Super Ranch: Brothers come to Africa to farm

Chapter 296 Tobacco leaf planting plan!

Even in order to divert the embarrassment, Parker at the side also thoughtfully changed the topic:

"Boss, the local climate is very suitable for the growth of tobacco leaves, so it can be considered a good economic crop. You can even find some wild tobacco leaves in the wild. It's just that the local people's baking skills are not very good. They basically just fool around. , the finished product is very choking, it is simply unacceptable, let alone the way of smoking this kind of local cigarette!"

As Parker spoke, there was a different look on his face. It was obvious that he didn't like the way these local black people wasted their money. There was even a look of pain in it. It was obvious that this guy had tried it but was persuaded to quit. .

"I just don't know where these guys got the tobacco leaves from. Speaking of the temperature and lighting conditions of our pasture, we even have abundant water sources from the Dome River. Planting tobacco leaves is a good choice."

Parker said it casually, but Wang Lu took it seriously.

Needless to say, the hard natural conditions of our own pasture. The stable temperate and tropical climate all year round is destined to be able to grow most crops and plants on this land. This is a unique advantage.

As far as he knew, tobacco was one of the few cash crops grown locally, so he had the foundation for its cultivation.

The same is true for cash crops such as cotton, which is even the most important export crop along with coffee and cashew nuts.

It’s not that Wang Lu has never thought about opening up cotton fields to plant cotton on a large scale. After all, cotton cultivation by black people is considered a traditional skill...
But because of this, cotton is just like food crops. If you want to make money by planting one or two acres, it will be completely useless. Even the income from dozens or hundreds of acres is of little significance to Wang Lu. He must You have to reach a certain scale to make enough profits.

The most critical thing is that there is too little room for premium in this thing.

To put it bluntly, so what if the cotton grown is better?There are many places in the world where cotton can be grown. Even in China, there are large tracts of cotton fields. The differences between the varieties used as raw materials for clothing are actually not that big, at least ordinary people cannot detect it. What's more, there are So many artificial chemically synthesized materials are also used in clothing raw materials, such as polyester and acrylic.

Therefore, although Wang Lu has always had an idea, he has not yet started to implement it.

"It's better to consider planting cotton, at least it's not a high priority! But tobacco can be considered!"

You know, among Wang Lu's plans for the ranch in the new year, developing new financial resources is also a top priority. After all, several of the ranch's current financial resources, such as natural rubber trees, sumac trees, and cashew nuts, are actually from the Woulu Mountains. Ready-made, the scale is not too big, and the income from several items combined can be considered considerable.

The only thing left that can provide stable income is the gold mining boat on the Dome River, and then there is the tourism industry that has gradually developed on the ranch.

As for the [-] acres of sisal land, the first batch of sisal is immature, so there is no profit at all.

Therefore, Wang Lu is also interested in starting some new projects. Since his pasture has a vast land area, he naturally has to consider planting industry, and the local labor force is cheap, which provides sufficient conditions. However, he did not have a specific idea or idea before. It's just a choice, plus the hundreds of millions of profits that the Nongken Group has brought to him, it's enough to give Wang Lu the confidence to make a fuss.

Maybe this is the confidence brought by having deep wealth...

After careful consideration, Wang Lu really became interested in the tobacco planting plan.

After all, tobacco leaves are different from cotton, and there are so many articles that can be done with this thing.

Wang Lu doesn't smoke himself, but he also knows clearly that the prices of different brands of tobacco are quite different.Can Huazi and Qunzi have the same worth?
The profit margins here are large and can be manipulated. The same high-quality tobacco and ordinary tobacco are naturally not the same price, especially with the previous precedents of rice and corn varieties. You must know that Wang Lu has a lot of The system is a killer.

While Wang Lu was still thinking about it, Amanda on the side, after chatting with the guys smoking local cigarettes for a few words, also reported to Wang Luhui with some surprise:
"Boss, the tobacco leaves they have were collected from the nearby mountains, but they just roasted them a little after bringing them back!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Lu's eyes instantly lit up with joy.

The Woulu Mountains really gave him enough surprises, and it was the same this time.

But when you think about Wang Lu, it becomes clear. The Woulu Mountains have plenty of sunlight and springs flowing through them. The soil is more fertile than the land on the grassland, so it is normal for the production to be richer.

But Wang Lu couldn't tell whether there was any systematic credit here.

After all, who makes the quality of various species produced in the Woulu Mountains seem to be quite outstanding, far beyond ordinary?

Wang Lu then asked Amanda to drive these black people to lead the way. He couldn't wait to see the tobacco growing in the mountains. This was related to whether the ranch's cash crop planting plan this year could get off to a good start.

After several black workers figured out that the young Chinese boss had no intention of kicking them away, they happily led the way, and the journey was smooth.

It has to be said that if these black people put aside their sneaky temperament, at least their endurance and physical strength are quite good. Who knows what their natural advantages are? Even the sprinters and long-distance runners in large events are basically all good athletes. Mostly black.

The piece of wild tobacco grew on a hilltop near the natural rubber forest. When Wang Lu saw it, he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

The tobacco leaves are serious tobacco leaves, but the quantity and scale are too small.

These broad-branched tobacco leaves are sparsely distributed throughout the mountain. They only grow in places without forest cover. Although the number is small, the growth is quite good.

Although there was not the large-scale tobacco leaves that covered the mountains and plains as he had imagined, and his wish to pick up ready-made tobacco for free was not fulfilled, Wang Lu was only slightly disappointed, but he was not discouraged.

After all, these tobacco leaves in front of me at least prove that it is perfectly fine to grow this tobacco on my own pasture.

All that's left is to consult relevant experts. As long as they get a positive opinion, I'm afraid this matter will be officially mentioned on the ranch's agenda.

This matter is also simple. Anyway, professors Qin and Zhao are currently in the pasture, so they don't use it in vain.

After coming down the mountain, Wang Lu went directly to these two people and started to collect wool.
