“As for cultivating cattle and sheep breeds, compared to the field of plant technology, the animal husbandry industry is generally cautious and conservative, and both practitioners and consumers in the animal husbandry industry generally tend to be conservative.
It’s no wonder, after all, when it comes to food safety, one should be conservative and cautious. However, being too conservative will hinder the development of technology.
Moreover, the application of gene editing technology and transgenic technology in the animal field is very cautious and sensitive, and involves a series of problems, so it is difficult to carry out.
Our current idea is to cultivate better quality pasture, thereby raising better cattle and sheep, and obtaining better meat quality. "
The idea is very clear, but one thing should be noted here. As long as this aspect is done well, it will not be difficult to achieve this huge idea and goal.
Hearing Wu Hao's comments, Zhang Jun, Shen Ning and others couldn't help but become curious. They wanted to know what exactly it was. As long as they did it well, they could realize this fantasy and goal that was similar to the Arabian Nights.
Facing everyone's gaze, Wu Hao said with a smile: "Benefits, in fact, they are still benefits. All parties must feel profitable. We must make profits for the people, so that they can have the motivation to engage in agriculture and animal husbandry.
It is necessary to make local areas profitable so that they can support and lead the people in agricultural cultivation and animal husbandry.
The whole region needs to be profitable so that they can do a good job in ensuring livestock and agriculture.
We also want to make profits for consumers. Only products with high quality and low price can capture the hearts of consumers and gain their support.
This is a cyclic ecosystem. Only by allowing the entire ecosystem to operate in an orderly and healthy cycle can this project be successful and ultimately achieve the great goal we have imagined. "
"It's not easy to satisfy the people, the localities, and the consumers." Zhang Jun sighed and said: "In the final analysis, it is profit, which is so big. If you satisfy the consumers, it is impossible to satisfy the farmers and the farmers." If farmers are satisfied, consumers may not be satisfied.
Farmers make money from consumers and make more money from consumers. Consumers, on the other hand, hope to buy better and cheaper agricultural products and meat products from farmers and herdsmen.
This is a naturally antagonistic relationship, how can it be possible to satisfy both parties? "
Haha, isn't there still room? They need to come forward at this time. Wu Hao smiled and said: "Use their role to condition the relationship between the two.
In fact, it is very simple to satisfy both of them, that is, to reduce the cost of agricultural products and meat products. In this way, even farmers and herdsmen can sell these high-quality agricultural products and meat products at a very cheap price, and they can also get very good profits. Considerable profits are made, and consumers can buy these high-quality agricultural products and meat products for very little money. In this way, both parties are naturally satisfied. "
Easier said than done. Zhang Jun shook his head slightly and said: "To put it bluntly, it is still technology. Better technology must be developed to effectively reduce farming and feeding costs and improve product quality.
The question is can we do this now? And as the proposer and core participant of this project, what role do we play in this and how to ensure our own interests.
For such a big project, we can't be selfless throughout the whole process. "
of course not. Wu Hao shook his head and smiled: "As the initiators and core participants of the entire project, we naturally have to be deeply involved in this project. It should be said that the operation of the entire project is carried out with us as the core. During the entire participation process , will naturally drive the development of our business in this area.
For example, our intelligent unmanned farm and ranch technology used to be developed and used by ourselves, but now we should optimize this technology so that it can adapt to the rural environment.
For example, our most fundamental goal in developing intelligent unmanned technology is to reduce or eliminate human participation, thereby reducing or eliminating labor costs.
But it won't work in rural areas, because this technology is not adapted to the local conditions in rural areas. It cannot solve the employment problem of rural laborers, and it will also squeeze the employment and living space of these laborers.
So when we optimize, can we cancel or reduce this unmanned operation and allow personnel to participate in the entire production process? "
"But intelligent unmanned operation is the key to reducing the entire production cost. If it is cancelled, it will only increase the cost, and the prices of agricultural products and meat products produced will not be much cheaper." Zhang Jun questioned.
Wu Hao replied with a smile: "We only canceled or reduced unmanned operations, but did not cancel automation and intelligence."
Does it matter? Zhang Jun asked.
Of course there is a relationship, and there is a big relationship. Wu Hao answered with a smile: "The biggest feature of unmanned production is that no personnel are involved in production, which is full automation. As for automation, it can produce automatically, but many processes require personnel to participate.
Let’s take a very simple example, such as cultivators, subsoilers, seeders, harvesters, etc. These are all controlled by intelligent systems on our intelligent unmanned farms and can be operated unmanned.
But in the system we designed for rural farmers, these machines require people to be responsible for driving operations. Aren’t these all jobs?
In addition, some other mechanical equipment may require manual operation, and these are also jobs. The total number of these positions can satisfy the labor force employment of a rural area.
This is also due to the vast area and sparse population in the northwest region. If there is less land and more people like the central and eastern regions, then this plan will definitely not be implemented. "
So is this a technological step backwards? We already have this set of intelligent, unmanned equipment, but now we have to optimize it into automation that requires human participation. Isn’t this going backwards? Zhang Jun raised his doubts again.
This is not because he opposes Wu Hao or does not support this project, but he raises his own doubts and questions in a targeted manner. This is actually to solve the problem. Because if this project is implemented, these problems will definitely appear in the future, so corresponding preparations must be made in advance, so that you will not panic when encountering these problems.
Regarding this issue, Wu Haowei smiled and said: "How can we go in reverse? This itself is a matter of trade-offs. Besides, our intelligent unmanned system is very expensive, and the villages in the northwest are generally not very wealthy. , how can we afford it?" (End of this chapter)
