Super Ranch: Brothers come to Africa to farm

Chapter 228 A bumper harvest of food!

The rice is ripe right before your eyes, but the corn, which has a shorter growth cycle, is already fully mature.

The corn ears in the several acres of corn fields in the pasture have turned yellow and become loose. Not only are the corn cobs big, but the key is that the grains are plump, which is really pleasing to see!
"Good guy, I have been farming in my hometown for several years, and I have never seen such good corn buds! They are growing well! I just don't know how they taste..."

Looking at the corn stalks in the field filled with buds, Old Wei was startled and couldn't help but feel worried.

"Hurry up and harvest all these corns. Let's make some fresh cornmeal to eat!"

As one of the staple foods, corn has always been the main food crop and agricultural and animal feed raw material in the northern region of the country. It is precisely because of this that many improved varieties have appeared on the market to increase yield. However, these high-yielding varieties are basically It is used as feed for livestock and poultry.

After all, there are gains and losses. If you blindly pursue high yields and use chemical fertilizers to accelerate ripening, the price you pay for high yields is poor taste. This is why many people now feel that corn is not as delicious as before.

The yield of corn in his own pasture is definitely higher than that of ordinary varieties, so Old Wei is worried.

Wang Lu didn't think much about it. He just broke off a few corn sticks and put one into each of Wei and Parker's hands. He kept one for himself and broke off the corn leaves outside. Almost instantly, Wang Lu Lu then smelled a unique fragrance lingering in his nose, which cheered him up.

Looking at the golden and plump particles in his hand, coupled with the temptation of the fragrance, Wang Lu took a bite directly.

No fertilizer has been used on our corn at all, it is purely nourished by the fertility of the ground, and it has not been treated with any medicine, so there is no pressure to eat it raw.

As soon as he took it into his mouth, Wang Lu's mouth was filled with a sweet taste, and there was a slightly surprised look on his face.

This damn corn grown by myself tastes really good, at least it’s better than the fruit corn, sweet waxy corn and the like that are sold in big supermarkets in China with all kinds of gimmicks!
There seems to be no loss of texture or taste due to the high yield.

The most important thing is that Wang Lu seems to remember that what he planted was just an ordinary corn variety...
In the end, Wang Lu could only attribute it to the fertility of the pasture land and systematic transformation!

Then Wei and Parker, like Wang Lu, personally tasted the taste of the freshly picked corn, and they were both a little surprised.

"Shet, I swear this is the best tasting and textured corn I've ever tasted in my life!"

Parker was surprised as always, but even Old Wei couldn't help but sigh:
"How can this... taste so good? If it were all ground into cornmeal, it would be a waste!"

Then Wang Lu also made a decision:
"Hurry up and pick, let brothers try this new corn!"

Soon the Lovol 704 was driven out of the garage. The front of the car was equipped with a special corn harvesting bucket. Corn is also one of the main crops in Africa, so this kind of equipment is specially prepared for harvesting corn. Very easy to purchase and can be purchased in Arusha.

The Lovol 704 equipped with a professional harvesting bucket only needs to make a circle back and forth in the corn field, and all the grain on the corn stalks can be stripped off, and the corn stalks can also be crushed.The harvesting of food crops in such plain areas does not require a lot of manpower, and can be directly handed over to agricultural machinery.

Parker controlled the Lovo 704 and drove directly into the corn field, with a bucket truck towed behind it to hold the picked corn cobs. The total area of ​​the corn field was only ten acres, and it was quickly occupied. The harvest is complete.

This is without the John Deere 9620rx, otherwise with the efficiency of this big guy, the time may be shortened by half!
Wang Lu and the veterans were busy transporting the newly harvested corn to the living area. This task took even more effort than harvesting...
The harvest of the last ten acres of cornfield was also counted.

More than eight tons!In other words, the yield per mu exceeds [-] kilograms!
This is definitely considered a high yield. The yield of one acre of domestic cornfield is about [-] to [-] kilograms.

It doesn't matter if it's just a high output, the key is the little taste, and when combined, it's a bit scary!

After all, the yields of those varieties with special tastes are not very high and cannot be compared to ordinary corn varieties.

But the ten acres of corn planted by Wang Lu now seem to be doing the opposite!

For this reason, Wang Lu could only store the corn in the newly built factory building and let it temporarily serve as a grain warehouse, so that it would not be exposed to too much rain during the rainy season, causing the fresh corn to be damaged. Go bad.

But if the more than eight tons of corn can really be eaten by the twenty or so and nearly thirty mouths in the pasture, it will last until the end of the year of the monkey.

The only option is to find a way to grind it into cornmeal or dry it and store it.

But just like what Lao Wei said, the texture and taste of these corns, it would be a pity if they were really ground into cornmeal or something.

Then Wang Lu started to think about it:
"Perhaps we need to build a cold storage in the pasture to store some grain or other food that is usually difficult to preserve for a long time..."

This kind of fresh corn can be stored in the cold storage for a whole year without spoiling, which means that Wang Lu can eat it whenever he wants without worrying about spoilage.

As for cornmeal and so on, you can also make some appropriately and taste it!
Wang Lu suddenly became excited. Not only were these fresh corns, but also those potatoes, if there was a good harvest in the future, he wouldn't have to eat all of them to make vermicelli, he could just store them in the cold storage!
Immediately, Wang Lu began to search the price of cold storage equipment on the Internet. The engineering team that was still busy in the ranch was afraid that the construction period would have to be extended again.

They still have to build a cold storage for Wang Lu...

Of course, for the engineering team, they naturally want it. As long as there is a project, it means making money, especially working for compatriot Wang Lu, that is nothing to say.

After all, Wang Lu has never treated the construction workers of these engineering teams poorly. He would also call the construction team members over for ranch dinners and other events to join in the fun!
