Chapter 58 A word that wakes up the dreamer Bell pepper is a subspecies of the genus Capsicum that produces sweet berries. It is an annual or perennial herb that evolved in North America from peppers native to tropical regions of Central and South Yang had previously learned from the city's seed management department that the average seed output value of Jiuquan in 2001 was approximately 1300 yuan per mu. The average income from greenhouse vegetable seed production reached yuan/mu, among which the average income from hybrid sweet pepper and hybrid tomato seed production reached 2 yuan/mu, and the highest could reach 10 yuan/mu. Of course, one can imagine how harsh the conditions are if one wants to earn more than 10 yuan. Entering the seed store with his mind, Guo Yang chose customized varieties. Then two round vessels appeared. Guo Yang tried putting some corn seeds in it. Ding…… Sequence 1: 【Type】:Corn. 【Parent】: Female parent.
【Variety】: Self-bred line ly404. 【Characteristics】: Ordinary corn, purple stem base, yellow anthers... cylindrical ear, ear length cm... strong seed germination, strong seedlings... When he saw the words "mother copy" clearly displayed on the interface, Guo Yang couldn't help but exclaimed. "Fuck, cross-breeding! Is that so traditional?" Female parent, one of the parents involved in a hybrid. It refers to the female plant of the previous generation in plant reproduction, and also refers to the plant that receives pollen when flowers of different plants undergo cross-pollination. He originally thought that the breeding method of seed stores would be to directly produce seeds based on the needs input by users. At worst, it is still cutting-edge breeding methods such as molecular breeding or genetic engineering breeding. But I didn’t expect it to be hybrid… No! It cannot be simply called hybrid breeding, although it is difficult to figure out at the moment. But Guo Yang undoubtedly felt that this method was excellent. There will be no public opinion risks such as genetically modified seeds, and no hidden dangers such as food safety. Moreover, the source of the seeds cultivated in this way is clear and the risks are smaller. As for whether others can cultivate the same variety using the same method? He can't control it. After roughly figuring out the logic, Guo Yang found another copy of the male seed and put it in. Sequence 2 of the same style appeared. And below the two, a breeding option appears. Guo Yang pressed it with his finger. “Ding… Please enter the crop production area (or natural geographical conditions), the characteristics of the male and female parents to be retained, and the number of breeding…” There are two numbers behind the text.
One of them represents the probability of breeding success: 100% The other is the consumption of natural energy: 4. Guo Yang continued to ponder for a while before he completely understood the logic of targeted training. It is indeed very similar to cross-breeding, but it also has a bit of a flavor of genetic selection. In short, it feels very strange. But what excites him is that the number of seeds to be cultivated can be selected, based on the amount of natural energy consumed, and the maximum number of seeds that can be selected is 1000 kilograms. Guo Yang sighed to the sky. Finally, he didn't have to work so hard to expand the family... In addition, users can choose to retain any one or more traits of the male or female parent, and can also choose the production area. Generally speaking, the more traits there are and the more specialized they are, the wider the production area required, the lower the probability of success, and the more natural energy consumed. Guo Yang inferred that the grade of the cultivated seeds can be judged based on the amount of natural energy consumed. White, 1-20 points; blue, 20-100; Purple, 100-500; Red, 500-1000, you need to spend 5000 points to unlock the purchase qualification; Orange, 1000 and above, you need to spend 10000 points to unlock the purchase qualification. It is not a simple and crude breeding, but Guo Yang thinks it is very reasonable. But this means that the demand for parent materials is very high. It seems that it is imperative to establish our own germplasm resource bank. In addition to collecting known varieties, some wild germplasm resources also need to be searched and collected. Having become familiar with the operating logic of the seed store, Guo Yang is no longer in a hurry to carry out targeted breeding. Natural energy is limited, so parent materials must be selected carefully! It is too troublesome and tiring to try them one by one. There will be tens or millions of germplasm resources in the future, and we can't let him try them out in seed stores one by one. So, Guo Yang found the person in charge of the seed resource library. Put them in charge of compiling a list, listing the types and various characteristics of each seed in a table. The same work will be done for the germplasm resources collected and introduced in the future. Germplasm resource banks must also move towards specialization. We can also take advantage of this period to introduce targeted species at home and abroad. …… Guo Yang received the materials sent by teacher Weng Lixin and read them carefully. The Qaidam Basin is the granary of Qinghai Province. The agricultural area at the bottom of the basin is 2 to 650 meters above sea level. ～℃， 1月份均温-10～℃， 7月份均温15～17℃。 From 1954 to 1960, the Qaidam Basin was reclaimed on a large scale, with the reclaimed area reaching 126 million mu.
