Super Ranch: Brothers come to Africa to farm

Chapter 632 It’s tasteless to eat, it’s a pity to throw it away!

Guano accumulates for a long time to form a guano layer. When the guano layer decomposes, the organic matter is oxidized, the soluble salts are leached away, and the phosphate part remains in place to form a guano phosphate rock layer.

This is the general principle behind the formation of guano phosphate rock that Wang Lu searched online.

This also explains why there is such a guano phosphate rock on the shores of Lake Victoria.

As the largest freshwater lake in Africa, it has naturally become a paradise for birds from all over East Africa. The millions of birds that migrate to Lake Victoria every year naturally produce guano.

Coupled with the abundant water vapor and abundant rainfall in the lake area, long-term erosion has become another key factor in the formation of guano phosphate rock.

If ordinary people encounter a lump of bird droppings while walking on the road, they will only say it is bad luck, but if they encounter this amount of bird droppings, they will only say it is pie in the sky!

In the last century, when chemical fertilizers had not developed to what they are today, this kind of natural fertilizer that did not even require processing was almost a scarce resource. It is no wonder that Nauru can make a lot of money.

Even now that chemical fertilizers have become quite mature and developed, the value of these guano phosphate rocks has not diminished.

Who made most people start to pursue the keyword of health? One of the criteria for evaluating the health of general crops, vegetables and fruits is whether chemical fertilizers are added.

But Wang Lu himself was born in a farmer's family and knew this very well. Without some fertilizer, most of the land in the country has been cultivated for thousands of years and has been squeezed to the limit. If you want a good harvest, you must grow it. It is almost impossible that the crops, fruits and vegetables are of good quality.

At this time, the concept of organic fertilizer popped up again.

There is no doubt that guano phosphate rock belongs to this kind of natural organic fertilizer, which is why its value is not cheap.

The fertility that this natural fertilizer can provide is quite high, and it does not leave any chemical residues. It is enough to see that there is no vegetation growing on this piece of guano phosphate rock. Apart from the interference of a large number of birds, I am afraid there is no What kind of crops can withstand the concentrated fertility of these guano phosphate rocks? Otherwise, it would be a bit strange that the shores of Lake Victoria, which were originally densely populated with crops, would be so bare.

After thinking about this clearly, Wang Lu's expression gradually became excited, but he soon became confused.

Logically speaking, these guano phosphate deposits should be easily discovered. Didn’t the exploration teams organized by the local government discover them?

But soon Parker and Wang Lu answered the questions.

"Boss, although we have judged that the quality of the guano phosphate rock here is very high, in fact its reserves are not very large. After all, the coverage of these guano phosphate rocks is only about 500 meters away, so even if If all was mined, the value would be only hundreds of thousands of dollars..."

Parker didn't finish what he said, but Wang Lu knew the reason very well. Compared with the hundreds of millions of dollars he paid to purchase this land, the value of this guano phosphate mine is indeed nothing...

"And if these guano phosphate rocks are mined, there are actually many obstacles. The first one is that this place is too close to Lake Victoria, right on the lakeside. Once mined, it will inevitably pollute the water quality of the surrounding lakes. , then we will either control lake water pollution or strengthen mining methods, which will greatly increase costs."

Hearing what Parker said, Wang Lu's original excitement gradually calmed down a lot, and he was about to build a star-rated hotel on the shores of Lake Victoria. There was an open-pit mine nearby. In a sense, Mining guano phosphate rock is actually of the same nature as scooping out guano, which is a bit inconsistent.

If you put it this way, a piece of guano phosphate rock in front of you is like worthless.

It is tasteless to eat and a pity to throw away. No wonder the local government was so generous and left such a large area of ​​guano phosphate rock to itself.

At the same time, Wang Lu once again saw the laziness of the locals from a side perspective.

There was such a large area of ​​guano phosphate rock here. Wang Lu walked around but found no trace of mining.

If this were done in China, the motherfuckers would have been picked off by the Chinese who have left the farming gene in their blood.

Although the value and necessity of mining this guano phosphate mine are not too high at present, it is still necessary to explore the specific reserves and coverage area, so Wang Lu also plans to let professionals work on it. A comprehensive exploration operation was conducted on a guano phosphate mine.

At least you have to have an idea in mind. You can’t tell when the price of these guano phosphate rocks will skyrocket.

The ups and downs of emotions throughout the day made Wang Lu a little tired.

However, with such a harvest of guano phosphate rock, it is not empty-handed. Although it is tasteless, even the size of a fly is meat, let alone tasteless. This piece of guano phosphate rock is worth hundreds of thousands of dollars anyway. For ordinary people, that is a huge sum of money.

Now that he was here, Wang Lu also decided to inspect the location of the hotel, so after getting in the car, he returned to the place where he met the surveying and mapping personnel of the construction aid group.

Only then did Wang Lu have time to examine the area carefully.

It must be said that the hotel construction site chosen by the Construction Aid Group for itself is a unique land.

The entire plot is located on the lakeside, with land on both sides leading out of the lake, forming a U-shaped bay plot, which is an excellent viewing spot.

If a hotel is built in this place, there will undoubtedly be no problem with the view.

The natural conditions are already quite good. If it is designed and utilized by professional architectural firms later, it will definitely give Wang Lu a surprise.

At least even a layman like Wang Lu has imagined that planting landscape trees on both sides of the U-shaped bay can form an excellent private area and provide a guarantee for his hotel guests. I care a lot about privacy.

At that time, a batch of white sand will be collected and the entire core area of ​​the U-shaped bay directly in front of the hotel will be laid as a beach. Although it is a lakeside, is it possible to create a beach effect? ​​This kind of white sand is not valuable in the local area anyway. Who allows the local area to have a long coastline? You can easily get this thing by spending money.

Palm trees, coconut trees and other tree species can even be planted on the surrounding land. The local climate is also very suitable for the survival of these tropical tree species. I believe it will be of great help in creating a sense of atmosphere.

Wang Lu’s ideas can all be realized through communication with the design team.
