Homo sapiens.

Visited from South Cairo for a day.

The next day, Dr. Lena and others followed the investigation groups from various regions to West Cairo.

The North African Agricultural Expo was held in West Cairo.

Unlike Central Cairo, which is solemn and solemn, and South Cairo, which is prosperous in business, West Cairo seems to be a rural village, surrounded by forests and grasslands.

The seawater channel led from the seawater canal provides a lot of water resources for the plants here.

In order to avoid severe salinization of the land after seawater irrigation, the seawater agricultural land here will be flooded with flood water every once in a while to wash the surface back and forth and take away the excessive salinity in the soil.

If sea water is not used to wash back and forth, once the salinity of the land exceeds the standard, even saline-alkali-tolerant crops cannot grow.

Access to the venue of the Agricultural Expo.

Everyone saw a holographic simulation promotional image of a farm, which introduced how to clean the saline-alkali land and control the salinity of the soil.

"Huh? Is this a date palm?" Heath looked at the low date palm forest not far away.

When he got closer, he realized that it was not as simple as a date palm. More than a dozen members of the inspection team from the Kingdom of Sandland were only discussing in low voices.

The full name of this kind of date palm in front of us is: salt-alkali-resistant sugar-oil fiber composite palm.

The name is very long and the function is relatively complicated.

A more specific explanation is that it is a palm tree of the palm family that can be irrigated with seawater. The pulp contains extremely high sugar content, and the core oil content is also extremely high. The fibers of the leaves can be used for textiles.

"Are you interested in this kind of genetically recombined palm tree? This is the introduction of the species." The narrator said while distributing a large stack of introductions to the guests present.

Lena and Heath also took a profile.

After flipping for a few minutes, Heath raised his glasses: "Terrible technology."

"It's really scary." Dr. Lena agreed.

这种基因重组棕榈树，从培育到成熟只需要17～18个月，最高为3.2米，单树每年可以生产200公斤左右的果实，其中果肉120公斤（含糖24公斤）、果核80公斤（含油40公斤）。

In addition, 150-200 kg of palm fiber and about 200 kg of waste residue can be obtained by collecting leaves (which can be used as organic fertilizer and biomass fuel).

On average, 4 genetically recombined palm trees of this type can be planted per mu.

The narrator picked a large handful of bright red fruits from the palm's cumulus fruit. These palm fruits are slightly larger than quail eggs.

"Everyone can try it. At present, our company has planted 50 mu of super palms in the sub-plateau area of ​​the Red Sea Province."

Heath did not consider that this was a genetically modified crop, and took a bite directly. The pulp was very sweet and had a slightly rustling taste.

The eyes of those people from the kingdom of sand were shining, wishing to uproot the palm trees in front of them immediately.

And what the narrator said next made the inspection team of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia stare wide-eyed.

“We have various custom varieties of palm oil that can be used to produce vegetable oils like olive oil, soybean oil, peanut oil, and even directly into biodiesel.”

"Biodiesel?" The face of the head of the inspection team in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia changed, and he felt like asking: "Is the oil production the same?"

The narrator nodded.

Now the people of the Sand Kingdom can't sit still.

After all, the economy of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is very dependent on oil and natural gas. If there is no income from oil and natural gas, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia will definitely die.

And super palms can produce 160 kilograms of biodiesel per acre, Homo sapiens can plant hundreds of millions of acres of super palms in the Sahara Desert, and then just lay down and harvest them.

Don't think Homo sapiens won't do this.

Homo sapiens now purchases a large amount of oil and gas from Persia, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and the Kingdom of Al Thani, not because Homo sapiens has no oil and gas resources, but to maintain trade balance.

In fact, the oil fields held by Homo sapiens all over the world add up to a lot.

What's more, Homo sapiens is now promoting nuclear power and new energy in an all-round way. The largest use of oil and gas is actually in the chemical industry, followed by fuel.

This is also the reason why all the forces in West Asia can't get tough in front of Homo sapiens.

Now people in the kingdom of sand feel even more uncomfortable.

In fact, this is also a warning to all parties in West Asia, let them think clearly who is the current boss.

It seems to be reminding these forces: continue flirting with the Europa Consortium and America, and I will make you unable to eat sand every minute.

The silent members of the Sand Kingdom inspection team nodded and bowed to the narrator like chickens pecking at rice.

Lena, Heath and the others, who didn't quite understand this kind of secret confrontation, ignored the intrigue between the narrator and the Kingdom of Sand.

Heath looked through some situations in Super Palm and guessed some of the next things:
"It seems that next, Homo sapiens will further develop the sub-plateau area in the interior of North Africa."

"Oh? Why not a plain?" Dr. Lena asked curiously.

Bryan interjected: "The plains must be a food growing area like rice and wheat."

Dr. Lena, who came back to his senses, nodded: "That's true."

After all, staple food is the core industry of Homo Sapiens, and other crops are definitely not as important as food. Therefore, the plains that are easy to irrigate must give priority to planting food crops.

The intention of Haitian Agriculture to develop Super Palm is to expand the agricultural planting area and enter the sub-plateau in the Sahara Desert.

The terrain of the Sahara Desert is flat, and there are generally no tall mountains and plateaus. Those 200-500-meter plateaus are good places to plant super palms.

This sub-plateau is everywhere in the Sahara Desert.

For example, the Sinai Peninsula and the Southwest of the Suez region, the northwest of Meroe, and the south and west of Numidia.

These areas are typical sub-plateaus.

It is obviously very difficult to build these sub-plateaus into standard paddy fields.

However, the difficulty of transforming into a super palm plantation will be greatly reduced, and at worst, a few more pumping pipelines will be built.

Just when Dr. Lena and others were thinking wildly.

People from the Al Thani Kingdom and Persia also came to this exhibition area.

They also had ideas for Super Palm.

However, the Al Thani Kingdom and the Persians, like the Saudi Kingdom, are very afraid of the entry of Homo sapiens.

After all, there are too many lessons learned from the past, and it is difficult not to be wary.

In this agricultural expo, in addition to the new variety of super palm, there are also genetically recombined varieties of various other crops.

If Homo sapiens hadn't been too fond of doing things, forces such as the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia would have cooperated with Homo sapiens long ago.

at the same time.

As the relevant content of the climate forum and agricultural expo was posted on the Internet, all parties also heard the news.

On the one hand, they asked the meteorological research team to study the overall impact of Homo sapiens' Sahara desert greening project on the earth's climate as soon as possible.

On the other hand, they have also begun to play rogues, no longer talking about green powers, but restarting a large number of previously sealed thermal power stations.

Apparently, these guys are planning to increase the amount of greenhouse gas emissions and use it to offset Homo sapiens' carbon sequestration project.

In the face of enormous pressure to survive, the bottom line of human beings is very flexible.