Later, due to drought, salinization, sandstorms and soil degradation, the land was abandoned and uncultivated year by year. By 2002, there were only about 62 mu of arable land left, of which about 81% were medium- and low-yield fields and only 19% were high-yield fields. The main mode of operation is state-owned farms, supplemented by small-scale scattered operations by farmers. Among them, state-owned farms and ranches account for acres, and rural farmers account for acres. However, the actual planting area of state-owned farms was only 27 mu last year. It is only 1960% of the highest level of reclaimed area in 21, which means that the abandoned area accounts for almost 4/5. The main agricultural products are ordinary soft spring wheat and ordinary spring rapeseed, accounting for 68% and of the sown area respectively. However, due to the low protein and gluten content of spring wheat, flour mills are reluctant to process it, residents are reluctant to eat it, and livestock are prone to diarrhea after eating it. This resulted in a large backlog of wheat and low economic benefits. At the same time, the quality and benefits of spring rapeseed are not good. Therefore, Qinghai Province came up with the idea of adjusting the planting structure in the Qaidam Basin. With the advancement of the western development, there is a demand for fencing off severely degraded grasslands, light grazing on seriously degraded grasslands, and the number of livestock determined by the amount of grass in the grasslands contracted by herders. Grassland control has been tightened, but Qinghai Province has an annual stock of more than 500 million cattle and more than 1500 million sheep, which are the number of livestock necessary for the lives of ethnic minority people. This has resulted in an increase in the feed required for fattening cattle and sheep and for raising beef and dairy cattle year by year. However, the only plant protein in Qinghai Province's feed resources is rapeseed cake, and all soybean meal needs to be imported from outside the province. Therefore, planting alfalfa and using cheap, low-cost alfalfa meal instead of soybean meal as protein feed became the choice of the Qinghai Provincial Government. But it’s just getting started. According to the expert team's idea, in the agricultural planting in the Qaidam Basin, the cultivated land owned by several agricultural reclamation enterprises accounts for 50% of the total cultivated land area in the basin, and is concentrated in large areas. Therefore, the development focus can be on agricultural reclamation enterprises to drive the development of surrounding rural areas. In addition, Qinghai Province has suitable climatic conditions for growing alfalfa; the terrain is flat and concentrated in large areas, which is conducive to mechanized operations and centralized purchase, processing, storage and transportation. At the same time, the planting area is large. In addition to the Qaidam Basin, Tanggemu Farm, Yuanxinzhe Farm, Wayuxiangka Farm and other farms from the Gonghe Basin to the Chaka Basin can grow alfalfa. With the reconstruction of the railway from the provincial capital to Golmud, transportation from the Qaidam Basin to the inland will become more convenient. In addition to meeting the needs within the province, the alfalfa meal produced can also be sold outside the province and neighboring countries. The Qinghai Provincial Government does want to adjust the structure of its planting industry, but planting alfalfa is only the suggestion and idea of experts. The main reason why mentor Weng Lixin was invited to go was to study the causes of grassland degradation and how to restore it. According to what his teacher told him, grassland degradation is caused by overgrazing, seasonal grass-livestock conflicts, backward animal husbandry methods, and excessive digging and picking of herbs. Guo Yang asked again, how were rat and insect pests caused? The reason turned out to be related to the excessive digging and picking of herbs. The pastoral grasslands in Qinghai Province are vast, rich in rare vegetation, and contain many precious Chinese herbal medicines. For example, Qinghai Rhododendron, Cordyceps sinensis, Fritillaria, etc.
In order to increase their economic income, herders dug up herbs on a large scale, destroying the grassland root system and causing serious grassland desertification. At the same time, the ecological balance and food chain in pastoral areas are out of balance, causing wolves, eagles, birds and other animals to lose their habitats, and causing harmful animals such as rats and insects to multiply in large numbers. They dig holes underground and gnaw on grass roots, destroying the nutritional structure of the soil, resulting in continuous "black soil beaches" and aggravating grassland degradation. Finally, Weng Lixin did not forget to give suggestions to Guo Yang. "You have connections with the higher-ups, and I also have some connections in the industry." "Your Alfalfa Farming and Animal Husbandry Company can definitely expand grassland ecological restoration projects. Taking advantage of the western development drive, it is easy to take on some government-sponsored projects such as returning farmland to grassland and grassland restoration in the five northwestern provinces." "This is the right way. If you want to make money in agriculture, you still have to follow the policy." Guo Yang nodded thoughtfully. Doing projects means earning money from the government, while running a ranch means spending your own money. But it seems that both are ecological restoration and can accumulate natural energy. One is making money, the other is spending money. For a moment, it seemed as if he had discovered something extraordinary. (End of this chapter)
