Chapter 1012 Agricultural Development Planning
Wang He took out a few documents and distributed them to everyone, and then said: "This is the development plan for the construction of large pastoral areas sent by the Animal Husbandry Department of the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, which focuses on the animal husbandry industry in Australia in modern society, and hopes to learn from the company's development of large-scale specialized and intensive state farms and family ranches."
Australia has excellent conditions for the development of animal husbandry, with a vast grassland area, excellent livestock races, convenient transportation, and a developed food industry. These conditions have made Australia the world's number one exporter of wool and beef. The number of sheep in Australia has been more than 100 million for a long time, with five sheep per capita, and it is the country with the largest number of sheep in the world.
In Australia, farms are privately owned, often a family is a farm, with specialized large-scale farms as the main body, and the number of concurrent farms is increasing, and Australian agriculture implements highly specialized and socialized production. Large farms are generally engaged in grain farming, sheep farming, sheep and cattle farming, or a combination of the above two or three.
In addition, on the basis of the development of large pastoral areas, we can also develop dairy and livestock industry in an appropriate amount, choose areas with convenient transportation, fertile soil close to towns, and conducive to pasture and forage crops, vigorously develop dairy farming, produce milk powder, butter and cheese, and enrich the company's dietary structure.
At present, the Far East Company has basically controlled large areas of grassland in Horqin, ********, Monan, Mobei, Moxi and Hetao areas in Lingnan, and can raise a large number of horses, cattle, sheep, camels and other livestock. Every year, it can provide a large number of meat, milk, wool, skins and other animal products and a variety of abundant and rare wild animals and plants, and protecting, utilizing and building these grasslands is not only of great economic significance, but also has great political significance and national defense significance. ”
Han Shuanglin put down the information in his hand and thought for a while: "In addition to the development plan of farms and pastoral areas, the company should also vigorously develop plantation agriculture. During my research in Luzon and the islands of the South Sea. A number of information on plantations in modern society were specifically found. Plantation agriculture is large-scale, intensive commercial agriculture that grows a single cash crop in the tropics, and is widely distributed in Latin America, Southeast Asia, South Asia, and sub-Saharan Africa.
Plantation agriculture tends to be engaged in large-scale production, characterized by large-scale, intensive farms that grow a single cash crop. The park has a complete set of production and living facilities, many plantations not only have agricultural and transportation machinery, but also the park's road system, agricultural products processing plant, agricultural machinery maintenance factory, power supply and water supply, education, health facilities.
Regions like the South Seas, Luzon and Indochina have many special plant resources, such as coffee, cocoa, tea, bananas, pineapples, mangoes. Oil palm, sisal, tobacco, cotton and jute, which occupy an important place among the world's cash crops. And there are a lot of indigenous people there who can serve as cheap labor, and we already have all the conditions to develop tropical plantations. ”
In addition, our Far East controls the North Pacific fishing grounds, including the Hokkaido fishing grounds, the Zhoushan fishing grounds, and many fishing grounds on the west coast of North America. There are also many inland rivers and lakes, which also contain a large number of freshwater fish resources, coupled with the company's agriculture and forestry department has been promoting the popularization of fish pond fish farming and rice field fish farming technology, so that our Far East Company has the conditions for large-scale development of fisheries.
Abundant fishery resources. So that the Far East has a wide variety of aquatic products, not only can be directly supplied to people for consumption, but also can actively develop fresh, frozen, canned, salted, dried and other processed products, as well as processed into feed fishmeal, industrial fish oil, medicinal cod liver oil and other comprehensive utilization products, the prospect can not be ignored. ”
Gao Jianguo couldn't help but laugh when he heard everyone's words.
"It seems that the agricultural resources of our Far East Company still have great potential for future development. Large-scale rice cultivation and tropical plantation agriculture can be developed in South Asia, Indochina and Southeast Asia, and large pastures can be developed in the grasslands of the north. Large-scale cereal agriculture can be developed in the Northeast and the Outer Northeast.
At present, we should do a good job in the future agricultural development plan and explore the agricultural development path of our Far East. In the course of development, we will continue to accumulate experience, train grass-roots management personnel and grass-roots technical personnel, and then we will enter the Central Plains and then immigrate to these areas on a large scale, gradually forming an agricultural development model that combines large-scale state-run specialization, intensive farms, and family farms. ”
Li Ming also added: "Although the prospects of our agricultural resources in the Far East are broad, the development potential is huge. However, supporting resources must also be planned quickly. Including a large number of agricultural machinery, forestry equipment and utensils, animal husbandry equipment and utensils, fishery equipment and utensils, grain and oil processing machinery, feed processing machinery, slaughtering and meat processing equipment and agricultural and sideline products processing equipment, keeping up with the pace of the company's development of various agricultural resources.
Moreover, related industries should also be developed, such as chemical fertilizers, pesticides, feed and feed additives, food processing, meat processing, fresh products, frozen products, canning, salting, drying and other enterprises, but also immediately start to establish. Only by forming a perfect and systematic industrial system can we better promote the development of agriculture in the Far East. ”
The more everyone talked, the more excited they became, and the secretary brought dinner to the conference room in a hurry, until the next morning, when the sky was getting brighter, several people reacted, it turned out that they had not closed their eyes for a day and a night. But they didn't get tired in the slightest, and after a bite of breakfast in the conference room, they continued to discuss it all morning before they went back to make up for sleep.
Two days later, the board of directors of the Far East held an extraordinary meeting and summoned the heads of various departments of the company's agriculture and forestry department to attend the meeting, as well as some agricultural experts and technicians, as well as some grassroots managers and technicians in Shenyang.
After two days of discussions, several members of the Standing Committee of the Far East Board of Directors studied a plan for the future development of agriculture in the Far East, which was submitted to the Board of Directors Committee for discussion with the Standing Committee members and the heads of various departments of the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry.
Everyone is very supportive of the plan submitted by several members of the Standing Committee of the Board of Directors in the general direction. However, there is a certain disagreement on how to implement this long-term plan for the future of agriculture.
However, Li Ming and several members of the Standing Committee are very pleased, at least the members of the board of directors and the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry are generally more supportive of their research plan, as for some differences, it is nothing, after all, such a big plan, how the company will implement it in the next step, it really needs to be carefully considered. (To be continued.) )
