Chapter 174: Clover Storm Alfalfa Agriculture and Animal Husbandry's main business is in the Northwest, and its main production base is extremely , the outside world knows very little about it. If it weren’t for CCTV’s report, many central and coastal provinces would not even know that such a company existed. The last time alfalfa attracted attention was because its effect in improving saline-alkali land was indeed amazing, which inspired the people's love for the land. But when people mention Jiuquan, their first impression is still the satellite launch base. As for agriculture, especially in the field of forage, to be honest, many people in developed areas don’t know that this thing can be sold for money. Therefore, when outsiders saw that Alfalfa's revenue reached 2004 million yuan in , they couldn't help but show surprise. What is particularly outrageous is that the income from forage is million yuan, which is higher than the income from seeds! At that time, Muhe had only been established for two and a half years! But Alfalfa's revenue growth this year was even faster, with a single crop of 10 acres of forage earning million yuan in the second quarter. Before the end of the third quarter, Jinta Grassland had earned more than 2 million yuan from forage grass. At this time, people discovered that alfalfa forage in Wuyuan had also gone into production.
Plus the income from grass seeds, Muhe conservatively estimates annual revenue of 16 billion yuan and profit of 8 million yuan! People in the business and financial circles who were paying attention to this financing were stunned. "Are you sure it's not fake?" “This is an announcement issued by China Development Bank.” “Is forage so profitable?” "Who did you sell the alfalfa hay to?" Driven by curiosity, people began to dig deeper, and various traditional media and online media began to pay attention. The data that subsequently emerged from customs shocked everyone. "Sold it to the Japs?" "My goodness, $410 a ton, and 17 tons were exported in just the third quarter, how much does that cost?" "6970 million US dollars, that's million yuan!" "There were also 7 tons in the second quarter, corresponding to the million yuan in the announcement." “This is huge profit!” The cost of growing forage grass can be easily calculated. It is slightly higher than grain, but its harvest period is long. One season can last for two to three years, or even three to five years. Even if we manage it more carefully, the annual planting cost is only four or five hundred yuan. Compared with the price of more than three thousand yuan per ton, isn't it a huge profit? Even the employees of Jiahe Group still couldn't believe it. In Jiuquan's office, employees were talking among themselves during their break. "Brother Dong, last time the Japanese placed a large order of 26 tons, I said that Alfalfa Agriculture and Animal Husbandry would take off this year and its revenue would exceed 10 billion, but you said it was a bit uncertain." "I've made a mistake. Who knew that Alfalfa Farming and Animal Husbandry was so well hidden!"
"The media's propaganda to the outside world focused on the improvement of saline-alkali land, but they had no idea that the economic benefits would be so terrifying." "That's awesome!" "Both Muhe and Tianhe have seen explosive performance. Jiahe Group is really going to take off!" "I was wondering why the city was so easy to talk to. Jiuquan and Jiayuguan actually agreed to give the Gobi Desert to Jiahe at the same time." The financial report of Alfalfa Agriculture and Animal Husbandry has never been made public. Except for Alfalfa No. 1 seeds, most of its forage grass is processed and sold directly to the island market. But through this financing. People have discovered that alfalfa can not only transform the appearance of saline-alkali land, but also grow gold from saline-alkali land. All sectors of society are eager to take action, and various media are competing to report and reprint the news. "A large foreign trade order of 26 tons of forage grass earned Alfalfa Agriculture and Animal Husbandry nearly 6 million yuan in foreign exchange." "Alfalfa Agriculture and Animal Husbandry focuses on overseas markets and has signed many foreign trade orders." "Northwest forage grass is exported to island countries, earning huge amounts of foreign exchange." “Why did China Development Bank give up its 10% stake in Luoyang Potassium Co., Ltd.? It’s worth it!” The trend of public opinion also quickly shifted. From initially criticizing China Development Bank for exchanging 10% of Luo Potassium shares + million in cash for only 5% of Alfalfa Agriculture and Animal Husbandry's shares, the discussion has turned into whether the deal is worth it. Those who support Guotou Luo Potassium argue that the country is rich in resources, has a complete range of mineral resources including potassium salt, copper, nickel, gold, silver, etc., and has huge potential. Those who support Alfalfa explain that it has already achieved high revenue, high growth and high profits, and that China Development Bank's goal for Luo Potassium is to achieve an annual output value of 2009 billion yuan by 16. Alfalfa is expected to achieve an output value of 16 billion yuan this year. The two sides are in a stalemate. Then it turned into a denunciation of Guoliang and Nongfa Group, "State-owned asset hunter, Guoliang Group has invested in Alfalfa Agriculture and Animal Husbandry!" State-owned assets and private enterprises compete for profits. The popularity continues to rise, and the extremely high profits have attracted the attention of many investors. Many people who don’t understand the grass industry market want to give it a try. Alfalfa can be grown on saline-alkali land, so why can't I? Some local governments are also planning whether to promote the development of the alfalfa industry. Wuyuan, county government conference room. The county party committee leaders issued a death order to the Agriculture Bureau, Water Conservancy Bureau and all townships. "We will go all out to speed up the improvement of saline-alkali land, and strive to complete the improvement of 50 mu of medium and low-yield land in the county this year!" "It's been almost a year, and only 200,000 mu of saline-alkali land has been improved. What's the problem? The second phase of the alfalfa project has not been pushed forward because Wuyuan is lagging behind."
