Chapter 470 Shields and accountants play by themselves
When it comes to raising dairy cows, Ju An can be said to have a dark eye. Although he has seen a dairy farm, it is industrialized farming, unlike his own farm which is free range most of the time. Fortunately, he has these two things.
An expert, Norman, an expert in animal husbandry, played his role to the fullest.
Thinking of this, Ju An asked Norman: "The milking room for this cow has not been built yet. Should we wait until spring to build it?".
Norman shook his head and said: "Since we have decided to raise dairy cows, the planning now needs to be more detailed. At least two more cowboy settlements will be added, and a milking workshop will also be built in each settlement."
After looking at it, Ju An continued to say to Ju An: "Don't worry. In fact, raising cows is not as complicated as you think. After the cows are trained and trained, when they feel that they are about to produce milk, they will automatically go to the milking workshop.
of".
Uh-huh! Ju An sighed and asked jokingly: "Will this cow automatically have a tube inserted into its body? When the time comes, after milking, remove the tube and continue to eat grass? It would be the easiest thing to do."
"You're not talking about milking cows, you're talking about milking people!" Wang Fan looked at Ju An and laughed. Leonard and Norman also smiled and shook their heads, but several of Norman's graduate students were there.
The person next to him laughed.
After smiling twice, Norman handed the things in his hand to the graduate student next to him and said to Ju An: "Come to our office and have a chat. By the way, I will also tell you about my plan for next year.
It makes you feel like $10 million in research funding every year is wasted."
"I don't understand what you're talking about. It's best if you don't give me any data. If you want to say it, wait until I'm about to sleep and come to my bedside to say it. It's like a lullaby." Ju An followed Nuo
Man walked outside together, laughing and joking with Professor Norman.
Wang Fan and Leonard followed behind them, chatting quietly.
Entering Norman's so-called office, it turned out that a desk was added to Leonard's room. The house now is no longer the simple house it was at the beginning. It is a regular house. After looking at the thickness of the walls, it is basically smaller than the
The second and fourth walls in China are larger and all made of wood.
Ju An sat down on a wooden sofa in the room. Don't get me wrong. The sofa was now covered with cotton cushions and was much softer. The heating in the room was also very sufficient. Ju An took off his coat and put it next to the armrest.
He said to Norman: "Tell me your plan, I'm all ears."
Norman pulled up a chair and sat across from Ju An. There was a square wooden coffee table about forty centimeters wide and one meter long in the middle: "I use gray cattle as breeding cattle and long-horned cows as breeding animals."
The cow gave birth to a batch of brown calves six months ago, which are much larger than the calves born at the same time in the current pasture. Judging from the development of the skeleton, the final weight will be about 1,200 kilograms."
.
"How's the meat quality?" Ju'an doesn't care how much meat there is, the quality of the meat is the king. If the meat quality is average, even if it is three to four hundred kilograms more, what's the point? The overall profit is still not as good as the white cattle from the pasture.
Norman said to Ju An: "The meat quality is average. We slaughtered two bulls and tested them. There was a lot of lean meat, but there was no random pattern like that of white cattle. It was just an ordinary fat texture, and the texture was very
"It's small, but it has strong muscles, and the proportion of sperm-producing meat is very high."
"There's no twig pattern?" Ju An touched his chin and thought for a moment. It's impossible. Brother, the gray cows mated with the black cows in the pasture. The white cows that were born have twig patterns, although they are thicker than the gray cows.
Some, but the obvious random branch patterns can be seen at a glance. Of course, Ju An likes to call them random branch patterns. The official names are tl gray cow ice pattern, and Xishuihe white cow thick ice pattern.
Norman also shook his head and explained: "I don't know why gray cattle are still like that. But when they are bred, they no longer have the same heredity as before. The ice pattern cannot be inherited. A lot of the products bred with white cattle are meat."
Most of the Hu Hu's are fat and have no commercial value at all. I'm also surprised. It's like the powerful genetics of gray cows are slowly disappearing. Only the same gray cows can retain the genetics of ice streaks.
Same!".
After hearing what Norman said, Ju An thought for a moment. Could it be that when the gray cattle first came out, they had too strong aura of space, but now that they have been passed down for several generations, the genetics have become stable in the gray cattle population? He thought of this
Ju An became a little worried about the quality of gray cattle: "So, has the quality of gray beef in the pasture declined?" Don't ask your friends to send a batch of cattle into the space every few years. That would be a bit too bold.
, no matter what, you can't escape the eyes of these shields.
"You don't have to worry about this! The meat quality of gray cattle is still very good. The inheritance I am talking about is between cattle breeds. The inheritance between gray cattle is very stable, and the reproduction between white cattle is also very stable. The calves they give birth to are completely
It has inherited the excellent genes of the previous generation of cattle," Norman explained to Ju An.
