Alpine Orchard

Chapter 129 Slower Than Expected 【Recommendation】

The second uncle and his family have a total of 86 mu of mango orchards, including the second uncle and the second aunt, and Ye Zhi and his wife.

Before Ye Mo planted durian trees, Ye Zhi and his wife also came to help for a few days.

86 acres of mangoes. In their spare time, the second uncle combed the orchard... only the big ones were kept, and the yield was lower, but the unit price was higher.

2.9 yuan per catty of mango.

86 acres of mangoes, a total of 2.56 catties, more than 7 yuan.

Chen Chen and his family have a lot of mangoes, 130 acres, no comb fruit, different sizes, 2.4 yuan per catty.

When Chen Chen and the others were picking mangoes, many people also came, including Chen Chen's uncles, uncles, etc. They finished picking the mangoes in half a day.

The mango picking cycle is relatively long, and it is not necessary to pick all the mangoes at once.

Most of the production team were still busy picking mangoes, while Ye Mo and the others were already digging micro-diggers to fertilize the orchard.

Three excavators work at the same time, very fast.

Micro diggers are small and very flexible in the orchard.

The small excavator can enter the mango orchard. The mango orchard here is not dense and the aisle is spacious.But when these mango trees grow bigger, it will be difficult for small excavators to come in.As for the pomegranate garden, if a small excavator goes in, it will scrape branches...

Different orchards have different requirements for digging fertilization pits.

The single room is a single row of pits, one tree and one pit, the simplest.

Dig a pit a little farther from the projection of the tree crown, with a depth of [-] cm.For micro-digging, five or six shovels are needed.Small digging, three shovels.Digging at an angle, shallow on both sides and deep in the middle... During the excavation process, a lot of soil will be brought out of the sides of the fertilizer pit.

The current mango trees are not big, so the application of organic fertilizer is a little farther away from the tree crown projection.If the branches are thick, dig a hole under the shadow of the canopy.

This time it is heavy fertilizer, like Ye Mo's parents' orchard, each fruit tree is given 60 catties of organic fertilizer.These organic fertilizers are mixed with some other fertilizers... Just keep away from the trunk.

Absolutely most families choose single-row fertilization, that is, dig a hole for one tree...

Two, three and four rows are rarely chosen.

If it is ordinary fertilization, two or three rows are good.For ordinary fertilization, a depth of [-] to [-] centimeters is enough.

When heavy fertilizer is applied, it is necessary to dig deeper. The more holes you dig...the more the fine roots of fruit trees will be damaged.

Now this is called fruit fat.

I have invited technicians before, and the organic matter content of the soil here is low, and it is all loess...

It is almost impossible to improve the soil in one step.

Give heavy fertilizer once after fruiting, wait until the end of the new year, and give fertilizer again before flowering.

Ye Mo drove the small excavator, hurrying along.

I haven’t driven an excavator for a long time. When I go into the orchard, I have a few shovels on the left and a few shovels on the right... Then I reverse the car, and I have a few shovels on the left and a few shovels on the right...

"It's time to start working." The third uncle rode over on the battery car and looked at the hole Ye Mo dug.

"Third Uncle." Ye Mo called out.

The third uncle nodded and said with a smile: "I also want to dig a hole over there. After you are done with your work, dig a hole for me over there too."

"Yes." Ye Mo said with a smile.

One tree and one pit.

There are only 33 mango trees per acre.

The micro-digging is very flexible in the orchard, the throttle is dry to the maximum, and the speed is very fast.

Come out after six in the morning and work until noon...

Ye Mo calculated, he dug a total of 507 holes with micro-digging.

In the morning, Ye Ran started digging a little and only dug 427 holes.

Dad Ye dug 456 holes.

This progress is much slower than expected.

Now there are many people waiting for their excavators, and the work they have received has exceeded [-] acres of orchards.

There may be work to dig pits later.

Digging deep fertilizer pits for orchards, normally... the depth is half a meter and the width is about 60cm. An excavator can only dig six to seven hundred pits a day.The fee is about three thousand.If the quantity is large, it will not be less than two thousand.

Some of the people in the village have gone to find external machines outside, and the cheapest offer is more than 600 yuan, promising more than 2000 pits per day.And at least more than five days of work, it is more than [-].If the number of days is less, it will be three thousand.

Today is digging Ye Mo's own orchard, Lin Xiaomian has a rest in the morning.Everyone is very tired these days, and she is also very tired, so she helps cook at home...

"This progress is a bit slow." Ye Mo said.

"It's not bad." Ye Ran said.

In one morning, only 42 acres were dried.

Today they went down to the orchard when the sky was dim, counting the afternoon... If everyone had the speed of Ye Mo, they would be able to dry up to 100 mu in a day.

I thought it was easy to dig a hole before, so I would say less than two or three hundred acres in a day.The current progress... It will take at least one and a half months to finish all the orders in hand.Some orchards need backfill and some don't...

"I feel that our charges are too low. The lowest quotation for other excavators is 600 yuan for 2100 pits." Ye Ran said.

Their quotation, the unified quotation for micro-digging and small-digging, is 100 yuan per hour.

The offer is actually pretty good.The most important thing is to receive a lot of work...

After dinner, Uncle Chen came over again to have a look inside the orchard.

The fertilization pit dug out by the excavator is still beautiful.

But in the mu orchard, the three excavators have been working all morning, and they haven't finished it yet.

Did he know that Ye Mo and his family went to the orchard after six o'clock this morning, and they have been doing this until now.

"Third Uncle." Ye Mo shouted when he saw Chen Chen's father.

"Hey." The third uncle replied: "You can finish the work this afternoon, right? When the work is finished, go to my orchard first."

"So anxious." Ye Mo said.

"The work ahead is still very heavy..."

"After we're done here, we'll go there." Ye Mo took out a cigarette and lit one for Uncle Third.

Uncle San smiled.

Orchards can be fertilized first and then pruned.You can also prune first, then fertilize...

Pruning an orchard of more than 100 mu is not an easy job if you do it all by yourself.He wants to fertilize first and then prune.

"Dig the hole well, and after we fertilize, help us backfill it." The third uncle said again.Their family has more than 130 acres of mangoes, digging holes and backfilling. If three excavators work together... two and a half to three days should be able to get it done.

Asking Ye Mo and the others to work in the past is much cheaper than hiring an excavator outside.

If you hire an outside excavator and bring backfill, it will cost at least 2 yuan.

Ye Mo and the others, with more than 1, should be able to do well.

"it is good."

The job of backfilling is simple and fast.But it is very slow to ask people to backfill.

I didn't take much rest at noon, so I continued to work.

Lin Xiaomian took over Ye Ran's shift and went over to do some small digging, letting Ye Ran rest for an afternoon.

Helping everyone pick fruit during this time, everyone is very tired...

The air conditioner can be used on the small excavator, and the working environment is relatively good and relaxed.

After finishing the orchard at home, he directly entered the orchard of the third uncle's house.

Part of Ye Mo's orchard is next to Third Uncle's orchard, so just drive there...

One shovel, two shovels, three shovels, four shovels... One hole is dug.The arm of the excavator turns to another fruit tree, and the digging continues...then reverse, repeat, repeat, repeat...

The orchard here has a relatively large space left.With a spacing of 5 meters and a row spacing of 4 meters, dig a hole outside the crown of the tree, without moving the position of the excavator, you can dig the fertilizer pits for two trees.

　Available tomorrow...
