Super Ranch: Brothers come to Africa to farm

Chapter 446 Contracting hometown land!

After Wang Lu heard what Wang Lu said, he quickly said:

"You kid, if you have something to say, say it quickly, don't be shy!"

Wang Lu immediately expressed his thoughts:
“Let everyone grow soybeans!”

Growing soybeans?
The third uncle was stunned when he heard this, and then said:

"Wang Lu, do you have anything to say? Although you can earn more money from growing beans than from growing rice, that's also limited..."

Wang Lu is also very clear about the third uncle's concerns. His hometown is a typical southern mountain village. Basically, every household grows rice. At most, some wasteland is used to grow other staple foods such as sesame and soybeans. The most important thing is that for them, growing soybeans is no different from growing rice. They also rely on farming to make a living, and they can't make much more money.

But Wang Lu had his own ideas!
At present, if you want to make a profit by growing soybeans in China, the value created by soybeans alone is still very little. Basically, you have to rely on subsidies issued by the state. Since the source of soybeans is controlled by the four major grain merchants, domestic farmers have been encouraged to plant them. Soybeans, and subsidies were issued.

And compared with rice and corn, which are grown in large areas, the degree of mechanization is lower, the planting area is not that large, and the profit is naturally smaller.

In fact, for all staple foods, if you want to make money, you basically have to take the path of scale. Only with large quantities can you make substantial profits.

And this is the reason why Wang Lu proposed this idea.

What is most popular in the countryside?The most wasteland!

It is possible to cultivate vast tracts of wasteland casually, and even if it is a mountain village, due to the topography of the terrain, the nearby mountains cannot actually be called mountains at all. They are just hills at most. After simple reclamation, There will be a lot of mountains.

It is naturally impossible to use these wastelands and mountainous areas to grow rice, but it is completely feasible to use them to grow soybeans.

Soybeans do not have high soil geological requirements for planting, and they can also play a role in nourishing the soil. According to research, soybeans can be planted in mountains below an altitude of 500 meters!
In this case, it should not be a problem to cultivate large-scale soybean plots around the entire hometown village!
The most critical point is that Wang Lu will soon use his vitality energy to improve the soybeans grown in the pasture, and new soybean varieties will soon be produced.

Based on previous examples of rice, corn and wheat varieties, the yield of new soybean varieties is likely to be much higher than that of existing soybean varieties.

Large-scale planting, coupled with the selection of high-yielding varieties, and national planting subsidies, the profits will be very considerable!
In particular, after going to Beijing to meet with the old man in charge of agriculture, Wang Lu knew clearly that once he really came up with a high-yielding soybean variety, the country would not hesitate to promote its planting on a large scale. Grain merchants fought back.

By then, domestic soybean reserves will grow rapidly. In other words, if soybeans are planted in the village, the purchase will basically be taken care of by the state, and there will be no need to worry about sales. As long as there are no natural or man-made disasters, it will basically be A sure-fire deal!
Of course, Wang Lu couldn't say much about this, but said sincerely to the third uncle:
"Third uncle, I plan to set up an agricultural cooperative in our village. Every household in the village can participate in it. By then, large-scale planting will be carried out. And in my opinion, soybeans will become a food species in short supply in the future, at least in China. It will be like this in the next few years, and you will definitely make money!" Wang Lu knew that this kind of thing could only be said vaguely, but he still underestimated his prestige among the third uncle and the villagers.

After Wang Lu finished speaking, the third uncle said almost immediately:
"Uncle Qin San has no culture in his life, but there is one thing. I listen to people's advice! You are the most educated kid in our village and the most promising kid. I, the old man, absolutely believe in what you say. I believe it. Everyone has the same idea as me!"

When Wang Lu heard this, his heart suddenly felt warm. He knew how precious this kind of unconditional trust was!
"I'm going to go door-to-door and ask a person in charge to discuss this matter. Please tell me what the specific regulations are!"

After the third uncle finished speaking, he excitedly left Wang Lu's yard and started running around the village.

Soon, the courtyard of Wang Lu's family returned to the bustling state of the day. There were only about a hundred households in the whole village, and one person from each family crowded the courtyard. In other words, the courtyard in the countryside is big, otherwise it would be very crowded. There is really no way to accommodate so many people.

"Everyone, please be quiet for now. I've called you over and you already know what's going on. Let's listen to Wang Lu now! If you have any questions, please tell me. I can't say anything. If I don't make any money by then, Money may encounter a natural or man-made disaster, and if anyone acts recklessly behind his back, don't blame me for turning against him!"

As soon as the third uncle spoke up, everyone fell silent.

Then Wang Lu told everyone about the establishment of an agricultural cooperative to grow soybeans, and then some villagers responded:

"Lu Zi, you are the most promising person in our village. I believe what you say. We will switch to soybeans next year!"

"That's right, Lu Zi is so promising, how can he still tell lies to us? There's no need to hesitate, just do it and be done!"

"Third uncle, don't worry. Although we are poor, the truth is still clear. Ren Luzi has already earned so much money. Why does he need to farm with us? It's not just to help us! Besides, Ren Luzi It’s not like we are asked to do anything else. Growing soybeans is also farming. We have been farming all our lives and still don’t know the ropes. Although we can’t make much money from farming, if we lose money, it only proves that you are a lazy man. , has nothing to do with anyone else."

"That's right, our village doesn't have that kind of gossip!"

Listening to the villagers expressing their opinions one after another, the old village chief also showed a satisfied look, while Wang Lu was a little moved.

Since there is nothing left to say and no one has any opinions, the agricultural cooperative can be put on the agenda immediately!
Wang Lu's plan was to invest his own money first, rent a batch of equipment, and reclaim all the wasteland near the village. Of course, such a large-scale reclamation of wasteland would require an application report to the township.

After all, it is basically a certainty to organize the villagers to grow soybeans to make money, but there are some early expenses, but for Wang Lu, it is nothing, and it can be regarded as his contribution to the village.
