Chapter 38 The hidden danger of the great-grandfather chicken
It has been less than a month since Hong Qi graduated and came to the chicken farm, but his contact with the chicken farm started more than a year ago. Seeing that Hantun Chicken Farm, led by He Ping, gradually became a breeding base with a large scale that was comparable to any peers in China, how could he have no confidence in the chicken farm or He Ping?
What he knew more clearly was that if it continued to develop at the current rate, then the development of Hantun in the future would be limitless. As one of the earliest technicians to join Hantun, the benefits he could enjoy would definitely be far beyond the current level.
Hong Qi's thoughts were slowly presented in his mind for more than half a month after he came to Hantun. Not only did he have his own ideas, but he also had his daily communication with the members and chat with Professor Guo, a technical consultant of the chicken farm.
When I met Professor Guo for the first time, Hong Qi felt a little magical. A professor from Northeast Agricultural College ran to the production brigade of Hantun to work as a technical consultant for the team's pig farm. This also indirectly illustrates He Ping's efforts to develop the pig farm and the future development potential of the pig farm.
Therefore, he is full of confidence in the future development of Hantun’s breeding industry.
The construction of the first phase of the chicken farm has been completed for more than a month, and the hatching of the chickens has also been on track. There is a single-family building of more than 500 square meters in the southwest corner of the chicken farm. This is one of the most common places for teachers and students of the Agricultural College.
He Ping came in from outside, "How is it hatched these two days?"
"It's okay, it's normal." Xu Haishan was speaking. He is the main person in charge of the hatching work of the chicken farm.
"That's good."
The hatching of chicken farms cannot be done. Not only the newly built chicken coops need to be filled, but many laying hens have also passed the peak period of egg production. In the near future, the first phase of chicken farms will inevitably usher in a new update. If you want to fill the entire planned third phase of chicken farms, the hatching of chicken farms will last at least more than a year.
Nowadays, not counting the teachers and students of the Agricultural College, there are four members who help in the incubation room every day, which is incomparable to the past.
"Teacher Xu, how did you ask about what I asked you last time?"
The chicken farms now raise local laying hen varieties. Since 1979, the fourth generation has been hatched. The defects of local laying hens have gradually emerged. The egg production volume of laying hens bred by the chicken farm has declined slightly since the third generation compared with the previous two generations.
Thanks to Hong Qi, this kid has been doing this statistics since he came to the chicken farm with Xu Haishan to help. Until he graduated from school and came to work in the chicken farm, the first job he gave to He Ping was the laying hen yield curve he had counted over the past year.
From the chart, you can see at a glance that the laying hen production in Hantun chicken farm is showing a slow downward trend.
"The problem lies with the great-grandfather chickens in your chicken farm. This is a natural disadvantage and there is no good idea. I ask someone to inquire about it for you. This matter must be on Northeast Agricultural College."
"What's the meaning?"
Xu Haishan smiled, "You don't know yet? Northeast Agricultural College has just crossed a kind of laying hen in the past two years - Binbai 42. It is a two-series matching hybrid chicken bred by Northeast Agricultural College using imported materials. It is said that it is the best egg-laying high-leaning laying hen in the Binbai chicken series, which is more suitable for the cold climate in our Northeast region."
He Ping slapped his hands, "Is this a slight trait? You see, I knew I would have done this when I got in the pig last time."
Xu Haishan smiled and said, "It's not too late now. With Professor Guo, an old acquaintance, here, it's no problem for you to introduce new laying hens."
"That's right, hehe!"
"Then the construction of our chicken farm cannot be stopped. We cannot let local laying hens and binbai chickens be mixed."
"If farmers raise small-scale farming, there is no problem with mixed farming, but if you are breeding on a large scale, mixed farming will definitely not work."
"Oh, I'm really blamed on this matter. I would have known this matter earlier. It would have been a bit too long since then." He Ping said with some blaming self-report.
Originally, he planned to wait for a while before putting the construction of the second phase of the chicken farm on the agenda. Now it seems that the construction of the chicken farm cannot be stopped at all.
"What does it have to do with you? You don't understand these things. It's normal that you can't believe it. No one can blame this. After all, the technical strength of your chicken farm is limited." Xu Haishan explained.
"I have to thank you Teacher Xu when I talk about this. If you hadn't asked Hong Qi to do this statistics from the beginning, I'm afraid I'd still be stupid and I wouldn't know anything."
"I have been to your Hantun so many times and have been taken care of by you a lot. Isn't this what I should do?"
Two good words are not enough to represent He Ping's gratitude. He thought about it in his heart and would give rewards to Xu Haishan and Hong Qi who have made contributions to this matter.
If they continue to hatch the fourth generation of chickens without knowing it, it is likely that the future production of the chicken farm will decline, which will affect the efficiency of the farm.
Both chicken farms and pig farms are now in urgent need of technical talents, so He Ping not only needs to give this reward, but also needs to give it in front of several teachers and students from the Agricultural College who came to the chicken farm to take up the chicken farm.
Isn’t this a technical contribution? There is no more suitable reason to pay bonuses than this.
He Ping thought about this matter in his mind, but he didn't mention it on the surface. Now he should do a good job in introducing laying hens and wait for the bonus matter to find a suitable opportunity in a few days.
It may not be realistic to introduce the original breeder, and no matter how bad it is, you have to get a great-grandfather breeder. He Ping has learned a lesson this time and has gained a memory.
He asked Guo Wenxing to tell him about this, and wanted the old man to help him go to Northeast Agricultural College.
The old man agreed immediately. The Agricultural College developed that hybrid chicken species should also be promoted, which is beneficial to both buyers and sellers.
"But it is unlikely that you want the original breeder." Guo Wenxing said with some embarrassment.
"I want to get the best. I just said that, and I know it is not realistic. If you go, follow the original breeder first. If you really can't talk about it, I can accept it."
There is no loss when I try it, what if it is done, Guo Wenxing understands what He Ping means.
He Ping called Han Zhaojun again and asked him to go to Harbin with Guo Wenxing to run for this matter. "We all traveled the way last time. This time you went to assist Professor Guo in getting the chicken breeding in our chicken farm and just transport it back smoothly."
"I understand, Brother He Ping, don't worry."
It is better to introduce breeding chickens early than late. The next day, Guo Wenxing took Han Zhaojun to board the train to Harbin. The breeding chickens entered the farm one day earlier and saw benefits one day earlier.
