Ultra-Dimensional Technology Era

The reduction in the production of food crops is very obvious.

For example, in Tianzhu, after all the early rice crops were wiped out in spring, on the one hand, the replanting was not timely, and on the other hand, the regulation was unreasonable. This year's spring grain production is only about 9700 million tons.

This level seems to have little impact, because Tianzhu can be planted three seasons a year, but the reality is just very serious.

If you compare the spring grain production in previous years, you will know how terrible the food crisis in Tianzhu is.

2014年天竺全年粮食总产量3.1亿吨左右，其中春粮1.56亿吨、夏粮0.51亿吨、秋粮1.04亿吨。

Now we can see the problem very clearly. Although tropical areas can grow three seasons a year, summer is hot, rainy and typhoon, which is not a period of high grain production. Although the rainy season will weaken in autumn, typhoons are also frequent, which is a serious problem. Factors affecting food production.

In other words, the gap in Tianzhu spring grain this year is as high as 6000 million tons. Even if the 1300 million tons of rice are not exported, this big hole cannot be filled.

In the summer and autumn grains, rice occupies a very large proportion. Now rice cannot be grown, and those paddy fields will be difficult to transform for a while, which will further increase the food gap.

It is estimated that in 2015, the overall food shortage in Tianzhu will expand to 8000-9000 million tons, affecting 6 million people.

As for the situation in Southeast Asia, it is also not optimistic. During the international grain rush in January, a lot of food in Southeast Asia was lost. By the time they reacted and restricted exports, domestic grain reserves had dropped to historical lows.

At present, in Southeast Asia, the country with the largest food self-sufficiency gap is the Southeast Asian Thousand Islands, with an overall food gap of 33%, followed by Annan's 24% and Myanmar's 17%.

Countries such as Siam, Luzon, and Malaysia are still barely self-sufficient.

In the international grain price, rice has soared to US$2670 per ton, wheat flour is US$1975 per ton, and corn is US$1150 per ton.

The prices of the three major staple foods have soared to varying degrees, and the world's largest food exporter, the United States, is not only reducing exports, but also constantly raising prices.

Huanong Group, Ganjiang Provincial Headquarters.

Acting chairman Liu Qinghe, deputy acting chairman Hu Yue (also in charge of rural cooperatives), deputy acting chairman Jin Yang (also in charge of international trade) and others held an emergency meeting.

"These ghosts really have no good intentions." Jin Yang slammed an international soybean price on the table angrily.

Liu Qinghe had expected this matter a long time ago. After all, with the soaring international food prices, soybeans, which have relatively vague food attributes (can be used as oil crops or food crops), will naturally be affected.

The five major soybean producers in the United States have collectively raised the price of soybean products for export, and the mention is 30%.

"I reckon the American guy will hit the snake with the stick and make an inch of it." Hu Yue analyzed calmly.

Jin Yang, who had a headache, frowned and asked, "Old Hu, how much soybeans can your rural cooperative produce this year?"

Hu Yue shook his head helplessly: "Heijiang Province is the largest soybean production area in China, accounting for 36% of the country's output. Last year, a total of 473 million tons of soybeans were produced. This year, the glass greenhouse renovation project is completed, and it is estimated that the output can be increased to 1000 tons. It can be increased to 1500 million tons next year, and the total national output can be increased to about 3000 million tons next year."

At present, the domestic soybean import volume is very high, reaching as much as 8000 million tons, and the self-sufficiency rate of domestic soybean is only about 17%.

Jin Yang's face was solemn: "This is not possible. Next year, domestic soybeans can only reach 35% of the share. We still need to rely on the international market for more than 65% of our soybeans."

Liu Qinghe, who had been silent all this time, suddenly narrowed his eyes and said, "That's fine."

"Old Liu, what's your idea?" Jin Yang asked hastily.

Turning on the computer, lines of text appeared on the projection screen. Looking at these plans, both Jin Yang and Hu Yue felt a little cold sweat.

"Would it be..."

Liu Qinghe clenched his fists fiercely and said, "Anyway, these are foreign-funded enterprises, and if you want to blame them, blame them for being born in the wrong place."

Jin Yang and Hu Yue looked at each other and made up their minds.

