost and put the lowest grain feed in exchange for high livestock slaughter rate and meat production rate.
On the other hand, reduce waste and reduce emissions.
The most important thing is that we can supply high-quality, safe and stable meat sources to the market at a relatively low cost.
If possible, I suggest we continue to expand the size of the ranch.
In this way, the forage and corn produced on our farm can be directly digested on site, thus forming a very complete modern new animal husbandry industry chain. "
Obviously, an important purpose of Xu Xiaoya's coming here is for this matter. So when she mentioned this project, she seemed particularly excited.
Wu Hao naturally understood this, so when he heard Xu Xiaoya's words, he shook his head deliberately and said with a worried expression: "Expanding the scale of the pasture means that the scale of the farm also needs to continue to be improved. In this way, The related investment will also need to be increased, and it is not a small number, so it is better to be cautious about this project.”
What, don’t you like this project? Xu Xiaoya was a little surprised. This was obviously a money-making project, but she didn't expect Wu Hao to be so calm and composed, showing a lackluster expression in his clothes.
Wu Hao shook his head slightly and said: "It's not that I'm not optimistic, it's that I think this project is worth the additional investment.
You know that our company has many projects, and these projects are all waiting for money. So now that I am investing some of my funds into this project, I am afraid that many people in the company will not understand it.
What more..."
Wu Hao glanced at Xu Xiaoya, then smiled and said: "This project has been going on for several years, so much money, manpower and material resources have been invested, and so much effort has been expended.
Now is the time to make a profit. If you continue to invest like this, when will it end? "
Wu Hao's words also caused many people present to nod in approval.
Xu Xiaoya looked Wu Hao around, then shook her head and smiled: "This is not like you Wu Hao. When did you become so timid?"
