Chapter 67 Water Spinach Harvester 【Please recommend, recommend】

During this period of time, Chen Mo was thinking about not raising fish and instead raising eels.

The navel orange trees in the orchard are getting bigger and bigger, the aisle space is getting smaller, and there will be less and less fish grass in the future.

There are many things to do in fish farming.

When raising eels, you can feed them some feed in the future.

What's more, if you use Lingquan to raise rice field eels, rice field eels are not easy to die.

After sending Cheng Tang to Zhuyuan Mansion, Chen Mo drove to Lao Wafang and sold the eels.

Back in the countryside, Chen Mo's parents were also there, helping to bundle water spinach in the warehouse.

It was two o'clock, and there was less than half of the water spinach left in the greenhouse. It was quickly harvested and loaded onto a tricycle and sent to the warehouse.

This warehouse is big enough to bundle water spinach in the warehouse.This is the first batch of water spinach, still very tender, without old leaves, just bundled up in large bundles.

The third uncle and the third aunt are also helping in the warehouse when they have nothing to do.

Father Chen looked at Chen Mo: "Should we also collect water spinach tomorrow?"

"We won't collect them for the next few days. We will sell them when they grow up." Chen Mo said.

The water spinach in the back greenhouse is still small.This batch was collected in advance, which is not worthwhile.

Once you know how much labor it takes to harvest water spinach in a greenhouse, you don’t have to rush to harvest water spinach.

The water spinach was delivered one by one. After the female workers cut the water spinach, they also came to the warehouse to bundle the water spinach. They were all finished after six o'clock in the afternoon.

Liu Run also came here early, and he called a big car to come over.

After weighing the water spinach, soak it in well water, fish it out, and load it into the truck.By doing this, the water spinach will still be fresh tomorrow morning.

5个大棚，总共收了3112斤。取个整数，3100斤。1斤8毛钱，2480元。

After deducting labor costs and fuel costs, the profit is about 700 yuan.

Judging from the speed at which the female workers work today, it is relatively easy for two people to work in one greenhouse.But this is because water spinach production is low now...

In the future, if the output is higher, a greenhouse is 400 square meters, and the work intensity will also increase.At that time, two people will buy a 1-acre greenhouse for 150 yuan per person, and no one should be willing to do it.

Harvesting water spinach looks easy, but it takes hours to squat.Migrant workers, even in the countryside, are not as cheap as people think.Working in the countryside, the price varies depending on the job you do.

If you hire workers, it will cost at least 200 yuan a day, or even more.

"It's not cost-effective to use labor." Chen Mo said: "You have to buy a harvester."

"The kind that harvests forage?" Master Huang has never seen that kind of thing.

Chen Mo took out his mobile phone and clicked on a link. There was an automatic vegetable harvester on it. This harvester was specially developed for water spinach and had a conveyor belt.The harvester collects the water spinach and directly enters the box at the back through the conveyor belt...

There is an introduction to this harvester on the website, as well as a video of the harvester's operation.

The water spinach in the greenhouse is all artificial, and the cost is too high.

If one person is 200 yuan a day, 10 people are 2000 yuan a day.If the price of water spinach is good, that's okay.If the price is bad, you won't make much money.

Things like water spinach cost 2 yuan in the market, and farmers sell them to vegetable vendors for 1 yuan at most.The farm price and market price are cut by at least half, or even more.

Water spinach, the price varies greatly from place to place.There is one price at the farmer's market and another price at the supermarket. The main price is still here at the farmer's market. Cut it in half, which is probably Chen Mo's selling price.

The water spinach in 100 greenhouses cost close to 20 yuan.

"Let's go to the agricultural machinery service station in the city to ask tomorrow." Master Huang said.

"Do you have a phone number for the agricultural machinery service station? Ask now."

"I'll go back and look for it."

After Master Huang left, Zhang Cheng called out, "Brother."

"Ugh."

"Come over for dinner."

"Okay." Chen Mo responded.

It was getting dark, and Chen Mo came to the house next to the warehouse.

Zhang Shan bought a farm to plant jasmine flowers. Jasmine flowers should be cut from cuttings... There is no news yet, and construction will not start until next year.Now in this rural area, Zhang Cheng is watching from here.

Tonight, I will eat water spinach and fried bacon with garlic sprouts.

"How much did you sell today?" Zhang Cheng asked.

"2480 yuan." Chen Mo said.

"That's all?"

"The water spinach hasn't grown up yet. Only 4 catties have been harvested from [-] greenhouses." Chen Mo said.

"After deducting labor, you can't make any money?" Zhang Cheng.

"I'll go out tomorrow and see if I can buy a harvester." Chen Mo said, "Use a harvester to save labor."

"Can you use the harvester in your orchard?"

"Yes." Chen Mo nodded.

The harvester in his orchard can also be used to harvest water spinach, but the wheels of the harvester are in the middle, which will crush the planting field.

For the harvester of water spinach, the wheels should be on both sides of the planting groove.

What Chen Mo thought about before was to look at the labor first, and if it was cheaper to harvest by hand, he would use more manpower.But at the end of the day, I knew it was not easy to harvest water spinach by hand.

Squatting to cut water spinach for several hours...

Not to mention that there is still work to be done, but just letting people squat on the ground for a few hours is very uncomfortable.

The labor harvest is tiring and the cost is high.

The pasture harvester is not very good at harvesting water spinach either.As for the water spinach harvester, Chen Mo had seen it online before, but there was no purchase link for that harvester online...

I know it's there, but I don't know where to buy it.

"Some water spinach sprout early and some sprout late. If we use a harvester, don't we have to harvest the whole batch?" asked the third uncle.

"It means harvesting everything." Chen Mo said: "After harvesting once, fertilize, water, and wait for the next batch to come out before harvesting."

In this case, you can save a lot of energy by asking someone to come over to sort the water spinach, bundle it, load it into the truck, and sit down to do the work.The labor price is also much cheaper.

Back to the orchard after dinner.

The next day, Chen Mo stopped feeding the fish. After having breakfast, he packed the eels and left the orchard.

Bagging the fruit is very slow.

After so many days, I haven’t finished harvesting the navel oranges.

It is said on the Internet that one person can cover [-] bags a day.That is a journeyman, and a person with very fast hands and feet.

Chen Mo's parents invited them from rural areas outside. Many people didn't grow fruit at home, and they didn't put bags on the fruit.In the first two days, one person could only put on several hundred bags a day.After becoming proficient, one person can put on more than 1000 bags in a day.

There should be more than a dozen people invited, and the progress is a little slower.

After picking up Master Huang, Chen Mo first went to sell eels, and then went to the agricultural machinery station.

In the past, the agricultural machinery station was a government unit, and there were very few agricultural machinery in the hilly area on their side.This unit was revoked a long time ago, and its current name is Donglin Agricultural Machinery Co., Ltd.

The agricultural machinery company does not know about the harvester for harvesting water spinach, and they have never heard of a harvester for harvesting water spinach.

Following that, Chen Mo and the others ran to Chengdu.

The water spinach harvester is a very niche piece of machinery. It took me two days in Chengdu to learn about the water spinach harvester from a small machinery sales company.

There is a machinery factory in Chongqing that produces that kind of machine. After contacting the machinery factory, Chen Mo and the others set off directly.

This kind of harvester does not have too high technical content, but it is too niche and usually needs to be customized.
