Xu Shiyan has to take classes and is also responsible for writing the book "New Technology for Ginseng Cultivation". Now, he is even busier.
Apart from going to class and eating every day, I spend most of my time in the library, or else I write hard in the dormitory.
Several people in the same dormitory are from neighboring counties. Although it is not as famous as Fusong for planting so many ginseng, it is still grown and everyone knows about it.
Therefore, everyone is also very interested in what Xu Shiyan wants to write, and they often get together to discuss it.
Later, I don’t know what happened, but even their mentor knew about it.
I also went to Xu Shiyan specifically, and I was particularly concerned about the writing process of this book. He said that when the manuscript came out, I would show it to the school first.
In this regard, Xu Shiyan did not object. One person can think about shortcomings, and two people can think about strengths. It should be a matter of brainstorming.
These professors at Agricultural University are all talented and knowledgeable, and being able to get their corrections and opinions will be of great benefit to both this book and Xu Shiyan.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Xu Shiyan proposed the idea of ginseng biocompound fertilizer and biotechnology foliar fertilizer.
"Teacher, this is my idea, which is to use composite microbial bacteria, such as 5406 strains, etc.
Coupled with compound amino acids, organic main ingredients, auxiliary ingredients, etc., and composted using biological fermentation technology, it should be better than the previous fertilizer for ginseng fields."
This is an idea that Xu Shiyan came up with after studying at Agricultural University, reading countless relevant books and checking various documents.
Previously, the cake fertilizer for ginseng invented by Xu Shiyan has obtained relevant technical appraisal.
A few days ago, there was a good news call from the ginseng farm, saying that the yield of the ginseng farm had a bumper harvest this year, which was more than 30% higher than last year's yield.
This year, the first ginseng field to be ginseng was in the form of base fertilizer plus fertilization, so the yield of the ginseng field was greatly increased.
The county secretary also made a special call to Xu Shiyan and said that the yield of ginseng fields everywhere this year was good, and the results of fertilizing the ginseng fields were gratifying.
The most outrageous thing is that Su Anying called and said that all the deer dung at the breeding farm had become meat and potatoes.
Many places come to place orders for deer dung, which can then be composted and fermented to be used as fertilizer for ginseng fields.
"Bean cake is okay, but deer dung is really too restrictive.
Moreover, everyone has different levels of fermentation technology, which actually affects the utilization rate of this fertilizer.
If a better formula can be prepared and mass-produced, I think it will be better than the current one.
Especially in terms of re-cropping ginseng soil, if it can resist soil hardening, enrich soil microbial flora, and supplement various nutrients needed for ginseng growth.
The effective use of ginseng land will definitely be helpful."
The so-called re-cropping of ginseng soil means that a crop of ginseng has been planted, and after a few years there has been no ginseng soil, and you want to reuse the planted ginseng, this is a re-cropping.
The growth of ginseng consumes serious fertility, which can be said to be predatory absorption of soil.
Therefore, the place where ginseng was planted will not be able to recover in ten or twenty years.
Moreover, many miscellaneous bacteria will be produced in the soil where ginseng has been planted. If the soil is planted again, many pathogenic bacteria will appear, causing the ginseng to rot.
This is also a big problem facing the development of the ginseng industry.
After all, forest resources are limited, and the land capable of growing ginseng will become less and less. Improving the utilization rate of ginseng soil is a big problem.
Xu Shiyan knew that with his current level, he could not achieve this level, so he took the opportunity to seek help from his college instructor.
The instructors at Agricultural University each have their own unique skills, maybe they can find a way.
"Well, what you said is indeed interesting.
Microbial technology is used to provide nutrients necessary for ginseng growth, restore soil fertility, and at the same time play a role in sterilization and disinfection.
It’s a bit difficult, but it can be studied as a topic.”
One of the instructors was very interested in the idea proposed by Xu Shiyan, and he decided to lead others to study it.
"By the way, tell me about the foliar fertilizer. I remember that there was a method before that used calcium superphosphate diluted with water and then sprayed.
What are your thoughts on biotechnology?"
Another instructor was interested in the foliar fertilizer mentioned by Xu Shiyan.
“It uses microbial fermentation and extraction technology to extract nucleotides, various amino acids, fulvic acid, trace elements, etc. to prepare foliar fertilizer.
I think this will be a development trend in the future, it is environmentally friendly and the resources are renewable."
"The growth period of ginseng rhizomes is from July to September, and at this time, the fertilizers applied in the early stage can no longer meet the growth needs of ginseng.
Spraying foliar fertilizer can supplement ginseng's nutritional deficiencies, promote stem and leaf growth, and resist disease and lodging.
Superphosphate is still too simple and cannot supplement all the nutrients needed for the growth of ginseng.
And superphosphate is a mineral, after all, a non-renewable resource.
There used to be a phosphate fertilizer factory in our county, but it stopped production due to lack of raw materials."
This last one is the most important reason.
It should be said that Xu Shiyan, who has two lifetimes of experience, has absolutely the most advanced and cutting-edge knowledge in the ginseng cultivation-related industries.
So the theories he put forward are really fascinating.
Even though the people opposite are all professors from the Agricultural University, in this aspect, no one can compare with Xu Shiyan.
"Well, I think this is more interesting. Come on, leave this matter to us.
You go back and write your book first, and later we will set up a special research group to study this issue."
They are all experts in related fields. As soon as they heard it, they knew that what Xu Shiyan said was a very advanced concept not only domestically but also internationally.
If the research is successful, it is likely to be used not only in the field of ginseng cultivation, but also in other crops.
This is a good thing and must be taken seriously.
In this way, Xu Shiyan, who proposed two new theories, continued to bury himself in a pile of manuscript paper, stay up late at night, and write furiously.
On the college side, we really just convene a meeting to discuss relevant topics, and after research and decision-making, we set up relevant research groups.
As the proposer of the project, Xu Shiyan has rich knowledge in the field of ginseng cultivation, so he was naturally selected to join the research team.
He did various experiments with many elites in his eyes.
Fortunately, Xu Shiyan wrote part of the book "New Ginseng Cultivation Technology" while he was at home, and it was basically finalized by mid-October.
So I mailed the manuscript back to a conference room for correction by Lin Qiyue.
Then it is submitted to Jiang Yunfeng, the deputy county magistrate and deputy director of the Ginseng Research Institute, who will do the final proofreading and then submit it to the publishing house for publication.
Of course, this is a long process. Xu Shiyan is only responsible for completing the first draft, and the rest has nothing to do with him.
Xu Shiyan didn't care about that anymore. The most important thing at the moment was this biological compound fertilizer.
For Xu Shiyan, this is a rare opportunity and the greatest achievement of his two years of study at Agricultural University, so Xu Shiyan is very attentive.
Xu Shiyan's serious and cautious attitude has also been praised by many mentors.
In fact, most of the students in the cadre training class are here to get a diploma to get qualifications. There are very few people like Xu Shiyan who can really specialize and study seriously.
