Wang Shuqin once conducted some investigations on the soil structure of northern Xinjiang. Although the land is large and abundant, relatively speaking, the area that can be truly cultivated is not large, and most of them belong to saline-alkali land and sandy soil.
Although these soils can be improved, the price to be paid is undoubtedly huge.
Thinking about how much money the king paid to lead the soldiers to achieve today's achievements when he entered the Xinjiang region.
Now, the arable area has not only not increased, but has decreased. Part of it is due to severe desertification, and the other part is the loss of people. People have left. How could there be people who still farm and grazing?
Of course, the abandoned land cannot be good land, otherwise, according to the Chinese tradition, how could the good land be abandoned?
But this is not absolute. There is also such a trend in the mainland. Many people from remote mountainous areas and young people have gradually gone to work in coastal cities in the south, with only the elderly and children left at home.
The main reason is that the high yield of food has caused prices to drop rapidly, and farming cannot meet the needs of family life. Young people have to work to make ends meet.
After going out for a long time, the prosperous world outside made them no longer have the courage to face the poverty in their hometown. So they changed from the initial way to making money out of going out to settle down.
In later generations, there were many cases where there were only a few elderly people in a village. Many very well-built houses were no longer occupied.
These houses are made by young people outside and come back to build the family and ancestors.
It was only after they built it up that they found that they could no longer return to their hometown. It was not that someone refused to let them come back, but that they could not adapt to the way their ancestors depended on for survival.
They can endure hardships, but they don’t want the next generation to live such a life. So they can only escape from the mountain village and come to big cities.
Although they may be discriminated against and subject to some unfair treatment in big cities, so what? At least they will be much better than in their hometown.
Wang Shuqin saw these things, but the northern border was not elsewhere, and the corps were not ordinary people. She would not let these things happen!
The reason why her superiors transferred her to take charge of production was because she saw her great contributions to the Military Reclamation City.
Although that was the result of the efforts of two generations, many things are inseparable from the leader's helm.
Now that Wu Tianming is in the second line, he also put all his hopes on this young cadre who grew up in the Military Reclamation City, hoping that she can change the current difficulties faced by the entire Corps.
Wang Shuqin is a person who doesn’t talk much. After taking office, she first dived into the pile of information and began to understand the specific situation of each division and the regiment.
Then she started to inspect the following according to the situation she had mastered. Each of her inspections recorded a large number of diaries, compared what she actually learned with what was summarized above, and tried to make the situation detailed as much as possible.
This round took about a year, which made some people complain.
After all, Wang Shuqin is too young. Although she has outstanding achievements in the Military Reclamation City, this does not mean her achievements here.
These people naturally had already made preparations, wanting to make some small moves at some appropriate time and want to see Wang Shuqin's jokes.
As a result, I didn't expect that since this girl came, she has not expressed any opinions on anything and has not taken any action except attending the meeting.
This made those people excited. Is this obviously a corpse position? Is the ball capable of not having the ability, and I will be gilded because I have a backstage. Such a person should be won, and should not be left in this position. The most suitable position is the Women's Federation!
As there is too much such discussion, an undercurrent will be formed. Although it does not pose any substantial threat to Wang Shuqin, many people who do not know the truth are also entangled.
It is a habit to follow the crowd, just like the cyber violence in later generations. Most people don’t even know who the person being criticized is, so they just curse themselves just to claim to be a righteous person!
Faced with all this, Wang Shuqin did not have any emotional fluctuations, as if others were not talking about her.
Finally, Ye Yuze's information was sent. This is a relatively effective method for soil improvement from all over the world that he collected.
Although Ye Yuze is lazy, he is a very rigorous person. The information he collected has been verified by many places and has produced results.
Wang Shuqin was as if she had gained a treasure. After careful selection, she decided to choose a more typical place for the pilot. That is the Eighth Regiment of the Fifth Division.
The most accurate description of this place is half a bowl of yellow sand and half a bowl of wind, half a commoner and half a soldier."
Compared with the single Han soldiers in other regiments, the 88th Regiment is a national-level border poverty regiment composed of nine ethnic groups including Han, Mongolia, Ha, Hui, and Wei.
The farm is surrounded by mountains on three sides, high in the west and low in the east, with a longitudinal slope of 16‰ in the north and south. The average altitude of the jurisdiction of the group reaches 1,420 meters. It has a mesothermal inland desert grassland climate.
The annual average temperature is 3.6℃, ​​the annual temperature is 34.9℃, the accumulated temperature is 2050℃ per year with an annual rate of ≥10℃, and the frost-free period is 120 days. The soil is mostly gravel or sandy soil, with thin soil layer and low soil fertility.
The climate is harsh, with frequent natural disasters such as low temperatures, droughts, strong winds, hail, floods, etc., especially hail, strong winds and droughts are harmful to the farm. The total area of ​​the farm is 327 square kilometers, of which the cultivated land area is 4,110 hectares.
The key is that most of the so-called 4110 hectares of arable area are gravel or sandy soil, which is the so-called Gobi Desert, which is just slightly better than those Gobi Deserts that don’t have anything.
Regarding such soil and climate, the information sent by Ye Yuze gives the most suitable crop for planting, that is, grapes.
The variety of this grape is a bit special, that is, it is called ice grape. The special thing about it is that it has to wait until it snows and freezes.
This kind of glucose is much higher than other grape varieties. Some Nordic countries are grown, and the wine made from this grape is sold at a high price, but the yield is not high.
The soil and climate of the Eighth Tuan are suitable for planting this kind of grape, so Wang Shuqin decided to go down in person and must cultivate the variety, because once it is successful, the meaning of the representative is not only as simple as a new variety, but the situation of a teacher may change because of this thing.
