Chapter 294 The Surprising Changes of the Desert Farm

Gurban Desert

This is a desert in the middle of the Junggar Basin in the northern part of the Frontier Province.

With an area of ​​5.68 square kilometers, it is the largest fixed and semi-fixed desert in my country and the second largest desert in my country.

The Gurban Desert is a temperate arid desert with an annual rainfall of about 100 mm.

Development started here in the 60s and [-]s of the last century, and the headquarters of the famous Construction Corps is here.

Farm No. 30 of the Shanshen Group is not far from the Bingtuan station, about 50 kilometers away, and covers an area of ​​more than [-] mu. It is the largest nearby farm besides the Bingtuan farm.

A few months ago, this place was still an undeveloped desert, with very little vegetation in the sand, only a small amount of desert plants such as Haloxylon, seabuckthorn and sandawang.

But now, it is really in full swing here, and hundreds of workers plant trees and build farm shelterbelts here every day.

According to the agreement signed between Shanshen Group and the local government, the company will build a protective forest covering an area of ​​over [-] mu here to prevent the invasion of wind and sand.

From the beginning of May to the present, only one month has passed, but earth-shaking changes have taken place here.

The once barren desert is now covered with trees, and the entire farm is surrounded by two-meter-high poplar trees rustling in the strong wind.

There is also a small freshwater lake in the center of the farm. The water in the lake is slightly blue. If you look carefully, you can see small fish swimming among the aquatic plants.

Yes, this small lake is not a natural lake, but an artificial lake where the groundwater dug out by the company gathers.

According to the company's calculations, the lake has enough water to fully meet the farm's water needs, not only to irrigate the farm's crops, but also to provide the required water for the shelterbelt.

Seeing that the construction of the farm has achieved initial results, Jiang Xingmin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Before, he felt that it was not a wise choice to blindly invest in the desert when the company did not have the sand control technology. Unfortunately, the boss insisted on this, and he could only accept it.

However, as the construction of the desert farm started, everything went smoothly unexpectedly, and even the local workers found it incredible.

For example, the survival rate of trees planted in the company's shelterbelt has reached 90.00%, and even a random hole in the ground can create a spring.

Seeing these miracles, the local workers were not surprised. They all exclaimed that Shanshen Company is really a miracle, and their luck is really good.

Although Zhang Hai did not visit No. [-] desert farm in person, he has been paying attention to the situation there. As soon as he saw the sandstorm there, Zhang Hai immediately called to ask about the situation of the agricultural products.

"Mr. Jiang, I heard that there was a sandstorm over there last night. How is it? Is the farm okay?"

Jiang Xingmin received a call from Zhang Hai as soon as he returned from his tour of the farm.

"It's okay boss, the flood protection and forest protection of our farm have blocked most of the wind and sand, only a few poplars were blown off by the wind!"

"Okay, I didn't expect the shelter forest on our farm to take effect so quickly!"

Zhang Hai was also very happy, feeling that the growth of the shelterbelts had exceeded his expectations. You must know that the earliest of these shelterbelts had only been planted for a month, and the latest were the saplings just planted yesterday evening.

But they successfully blocked the wind and sand, which surprised Zhang Hai.

"Yes, boss, our shelter forest is indeed growing very fast. When it was first planted, it was only more than one meter long, but now the tallest one is three meters high. It has grown to a height of more than one meter in a month, and its diameter has reached five. Six centimeters!" Jiang Xingmin was excited when he said this.

Because the protective forest on the company farm is really amazing. Its survival rate is so high and its growth rate is so fast that it is almost beyond everyone's cognition.

"By the way, boss, our irrigation system is almost finished, and the grass seeds sown on the farm have also grown, and they are growing very well."

"That's good. Later, you can take a video of the farm and let everyone see the construction results of the No. [-] farm!" Zhang Hai ordered with a smile.

"Okay boss, I'll take pictures later!"

About half an hour later, the video of Farm No. [-] taken by Jiang Xingmin was posted to the company's group. When everyone saw the scene of green grass in the farm, they all thought it was a prairie with lush water and grass.

"Fuck! I thought this was the prairie in northern Xinjiang! I didn't expect it to be the No. [-] farm of the company!"

"No, isn't our company's No. [-] farm just started to be remodeled?"

"It's really awesome. In just one month, our desert farm has turned into a grassy prairie?"

But after repeated confirmation by everyone, it turned out that this place is actually the No. [-] farm of the company. You must know that a month ago, this place was still a barren desert!

What caused such earth-shaking changes here, the senior executives of the company were very curious and asked Jiang Xingmin why.

It's a pity that Jiang Xingmin himself doesn't know, and only Zhang Hai knows the real reason.

Because all this is the reason of the golden finger, it is the "jushui talisman" that makes the farm dig out the spring water, and the "five grains harvest" makes the aspen in the shelter forest grow faster and healthier.

And in order to make the plants in the farm grow faster, Zhang Hai even made an exception to enable the intermediate function, making the abilities of various runes more powerful.

This is why the former desert was full of trees in just one month.

"I think our No. [-] farm is almost ready to be developed into a scenic spot!"

"That's right, there are grasslands and lakes over there. If you raise more cattle and sheep, it will look like an ecological prairie!"

After seeing the construction results of No. [-] Agricultural Products, the employees were very happy, and felt that there is really a potential for tourism development here.

"Forget it, farming is our company's specialty. Let's farm the land honestly. As for the development of scenic spots, we will talk about it later!"

Seeing the employees gradually crooked, Zhang Hai had no choice but to come out and explain.

"It's such a pity that such a beautiful place, when you have time, you must go and see it!"

Although the boss did not accept everyone's suggestions, which made everyone feel a little regretful, but after seeing the scenery of Farm No. [-], many employees couldn't help but want to go there for a trip and experience the magnificent scenery of the desert grassland.

Originally, Zhang Hai planned to visit Farm No. [-] in person, but thinking that the epidemic situation in the frontier province would repeat, the whole province was closed for more than a month.

Therefore, Zhang Hai had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​going to investigate in person, and had to wait until next year to make plans.

Fortunately, this year's Farm No. [-] does not plan to plant crops, but only planted a batch of alfalfa to transform the sandy soil, accumulate organic matter for planting soybeans next year, and increase the fertility of the land.

Therefore, this year's No. [-] farm does not need to spend much effort, as long as the daily maintenance of the shelterbelt and grassland is done well.
