Chapter nine hundred and eighty seventh new potato harvest season
It's normal for Yang Mingzhi to be a little confused. Liguschkov was the most efficient in doing things this time. Doesn't he know how to be restrained?
There must be a rocket launcher experiment, but who would have thought that the experiment day would be May 10th?! That person has already boasted about it, so he can only bite the bullet and go ahead.
Yang Mingzhi didn't think about the rocket launcher experiment for the time being, and his eyes returned to Salinchkin standing on the stage.
At this moment, Salinchkin was shocked by the rocket launcher. He was very educated and kept calm and announced important things steadily: "Comrades! Let's put the weapons aside for now, and let's focus on the land again! After three
After months of waiting, now, with the unanimous consent of the Novgomel Municipal Committee, potatoes can be dug on a large scale!"
The people in the audience fell into a small commotion.
Everyone is looking forward to a bumper harvest of potatoes. In fact, had it not been for the obstruction of Salinchkin standing on the stage, we would have planned to organize potato digging in April. At that time, the weather was still very cold in February.
The lower roots struggled to survive. When the temperature gradually increased, the potato seedlings grew vigorously.
By April, people got bad results after experimental excavations, that is, the size of the potatoes was too small. In fact, the potatoes were already edible. Salinchkin, who regarded himself as an agricultural expert, denied it at the time.
, that is, the potatoes must wait another month.
From mid-April to mid-May, too many major events have happened in just one month.
The fertilizer plant was built and put into operation. A large amount of ammonia water was not purified. The filled turbid liquid was further diluted and then dumped into the farmland. Villagers poured the nitrogen fertilizer into the farmland, which was extremely lacking in the soil. In the final stage of production, the potato roots expanded rapidly. There is one thing Yang Mingzhi did not do.
I realized that the black substance dissolved in the ammonia water was not an impurity. Peat, used as a raw material for fertilizers, contains a large amount of humus. Incomplete combustion causes a large amount of impurities to be mixed into the ammonia water, including plant ash, potassium nitrate, and potassium fertilizer contributes to the expansion of potatoes.
The so-called guerrilla republic is currently just another name for Novgomel. This collection of three collective farms and military camps has a large amount of farmland reclaimed around it!
“Originally, the total farmland around Novgomel totaled more than 700 acres. After subsequent development and large-scale production movements, our total area of various farmland has exceeded 1,500 hectares. Our total farmland area has exceeded 1,500 hectares.
An increase of one hundred and thirty times. Since a large amount of newly reclaimed land is reclaimed in stages, when it is registered as farmland, the production groups of each village immediately invest in potato sowing. Therefore, the characteristics of our current farmland are the height of crop growth.
Not the same!
The large-scale potato excavation decided upon by the Municipal Party Committee will mainly target farmland planted earlier, totaling one hundred hectares..."
Yang Mingzhi vaguely remembered that last year, the three collective farms relied on the potatoes produced on these lands to help the soldiers and civilians survive the cold winter.
At that time, there were not many soldiers and civilians, just over 10,000 people. The farmland at that time had poor soil fertility, and the total amount of potatoes produced was limited. Yang Mingzhi estimated that since the use of chemical fertilizers, the fertility of the land has skyrocketed, and there should be a bumper harvest of potatoes.
!Maybe one dessiatine or two tons?!
Sarinchkin continued to speak based on a document. He basically introduced the location of the farmland that needed large-scale excavation. This was mainly to the three collective farm village chiefs sitting here to urge them not to dig wrong.
place.
He said above, and the people in the audience murmured for a while. Yang Mingzhi put his arms on his thighs and sat quietly, but his ears were listening.
The most talked-about topic among others is the discussion about potato yield. Some people say that it is at least one ton per acre, while others half-jokingly say that it is five tons per acre.
Five tons per dessiatm is exactly the same as launching a satellite. Yang Mingzhi deduced from last year that there must be forty tons of potatoes in one hectare. The harvest of one hundred hectares should be at least 4,000 tons.
