Chapter 222
It's August.

The grass in the valley pasture is as tall as a person and very dense.

I checked the weather forecast, it will be sunny in the next few days.Chen Mo was ready to harvest the forage.

There was a lot of rain this year, and Chen Mo watered the spiritual spring again. The growth of the pasture... can be said to be unprecedentedly good.

In previous years, when there was a lot of rain, the amount of grass cut per acre in the valley pasture was only 1000 to [-] kilograms.In years with little rain, [-] to [-] kilograms.The forage here is really good and can be sold for more than [-] yuan per ton.But this is to find a big truck to bring the grass to the trading market to wait for buyers.If sold directly to the trading market, it will be several hundred yuan cheaper per ton.If it is sold on your own ranch, it is almost half price.

In the valley pasture, all pastures can be harvested. It just depends on whether it is worth it.

The main area where Leymus grows is the Great Valley, covering [-] to [-] acres.In order to protect the pasture, the pasture field in the valley is cut at intervals, with the valley stream as the center line. This year, the left side will be cut, and next year, the right side will be cut...

Because the pasture was to be sold, all the pasture was cleared last year.

The price of Valley Ranch is 155 million, which is very cheap. Chen Mo never knew why before, and he only found out about it some time ago.

There is a management fee for this pasture, which is 33 yuan a year.

Huaxi Ranch also needs to be managed, not the farm...

The full name of management fee is grassland management fee.Valley Pasture is not a natural, pure pasture, but an aerial-seeded pasture.

Aerial seeding of grassland costs 2 yuan per mu per year.The same goes for Huaxi Ranch.

When Chen Mo and the others bought the ranch, they actually bought the contract management rights of the ranch, and they still had to pay the fees.

Fortunately, apart from the management fee, there are no other fees.33 a year, Chen Mo and the others can still afford it.

Eight tractors, with lawn mowers hanging on the back, lawn mowers extending diagonally.

I started working at four o'clock today.

The grass is as tall as one person, and one's field of vision is very limited on the tractor.First, a passage was harvested and then the tractor started to speed up...

The grass here is as tall as a person, and its density is two to three times that of ordinary grass.

In the words of Sun Xuebing and Feng Xuezhe, they have never seen such good pasture in their three to forty years of life.

The tractor drove to 4.2 or [-], because the grass was too tall and dense, and it could not be directly crushed and harvested.But to harvest from the side...the harvesting width can reach [-] meters.

But the speed is fast enough. In one hour, a harvester can harvest more than 150 acres.

When harvesting forage, people rest, but machines do not.

The first shift works from four o'clock to noon.Second shift, work after lunch until dark...

A machine works nearly 15 hours a day, and the average area is about 2200 acres.

With 8 machines, it was completed in 4 and a half days.

In previous years, grass trimming teams were hired from outside to trim grass in the valley, using dozens of trimmers.Then raking, packaging, etc., almost half of the money from selling the grass is gone.

This year, you only need to pay for the gas when hunting these forages.The total is more than 7 yuan in gas expenses.Then there are labor costs...

After harvesting the forage, we rest for half a day, and then start raking the grass.Tractors are also used to rake grass, and there are special rake...to gather the grass scattered on the ground into a line.

Chen Mo drove the car and measured the height of the stubble everywhere.The height of the stubble is basically just over 10 centimeters.This height is required by Chen Mo. If it is higher, it will be better for the pasture.

In addition to leaving stubble, Chen Mo also left some grass seed breeding belts.About 200 meters, leaving a seven or eight meter grass seed breeding belt.

The raking operation is slower than mowing, and the grass will be drying before it is finished.

Zhou Furui helped Chen Mo contact more than a dozen forage balers from the outside, all of which were rectangular.The rectangular hay is packed and loaded into the truck...

Seeing the packing convoy going into the valley pasture, there were also calls from nearby farms.

Today is the 7th, and the baler came to the ranch and started working.

A baler is a small tractor with a baler attached to the back or side. It rolls in the forage, and after a while, the packaged forage is spit out from the back.There is a lot of forage this year, and the baler is moving very slowly.

Chen Mozheng accompanied the chairman of Xinyuan Animal Husbandry around the pasture, looked at the grass, and was seeing them off when several cars drove over.

"Boss Chen."

"Hello……"

A man in his forties wearing a leather jacket walked over with a smile: "You're grazing so early this year?"

“The pasture is growing well this year,” Chen Mo said.

The man picked up some unwound grass from the ground, and then looked at the packaged grass: "How will you sell this year's grass?"

"970 yuan per ton, you send a truck to load it yourself." Chen Mo said.

"It's too expensive. Last year's price was only 750 yuan per ton."

"970 yuan?" The people behind him couldn't believe it.

"The pasture is good this year."

“There is so much pasture this year, have we spread fertilizer?” someone asked.

"No fertilizer was spread." Chen Mo waved his hand: "The soil fertility here is already good, which is why there was so much rain this year."

Uncle Chen Mo was also beside him and looked at Chen Mo...

970 yuan is too expensive.

In the forage trading market, last year's forage, which was slightly better, cost more than [-] yuan.

The price of this year's pasture has not been released yet, but the rain in their area is good, so the price of pasture will not be outrageous.But it must be more than a thousand yuan...

The reason why Chen Mo didn't send the grass to the grass trading market was because it was troublesome, and it was still troublesome.If the quantity is small and you have your own large truck, you can take the forage to the trading market and sell it at a high price.If the quantity is large and you don’t have a car...

Sending a cart of forage does not mean that it will be sold on the same day.And if you want to sell it at a high price, you have to wait.If it is sold to a dealer, the price is not much different than Chen Mo's direct package sale.The price is cheaper now, and it is simpler and easier.And the price of 970 yuan per ton is not cheap at all.

Chen Mo sold it for 970 yuan and asked them to contact the car themselves to install it. Naturally, he had the confidence.

Xinyuan Animal Husbandry not only needs green storage, but also dry grass.The price they gave was 970 yuan per ton, and they said it was as much as they wanted, but Chen Mo had to hire a car to pull it there for them.

"Why is it so expensive? Last year, the price of forage was sky-high. The forage here only costs 750 yuan per ton."

"Xinyuan Animal Husbandry buys in large quantities for 970 yuan per ton. They want as much as they want." Chen Mo said: "I can't sell at a loss... and this year's forage is really better."

The forage harvested in early August can be described in four words as fresh and plump.

The visitor took a look at the pasture on the ground. This year's pasture is indeed very good, but the price is a bit expensive.

This is in Xing'an Mountains, not in the prairie.The local pasture here is cheap at only 600 yuan per ton.

The local farmers looked at each other and went to discuss it elsewhere.

Chen Mo looked at the forage and was calculating how much money he could make from selling it.

Waiting for the farmers to come back, this one costs 10 tons, that one costs 20 tons... the most cost 165 tons.

Anyway, call the car over, load the car over the weighbridge, and pay for it to be taken away...

Huaxi Farm installed a 100-ton weighbridge.Chen Mo also installed a weighbridge outside the ranch, with a maximum weight of 80 tons.

Floor scales are not expensive. Once installed, Chen Mo's floor scale cost less than 9 yuan.Got it through online loan...