"The 200,000 mu of saline-alkali land improved by Alfalfa in Wuyuan has been put into production. If you delay any longer, you won't even be able to drink soup." "If anyone plants sunflowers for me again, I will use machinery to turn them over!" Departments at all levels responded in agreement that alfalfa’s profitability had caught their attention. The county party committee leaders calmed down a little. Wuyuan has a large area of saline-alkali land and medium- and low-yield farmland. It is a remarkable achievement to improve hundreds of thousands of acres of medium- and low-yield farmland and saline-alkali land in one year. "Can we harvest the alfalfa that we ordinary people plant this year?" "Yes, like alfalfa, can it be harvested twice?" "How can it be the same? Alfalfa is an improved saline-alkali wasteland. It was planted last year. Why did you wait until this year to plant it?" The county party committee leader couldn't help but want to scold someone, and gave the opportunity to Wuyuan, but Wuyuan almost missed it. As far as he knows, many counties and cities are already planning to promote the development of the alfalfa industry. With the increase in domestic market demand, the profits in the export market are even more enviable. "How about the two crops of forage this year?" "The increase in income is gratifying. The forage grass is mainly purchased by the alfalfa factory. In the first year, the yield per mu is expected to be tons, and the income per mu is 1800 yuan, which means an increase of nearly yuan per mu." “This income is good for low- and medium-yield farms.” Jiuquan, glorious seed industry. When it comes to who in the outside world knows the most about the development of alfalfa agriculture and animal husbandry, Wu Feng would undoubtedly be the first. As the general manager of Huihuang Seed Industry, Guo Yang once invited Wu Feng to be the general manager of Muhe, but he refused. He was a truck driver. He has been able to get to where he is today thanks to the appreciation of his boss. Huihuang and Muhe are both in the same grave. When Huihuang was still struggling in the grass industry, a young man plunged into the pit of the grass industry with huge capital. Yes, in his eyes, Guo Yang is just a young and inexperienced person! He thought the pit for pasture was not deep enough, so he dug a hole in the ground and crawled into the mud of the salt marsh. During this process, they continued to poach people from the Brilliant Group. After a group of Huihuang employees are trained and matured, they will be poached by Muhe in batches until they have enough staff. Wu Feng is almost always paying attention to Muhe's situation. He knows almost everything from land reclamation and preparation, alfalfa sowing, green manure returning to the fields, forage factories to product sales. It is also because of his understanding that he is full of respect for Muhe. The existence of alfalfa has stirred up the stagnant grass industry, allowing companies like Huihuang to get a piece of the pie. "Old Wu, does Huihuang want to expand the scale of alfalfa cultivation? The headquarters can inject capital." Listening to the boss's proactive inquiry, Wu Feng couldn't help but sigh that Muhe was really soaring, but the more it was at this time, the more he had to stay calm. "There is no need to expand the planting area, but we can inject capital. Huihuang needs to find Muhe to purchase a batch of equipment."
“I read in the media that the profits from alfalfa exports are extremely high!” "Only Alfalfa can generate the same profit from exporting alfalfa, and its seeds, processing, forage machinery, export quarantine and other technologies are all unique in China. Alfalfa is the leader, and Huihuang will strive to be the second. Other forage grasses and grass species also have room for development. " "Okay, just report the plan for how much funding you need." The boss was also straightforward, mainly because Huihuang had been gradually improving under Wu Feng's leadership over the past two or three years. "Okay." In addition to Alfalfa No. 1 seeds, what Wu Feng envied most was Alfalfa's forage compression technology. Its pressurized density is the killer weapon for developing the grass industry. With this equipment, the cost of transporting straw bales will drop sharply, and profits will naturally increase. What Huihuang wants to do is not to compete with alfalfa, but to work together with it to build a professional alfalfa forage industry cluster. Bring the entire industry back on track! Beijing, Grassland Research Institute. Su Guozhou completed an article with great enthusiasm. Driven by the alfalfa agriculture and animal husbandry financing event, the number of various companies, local governments, and even growers paying attention to the development of the grass industry has increased rapidly in recent years. As a well-known scholar in the field of grassland, Su Guozhou was also invited by official media. He had mixed feelings about Alfalfa No. 1. Its excellent properties, especially its ability to improve soil, had already conquered him. But I didn’t expect that its quality would be recognized by foreign businessmen, especially the most picky island country. As for the exaggerated price, he was surprised, amazed, and even jealous of Weng Lixin's good luck. But he wants to use this hot topic to make more people and companies realize the importance of forage to animal husbandry and the dairy industry. His article also mainly revolves around the importance of the alfalfa industry to the development of the dairy industry. He used incidents such as the Fuyang inferior milk incident as negative examples. "Since the 90s, my country's dairy industry has achieved extraordinary leapfrog development, with the number of dairy cows reaching more than 1500 million and the output exceeding 3000 million tons..." "… the feeding and management are extensive, the raw milk quality is low, and the safety is poor. What is more serious is that my country's dairy cattle breeding has long used the traditional backward straw + silage + concentrate feeding model. Instead of fully relying on high-quality pasture, dairy cows often suffer from various metabolic diseases, which not only affects the increase in milk production, but also affects the quality and safety of milk..." "Alfalfa is the king of forage grasses and a key link in the overall improvement of the dairy industry." "Both the physiological characteristics of dairy cows and the experience of developed dairy countries indicate that high-quality dairy cows must be equipped with high-quality pasture..." "The conventional feed for dairy cows in my country is still a simple mixture of low-quality straw roughage and the three major ingredients (corn, bran, and biscuits), with a single protein content and a lack of various trace elements..." "In the long run, incidents like big-headed baby dolls will continue to occur despite repeated bans..." “The alfalfa industry should be developed like the grain industry.” After reading it, Yuan Jianfan, the editor-in-chief of China Animal Husbandry News, was silent for a long time. This means standing against the national dairy industry! "Professor Su, do you really want to send it like this?" Su Guozhou understood what he meant, but did he really think that group of profit-seeking people would change because of an article? He smiled and said, "Send."
