Super Ranch: Brothers come to Africa to farm

Chapter 336 Preparations!

In other words, under the same situation, Wang Lu’s cost of promoting oil sedge in the pasture is much lower than that in China!

At the same time, Wang Lu did not forget the system's transformation of the entire ranch land!
The crops produced on the land of his own pasture are all excellent and high-yielding. This is Wang Lu's biggest reliance!

Whether it is potatoes, rice, corn, or even sisal grown by oneself, there is almost no big trouble. This is proof, and this is all thanks to having a piece of good land!

Even the grasses that grow in the grassland area are growing quite well after the rainy season. Wang Lu believes that there won't be any big problems even if they plant oil sedge instead!

Of course, Wang Lu couldn't change the entire pasture to sedge at once!

This must be done step by step. In fact, it is impossible for all the grass species in the entire pasture to be turned into sedge. Food provides a single source of nutrients, which is not a good thing for the wild animals on the grassland.

If you don't get enough nutrients, those wild animals will naturally leave their pastures, and you will suffer a lot by then!

This is also a situation Wang Lu doesn't want to see.

However, there is no problem that oil sedge can be used as one of the main pasture species in the pasture. After all, oil sedge itself is an excellent pasture choice and can provide a lot of nutrients.

At least in the early stage, it should not be a problem to replant the grasslands near the Woulu Mountains.

Wang Lu's plan is to first cultivate about [-] acres of turf in the grassland area around the Woulu Mountains, eradicate the original pasture, and then plant oil sedge to see the effect first!

Anyway, the growth cycle of these oil sedges only lasts three to four months, leaving Wang Lu with too much room for trial and error!
Even if the oil sedge plant fails in the end, it will at most result in a small loss of money and will not have much impact on the pasture ecology.

But if it succeeds, the profits that can be gained from extracting the oil from the [-] acres of sedge eradicated into oil will be very high.

What's more important is that there are still hundreds of thousands of acres of land in the grassland area for you to develop. Even a fool can figure out the profits!

And the more he learned about oil sedge, the more optimistic Wang Lu became about this grass species native to Africa. This thing basically has no diseases and pests, and at most it is just a borer. This kind of single disease and pest is easy to prevent. , it takes no effort at all.

Oil sedge does not have high requirements for the growth environment. It can grow even in harsh conditions. This is one of the main reasons why it was introduced in China before. As long as the climate is mild, the soil is soft, and the drainage is good, people can survive. Or The best kind of life!

Even the drought resistance of oil sedge is quite strong, which shows that they can survive for a long time even in the dry season. Of course, its water demand is also very large, but as long as it is watered frequently, it will be enough anyway. The water source of the Dome River exists, so just install a set of irrigation equipment.

It’s even less worrying when it comes to the rainy season!
As a result, Wang Lu quickly made a decision after discussing with professors Qin and Zhao.

Do it!Make a big show!
Then Wang Lu summoned Parker and Old Wei.

"Guys, we are going to be busy again. This time I plan to develop the grassland area as well!"

Wang Lu got straight to the point, and Parker was the first to jump up and down.

"Boss, you have finally figured it out. We should have done this a long time ago!" Old Wei also expressed his attitude on behalf of the veterans:

"Boss, brothers have been idle for a long time and their bones have softened a lot. Just give orders. Brothers will not pull their crotches!"

Then Wang Lu briefly explained his plan to plant oil sedge in the grassland. Parker and Old Wei had no objection at all. In the pasture, Wang Lu always gave orders and they followed them to the letter!

"It looks like I can control that John Deere 9620rx again. This big machine finally has its uses!"

Parker said excitedly.

Wang Lu also smiled when he heard this. If, as he thought, he could grow two or three seasons of oil sedge throughout the year, then the John Deere 9620rx he purchased would really come in handy.

Only this performance beast can hold such a vast working area!

Of course, if you want to officially start planting sedge, the seed problem must be solved first.

But this is not difficult. This thing is originally from North Africa and has been introduced from all over the world. It is not a rare thing at all, but not many people in the country know about it yet.

It is not difficult to obtain the seeds of this crop as long as you ask the Nongken Group to ask some questions.

Naturally, the Agricultural Reclamation Group would not refuse Wang Lu's request.

At the same time, Wang Lu also said hello to Old Sanders and Richard, indicating that he might have to use a large amount of funds recently.

"Boss, your investment is very healthy, and the liquid funds on your account are quite abundant. As long as you say a word at any time, I can transfer hundreds of millions of available funds for you in a short time. If there are more, I can also sell It’s totally okay to sell some long-term stocks or bank deposits!”

Wang Lu was very satisfied with the answer he got from Richard!
What Old Sanders has to do is to deal with some legal issues regarding the purchase of oil sedge seeds and the signing of contracts. Wang Lu can only rest assured if they are left to him.

“It’s great to hear you’re making new moves, it looks like you’re still as passionate about your ranch as you were when you first owned it!”

For this reason, Old Sanders and Richard made a special trip to the ranch and discussed with Wang Lu some specific matters that may need to be confirmed in advance before leaving.

In addition, Wang Lu also notified Huang Zheng's engineering team.

Yes, Wang Lu has a new project task for them, but this time it's not a complicated project, just a simple green storage warehouse.

You know, it is the rainy season now, and the grass on the pasture grasslands is growing very well.

If Wang Lu wants to plant oil sedge, he must first eradicate other pastures on the land. It would be too wasteful to just abandon those pastures.

It is a good choice to collect them all and use them as silage fodder. Although the cattle and sheep he raises can obtain fresh forage even in the dry season in the living area by relying on the grass that keeps growing on both sides of the Dome River, Wang Lu can completely These silage feeds are sold to other farmers!