After hearing this, Ju An said: "That's good!". It seems that the genes of gray cattle and white cattle are fixed in their own cattle breeds. This cross-breeding will not work, and it is a good thing.
Are the cattle thieves stealing less now? Why not steal more? This idea is too simple, too simple. If you can really steal dozens of cows from the pasture, the US FBI and customs will really be free.
Ah. Thinking of this, Ju'an felt a little happy again.
Norman continued: "My task next year is to continue to cultivate new breeds of cattle. In addition, this new brown breed of cattle must also be bred, and we will check the meat quality when it is slaughtered."
"It's up to you." Then he turned to Leonard and said, "The proliferation of fern in the pasture here should be allowed to go. After a while, I plan to buy another pasture to raise goats and other animals."
Some meat livestock will have to trouble Lena when the time comes.
"Go to the new pasture and continue cultivating ferns." The mutton doesn't matter, but the donkey meat is really indispensable. In addition to eating it at home, we also need to develop towards the world's largest market. We can't let those who add things indiscriminately.
The profiteers make money without conscience.
"Norman! That brown cow of yours produces a lot of meat?" Wang Fan said to Norman.
Norman nodded after listening: "The fat content is very small, grilled steaks are not the best, and the meat quality is average. Of course, the quality of beef raised in the pasture of Xishuihe is higher, but if it is raised on ordinary pasture, it should be
The meat quality is slightly better than ordinary free-range beef, but the quality is limited."
Wang Fan happily said to Ju An: "Anzi! This is awesome~~!".
"It's not bad!" Ju An glanced at Wang Fan and said, "Haven't you heard? It's not suitable for grilling steaks. My brothers are raising white cattle and gray cattle in the pastures now. Where can I have the time to raise such cattle!".
"I wonder why you don't understand?" Wang Fan pointed at Ju An with his hand and said, "Then what do you think we should do when we eat beef for Chinese food?".
"Cook it into slices and sprinkle with seasonings. Either stew it or stir-fry the beef fillet." Ju An said carefully as he watched Wang Fan touch his head.
Wang Fan nodded and said: "That's it, we don't eat steak in China, and we don't pay attention to locking in moisture. Many of us cook it with soup, or we eat it dry and cut it, so why do we need so many fat strips?
, just suitable for the domestic market.”
After listening to Wang Fan's inspiration, Ju An understood. That's right! My brother is always looking at the American market. Why did he forget about the domestic market? It's all stocked. When the time comes, just package it and it will be considered for the domestic people.
Contributed to table safety.
Thinking of this, he patted Wang Fan on the shoulder and said: "Although you just eat and do nothing all day long, you are still somewhat useful at this critical moment!".
Wang Fan turned his back on Ju An, extended his middle finger to Ju An, and then turned to look out the window without looking back.
Ju An said to Norman: "Then we need to spend more time cultivating this breed of cattle. When do you expect it can be bred on a large scale?".
Norman thought for a moment: "If we do large-scale breeding, we will have to wait three or four years. After all, we need to go through at least one or two generations of inspection to see if the genes of the cattle breed are stable. If we plan to do large-scale breeding,
So at least half of the male gray cattle cannot be slaughtered this year and will be kept for breeding."
"This is no problem!" Ju An said with a wave of his hand. It is estimated that if the five or six hundred bull gray cattle are not sold next year, they will not be sold. The income will not be much less. The extra money is equivalent to the sales of the entire ranch.
It's just a drop in the bucket, and it's really not a big deal.
Leonard smiled and said: "Norman and I have already arranged our tasks for next year. When the other professors come over, we will ask them to make a plan for you. You can also take a look. Since we are planning to raise dairy cows and produce milk products,
This time we have added another dairy expert.”
"I'd better not read this thing." Ju An thought for a moment and decided not to take over this hot potato. I came to the United States to enjoy the blessings, and I didn't come to watch you professors and experts do scientific research. After thinking about it,
The Midea University mechanism simply said to the two people: "Why don't you just set up an expert joint meeting mechanism. I don't care how the funds are allocated then. In the end, I only need to look at the results."
We can't let the Shields get paid for nothing. The two professors Leonard and Norman know everything about it. They are both satisfied with their jobs. If there is someone who takes money and does nothing, they won't be polite and don't care.
No matter what, I have to see a benefit, even if it is a long-term benefit. If there is nothing in a few years, I will not be taken advantage of in vain.
Norman agreed with this idea. He glanced at old Leonard, who also had a smile on his face. Norman said to Ju An: "This idea is not bad. Now our research institute has three directions.
, livestock breeds, dairy products, plant research, there is a joint meeting where everyone can better coordinate and discuss.”
"As for the director of this research institute, you can decide among yourselves. I don't care, but the accountant will have a seat in the joint meeting." Ju An was ready to let go after just one person was inserted. He didn't have his own accounting firm to join in to supervise.
, which is not good for anyone. With this, everyone can rest assured that the accounts are clear at a glance.