What kind of concept is this?
Yang Mingzhi estimated that if the starch content of local farmland is the lowest value of 10%, an adult man would need to eat five kilograms a day to fully meet the body's consumption. Women's body consumption is lower, and they must eat three kilograms.
This is a simple arithmetic. Yang Mingzhi opened his notebook and started writing with the pen in his right hand.
Yevlov beside him was a little curious. He glanced sideways and found that his old friend was taking Salinchkin's notes there. He was obviously doing some math problems.
Through calculations, Yang Mingzhi came to the general conclusion that assuming that the entire guerrilla republic's military and civilians calculated food consumption according to the energy demand standards of "adult men". Then, 60,000 people would eat 300,000 kilograms of potatoes a day, that is,
Three hundred tons.
The subsequent large-scale excavation is conservatively estimated to yield 4,000 tons. If the soldiers and civilians only eat potatoes, the food supply can satisfy all personnel for only two weeks.
This calculation is very imprecise. Yang Mingzhi knows that the output of one hectare must exceed forty tons due to the presence of chemical fertilizers, and the two-week supply is also a conservative estimate. Furthermore, it is impossible to count on the current "Supreme Soviet of the Guerrilla Republic"
Will agree to give ordinary people five kilograms of food a day!
Yang Mingzhi closed his pen and couldn't help but sigh.
There was some chaos in the audience, and Salinchkin stamped his feet to stabilize order.
He knew that what he read out had aroused the attention of everyone present. After the atmosphere stabilized, he explained such a matter loudly.
"Comrades! According to the statistical report of digging potatoes for self-use in the canteen of the Blacksmith Village, two acres of land can produce up to 1,300 kilograms of potatoes!"
As soon as he said this, Yang Mingzhi just closed the pen cap and fell to the ground.
What is this? A dessiatine is one hundredth of a hectare. The data given by Salinchkin can be calculated verbally to calculate the yield per hectare. What kind of number is this? Could it be that the yield per hectare is sixty-five tons?
Salinchkin glanced at Yang Mingzhi, whose expression was obviously shocked. He continued: "Comrades, this is the data we collected. This data has been tested by me personally and has not been mixed with any water. The private field of the canteen is on the 1st.
Once we have enjoyed chemical fertilizers, in terms of current production, chemical fertilizers have played a key role, and we cannot ignore the role of human and animal excrement!
In short, we use this data as a reference, and after analysis by the municipal party committee, during the subsequent excavation, our final output is estimated to be between 5,000 tons and 7,000 tons! Please note that this is our output from one hundred hectares,
After this grain harvest, farmland in other areas will be harvested one after another according to the order of sowing. Finally, after all farmland completes a round of harvest, we may be able to plant 200,000 tons of potatoes before winter this year!"
The more Salinchkin talked, the more excited he became. He simply raised his right fist and shouted: "Comrades! The biggest obstacle that restricts our survival is about to be completely conquered by us! Let us celebrate the food harvest, Ula!"
High emotions spread throughout the venue. Compared with the population pressure of 200,000 tons of food and the population pressure of 60,000 people, an average person gets three tons of food?! What does this mean? In peacetime, villagers cannot enjoy such a large amount of food rations.
There are too many holes in Salinchkin's data, and his calculations are full of variables, and the final output is still an estimate. Yang Mingzhi knows that the so-called 200,000 tons of grain is not a satellite, and the final result may be higher than this number because of land reclamation.
Never stopped.
The cheerful atmosphere lasted for several minutes, until Salinchkin danced and shouted passionately into the powered microphone, and everyone's eyes returned to him.
"Comrades! It seems that everyone is very happy! I am very happy too!
Now I announce that the large-scale potato digging operation will officially begin in the early morning of May 9th! Representatives of all collective farms should be prepared, and representatives of the Communist Youth League should immediately organize league members and young pioneers to participate in voluntary labor.
This is the arrangement for the potato matter for the time being. If you have any questions or opinions about my arrangement, please stand up and ask."
