The village cadre meeting at the brigade headquarters was still going on. Everyone had different reactions when they heard that Zhou Yang was going to build a biogas digester!
Li Fengnian, Zhang Genwang and others looked confused. They had never heard of a biogas digester.
Qin Xueyi and Yan Gengdong looked surprised!
Of course they knew what the biogas pool was for, but they didn't expect that Zhou Yang's idea was so forward-thinking and he was planning to build it in the village.
Putting aside whether it is technically feasible, the cultural level of these people in the village alone may not be able to do that thing.
One careless move may lead to disaster!
"Zhou Zhiqing, what is a biogas digester, and what is the use of building that thing?" Wang Ping asked immediately.
Zhou Yang immediately said: "Biogas is a special kind of gas. If used properly, it can not only solve the problem of pig manure, but also provide cooking fuel and basic lighting for pig farms and even entire villages!"
"Hey, I heard what you said, Zhou Zhiqing, as long as this biogas pool is built, all the members will be able to light electric lights in the future?" Zhang Genwang asked with some expectation.
Babaoliang Village already has electricity, but using electric lights costs electricity, so most members still use old-fashioned kerosene lamps.
Even those households with power lines pulled should try to go to bed early and get up early to avoid using electricity.
Therefore, this electric light is still a luxury item for most members!
Zhou Yang immediately nodded and said: "Yes, after the biogas pool is built, everyone will be able to use electric lights for free. And as long as we build a large enough biogas pool, we can even cook without firewood in the future, and we can also wash it in winter." Take a hot bath!”
Zhou Yang naturally knows the benefits of biogas. This gas is a secondary energy source and a renewable energy source.
And the benefits of building a biogas digester in the village go beyond that.
Not only can it solve the energy problem in the village, but it can also be used to promote the development of agriculture and animal husbandry.
Generally speaking, you only need to build a 10 cubic meter biogas digester. As long as the fermentation raw materials are sufficient and well managed, you can solve the fuel problem of lighting, cooking and hot water bathing for a family.
Moreover, after the biogas digester is built, the manure of livestock and poultry is added to the biogas digester for fermentation, which can produce biogas and retting out a large amount of high-quality organic fertilizer, expanding the source of organic fertilizer.
In addition, the biogas slurry and biogas residue produced can also be used to water fruit trees and vegetables. This is the best fertilizer in the era without chemical fertilizers.
Normally, fields using biogas fertilizers can generally increase yields by more than 20%, and the quality of grain, fruits and vegetables is significantly improved.
All crops that use biogas fertilizer not only enhance their ability to resist drought and freeze, but also greatly improve the survival rate of seedlings.
More importantly, building a biogas digester will also help improve the sanitary conditions in the village.
Anyone who has built a biogas pool can appreciate that using biogas as fuel is smoke-free, dust-free, and easy to clean.
Some feces, garbage, domestic sewage, etc. are good raw materials for biogas fermentation. As these raw materials enter the biogas tank, the germs and parasite eggs are killed by closed fermentation in the biogas tank.
This improves the environmental sanitation conditions in rural areas and is of great benefit to the health of humans and animals.
After hearing Zhou Yang's answer, everyone's interest was immediately aroused.
For Li Fengnian, Zhang Genwang and Wang Ping, it doesn't matter what biogas is. What's important is that it has such great benefits.
Then, these people started discussing with Zhou Yang about building a biogas digester.
In fact, there is not much technical content in building a biogas digester. As long as Zhou Yang provides guidance, it can be built easily.
It's just that biogas pools are different from ordinary buildings. What's really difficult about them is daily maintenance.
Especially large biogas pools can turn into time bombs if not careful.
Because of this, Zhou Yang has no plans to make it so big for the time being. He plans to build two small biogas digesters first to see the effect.
Anyway, most of the pigs in the pig farm are piglets, and the feces produced every day is not much. Two or three 10-cubic biogas digesters are enough.
If the problem is not serious, this model can be promoted on a large scale in the village.
Soon, the matter was settled!
According to the results of everyone's discussion, starting from tomorrow, all the labor force in the village will go into battle.
On the premise of ensuring the normal operation of pig farms, feed mills and bone meal plants, all the remaining people are invested in various project construction.
The first batch of projects to be built include the dormitories and warehouses of the pig farm, the fermentation tank of the feed factory, the factory buildings of the bone meal factory, and the biogas digester proposed by Zhou Yang.
Although the amount of work is not small, everyone is now full of confidence and motivation!
.......
After the meeting, it was already past seven o'clock in the evening when I got home.
At this time, Li Youwei had already prepared the meal. Seeing Zhou Yang push the door open and come in, Li Youwei immediately told him to wash his hands and get ready to eat.
Zhou Yang had just washed his hands and the food was already served by Li Youwei.
Dinner is millet porridge, boiled potatoes, and two dishes of side dishes.
One dish is pickled leeks, and the other dish is cold bitter vegetables!
A few decades later, such a dinner would definitely be considered light and healthy.
But looking at it now, it can only be said to be poor and shabby!
But now almost everyone is like this. In comparison, the food at Zhou Yang's family is already very good.
At least there is rice in their porridge and salt in their vegetables!
It’s not like other members’ homes where the soup is watery, saltless and tasteless!
Just when Zhou Yang thought that was all for dinner, he suddenly saw Li Youwei taking out a small basin from the cupboard where the leftovers were kept!
Then, a strong smell of meat wafted out.
Since the small basin was held by a large ocean bowl, Zhou Yang couldn't see what was inside, so he immediately asked: "What is it? It smells weird!"
"Haha, meat!"
With that said, Li Youwei opened the big bowl on top of the enamel basin, and saw that half of the basin was filled with red, shiny and oily chicken.
There are some potatoes and beans inside the meat, which makes people move their index fingers!
"Where did it come from..."
Then Zhou Yang thought of something and said again: "Did it come from the old house?"
"Well, mother said that you have lost weight because of your busy schedule, so when we entertained the leaders, we left some meat and vegetables for you. Eat it quickly!"
Zhou Yang couldn't help but feel a little moved. It was said that the mother-in-law became happier the more she looked at her son-in-law.
My mother-in-law really didn't say anything to her son-in-law, not to mention her concern for daily life. These elderly people really helped them a lot, whether it was food or money.
In addition, mother-in-law also plays an important role in raising children. She has basically helped and supported Baoer since he was a child.
Zhou Yang keeps all this in mind!
"Didn't dad just kill a chicken? He brought so much to us, and he also entertained Dean Kang and the others, so they..."
Li Youwei smiled and said, "Well, Mom said the leaders still have a lot left. I'll add some potatoes and beans at night and stew a pot of stew. It's enough!"
Zhou Yang nodded and did not continue. It was enough to keep some things in mind. There was no need to talk about them every day.
With him here, Lao Li's family will definitely be able to live a good life in the future!
