1024 Laboratory
Although the total area of the Cocos Islands is 14.2 square kilometers, there is not much land area that can be developed, and the area of plantations is not large if the uninhabited coral reefs are removed.
The suburbs of Perth are all high-quality farms, a full 3,500 acres, all of which are high-quality pastures, and these 3,500 acres are also the private property of the Clunis Ross family, and compared to the Cocos Islands, which are far from the mainland, John III is very satisfied with Donne's arrangement.
Donn is more satisfied, although the 3,500 acres of land in the suburbs of Paz is not cheap, but compared to a high-quality transit station, even the cost is worth it, the Cocos Islands can only develop a single plantation in the hands of the Clunis Ross family, relying on the collection of dried coconut for profit, but in the hands of Australian companies, the value of the Cocos Islands is infinitely magnified.
It should be noted here that the topography of the Cocos Islands is similar to that of Zheng Ho Island, and the periphery is also a ring of coral reefs, with a huge central lagoon in the center.
In this way, the Cocos Islands, like Zhenghe Island, have the potential to become a natural harbor, and of course, Australian companies need to make more scientific changes to the Cocos Islands so that the Cocos Islands can play a greater role.
Australian companies also have a lot of advantages compared to when Adan developed the Adan Islands in the past.
With the experience gained from the development of the Adan Islands, the first crews to come to the Cocos Islands were all workers from Christian Construction, who were to build a port and airstrip in the Cocos Islands, which was to be completed within this year.
The construction of the airport is very simple, the current aircraft, the requirements for the airport is not high, as long as the runway is basically flat, it can meet the requirements of large transport aircraft to take off and land.
Ports are much more difficult, and the Cocos Islands are in a similar situation to the Adan Islands, where almost all building materials have to be imported from outside, but compared to the Adam Islands, which are far from the mainland, which are only 800 kilometers from the Straits Settlements, it is still much easier to ship construction materials from the East Indies to the Cocos Islands than it was from southern Africa to the Adan Islands.
Regardless of Donne's work, Roque valued the development of Victoria and Dias more than the Australian company's investment.
In fact, after the occupation of Victoria and Dias in southern Africa, the development of Victoria and Dias had already begun, and most of the new immigrants after 1916 were resettled in Victoria and Dias, many of them bought land in Victoria and Dias to become new farmers, and some of them could only work for the large farms in Victoria and Dias because they could not obtain loans from the RAND Bank.
The big farms here are those that often exceed 100,000 acres in size.
There are many such farms in Victoria and Dias, and they are basically the property of large enterprises such as South African companies or the Nyasaland Agricultural Company, which has more than 1.5 million hectares of farms in Victoria, which translates to about 15,000 square kilometres, and the Nyasaland Agricultural Company is about the same.
Gao Wei is a graduate of the College of Agriculture of the University of Nyasaland, and now the College of Agriculture of the University of Nyasaland, which has been separated from the University of Nyasaland to become the College of Agriculture of Nyasaland.
"Gao, you're late, I'm sorry I don't have excellent graduates for you, and even the average grades are left." Harrison McIntosh thought that Gao Wei was here to ask for someone.
Harrison McIntosh has a good relationship with Gao Wei, who is not very good at professional skills, but has excellent organizational skills, so he can be the head of Nyasaland Agricultural Company in Victoria.
Nyasaland Agricultural College now has about 600 graduates a year, a number that may seem like a lot, but in fact it is completely insufficient for a dozen states and a total area of 5.5 million square kilometres in southern Africa.
Every year during the graduation season, the graduates of the Nyasaland Agricultural College will be rushed to the federal government at all levels and major agricultural companies, and there is no need to worry about work problems, many parents send their children to the Agricultural College to study, in order to better run their own farms after graduation, only to find that their children will not return to their own farm work at all, and the outside world has a broader world waiting for them.
The same is true of the other institutions that have spun off from the University of Nyasaland, although there are now more and more students in Southern Africa, but the high standard of education at the University of Nyasaland is recognized by all, and all the institutions of higher education in Nyasaland together now produce nearly 30,000 graduates a year, who have been in short supply in the job market for more than a decade.
