When Qin Xueyi saw Zhou Yang coming, he didn't want to bother with Li Jianjun, the second-hand swordsman, and immediately walked towards Zhou Yang.
"Teacher Qin, are you looking for me?" Zhou Yang said with a smile.
"Well, Comrade Zhou Yang, I want to ask you something!" Qin Xueyi said immediately.
"Don't take it seriously if you ask for advice. If you have anything to say, just tell me!"
Qin Xueyi pointed to the busy members behind him and said: "Comrade Zhou Yang, I heard from other members and comrades that you were the one who created this new feed. Is that true?"
Zhou Yang immediately understood that Qin Xueyi was going to ask him about biological feed.
For people of this era, biological feed is definitely a new thing.
Qin Xueyi is also a professional in breeding, so he is naturally very interested in this new type of epoch-making feed.
"I researched it!" Zhou Yang said.
"To be honest, I saw you feeding the piglets such rotten stuff two days ago. I was very angry at the time."
Then Qin Xueyi continued: "You may not know that although Landrace pigs have large skeletons and grow quickly, they also have shortcomings, that is, their disease resistance is very weak, and they are completely incomparable to our local black pigs."
"Among all the diseases, the one that is most likely to cause the death of piglets in the early stage is diarrhea. So I am really worried about whether you will directly spoil the piglets by feeding this kind of feed."
At this point, Qin Xueyi changed his tone and continued: "But after observing for a few days, I was surprised to find that not only did not one of these piglets get sick, they were actually healthier than when they were at the College of Agriculture and Animal Husbandry, and they were all alive and kicking. , the growth momentum is good, so I have a strong interest in your new feed!"
Qin Xueyi was really angry at first, and even had conflicts with the members of the pig farm because of this.
The reason is that he stopped the members from feeding the piglets those biological feeds!
But the members might listen to him. After all, the power of this biological feed has been proven in black pigs.
Moreover, during this period, members secretly took biological feed home to feed their chickens, and the results were very good.
In the end, it was Li Fengnian who came forward to calm down the unpleasantness.
After learning the details of biological feed, Qin Xueyi was immediately attracted by this magical feed.
He realized that if what the villagers said were true, this might be a major breakthrough for us to promote the breeding of Landrace pigs! "
After hearing Qin Xueyi's words, Zhou Yang straightened his thoughts and said: "Teacher Qin, the feed we are feeding the piglets now is called biological fermentation feed. Compared with traditional pig grass, grains and other feeds, this kind of feed It does have considerable advantages!”
"Oh! Can you tell me what advantages they have?" Qin Xueyi said.
"The first is to improve feed digestibility, enhance nutrient absorption, and ensure the healthy growth of farmed animals."
Then Zhou Yang continued: "Biological fermentation feed contains a large amount of probiotics and their metabolites, such as digestive enzymes, which supplement the number of digestive enzymes in the body, greatly improve the digestion level, and ensure that the feed eaten is not wasted."
"With good nutrition absorption, disease resistance will be enhanced accordingly, and the incidence rate will be reduced accordingly. For members, not only is the investment in medicines reduced, but the breeding process is also more worry-free and trouble-free."
"Well, that makes sense, is there anything else?"
Zhou Yang nodded and said again: "The use of biological feed can also significantly improve the breeding environment, because this kind of feed improves digestion, and the harmful bacteria in the farm do not have nutrient residues to catabolize, and the odor produced is reduced. The damage caused by these irritating gases to the respiratory system of animals cannot be ignored."
Qin Xueyi nodded immediately, and then said: "No wonder the piglets quickly recovered from their wilting appearance after using your feed. I was also worried that they would not adapt when they first came here, and some of them would die. !”
"Haha, this kind of thing shouldn't happen in Babaoliang Village!"
Then Zhou Yang continued: "Our new feed has been tested on black pigs in pig farms for some time, and the test results are very good."
“After using biological feed, the growth rate of black pigs has been significantly accelerated, and there are no other adverse reactions!”
Qin Xueyi nodded and said: "Well, I saw that the black-haired pigs in your pig farm are all smooth and smooth. They are indeed very different from the black-haired pigs we have seen!"
"So after I learned about this, I didn't stop them from feeding the new feed to the piglets. But I saw that you also added a lot of supplementary materials when feeding the pigs. What are they?"