Huanong Group acted quickly, merging and integrating some oil extraction companies within the system, and established three wholly-owned subsidiaries: Heijiang Edible Oil, Ranch New Oil, and Jiangnan New Oil.

On the one hand, rapidly expand the soybean planting area, raising the total soybean output to 2400 million tons this year and 5000 million tons next year.

On the other hand, to establish a variety of edible oils, in addition to soybean oil in vegetable oils, the proportion of rapeseed oil, sunflower oil, peanut oil, and linseed oil must also be increased.

Animal oils that are rarely used in China should also be included in the overall overall plan, such as butter, lard, sheep oil, poultry oil and the like.

In this way, the proportion of soybean oil in the domestic edible oil market is reduced.

At present, in the domestic edible oil market, the consumption share of soybean oil is 41%, followed by palm oil at 22%, rapeseed oil at 21%, and other edible oils at 16%.

Among them, 95% of soybean oil is pressed from imported soybeans, and 100% of palm oil is imported, because palm is a tropical plant.

In the plan of Huanong Group, it is expected to increase the proportion of animal oil to 20%, reduce the proportion of soybean oil to below 25%, and increase the proportion of peanut oil, sunflower oil and linseed oil.

Diversify edible oil as much as possible to prevent the proportion of a single variety from exceeding 20%, which can effectively kill the structural crisis.

Especially the traditional Chinese lard, the Chinese people seldom use lard now, and many people don't like the fat in pork.

The Huanong Group simply purchased the pork suet and the fat from the meat joint factory, and carried out secondary deep processing to turn it into pork butter similar to butter.

A multi-pronged approach to suppress the edible oil market can also effectively balance the market proportions of various edible oils. As for doing so, some oil extraction companies will die.

Huanong Group has already prepared a merger and acquisition plan, focusing its firepower on killing foreign-funded companies such as Goldfish Oil first, and then injecting capital into domestic oil-extracting companies.

As for the US soybean producers raising prices, let them mention that Huanong Group just took this opportunity to fight a price war and wipe out those foreign-funded oil extraction companies.

With its own agricultural production base, fast-expanding rural cooperatives, and huge and cheap electricity, Huanong Group doesn't believe it can't beat these foreigners.

Of course, the plan does not have to be completed all at once, but is divided into five-year plans.

Chapter 149 New Countryside ([-])

Shanmei City, Qinglongtou Village.

Inside the glass greenhouse, the ten-acre strawberry greenhouse is full of strawberry varieties such as Zhangji, Hongyan, and Sweet Charlie. Yang Ye and several agricultural workers are busy in the greenhouse.

After two renovations, the strawberry greenhouse is divided into two large floors, each of which is divided into five small floors.

The planting density of single-layer strawberries inside is very high, twice as high as that in the general southern region, and almost the same as the density of strawberries in greenhouses in the northern region.

If the temperature and humidity control of the greenhouse with this density is not good, a large area of ​​rot will appear immediately. Obviously, the glass greenhouse in Qinglongtou Village has very strong temperature and humidity control, which can simulate the most suitable planting environment for strawberries.

Of course, this kind of high-density planting requires strict temperature control, humidity control and ventilation, which consumes a lot of electricity.

Compared with ordinary greenhouses, the unit energy consumption is nearly 10 to 12 times higher, but if there is effort, there must be gains.

草莓在室外种植，一般单位亩产在年产2吨左右；而在南方的温室里面，单位亩产在3～4吨左右；北方地区的温室可以达到7～10吨。

The fully-controlled glass greenhouse can achieve an annual output of 70-100 tons per mu.

Although the unit energy consumption is 10-12 times higher, the problem is that the internal electricity price of rural cooperatives in eastern Guangdong is 0.2 gross per kWh.

One time and one time, it is equivalent to no increase in electricity bills, and the advantage of a fully-controlled greenhouse is that it can reasonably reduce the use of pesticides and fertilizers.

If the construction cost of the glass greenhouse is not counted, the overall cost is only about one-third of that of ordinary greenhouses, and the overall cost of glass greenhouses, Huanong Group intends to share among the product sales for five years, so the total unit cost is only 50 of that of ordinary greenhouses. %about.

And as the cost of glass greenhouses continues to recover, there is room for this cost to decline.
