Chapter 172 Food Issues
Shen Li looked at the world map, but in the end he still didn't make any decisions. For him, it's enough to keep all the stores making money now.
In fact, Shen Li has always been concerned about the food issue in Huaguo. People in Huaguo can live a hard life, but they can't be hungry all the time.
Now the entire country of China has a concentrated population, and all the factories that manufacture agricultural machinery are working overtime to produce enough machinery for the national agricultural mechanization.
The most important thing at this time is to ensure that the autumn harvest can proceed safely. Only with enough food can the situation in Hua be stabilized.
Otherwise, take a look at the former big food importing country Nanbang.
The population density in that small place was astonishing. After the lack of imported food, the people simply did not have enough food. The consortium above controlled all the food, so the riots immediately started.
People are the same no matter where they are.
If there is food and drink, it is easy to talk about anything. Once there are more people who are short of food, it will definitely cause big problems.
Once people are hungry, they can do anything, so each country actually has a certain amount of food reserves. The average food reserves of Blue Star countries are enough to feed for 14 months.
To compare this point, we have to say that the talents of the Chinese people are farming, and there are Hua people who are used to farming everywhere, and they always have more food reserves.
According to survey data, in the past ten years, China's grain output has been in the range of 4.9 million tons to 5.3 million tons.
The national grain reserve is about 2.5 million tons, which is enough for 14 billion people to survive for more than 5 months.
If you include the total grain output of China, it is about 7.7 million tons. This amount of grain can fully consume the people of China for 18 months, that is, one and a half years.
The stock of grain reserves in Huaguo is far higher than the 14-month stock in the world. That is to say, the grain reserves in Huaguo can satisfy at least 14 billion people for more than a year and a half.
Reserved grain is not guaranteed to last as long as it is stored. In fact, the stored grain needs to be replaced every year. Since the old grain cannot be eaten, most of the old grain will be used to make wine or feed, and then the vacated inventory will be restocked. Add new food.
Huaguo has a large population base and a large demand for food. The annual food stock must be a little more to keep the total food stock running at a high level.
The most powerful thing about Huaguo is that only with the third largest area of Blue Star, it has not only developed its economy to the second largest among Blue Stars, but also pulled the largest population of Blue Stars to reserve food to the leading position of all Blue Stars.
Shen Li looked at the data given by Lingtou, and he admired it very much in his heart. You can check the chaos in other countries on the Internet. Compared with the stability of Huaguo, it is even more enviable.
Shenli once worried that the Hua Congress was in crisis and he would expose the system, or find the system to buy enough food.
However, there is no such situation in Huaguo. The state's macro-control ensures that food prices are stable, everyone can afford to eat, and the farmland is fully mechanized to minimize the need for manpower to ensure people's safety.
According to the situation in various places, Shen Li found that the conditions of these farmlands are still very good. Compared with previous years, the expected grain output in the fields is even better.
This made Shenli a little puzzled, and then Lingtou said: "This is because the situation of each family was different in the past, and the time for spraying pesticides was separated. The insects may happen to be in the field without pesticides, and then the pesticides in the adjacent fields have lost their effectiveness." , the bugs migrated over again.”
"It's different now. Almost all the pesticides are sprayed by airplanes. At the same time, the pesticides spread all over the area, and the bugs naturally have no way to survive. Under such circumstances, the growing environment of the crops is better."
After listening to Shen Li, he couldn't help but feel that this might be a good thing. In fact, the cost of anything will gradually decrease if it is mass-produced and mechanized.
Hua people have a strong land complex, and their own land, no matter how little it is, cannot be without it. Such a situation is not conducive to the development of agriculture.
With the current development of science and technology and mechanization, a family can divide several acres of land into several pieces, and the land next to others cannot guarantee that others grow the same things as their own.
Under such circumstances, whether it is harvesting with a harvester, or applying pesticides to kill insects and weeds, it is very troublesome.
But it’s different now. Each family buys shares with their fields, and the state farms the land, and then distributes grain to each family. Under such circumstances, after this year’s autumn harvest, the state can make the most reasonable use of the farmland.
Now students and professors from various agricultural colleges have been distributed all over the country to select the most suitable crops for planting according to the soil properties of the farmlands and the local rainfall conditions.
Once the whole country starts such large-scale planting, with the cooperation of various factors such as modern high-quality seeds, advanced machinery, and scientific methods, it is likely to form an opportunity for a large-scale production explosion.
Shen Li suddenly said: "Lingtou, keep an eye on it. If there are serious problems in someone's proposal, they must be resolved as soon as possible. You can't make fun of the grain production problem."
Lingtou said, "Yes, manager."
Shen Li's worry was not unreasonable, because although the people in the Agricultural College had a higher level of knowledge, when it came to farming, they would definitely have shortcomings. This required the help of old farmers, otherwise there might be inappropriate actual design.
While watching all kinds of news, Shenli asked Lingtou about the development of these things.
There is an old saying in Huaguo, if you achieve success, you will benefit the world at the same time.
Shen Li has not reached the point, but he has some abilities and can help many people, so he wants to do more things, and the feeling of giving silently (controlling behind) is very good.
At noon on September 9th, Shenli signed in and got the Jingu branch of Lexin Paotu Restaurant.
When Yang Yuan came here today, there was still a hint of sadness on his little face.
Seeing him like this, Shen Li couldn't help saying: "Yang Yuan, what happened to you?"
Yang Yuan's face was tense, and he said, "Uncle, do you think those monsters will attack our country?"
Shen Li smiled, rubbed his head, and said: "These are not things you should worry about. Huaguo will definitely have no problems. When you go to university in the future, if you want to protect your family and the country, go to university." Military academy."
After listening to Shen Li's words, Yang Yuan seemed to have found his direction in life, and said with a smile, "Well, which military academy is the best, uncle, do you know?"
"National Defense University, you should aim for this." Shen Li said.
Yang Yuan nodded vigorously: "Okay, then I will study at the National Defense University in the future."
"Okay, if you are admitted to the National Defense University, I will personally send you to school." Shen Li said with a smile.
"Well, thank you uncle." Yang Yuan said very happily.
"Okay, let's go to Lingtou, solve the problems you don't know, go out and eat something before going back." Shen Li smiled and patted Yang Yuan's head.
