Affirming Wei Feng's major contributions in academics and in the Houyi Project, it is obvious that the Academy of Sciences also knows the seriousness of the matter, and the Golden Crow Project must not be exposed.

After the Academy of Sciences came out to clarify, Wei Feng's turmoil gradually subsided.

However, one wave after another, the domestic response to agriculture was very timely, suppressing the outbreak of the food crisis.

Southeast Asia and Tianzhu are already in big trouble now. The early rice harvest in 2015 is doomed to fail, and a food shortage sweeping across Asia is spreading.

Chapter 141 Replanting and Greenhouses

3 month 22 day.

With the spread of Siamese rice blast all over the world, every rice-growing country has encountered an unprecedented food crisis.

The total grain output in the world is about 25 billion tons, and for the world's total population of nearly 80 billion, the per capita grain is about [-] kilograms.

This figure seems to be able to meet the needs of all mankind. In fact, due to unreasonable production and distribution, there are still 20 billion people in the world who are in a state of hunger to varying degrees.

For example, the Samba country in South America uses a large amount of grain to produce alcohol and gasoline, and Australia, Maple Leaf Country, and Lucia are big animal husbandry countries, and it is normal to feed livestock with grain.

In addition, there is also the waste of the United States and the Western Continent Alliance. Their waste of food is unimaginable for many Chinese people.

This time, the rice blast crisis is a catastrophic crisis for the traditional rice-growing countries in Asia.

After all, the world's total rice output is about 5 million tons, accounting for about 20% of the world's total grain output.

Moreover, the main production areas of rice are concentrated in Asia. Organization G this time can be said to be a precise strike, artificially creating a food crisis in Asia.

Affected by the rice blast crisis, international food prices have soared wildly, among which rice has risen to US$1973 per ton, and is heading towards the US$[-] mark.

Siam Bangkok.

At this time, Siam really wanted to cry without tears. Because it was the first to publish the paper on rice blast, countries around the world directly named it Siam rice blast.

For this kind of thing, Huang Mingzhe had expected it, so he prevented the Agricultural Research Institute from publishing the paper first, so as not to be stigmatized by people with ulterior motives.

What happened to Siam now, and the ugly face of other Southeast Asian countries demanding compensation from Siam, made the Agricultural Research Institute break out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, it did not publish the paper in a hurry, otherwise the scapegoat would fall from the sky.

Siam, who has been blamed, is now not only a problem of being blamed, but it is already obvious that a large area of ​​rice has been wiped out.

Suburbs of Bangkok.

Huck, a farmer who owns thousands of acres of rice fields, can only say that he is about to cry when he sees the browned rice.

The new fungicide has been replaced three times, but the effect is like a drop in the bucket.

"Naihake, now Nanyang, Tianzhu, and even Huaguo have been affected by the rice blast. It is estimated that this year's rice will not be able to grow." Another black, dry and thin middle-aged man said helplessly.

Huck's heart was bleeding.

Suddenly three off-road vehicles drove over in the distance, Huck and Heiganshou glanced at the logo on the vehicle, it was a vehicle from Mengdushan Company.

The off-road vehicle stopped on the side of the two of them, and the windows were lowered.

A local young man wearing sunglasses said to the two of them: "Naihao, we have rice with strong disease resistance. If you are interested, you can call our company. This is my business card."

Huck hesitated for a moment, but still took the green business card.

These farmers all know what is going on with the rice of Mondul Hill Company, but Siam is a country that prohibits the cultivation of genetically modified rice.

But now that Mengdushan Company dares to blatantly sell genetically modified rice, it seems that the official attitude of Siam may have softened, and these farmers can only wait and see.

The buggy leaves Huck's farm.

"Nahake, what do we do now?"

"Now we can only plant other things." Huck said helplessly.

The black, dry and skinny man scratched his head and asked, "But what can our paddy fields grow?"

Southeast Asia is located in a tropical rainforest climate, with high temperature and rain all year round. Although there are dry and wet seasons, the paddy fields are very low-lying and prone to water accumulation.

The stagnant water has no effect on rice, but it is a disaster for wheat, corn, and potatoes that cannot tolerate waterlogging.

Perhaps sweet potatoes can be considered, but large-scale planting of sweet potatoes, can only choose to make sweet potato flour, and people eat sweet potatoes for a long time, it will cause edema, yellow complexion, emaciation, and stunted growth.

Huck looked at the situation of the farm, and finally made up his mind and said: "Nahuge, let's change the farmland. The high-lying land should be planted with potatoes and corn, and the low-lying land should be planted with sweet potatoes!"

"It's the only way to do it now." Hu Ge nodded helplessly.

There are always more solutions than difficulties. Rice cannot be grown. Some farmers and farmers in Southeast Asia have begun to find ways to save themselves and switch to other food crops.

However, paddy fields are not suitable for other food crops, which is actually a big problem. In addition, the rainy season in Southeast Asia is coming, and the rainy season has a great impact on crops.

Once heavy rains strike, let alone potatoes and corn, even rice may be seriously affected.

Those farmers and farmers who have replanted are now even more anxious. Many people are praying to God and worshiping Buddha, hoping that there will be no floods in this year's rainy season, otherwise they may not be able to withstand the continuous blows.

……

Glass greenhouses in Lingnan, Qiongzhou, and Guangxi provinces have been rolled out on a large scale.

Among them, eastern Guangdong has benefited from the cheap electricity from the Lianhuashan Nuclear Power Plant, and these agricultural greenhouses have entered the production stage.

Qinglongtou Village in Shanmei District.

Hundreds of acres of glass greenhouses have been preliminarily completed, and the staff of Huanong Group are teaching agricultural workers to operate the greenhouse equipment.

Most of the agricultural workers in charge of the greenhouse are middle-aged, and there are a few young people.

Yang Ye, who just graduated from university, saw the development of his hometown, so he gave up the idea of ​​working in Pengcheng and decided to join a rural cooperative.

"I have taught you three times, and everyone should try the operation one by one." The technician of Huanong Group said, pointing to a ten-acre greenhouse.

Yang Ye, a college student, is naturally like a fish in water. He took notes and learned the relevant greenhouse operation procedures and precautions through the official website of Huanong Group.

Soon he was very proficient in operations, such as combined ultraviolet and ozone sterilization, drip irrigation for different crops, spraying pesticides and fertilizers, how to adjust indoor light intensity, humidity, temperature, and carbon dioxide concentration detection, etc.

Yang Ye, who is very quick to learn, was appointed by the director of the cooperative as the leader of the agricultural technology team, responsible for guiding the technical production of agricultural workers.

These greenhouses will be used as planting areas for vegetables and fruits, especially those types of leafy vegetables, which are planted three-dimensionally in the greenhouses.

For example, vegetables such as cabbage, cabbage, lettuce, Chinese cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, and spinach generally have about five layers of planting layers.

Cucumbers, loofahs, pumpkins, wax gourds, bitter gourds, gourd gourds, watermelons, cantaloupe, and cantaloupes that climb vines are generally planted in two to three layers.

By making full use of soilless cultivation and fluorescent light supplementation, indoor three-dimensional planting can be realized, and the limited space can be used to maximize the planting density.

Of course, various rural cooperatives in Lingnan have also obtained special planting lists.