"Professor, I'm not looking for you, I'm hoping to promote the cooperation between the College of Agriculture and the Nyasaland Agricultural Company, which has 1.8 million hectares of land in Victoria, forests, pastures, lakes, swamps, all kinds of terrain—" If Gao Wei wants to be a person, he will not come to Harrison Mackintosh, and it is more appropriate to go directly to the head office.
A considerable number of the graduates of Nyasaland Agricultural College each year choose to work for Nyasaland Agricultural Corporation, which is relatively rich in human resources.
"Wait, Gao, our Agricultural College has been cooperating with your Nyasaland Agricultural Company for more than ten years." Harrison McIntosh was dissatisfied with Cushman & Wakefield's performance, and when Gao Wei was a student at the College of Agriculture, he interned at the Nyasaland Agricultural Company, and then worked for the Nyasaland Agricultural Company as a natural fit.
"Professor, I know about these situations, but what I want to say is that I hope that the College of Agriculture can have more in-depth cooperation with the Nyasaland Agricultural Company in Victoria, for example, the College of Agriculture can consider relocating some of its laboratories to Victoria, or even some of its teaching work in Victoria." Gao Wei is demanding, this is to hope that the College of Agriculture can open a branch in Victoria.
"Hehehe, Gao, this is impossible, if this can be done, the branches of the Agricultural College have already spread all over Southern Africa." Harrison McIntosh smiled wryly, he also wanted to open branches all over southern Africa, but the conditions did not allow it.
Nyasaland Agricultural College now has a total of 15 laboratories, which are responsible for breeding and improvement, introduction and innovation, etc., and the work content of the laboratories is very complex, basically covering agronomy, horticulture, plant protection, resources and environment, animal husbandry, veterinary, aquaculture, and other disciplines.
According to the plan of the College of Agriculture, this year the College of Agriculture will set up two new laboratories for research in food science and engineering and agricultural engineering.
Although the industrial development of southern Africa is very good, the federal government's emphasis on agriculture has never been relaxed.
Southern Africa is still an agricultural country, farm management is very important for southern Africa, southern African agricultural products during the world war strongly supported the Entente to defeat the Allies, after the end of the world war, the relief and reconstruction of Europe, southern African agricultural products are still playing an important role.
While agricultural products are selling well in Europe, agricultural products from southern Africa are also facing competition from American agricultural products.
During the World War, the United States did not play a significant role in another time and space, and Southern Africa completely replaced the United States as the mainstay of the Entente.
After the end of the world war, American products continued to try to open up the European market, but they were also stubbornly sniped by southern African products, and the United States can now only rely on its price advantage to dump in some areas that southern Africa does not pay attention to.
For example, the Balkans, for example, Russia, for example, North Africa.
Now Roque no longer cares about the specific operation of the farm, but focuses on a higher level, food science and engineering, and agricultural engineering, which is a useful attempt by Roque, and now that Southern Africa has solved the problem of having enough to eat, the next step is to start researching to eat well.
"Professor, I'm talking about part, part—" Gao Wei emphasized that the Victoria branch was not qualified to compete with the head office for resources, but the head office ate meat, and the branch also had to drink some soup.
In the past, the development of southern Africa was dominated by the three northern states, and now the three northern states of the Transvaal and Rhodesia have gradually fallen behind, and the strength of Nyasaland is almost unbeatable, crowning the entire southern Africa.
Roque now has to maintain Nyasaland's leading position, but he can't ignore the economic development of the other states, and when Ard leaves office, Roque is likely to succeed Ade as prime minister of southern Africa, when Roque will face even more pressure.
It doesn't matter, there is pressure to have motivation, now Europe, with its own strength can still rebuild, if there is another world war, then European countries will lose the strength to rebuild, then southern Africa will play a greater role.
Now during this time, Roque has to work hard to integrate the resources of Nyasaland, continue to improve the scientific and technological strength of Nyasaland, maintain Nyasaland's leading position in scientific research, and then promote the whole of southern Africa to continue to move forward.
The addition of laboratories in the Faculty of Agriculture is just a microcosm of the fact that research institutions and institutions of higher learning throughout Nyasaland are adapting to the needs of future development during this time.