Zhou Yang immediately said: "There are grains, such as wheat bran, sesame cakes, bean cakes, etc., and some bone meal!"
"What is bone meal?"
Qin Xueyi had just arrived in the village a few days ago, and the bone meal factory had now been moved to a small river bend outside the village. He did not know that there was a bone meal factory in the village.
"It's just powder made from pig bones!"
"Pigs...pork bone powder...you feed pigs pig bone powder, this..."
Qin Xueyi was a little confused. This was the first time he heard about this.
And it doesn’t seem to be a good idea to do this. Think about how uncomfortable it would be if the pigs knew that they were eating bone meal of the same kind, and how much psychological shadow they would have.
More importantly, cannibalism by similar creatures is likely to cause unpredictable pathological changes.
Zhou Yang obviously saw Qin Xueyi's concerns and immediately said: "Pigs are a magical animal. Cows may get mad cow disease if they eat beef bone meal, but pigs will not. As long as they are steamed and sterilized at high temperature when making bone meal, and be sure With a good intake, there will be no problems!”
"Moreover, the growth and development of piglets require a large amount of calcium. If the feed contains little or no calcium, rickets are likely to occur before and after birth. Adding bone meal to the feed can prevent rickets."
"Well, it makes sense, but I think it remains to be seen what the specific situation will be!" Qin Xueyi said.
"It doesn't matter. Anyway, Teacher Qin, you live here now. You can observe whenever you want and for as long as you want!" Zhou Yang said.
"Comrade Zhou Yang, I have a heartfelt request. I don't know..."
Before Qin Xueyi could finish speaking, Zhou Yang looked at him and said, "Are you planning to ask for the formula of our biological feed?"
"Well, although it seems unfair to you, I think this kind of feed is of great significance in promoting Landrace pigs. If the two work together, the mortality rate of piglets can be greatly reduced..."
However, before Qin Xueyi could finish speaking, Zhou Yang interrupted him again: "The advantage of biological feed is not only to reduce the mortality rate, it can also greatly shorten the growth time of Landrace pigs, just take the piglets in our farm For a baby, it can take up to four to six months to grow to about 250 pounds!"
"This...how is this possible?" Qin Xueyi said with a look of horror.
He can be said to be a real expert in raising pigs. There is no doubt that Landrace pigs grow very fast.
But even so, after their experiment at the College of Agriculture and Animal Husbandry, it took at least 7 months for an average Landrace pig to grow to 250 pounds.
However, that is the result of breeding in the special environment of the Agriculture and Animal Husbandry College. Not only is the feed sufficient and the nutrition is balanced, but the breeding environment is also clean and hygienic.
If you change to an ordinary pig farm, all these environments will disappear.
After several years of research, Qin Xueyi and others generally believe that it takes at least 8 months for Landrace pigs to be sold in ordinary environments.
However, Zhou Yang told him that he could be out of trouble in four to six months at most.
Even if the maximum value is six months, it can shorten the breeding cycle by two months!
If it is four months, then the breeding cycle is doubled.
This will be a disruptive and leap-forward development for the entire breeding industry.
Seeing Qin Xueyi's disbelieving look, Zhou Yang smiled and said, "Teacher Qin, let's make a bet!"
"What are you betting on?"
"There are almost five months between now and the end of the year. Let's use these piglets you donated as experimental subjects to see if they can grow to the standards for slaughter!"
Then Zhou Yang continued: "If I can reach the standard for the show, I win! If I can't reach the standard for the show, I lose!"
"What's the bet?" Qin Xueyi asked curiously.
"I won. The formula of biological feed will be given to your College of Agriculture and Animal Husbandry. Whether you study it yourself or promote it to other people, I will not interfere! But Teacher Qin has to promise me to stay here for five years!"
Then, Zhou Yang continued: "If Teacher Qin wins, the biological feed will still be given to you. In addition, I promise to give you a new feed technology for raising cattle and sheep!"
Qin Xueyi thought about it, this bet is interesting!
No matter what, it seems that I am not at a loss!
After thinking about it again and again, he immediately said: "Okay, I'll make a bet with you!"
"Hahaha, then we have an agreement!"
"It's a deal!"
Afterwards, Zhou Yang didn't say anything more and left with a smile!
Looking at Zhou Yang's retreating figure, Qin Xueyi suddenly shuddered and had an ominous premonition...
