Super Ranch: Brothers come to Africa to farm

Chapter 230 The old professor’s shock?

The heavy ears of rice also relieved the pressure, and a large amount of rice was harvested. For a time, the entire field was full of hard work of veterans busy transporting grain.

Even professors Qin and Zhao squatted on the ground, picked up a few grains of rice left in the ground, and began to observe.

"What kind of rice is this guy growing? It seems that the fullness is quite good, and the glossiness and rice fragrance are also extraordinary. Are they comparable to the mainstream varieties in China?"

"That's not all. Didn't you notice that the rice yield in each of these ten acres of rice fields seems to be quite high? I made a visual estimate and found that the yield per mu is at least 650 kilograms. Among mainstream edible varieties, this is already It’s a pretty good result, we’ll have to wait until the harvest is finished to find out the details!”

These two professors, both experts in agriculture, could tell almost immediately the quality of the rice grown by Wang Lu.

"It's strange to say that this guy's agricultural knowledge is not as good as the graduate students who have just been recruited by our institute. Even the freshmen majoring in agriculture are better than him. And I don't usually see this guy having much knowledge about these crop fields. He took care of me, but the crops he planted seemed to be of good quality, and the yield was not low... It’s so irritating that people are so different from each other, is there really a saying that God rewards food?"

Professor Qin also muttered, and the rice harvesting work over there has also come to an end.

In the end, there were about ten tons of new rice harvested from these ten acres of rice fields. The yield per mu alone was only slightly lower than the yield per mu of corn, reaching about 750 kilograms per mu.

Professors Qin and Zhao were stunned after seeing this data. After looking at each other, they directly found Wang Lu.

Wang Lu here was busy threshing out part of the rice so that everyone could taste the new rice first. When he saw two old professors approaching him, he couldn't help but laugh and said:

"I say you two don't have to be so impatient. When the chaff is removed from the new rice, I guarantee you two will be there!"

However, the two professors Qin and Zhao did not answer the call. They directly grabbed Wang Lu and asked impatiently:
"What variety did your boy choose? What kind of fertilizer did you use during the cultivation? And have the cultivation methods been improved?"

Wang Lu, who was confused by the question, was also a little confused. Improving cultivation methods?Use fertilizer?

"My rice variety was obtained from the Agricultural Reclamation Group. Besides, how can I improve any cultivation techniques? You two really think highly of me!"

"It's impossible. If that's the case, the yield per acre of these rice plants can't be so high! There must be something wrong!"

Professor Qin's words made Wang Lu even more interested, and he subconsciously said:

"Is there anything strange about this? The yield is not high, only 750 kilograms per mu. What do you two think? I see that the yields per mu of hybrid rice varieties in China are more than 1000 kilograms. I just Where are you? You two are still agricultural experts..."

Seeing the confident look on Wang Lu's face, Professor Qin and Professor Zhao suddenly looked very angry. "I told you to study more, but you just don't listen! Domestic hybrid rice can achieve a yield of more than 1000 kilograms per mu, but it is a high-yielding variety specially bred by others. Besides, there are people in their experimental fields from sowing to harvesting. What skills do you have in completing the cultivation work meticulously? Currently, some of the popular popular rice varieties with good taste in the country have a yield of about [-] to [-] kilograms per mu. This is definitely a high yield for you!"

"The taste of those high-yielding varieties is not as good as that of normal rice varieties. Basically, they will not be sown as mainstream varieties. But let alone the high yield of the rice you planted, the quality looks not bad at all!"

After hearing this, Wang Lu probably understood why the two old professors were so excited.

Wang Lu suddenly thought of a possibility, which could only be attributed to the transformation of the system...
He really couldn't explain this, so he could only be careless:
"Perhaps the land on my pasture is fertile enough, and the yield per acre of corn I grow is also not low!"

The two old professors who heard this did not accept Wang Lu's method. After glaring at each other, they said in unison:
"We must respect science! We plan to take some samples and send them to a professional laboratory for testing to see what is going on!"

And after the two old professors tasted the rice steamed from the new rice, this idea became more and more determined.

The rice steamed from this newly produced rice has plump grains, a fragrant fragrance, and a moderately soft and glutinous texture with a slight sweetness. Even Wang Lu was shocked.

"Boss, our rice tastes so good. I have grown it in my hometown, but I have never grown anything of such high quality!"

Lao Wei's words once again confirmed the quality of rice grown on the pasture.

The two old professors impatiently took the samples they selected and left. Wang Lu didn't care, but directed his veterans to dry the newly harvested rice while the sun was shining.

This fresh rice can be stored for a long time as long as it is dried and stored in a warehouse. When you want to eat it, you only need to take off the husk.

There will be no shortage of food in the pasture for the next whole year, and there will even be a lot of surplus. Wang Lu really doesn't know what to do with it for a while.

After all, there is too much rice harvested this year. The corn can be ground into cornmeal or something to improve the taste, but rice is not easy to get, and grinding it into rice flour will not consume much inventory.

As for selling it, Wang Lu has never considered it at all. The local area has little spending power, and their staple food is not rice...
All we can do is store it first...
For a week, the entire ranch was immersed in the joy of harvest, and time officially passed New Year's Day and began to enter the new year.

It's just that there doesn't seem to be any special celebrations here in Africa. Instead, Wang Lu held a dinner at the ranch and called over the construction team, professors Qin and Zhao, and their students. A New Year's Day party was held.

After three rounds of drinking, Professor Qin also sat next to Wang Lu:
"In a few days, we two old bones will return to China for the New Year. The rice and corn you planted have been sent to a professional laboratory for comprehensive testing and genetic sequencing to see if we can find out whether they are of such high quality. Reasons why it’s good and productive.”
