Chapter 300: Participate in a good harvest
One ginseng farm has an annual shipment of 10,000 to 20,000 feet, and an annual output of nearly 300,000 jin of water ginseng.
The ones shipped this year happened to be fertilized with bean cake water last year, and the output is expected to be higher.
With such a large output, it would be impossible if they were all squeezed into production around the autumnal equinox.
So just entered September, as soon as the venue started to distribute the participants, the processing factory also started to work.
Yichangchang processing factory is just to the north of the factory, covering a large area.
This place is much stronger than the processing factory in the second brigade. There are steaming ginseng tanks, dryers, ginseng brushing machines and other large-scale mechanical equipment, worth more than 400,000 yuan.
Other supporting facilities are also very complete, and the venue is larger.
Every autumn, all the employees of a ginseng site, together with their family members, are mobilized to start making ginseng products.
Even so, the manpower is not enough, and some temporary workers need to be found from outside.
Even Donggang junior high school and high school students will go to the processing factory to work for a few days at this time to earn class fees.
For students of this age, going to school is not only about studying, but also participating in labor. The school has a special labor class.
Chop firewood and burn the stove in winter, clear snow, plant and shovel the ground in spring, weed and clean up the playground in summer, harvest the ground in autumn, chop corn and beat beans.
The students don't fall behind in any of these tasks, they have to do them all.
Waiting for another two years, the school-run ginseng field will appear, and students will have to go to the ginseng field to pick ginseng seeds and weeds.
From the first day of participation, not only Xu Shiyan and others went up the mountain, but also Li Bingzhuo and Lin Qiyue, just to prove the effect of top dressing with bean cake water.
In the past two years, the way of covering ginseng has changed again.
From the previous bat board felt paper, to yellow transparent plastic film, curtains, bow strips, etc., from a single-sided shed to a small arched shed.
The yellow polyvinyl chloride ginseng film has a width of nearly two meters, is relatively soft, has strong light transmission, and has a short anti-aging time.
Currently, relevant departments are studying blue polyethylene film, which has better anti-aging performance than yellow one.
The ginseng shed has been updated in the first ginseng field, which is currently covered with yellow polyvinyl chloride. As for the agricultural team, it has not been used yet, mainly because the ginseng film is too expensive.
This kind of shed can save you a lot of worry when you evacuate the shed. You only need to untie the upper layer and bow strip, and roll up the plastic sheet and the lower curtain, so the work is very fast.
The two people in front withdraw the shed, and the person behind cuts the ginseng leaves with a sickle, and then they can start ginseng.
"Secretary Lin, look quickly, this year's clubs are really good, and they are generally bigger than previous years.
After a while, we will produce a string and weigh it as a whole, so we can try to find out how much the production increase has been. I feel that a 20% increase in production is no problem. "
As soon as it started to grow there, everyone noticed that the growth of ginseng this year was unusual, and it was obviously bigger than previous years.
"Hurry up, tell everyone, hurry up and work, and quickly measure the output later."
Lin Qiyue looked at the stick sticking out from the ground, and said excitedly.
It costs at least a dozen yuan to increase the production of one catty of water ginseng by one zhang. At present, it is absolutely impossible to increase the production of one catty by one zhang.
One participant has shipped nearly 20,000 feet this year. If this is calculated as a whole, how much will the increase in production and income be?
It would be exciting to change to anyone, let alone Lin Qiyue as the secretary of the field.
His eyes are full of mallets now, and his mind is full of how much income can be increased this year.
With this money, the site has to buy something more, and the workers will pay more benefits.
Secretary Lin has spoken, why don’t the workers below hurry up? So everyone speeded up to participate.
It didn't take long, a string of about forty feet came out, the sticks were shaken to clean the soil, and they were packed into sacks.
Someone brought a large steelyard over there, and a few strong young men carried the scale and began to weigh the sacks one by one. There was another person beside him, who was holding a notebook to record.
Not long after, the statistics showed that a string of forty-two-foot sticks yielded a total of 850 catties of water ginseng, and an average of one meter can yield a little more than 20 catties of water ginseng.
As soon as the data was reported to Secretary Lin, the cadres present were all overjoyed.
"Secretary, if all follow this ratio, our participation will increase production by 70,000 to 80,000 catties this year.
My goodness, we could make millions more just from this. "
It’s not like I don’t know, but I’m surprised that just top dressing has such a good effect.
How about waiting until the year after next? Even base fertilizer plus top dressing, how much will the yield increase?
"Consultant Xu, you are amazing, this trick is really easy to use."
Lin Qiyue excitedly held Xu Shiyan's hand, not knowing what to say.
In the past, I just heard about it, even Donggang Commune, the Second Brigade, and even the county newspapers, but after all, I never saw it with my own eyes, and I couldn’t feel that feeling at all.
At this moment, piles of clubs are in front of you, and groups of numbers prove the effect of bean cake top dressing.
Through the numbers, you can see the huge benefits. Who is not excited? That joy cannot be expressed in words.
Comparatively speaking, Xu Shiyan is very calm, after all, he has experienced this several times.
Last year when the production of the second team was high, Yu Shouguang and others were so excited that they almost knelt down and cried.
"As long as we continue to improve the technology, the output will increase. Take your time and don't rush."
There are still ways, but at present, it is not suitable to use it anymore, otherwise there will be a phenomenon that the harvest will hurt farmers in a good year.
Lin Qiyue is also such a big secretary who participated in the event. He has seen too many big scenes, and the excitement was only temporary, and soon subsided.
So he directed the people to continue working, while he, Xu Shiyan and several other cadres present went to a side meeting to study the next ginseng processing plan.
Originally, Xu Shiyan proposed to trial-produce ginseng honey slices and Changbaishan red ginseng.
Lin Qiyue always felt that these two kinds of products were likely to be produced and faced the problem of no market, so he didn't dare to promise too much, and only talked about a small amount of trial production.
However, at the moment when he saw the production data just now, Lin Qiyue made up his mind to support Xu Shiyan's proposal and must research new products.
Even if it is impossible to generate income in the short term, new products must be produced.
"Xiao Xu, the few of us held a meeting to discuss and decided to allocate 30,000 catties of fresh ginseng for your experiment this year.
I hope you will not disappoint our expectations of you, and make sure to make a blockbuster product that belongs to us. "
Judging from the current situation, it is not a problem to increase the production of ginseng land by 70,000 to 80,000 jin, and allocate a part of it for experimentation. Even if it is unsuccessful, it will not have much impact on the overall situation.
Xu Shiyan became happy when he heard this.
"Leaders, rest assured that our technical team will definitely not disappoint the expectations of the leaders. We will definitely be able to overcome difficulties and make the products we want."
No matter who you are, you all hope to gain the trust of others, and you all hope to have the opportunity to show your strengths.
Before in the second team, without such conditions, Xu Shiyan would not have such great ambitions.
But it's different now, he has to make some achievements to prove that Lin Qiyue made an exception to poach him to participate in the competition, and it was the right choice.
"Okay, young people must have this energy, work hard, we are very optimistic about you and the technical team.
Work hard, overcome difficulties, and make achievements, and your rewards are indispensable. "
Lin Qiyue patted Xu Shiyan on the shoulder and encouraged him.
