Wang Dagui found reading glasses and put them on, then read the contents on the paper.
Chicken feed formula:
Chick (1~60 days) formula:
1. Bran 50%, dried earthworm 30%, corn 9%, fish meal 9%, bone meal 2%.
Young chicken (61 to 120 days old) recipe:
1. Bran 55%, dried earthworm 32%, corn 5%, fish meal 5%, bone meal 2%, shellfish meal 1%.
Feed formula during laying period:
1. Bran 50%, dried earthworm 22%, corn 10%, fish meal 10%, bone meal 2%, shellfish meal 6%.
Wang Dagui looked at the formulas and found that they were all worthless things.
"This dried earthworm is a dried earthworm?"
Wang Lidong said:
"It's earthworms.
The earthworms must be cooked first, then all the internal organs must be removed, and then dried.”
Wang Dagui said in confusion:
"It's for chickens. It's not so fine. Just dry it in the sun."
Wang Lidong explained:
"It doesn't matter if you eat less and it's not cooked.
But if chickens are often fed, they must be cooked. Earthworms have many parasites.
You will easily get sick if you eat chickens."
When Wang Dagui heard that he was about to fall ill, he nodded.
"Xiaodong, how is the effect of your prescription?"
Wang Lidong asked:
"Uncle, how many days does it take for your chicken to grow from a young to five pounds in weight?"
Wang Dagui thought for a while and said:
“In the past few years, it was only five or six months.
There has been nothing to feed them in the past two years, so I just let them find food on their own every day, which takes about eight or nine months."
Wang Lidong said:
"If the chicken can eat this kind of feed regularly, it will take about three and a half months for the chick to grow to about five pounds."
When the uncle heard this, his eyes immediately lit up,
"Can he really grow up so fast?"
Wang Lidong said:
"The main reason is that food is in short supply now. Otherwise, there are better ways to do it."
The uncle wanted to ask what the recipe was.
But when I thought of the word "food" mentioned by Wang Lidong, I immediately stopped thinking.
"If it really has the effect you said, then I think this recipe is pretty good.
A better recipe is to forget it.
Even if there is no shortage of food in the future, no one will feed chickens with food.
But this can only be done in spring at least. After all, it’s hard to find ground dragons in this weather.”
Wang Lidong said:
"Then when spring comes, uncle, you and your two cousins will try it and see the effect."
Uncle Wang Dagui said to Wang Lidong:
"I will arrange this.
Did you come today just to talk about this?"
Wang Lidong took a sip of sugar water. The aunt put too much sugar in it, which made Wang Lidong feel a little bit cold.
“I have read a lot of books in recent years, so I have figured out some recipes.
The chicken feed just now is one of them.
I just thought that when spring comes, I would like to try out some other recipes here in Dawangzhuang."
Uncle Wang Dagui felt a little depressed after hearing this.
"If it's a feed recipe, don't take it out, it won't be used for the time being.
In this situation, not many people can raise two chickens.
No matter how good the prescription is, it’s useless.”
Wang Lidong directly told Wang Dagui what he was going to write about soil fertilizers, soil feeds, and soil pesticides.
Uncle Wang Dagui looked at his nephew in surprise.
I didn’t expect that at such a young age, I could come up with so many good things just by reading books.
I just developed the mushroom technology, and now I am starting to study these things again.
It was a shame to drop out of school and become a cook.
If he could have continued studying at that time, then the old Wang family would have definitely produced a college student.
But thinking about the situation at that time, ugh~
"Before spring, Xiaodong, come over if you want to test the recipe.
When the time comes, I will set aside half an acre of land for you and let your two eldest brothers help you try it out."
Wang Lidong reminded:
"Soil pesticides may be effective quickly, but soil fertilizers and soil feeds will take at least half a year to see results."
Wang Dagui smiled and said:
"Your uncle and I have been farming for so many years, so I still have some common sense.
You want to tell me that after using your fertilizer, the crops will see the effect immediately, but I don’t dare to let you try it.”
Wang Lidong breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that his purpose of coming today had been achieved.
I didn't expect my uncle to be so easy to talk to.
In fact, it was the big bag of mushrooms that Wang Lidong brought over that worked.
Let Wang Dagui believe that the things his nephew tinkered with are really useful.
Wang Dagui asked:
"Do you have any special recipe for killing cutworms?"
Wang Lidong thought about the recipes in his mind. There are really several kinds that specialize in killing this.
"It's true. Let's bring it with us next time."
When Wang Dagui heard this, he was happy and said:
“If this kind of recipe had been available a few years earlier, our brigade’s grain output could have been even higher.
If you experiment with half an acre of land and the results are good.
Our team will use your recipe next year."
Wang Lidong nodded and said:
"Okay, I'll come a week in advance.
Uncle, from what you say, the cutworm pests have been more severe in the past two years?"
Wang Dagui couldn't help but look ugly:
“It was very noisy.
I originally wanted to buy some pesticides, but they were always in short supply and the price was too expensive.
If we really have to do it all, the harvest produced in one year may not be enough to buy pesticides.
If your method works well, it will really help uncle a lot."
