Super Ranch: Brothers come to Africa to farm

Chapter 403

Since the economic value of these olives is so high, Wang Lu has some thoughts...

And even if you don't rely on it to gain profits, just for the health attributes of this thing, it is always right to plant more.

There is nothing to say about Lao Wei's craftsmanship, but I have to say that his subordinate is really good at making vegetable oil. This is also related to the area where he was born, and the cooking methods are very diverse...

Especially Lao Wei's favorite stew method, it might be much healthier if the olive oil produced by the ranch is used.

Although olive oil is not suitable for stir-frying and frying, it is still a good choice for stewing.

Zhou Rou, in particular, is anxious looking at her body that has not changed at all in Wang Lu's eyes all day long. Either she thinks this dish is too oily or unhealthy.

This also prompted Wang Lu to plan to plant more of these wild olives in the pasture.

However, the places where olives originally grew are relatively remote in the Woulu Mountains and the terrain is relatively complex.

Even driving those African buffaloes to cultivate land is quite troublesome.

Moreover, even if a large area is planted in the future, it will be difficult to take care of it in the deep mountains. The manpower of the ranch is really overwhelmed, and it may be destroyed by some wild animals one day.

Fortunately, the land in the pasture is fertile enough, and there are many areas suitable for growing these olives.

So Wang Lu has already started thinking about moving those olive trees.

But Wang Lu didn't plan to consider the plains near the ranch living area. After all, these places would be the grazing areas for the African Zebu, Bangsi Mara cattle and Australian Wagyu cattle raised on the farm in the future.

Don't let those olive trees be destroyed by these beef cattle before they grow up...

The hills near the living area became Wang Lu's first choice, and soon Wang Lu set his sights on a place.

That land of diamonds!
These diamond fields have been cultivated once, and tourists who come to the ranch basically come here to try their luck, making this mountainous area the most cultivated area in the entire ranch.

So much so that this area can be planted directly without any mechanical work at all.

The looseness of the soil and the abundant sunshine on the slopes of the hills make it very suitable for growing olives. In addition, the drainage conditions of the slopes are also very suitable for the drainage and ventilation requirements of olives.

Especially the bottom soil is all volcanic ash soil from who knows how many thousands of years ago, and the level of nutrients is absolutely nothing to say. The quality of the olives grown in the future will definitely be excellent, and the health properties of the olive oil extracted will be even more perfect. .

The most important thing is that so many tourists have dug deep into the ground. The natural diamonds in this diamond field have been picked up, and their basic value is not much.

Wang Lu plans to open up another diamond field in another area of ​​​​the mountain, allowing tourists to slowly tinker with it. This area that has been developed and mined should be planted.

As soon as he said it, Wang Lu immediately asked Parker to contact a company that could provide olive tree species and purchased a batch of olive saplings. When the time came, they would be able to survive by directly cutting them into the ground.After letting Parker go to work, Wang Lu didn't take it to heart for the time being. After all, it would probably take ten years for these olives to be planted to truly provide value to themselves.

Before that, I might as well go search more in the Woulu Mountains to see if there are any other wild olives.

But considering the long-term economic value, there won't be any big problem just planting some.

Not to mention, this search actually found another oil-producing crop. There is a large area of ​​oil palm growing in the Woulu Mountains.

Palm oil is one of the three largest vegetable oils in the world, which makes this tropical plant very popular and can also create considerable economic value.

"Boss, the Woulu Mountains are simply a treasure house. We don't even need to purchase supplies. We can just go into the mountains and search for anything we need!"

Parker said this, and Wang Lu also believed it. The system had indeed found a geomantic treasure for him.

Those oil palms were full of palm fruits. After the veterans brought back the piles of palm fruits, Wang Lu was shocked.

Especially these oil palms can bear fruit once a year. If the output of this fruit is used to extract palm oil, it is estimated that it will definitely be enough to use the pasture for a year!So Wang Lu doesn't plan to plant too much. Anyway, he organizes manpower once a year to pick those palm fruits and take them back to press for oil. He can solve the whole year's problems in one trip, so why bother!
Now it seems that at least I don’t need to purchase oils!
Currently, the oil crops in the pasture include, in addition to the newly discovered oil palms and olives, sesame, peanuts and other crops that have been grown before. These are traditional oil crops.

These are all vegetable oils, and there is no shortage of animal oils. How can people who eat meat, kill pigs and cows not kill a lot of fat?The boiled butter and lard are never missing in the kitchen of the ranch. Even if you eat them interchangeably, these types of cooking oils are enough!
In fact, not only oil, the pasture is now completely self-sufficient in food!

The rice grown in the rice fields, as well as corn, potatoes and other food crops, the yield at harvest is completely enough for the pasture to consume every year, especially the potatoes, you even have to find a way to give them away, or make them into potato noodles or something like that. Only then can it be consumed completely.

As for meat, let alone meat. The cattle and sheep raised in the early stage of the pasture are completely enough for the per capita consumption of the pasture. Not to mention that if the breeding farm is built in the later stage, what kind of family will eat Wagyu beef every day?

There are also birds such as guinea fowl and ducks, and the rich fish resources in the Dome River are already self-sufficient.

Vegetables can also be planted. Depending on the fertility of the pasture land and some vegetables with a fast growth cycle, it would be easy for Wang Lu to harvest tons in a short period of time.

It can be said that the ranch is already self-sufficient in terms of basic living supplies.

Even more extreme, it is not difficult for the ranch to provide such things as firewood, rice, oil and salt.

Take soy sauce as an example. At worst, we can grow some soybeans and ferment it ourselves!

Of course, it's obviously not worth the effort.

The mulberry forests planted along the Dome River have also begun to bear fruit.

When the time comes to get a batch of silkworms to breed, maybe you can wear the silk clothes produced by the ranch, and there will also be mulberries produced. Then you can make some mulberry wine or something, it will be delicious!
