Rebirth 90: I rely on farming to cultivate a master scholar

Chapter 260 Drip Irrigation Technology

Inside the studio, the recording team was already adjusting the camera position. The studio owner was communicating with Liu Qingsong about the details of the recording. Maybe the studio owner needed to memorize some lines. He was so nervous that his forehead was sweating.

Instead of going to join in the fun, Cao Chunyuan found Pei Shaorong who was researching strawberries in the greenhouse. After seeing Pei Shaorong and Li Ying, she trotted over.

"Academician Pei, let me pick some strawberries for you to taste!"

Li Ying smiled slightly at Cao Chunyuan, and said, "Mr. Cao, I have already paid the money just now, and I will pick some when I leave later."

Cao Chunyuan stared wide-eyed, "You still have to spend money to eat strawberries, isn't that a slap in the face to me?"

Li Ying waved her hand and said, "The owner of the greenhouse is not willing to charge. The teacher asked me to pay. It is not easy for others to grow some strawberries. How can we eat other people's food for free!"

Cao Chunyuan was speechless for a while. As a landlord, the guests came to her house as guests and asked the guests to spend money to buy strawberries, which made people laugh when it was spread.

But who told the other party to be Pei Shaorong? With Pei Shaorong's stubborn temper, who can control her!

Cao Chunyuan could only shake her head helplessly, and silently squatted beside Pei Shaorong.

"Academician Pei, I see that you have been squatting for a long time, what are you looking at?"

"I'm wondering if drip irrigation technology can be used in strawberry greenhouses."

In Cao Chunyuan's previous life, sprinkler irrigation and drip irrigation technologies were already very mature and popular in China, and even textbooks have related content.

But now it is 1994, the technology is not yet developed, and this advanced drip irrigation technology has not yet been implemented in China.The greenhouses in Liujia Village are naturally not equipped with sprinkler irrigation and drip irrigation equipment.

When Pei Shaorong came here for the second time, he was thinking about the greenhouse improvement plan. Cao Chunyuan admired it very much. This serious attitude towards agricultural issues alone is worth studying for a lifetime.

"Academician Pei, don't worry, sprinkler irrigation and drip irrigation technologies will be popularized in our country sooner or later. Let alone greenhouses, even ordinary farmland can use this irrigation technology."

Hearing this, Pei Shaorong looked at Cao Chunyuan in surprise, "You still understand this?"

Cao Chunyuan's face turned black in an instant. I am indeed a layman in agriculture, but even if I am a layman, I am not a fool. How can I not know this kind of technology that can be guessed just by hearing the name?

"Hehe, understand a little bit."

"Since you understand, why don't you let everyone use this advanced equipment?"

Cao Chunyuan blinked and said, "I was in a hurry to start work, so I didn't think about this. Another point is that although I understand this technology, the workers in the construction team don't.

Even if I tell them how to do it, they may not be able to assemble drip irrigation equipment.In case something goes wrong with the equipment, not to mention the time-consuming and labor-intensive effort, the first phase of the greenhouse may be for nothing. "

"Ah~"

Pei Shaorong sighed, her face was heavy and her brows were full of sorrow.

"We introduced drip irrigation technology in 74, and it has been 20 years, but this advanced planting technology has not been popularized.

Each of the growers abroad has several hectares of land, and they all use drip irrigation technology, which can save a lot of labor.Why can't this kind of excellent technology be promoted in China? "

As a witness of history, Cao Chunyuan has the right to speak. The country has a large population base and less land per capita.On the contrary, in foreign countries, they have a vast land and few people. In this case, it is natural to find a way to reduce the labor of the growers.

But it is different in China. There is not much land in the first place, and no one is willing to spend more money to install 'useless' farming equipment.

Take Dazhangzi Township as an example, each villager has only more than one mu of arable land, and a family of three only has 3 to 4 mu of land.There is enough manpower at this point, and there is no need to waste money on installing sprinkler irrigation and drip irrigation equipment.

In addition, everyone has different acceptance of technological products, and foreign countries are willing to use advanced equipment to reduce labor costs.

However, it is an old tradition in China to bear hardships and stand hard work. Farmers would rather work harder than rely on external forces to cultivate.

Cao Chunyuan knew these things very well in her heart, but she didn't want to say it, she was afraid that Pei Shaorong would feel even worse after she said it.

"Academician Pei, after the new year, I will find professionals to install drip irrigation equipment for the greenhouses in the village. And, I will publicize it to encourage growers to use advanced planting technology.

I believe that in the near future, all growers in our country will also implement this technology. "

"Ugh!"

Pei Shaorong shook her head. With her experience, she couldn't tell that Cao Chunyuan was comforting her.

As an agricultural researcher of the older generation, she has dedicated her whole life to agricultural research, but there are some things that she cannot accomplish with hard work.

Pei Shaorong shook his head desolately, and said, "I am old, and the future of our motherland depends on you young people. Xiao Cao, you are a good boy, and you must not let everyone down on you."

At this moment, Cao Chunyuan suddenly felt that a mission fell on her shoulders, she nodded vigorously, and said very sincerely: "Academician Pei, don't worry, I will do my best to make people around me live better. At the same time, we will also find ways to help more people so that they can all live a better life.”

Pei Shaorong smiled slightly, and gently stroked Cao Chunyuan's hair.

"Good boy!"

At 15:40 in the afternoon, the recording at the greenhouse in Liujia Village ended. Cao Chunyuan wanted to take Pei Shaorong and the recording team to dinner, but Pei Shaorong had to go back to the Agricultural Research Center.

Cao Chunyuan couldn't resist Pei Shaorong, so she could only follow Pei Shaorong's wishes and go back to the Agricultural Research Center with her.

After getting off the car, Pei Shaorong waved to Cao Chunyuan, "You've been busy with us all day, so go ahead and do whatever you want, and leave us alone."

Cao Chunyuan's biggest task now is to arrange the people in the scientific research team, and other things will be arranged later, and she will definitely not leave Pei Shaorong alone.

"Academician Pei, I'm in the office of Cen Shuhong's experimental group, call me anytime you need anything."

"Okay, then I'll go to the experimental field first. I didn't observe carefully enough just now. I need to reorganize a detailed data."

"Okay, you are busy first."

"Hmm~"

Pei Shaorong nodded, and with Li Ying's support, he walked towards the test field again.Cao Chunyuan shook her head, and hurried to Cen Shuhong's office.

At this time, Cen Shuhong was busy entertaining several leaders of the scientific research team, and naturally it was impossible to be in the office. Cao Chunyuan took out her mobile phone to call her and summoned her to the office.

Cen Shuhong trotted all the way back to the office, panting and asked, "Mr. Cao, what are your plans?"

"Academician Pei and the others rushed over from Yanjing early in the morning, and it was getting dark soon, and even I felt a little hungry, let alone the elderly people like them.

Immediately ask the cafeteria to prepare meals, and after the meals are ready, send them to the scientific research team.Oh, by the way, the meals for the film crew are also prepared together. "

Cen Shuhong nodded again and again, indicating that arrangements will be made immediately.

"When I was away in the afternoon, did the professors from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences say anything?"

Cen Shuhong shook her head and said, "They have been researching rice and didn't mention anything else."
