As soon as Qiu Baiyu came, everyone was silent.

Some people thought that Qiu Baiyu didn't understand, and couldn't help saying: "Academician Qiu Baiyu, if the rice yield exceeds 1000 kilograms per mu, you need to consider climate, soil, and care. Generally speaking, farmers have low education levels and no professional planting knowledge. , it is very difficult to do.”

"They can't do it, so I asked you to help do it. Otherwise, what's the point of research?"

"..."

If the experimental field reaches a yield of [-] kilograms per mu or even exceeds the limit to [-] kilograms, but cannot be promoted, it will be of no use.

"Don't worry, I will help you with research. I not only conduct research on seeds, but also research on agricultural machinery, fertilizers, transportation, etc., so as to provide one-stop service. The goal is to enable farmers to keep their harvests under drought and flood, and their harvests increase year by year. High, until the surplus grain is abundant and can be exported."

Generally speaking, oversupply will lead to lower prices.

But for food, especially rice, certainly not, because this has always been covered by the government and subsidized.

It is a pity that the economic benefits of farming are so poor and tiring that young people no longer farm.

Still have to be mechanized and automated.

The agricultural mechanization suitable for Dongyuan's national conditions, this thing Qiu Baiyu is better at.

In contrast, when it comes to research on crops and does not involve genetic modification, she can only combine computational simulations based on the food-related knowledge in the database and all the relevant knowledge that can be collected on the Internet.

With the powerful computing power of the Suzheng CPU, even genetically modified crops can simulate whether they are harmful.

But she doesn't plan to dabble in GMOs until she points out the actual technology.

During the deployment, someone raised his hand and asked, "But, Academician Qiu, didn't you say that we want to study how to plant land on the moon base?"

"When the lunar base is built, people will be sent there in batches. You can't study the farming on the lunar base on the ground, right?"

"Oh yes."

"..."

"still have a question……"

"Okay, if you have any questions, write a proposal and give it to my assistant. I will take the time to read it and discuss it with you at the project meeting."

Qiu Baiyu interrupted the question.

It's getting late now.

She also needs to complete the project deployment related to agricultural machinery automation, so she is very busy.

In addition to automation, you also need to go to Sawu.

Be prepared to discuss fertilizer cooperation with them.

That is to say, we are going to make a fuss about fertilizers to reduce the cost of fertilization.

Thinking about this, Qiu Baiyu suddenly came back to his senses.

"No. Why should I do it myself?"

She immediately looked at Chen Siyu next to her, took Chen Siyu's hand, and said with a smile: "Sister Chen, do me a favor."

This appearance immediately alerted Chen Siyu.

It must be troublesome!

"Please tell me, I'll do it for you right away."

But no matter how troublesome it is, I still have to do it as an assistant. There is nothing I can do.

"It's not a big deal, it's just that I have to write a lot of materials. After I write them, you can help me find the corresponding people and ask them to be responsible for establishing these related research laboratories. There are not many related laboratories and experiments. There are only a dozen or so bases."

Chen Siyu: "..."

"A dozen", "Not many".

It’s really not much, and you need to run around the country for a while, um...

"Ok."

Chapter 173 The theory is established, practice begins!

As all agricultural-related technical items were distributed one by one, the big machine of Dongyuan started to work.

Agricultural technicians from all over the country established a large number of research laboratories.

These laboratories are established in local extreme environments, that is, lack of water sources, or soil that has lost fertilizer, too strong/weak light, and prone to major floods.

Basically, it covers all landforms and conducts research on local staple foods. The direction is to resist various extreme environments and maintain production in those environments. In suitable planting areas, the goal is to increase production.

The former is to allow the local area to be self-sufficient, while the latter is to supply the whole country so that everyone can eat, and by the way, check the situation and sell the excess.

There has always been a lot of grain in Dongyuan, and the number one document every year is related to agriculture.

And even if there is a lot of grain in storage, grain is imported from abroad every year, even rice is imported.

If we want to form an export industry chain, the existing grain production must be doubled.

At the same time, those agricultural products that are extremely dependent on imports, such as soybeans, also need to be self-sufficient.

Of course, what restricts the development of Dongyuan's agricultural products is largely the lack of mechanization. Many places are still small-scale farmers and cannot be as highly mechanized as the Mirui Empire.

