Chapter 864 Mynah babies are born (23)

You know, although my uncle's family is in a remote mountain village in the next county,
But there are indeed a lot of fields there, and their family alone has 30 to [-] mu. If they all plant chestnuts and pumpkins, they can earn at least [-] to [-] yuan a year.

Even at the beginning, the cooperative only provided seeds and fruit seedlings for ten acres of land, but that was very good and exceeded their expectations.

Because the average cooperative member can have an annual income of more than [-] yuan, which is very good, of course, Moon Lake Village is an exception.

So my uncle felt that his nephew could give his family a share of ten acres of land, and he was overjoyed, very pleasantly surprised.

Because according to Xiaofeng, the chestnuts planted in the first year can bear five or six hundred catties of fruit in the second year. The cooperative buys them at a high price of eight yuan per catty, which is an income of four to five thousand yuan, and ten mu of land is four to fifty thousand. .

In addition to the ten mu of pumpkins interplanted, one mu of pumpkins can earn tens of thousands of dollars, and ten mu of pumpkins can earn tens of thousands of dollars.

In this way, the addition of chestnuts and pumpkins can generate an income of [-] to [-] in the second year.

In the third year, a large number of chestnuts will start to bear fruit, and the yield per mu will reach more than 1000 catties. At that time, the total income will reach about 20 yuan.

In the fourth year, the chestnut will reach full fruiting period, the yield per mu can reach about 20 jin, and the net income of more than [-] yuan can be generated from [-] mu of land. .

"My God! You can earn 30 yuan by farming?" Hearing Zhang Feng's introduction, my uncle couldn't help but exclaimed loudly.

Even my cousin opened his mouth wide in horror, was stunned for a while, and then took a deep breath. He never thought that farming could earn such a high income!
"Of course, the prices of agricultural products are pretty good now. As long as you have the technology and the management can keep up, your income will definitely be good!" Zhang Feng said with a smile.

In fact, it's not just the Moon Lake Cooperative. Many farms, or counties with large agricultural plants, now earn very good income.

For example, in Shandong Province, farmers in many places have high incomes, especially those who grow large, and they can earn 50 million yuan a year casually.

People who often read Zhifu Jing or Daily Agricultural Economics know that there are many farmers with an annual income of hundreds of thousands. However, although all these are not universal, at least it also shows that agriculture has great potential and the potential of agriculture. , is worth digging deeply.

The three of them chatted until late at night

When Wang Guilan walked in, everyone realized that it was already so late.

"Xiaofeng, how are you talking?"

"It's all settled. After the National Day, I will arrange to visit my uncle's house. At that time, the entire village may be included in the scope of the cooperative's inspection!" Zhang Feng said with a smile.

"Hehe, that's good, your sister cooked supper, everyone come out and taste it!" Wang Guilan was also very happy when she heard the good news, she called the three of them and walked out.

The third day of National Day

With the good news, my uncle and cousin left Moon Lake and rushed home.

…………

"Brother! Brother!..." Seeing off uncle and the others, just as Zhang Feng returned home, Xiaoyue and Xiaolin ran in with happy faces.

"What's the matter? What's so happy?" Zhang Feng asked with a smile,

Because of the big sister's big wedding, Zhang Lin, the younger sister who just entered her sophomore year, also rushed back from the mountain city.

"Xiao Ba and Xiao Jiu's baby is born!" The little girl reported to Zhang Feng in surprise.

"What?? Xiaoba's baby was born?" Zhang Feng was also taken aback. Although he knew it was only a few days away, when it really arrived, he was still caught off guard.

After the starlings are in estrus and mating, the females start to build their nests.

此时，应提供稻草等营巢材料。雌鸟每窝产卵4～6枚，以每天或间隔2～3天产1枚不等。

After the eggs are laid, the female bird begins to incubate the eggs.During the incubation period, the female bird does not leave the nest box except eating and defecating; the male bird also protects the nest.The entire incubation period is 15 to 18 days; after more than 18 days, the female bird will refuse to incubate, behave restlessly, fly in and out, and keep singing.

According to Xiao Ba, Zhang Feng calculated the time, and Xiao Ba's wife Xiao Jiu had [-] days to hatch the baby.

"Hee hee, of course, when my second sister and I went there just now, I heard the chirping of birds! It must be the birth of Zhang Feng's Xiaoba's babies!" Xiaoyue said to Zhang Feng with a smile.

"Okay! I'll go and have a look!" Zhang Feng suddenly got up, and hurriedly strode like a grove by the lake.

When Zhang Feng came to the Xiaobajia's bird's nest, the sound of chirping birds came from the tree. Although the sound was very small and tender, it still did not escape Zhang Feng's ears.

"Little Ba, Xiao Ba??" Zhang Feng shouted excitedly towards the tree.

"Hey! Master, why are you here?" Xiao Ba jumped to the side of the bird's nest, looked down, and asked after seeing Zhang Feng.

"Xiao Ba, is your baby born?" Zhang Feng asked quickly when he saw Xiao Ba.

As soon as he talked about his baby, Xiaoba chattered non-stop, just like the father who just had a baby, he was so excited that he wanted to announce to everyone that he was a father, so that everyone would be happy for him and for everyone. Bless yourself.

chirp!chirp! !

Suddenly there was a rush of calls from the bird's nest!

Xiao Bayi screamed immediately: "Oh, master, my babies are hungry again, I'm going to get them something to eat!"

Seeing that Xiao Ba was about to leave, looking for food for his wife and children, Zhang Feng quickly stopped it!

"Hey! Xiaoba, wait..."

"What's wrong? Master?" Xiao Ba turned around and asked Zhang Feng curiously.

"Where are you going to find food? Don't you have them at home? Come and go home with me!" Zhang Feng said hastily.

As soon as Xiao Ba heard what Zhang Feng said, he immediately landed on Zhang Feng's shoulder happily, and then followed Zhang Feng back home.

In the first half month of starling brooding, the female bird feeds mainly with pecked bread, and the male bird takes on the main task of feeding the chicks after half a month.The staple food of the chicks is mealworms and other insects accompanied by calcium and other corresponding mineral feeds; the parent birds also feed their own feed to the chicks.The chicks can leave the nest after about 26 days of growth, and the chicks can start to live independently away from their parents in about one month.A pair of parent birds can produce two broods of young each year.Generally, young chicks 1 days after hatching are most suitable for artificial domestication.

Zhang Feng has consulted some information and knows that mynah can eat bread, so he has already prepared it. Even the worms in half a month later, Zhang Feng already has an idea. The earthworms in the backyard are very good food. I believe they will also eat bread. will like it very much.

"Xiao Ba, you can go home and take it after eating, you know? Don't let the baby get hungry!" Xiaoyue volunteered to give the bread to Xiao Ba, and then told Xiao Ba seriously.

Xiaoba nodded, took a piece of bread in his mouth, and flew to the nest immediately, afraid that if he was slower, his baby and daughter-in-law would be hungry. It seemed that Xiaoba was really a responsible male bird.
