At the end of November, the temperature in Romania has dropped to more than ten degrees below zero, and now people have put on thick winter clothes. However, the news that the Crown Princess is pregnant came from the palace, which made people excited, and everyone was whispering about this topic.
.
"Andina, do you think the Crown Princess will give birth to a boy or a girl?"
A woman shopping for groceries on the street was talking to her friends about the Crown Princess's pregnancy.
"I think it's best to be a boy, so as to ensure the continuity of the Romanian royal family."
The woman named Andina expressed her expectations. In fact, everyone in Romania now hopes that Crown Princess Sophie Marie will bring a new male member to the Hohenzollern family in Romania this time.
In the past ten years, Romania's economy has been getting better and better, and people's incomes have also increased a lot. Everyone knows who is responsible for this. Everyone is also worried about the lack of royal family members, so two years ago the Crown Prince's wedding
Since then, people have been expecting the Austro-Hungarian princess to give birth to a new member of the Romanian royal family. Now that the news of the Crown Princess finally being pregnant has caused such a reaction from the Romanian people.
When Romania was agitated by the news that the Crown Princess was pregnant, Princess Sophie Marie, who was in the spotlight, was walking around the room accompanied by Edel. Now that Sophie Marie is pregnant, in order to prevent accidents
, the royal family directly hired Dr. Maktina, the most famous obstetrician and gynecologist in Romania, to sit in the palace. It also hired several experienced nurses as a medical team to take care of Sophie Marie.
"Edel, aren't you going to take care of things today?"
Sophie Marie looked at her husband who was accompanying her and said sweetly with a smile.
"There hasn't been much going on lately. Besides, Prime Minister Bretianu is handling government affairs, and the army is being handled by Chief of General Staff General Priest. I can take a break and relax myself," Eder said, finally looking at his wife Sophie Marie.
They talked about love. "The most important thing is to spend time with you."
"Ta~ta~ta"
While Edel was talking to his wife, there was a knock on the door. Edel was a little uncomfortable with the sound that was disturbing him and his wife, but he still politely shouted, "What's the matter?"
A woman's voice sounded outside. "Your Highness the Crown Prince, we are here to check up on the Crown Princess."
"come in."
Hearing that they were examining Sophie Marie, Edel could only let them in. After all, it was related to his wife and the fetus in her belly.
As the Crown Prince finished speaking, Dr. Maktina walked in wearing a white coat and several nurses from the medical team.
"Your Highness, we are just doing a routine check-up to ensure the development of the Crown Princess and her fetus. It will be completed soon."
Edel also understood Dr. Maktina's explanation very well. This is not the era of the 21st century where medical technology is very developed. The current medical technology is still relatively backward, so for the pregnant Sophie Marie, this is the best
guard.
"Your Highness the Crown Princess, please let me listen to your heartbeat."
Dr. Maktina spoke to Sophie Marie while holding the hearing aid she carried with her.
"The Crown Princess has no problems and is very healthy. I believe the fetus will also develop well."
After Dr. Maktina quickly completed the examination, she discussed the examination results with the Edels.
Both Edel and Sophie Marie were very satisfied with the result. Doctor Maktina left after informing them of the result, leaving the two of them to continue their sweet talk. Unfortunately, the happy time was always short, and Edel was accompanying Su
Three days later, Feimali started to deal with the accumulated things again.
"Your Highness, these are the statistics of domestic grain production this year."
A guard placed the data that had just been counted in front of the crown prince. Edel put down the latest demographic report in his hand and began to look at the food statistics table that the guard had brought over.
In the population report he put down, Romania now has a population of 8.68 million. After deducting the 310,000 new people living in the newly captured Bulgarian territory, the actual population growth increased by about 600,000 compared with 1910. In three years, the population increased by about 600,000.
Romania’s average annual birth rate of 4.3% cannot be reached. After deducting the average annual mortality rate of 2.1%, Romania’s domestic population can only achieve a natural growth rate of 2.2%.
Fortunately, Romania can become a net importer of population by virtue of its national income which is much higher in the region. Most of the new Romanian citizens come from Lansylvania and Bessarabia. Combined with this,
The Romanians, who make up the majority in the area, can understand what Romania is doing now.
Edel picked up the grain statistics table and started to read it. In the most vivid position of the document, Edel saw that Romania's total grain output reached a record high this year, with a total output of 10.316 million tons. Among them, the largest increase was
Wheat and corn, respectively, are 3.767 million tons and 3.631 million tons. The ability to achieve such high yields has a lot to do with the large-scale use of fertilizers in Romania.
You must know that before 1905, when Romania had not started industrialization, its fertilizer use rate per hectare of cultivated land was 0.05KG. You must know that the use of fertilizers per hectare in Britain and Germany at the same time was 16.7kg and 18.7kg respectively.
Romania basically does not use chemical fertilizers. According to management, excessive use of chemical fertilizers can easily cause the land to harden. However, now European countries are using chemical fertilizers on a large scale to increase their food production to meet the growing population of each country. Now Romania’s food production is increasing day by day.
The total yield is also closely related to its extensive use of chemical fertilizers and the increase in cultivated area.
There is a good explanation in this statistical table, in which Romania uses an average of 7.46kg of chemical fertilizers per hectare of cultivated land. The domestic cultivated land area in Romania now reaches 6.711 million hectares, an increase of 10% from three years ago. This is also
Romania began to use a large amount of mechanical farming. However, the area of domestic farming still accounts for the majority.
Firstly, the large landowners in Romania have not completely changed their thinking and still adopt the method of subcontracting farming to farmers. However, most farmers who rent land do not have the financial resources to buy tractors, and the landowners each purchase a small amount of tractors.
Tractors are used on a small amount of land that is not subleased, and cannot produce maximum benefits on a scale.
Secondly, the current price of producing tractors is not very affordable, and many landowners cannot spend so much money to replace machinery. In addition, the production capacity of machinery factories cannot keep up with demand, so Romania still relies on intensive farming to occupy the majority.
However, a small gap has been opened in Romania's traditional farming methods and rental relationships. Eder has reason to believe that during World War I, with its strong absorptive capacity of industry, it forced the country's large landowners to change their current traditional models and