For farmland that has already formed an industrial scale, it is actually very convenient to upgrade the automation of machinery. Those farmers either rely on the state food, or have already relied on subsidies to get along with a large amount of farmland, which is quite like the landlords of the old era.

Of course, they will not refuse more efficient, cheaper machinery, and higher yielding seeds.

But for the average farmer...

Promotion is very difficult.

In fact, there is a way to effectively centralize all agriculture, which is to establish relevant trade unions.

But trade unions are not a good thing if you look at the island country next door.

The original intention may be good, but with the development of time, the trade union will inevitably become a tool to restrict farmers and lead to intensified social conflicts.

Can't do this.

unless--

The "people" of the trade union are all machines, and they perform tasks strictly according to the procedures. The CPU only has the tasks assigned by the superiors, and does not think about corruption, accepting meetings, and controlling prices to buy and sell by force.

In the future, machines may be used instead of manual labor to do these industries that are prone to moths, but it is not the time yet.

Now if you want to mobilize everyone to go back to farming, or leave one person to go home to farm, the best way is——

Promote low-priced and high-yielding seeds, low-priced automated agricultural machinery, and low-priced pesticides and fertilizers.

When the cost of planting is reduced, no one will grow the land.

Whether it's rice, wheat or corn or soybean, it's right to research and promote in this direction!

Qiu Baiyu is going to find some lucky users to conduct "real-life experiments", and use various agricultural-related laboratories that are being rolled out to escort "real-life experiment volunteers".

time……

Just plant it next spring.

----------

Time passed quietly.

Autumn harvest, winter, Chinese New Year...

Then came the spring planting season.

This is a small village in the Uncheon plateau area.

The village is called Jiaoliang Village. It is built on the hillside. There is a small river at the foot of the mountain. It is not well-known. For generations, it has grown rice and corn for a living, and occasionally wheat and rapeseed in winter.

But it is a pity that here are all barren mountains and wild mountains, and there is no way out for farming.

So much so that the younger generation... no, the middle-aged generation, after the cement road leading to the county town [-] kilometers away, they basically chose to go out to work, leaving the fertile land in ruins.

Those with elderly people at home can’t bear to see those fields grow weeds, so they will cultivate them by themselves, or spend some money to ask the middle-aged men who are still in the village to help plow the fields and sow seeds.

During the autumn harvest, the old people will form a team together to help each other harvest.

But after all, the labor force is limited. Basically, one or two fields can be planted to achieve self-sufficiency. If there are too many, there is nothing that can be done.

Or give up growing rice and grow seasonal vegetables.

This is the situation here and is also a true portrayal of most rural areas in Dongyuan.

Because of geographical factors and the cost of farming, today's young people no longer choose to farm at home, but choose to go out to farm.

Although in recent years, the general workers in factories have also decreased year by year, and everyone has changed from assembly line workers to flexible employees.

The state has a macro-control on food prices so that everyone can eat, but it also prevents farmers from increasing their income. This is also a reason. Even if there are subsidies, it is still a drop in the bucket compared to working.

This year's Jiaoliang Village is no different from previous years.

After the Chinese New Year, the younger generation who are strong enough go out to find jobs, leaving behind the elderly who cannot work and some middle-aged people who start their own businesses at home.

This year everyone is planning to do the same as in previous years, planting the fields, planting tomatoes, and clearing weeds for plums.

But someone from above suddenly came and asked the village chief to run through everyone's homes overnight, gather everyone together, and tell everyone not to rush to take the good land to grow tomatoes and other vegetables.

After gathering at the village committee, everyone was talking about what kind of medicine the village chief was selling in his gourd.

When the village head and several people who knew they were coming from outside came over, someone shouted: "Village head, what are you asking everyone to come here? Live, it will be delayed tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.”

"Yeah, yeah, don't you go to work while it's not raining today, are you responsible for the wasted time?"

Faced with the villagers' questioning, the village chief took his time and coughed twice to signal for everyone to calm down.He said loudly: "I wasted everyone's time today to call everyone here. I have something important to tell everyone. It's a good thing!"

"What good thing?"

"Could it be that they are sending money and food?"

"Or is it that someone wants to contract our mountain to cheat subsidies?"

"..."

The villagers started talking again after the village chief said something.

As a last resort, the village chief had no choice but to use his nirvana——

Audio microphone!

"Everyone listen to me!"
