Chapter 189: Shale Farm
After inspecting this place, early the next morning, Wu Hao and the others immediately came to their main destination this time, an intelligent unmanned farm.
And what made Wu Hao speechless was that Xu Xiaoya and they also followed them, saying that they wanted to investigate in advance, but in fact, they were here to investigate the situation. After all, the follow-up operation of agricultural and sideline products of this farm is entrusted to the A Li side, so they are also very concerned about the construction of the farm.
After half an hour of travel in the desert, the off-road convoy finally arrived at their farm.
It's said to be a farm, but it's actually a sandy field. The preliminary engineering team has been stationed here to begin the leveling of the entire farm and the construction of related facilities.
"Mr. Wu!" When a dark-faced young man in a straw hat saw them get out of the car, he immediately brought someone to greet them.
"Xiuming?" Wu Hao looked at the dark-faced and weather-beaten young man in front of him and said with some uncertainty. You must know that two months ago, this Du Xiuming in front of him was still white and fat in the laboratory, why did he become like this after not seeing him for two months.
"It's me, Mr. Wu, who welcomes you to our Shale Farm." Du Xiuming held Wu Hao's hand and smiled.
"Sand Le Farm?" Xu Xiaoya, who was beside her, wondered.
Du Xiuming nodded and explained with a smile: "It's gravel, but the word 'stone' that was gravel was removed by us, so it's called sand."
From this literal you know, there is nothing to be found here except sand is sand.
In fact, there is also a private name, such as silly, silly music, etc., which is also more suitable for the living conditions of our people here. Every day, in addition to being tired and silly at work, the rest of the time is also in a silly daze, and there is no other entertainment to play time. ”
Hahahaha...... Everyone laughed when they heard this.
"Good work."
Wu Hao patted Du Xiuming on the shoulder, and then shouted at everyone: "On behalf of the company, I would like to express my condolences to everyone, you have worked hard." This time, I brought some condolences to everyone, which is in the back car, which is a little compensation for everyone's hard work. ”
"Thank you, Mr. Wu!"
Wu Hao waved his hand to interrupt everyone's voice: "I should thank you, without your perseverance here, our project would not have been able to take root so quickly."
This project is a major attempt for us in the field of new high-tech agriculture, and it is also an important measure for us to assume social responsibility and serve the public.
We hope that this project will be a success, so that we can use this technology to completely change the current situation of arable land and manpower shortage in our country.
It can also find a solid and feasible development path for the development of our domestic agriculture, provide more people with assured and high-quality agricultural and sideline products, and ensure our domestic food safety. ”
Of course, these are big words, and they are suitable for public speech. Although Wu Hao doesn't like it and is not good at it, in such a scene, as the leader of the team this time, he has to say something.
After saying this, Wu Hao said to Du Xiuming: "Let's go, take us around." ”
"Okay, this way, please." Du Xiuming nodded, and then took Wu Hao and them into the farm.
The so-called farm station, in fact, is a few sets of simple board houses and tents built in a relatively flat area, and there are some building materials piled up next to it, but the construction site is still digging the foundation and has not yet started.
In such a sandy building, the foundation must be strong, especially for large buildings. It is important to know that the sandy ground is relatively loose, and if the foundation is not done well, it is easy to settle or tilt or even collapse due to the instability of the foundation.
This is the planned construction area of our factory and warehouse, and we plan to build five factories here and ten large warehouses for the production needs of our farm. Du Xiuming said to Wu Hao and them.
Wu Hao looked at the busy construction site, and then asked Du Xiuming, "Is the control center also built here?" ”
Du Xiuming nodded, then took out a planning drawing and signaled to everyone.
"The control center, the signal tower and other supporting facilities are built here. Topographically, it is located at the highest point of the entire farm, which is convenient for managing the entire farm.
In the future, there will be an asphalt road leading from here to the Iron Gate, which will then be connected to the provincial road. In this way, the agricultural and sideline products produced on our farm can be transported by road after being packaged in the factory. ”
"How many acres does this farm occupy in total?" Xu Xiaoya looked around with sunglasses and asked.
Du Xiuming said with a smile: "Our first phase is planned to be 600 hectares, and the second phase is expanded to 1,500 hectares. As for the third phase and subsequent expansion projects, it depends on the development of the farm. ”
Xu Xiaoya nodded when she heard this, there are more than 20,000 acres of 1,500 hectares, which is not big, but it is not small. In terms of early development, this scale is still relatively appropriate.
"What about the specific plan, what to plant?" Xu Xiaoya squatted down, grabbed a handful of soil, and looked at it.
Du Xiuming shook his head, and then said with a wry smile: "As for what to plant, there is a lot of controversy among experts now, but judging from the current situation, everyone is still more inclined to plant drought-tolerant crops such as wheat or corn and sorghum first.
Moreover, this kind of crops have relatively low land requirements, which is suitable for the actual situation of our farm just starting. ”
"These three things are not very competitive in the market." Xu Xiaoya looked at Wu Hao while speaking, in fact, the meaning is also very clear, that is, the added value of these crops is relatively low, and they can't make much money.
Wu Hao naturally understood what she meant, and then smiled, then looked around and said, "At the beginning, there must be a process of adaptation."
I don't think it's necessary to argue, anyway, there are so many fields, plant some of everything, experiment, and finally we will analyze what can be planted here based on the actual situation.
At present, our most important task is to seize the time to complete the infrastructure construction and complete the land leveling work of the 600 hectares before next year's spring ploughing, and we must not delay next year's spring plowing plan. ”
After hearing his words, Du Xiuming showed a worried look: "The land leveling problem is not big, and the construction of the factory warehouse and the control center is also no problem.
I am more worried about two points, one is that the laying and construction of the entire sprinkler irrigation and drip irrigation system is time-consuming and laborious, such a large area, coupled with the impact of the harsh winter climate, I am afraid that the time is a little tight. ”
Seeing that Wu Hao and the others nodded, Du Xiuming continued: "Second, that is the commissioning of our series of mechanical equipment and intelligent systems. You must know that it is not long before next year's spring ploughing, the relevant machinery and equipment are not in place, the research and development project team of the intelligent system has not yet been built, and there is still a lot of preparatory work to be done, so the pressure is really great in such a short period of time. ”
