The Age of Rebirth: Winning since the educated youth went to the countryside

Zhou Ziwen would certainly not refuse Researcher Chen's request.

He even wanted people to work for free!

If you want people to work willingly, you have to give them something.

Seeing that he was very interested in biological feed, Zhou Ziwen began to explain it to him.

"Researcher Chen, biological feed mainly uses microbial fermentation technology. First, we need to collect crop straws such as corn stalks, soybean stalks, rice straw, and wheat straw, dry them, and crush them into fine bran. Then add biological fermentation agents in a certain proportion, mix them evenly, and ferment them."

Researcher Chen nodded as he listened, his eyes sparkling with excitement: "This is a really clever method! But can piglets digest feed made from these things?"

Zhou Ziwen nodded with a smile and continued to explain: "Don't worry about this. Although these crop straws cannot be eaten directly by humans, the cellulose and hemicellulose they contain can be converted into sugars and other nutrients that are easier for pigs to digest and absorb through microbial fermentation."

"Moreover, some beneficial bacteria produced during the fermentation process can help improve the intestinal health of pigs and increase the digestibility and absorption rate of feed."

Researcher Chen listened more carefully and asked, "How is this biological fermentation agent made? What raw materials are needed?"

Zhou Ziwen patiently replied: "The preparation of biological fermentation agent is relatively simple, mainly composed of some beneficial microorganisms and their nutrient matrix."

"We can choose suitable microorganisms according to local resource conditions. For example, we can use some common yeasts and lactic acid bacteria. These microorganisms can multiply in large numbers under suitable conditions, produce rich enzyme systems, and promote the decomposition of cellulose in straw."

"As for the nutrient matrix, we can use some inexpensive and easily available raw materials, such as bran and rice bran. These raw materials can not only provide the required nutrients for microorganisms, but also increase the volume of the starter and reduce production costs," Zhou Ziwen added.

Researcher Chen was very satisfied with Zhou Ziwen's explanation. He said excitedly: "This method is really creative. It can not only effectively utilize agricultural waste, but also reduce breeding costs and improve breeding efficiency. Team leader Zhou, you are amazing."

At this moment, his admiration for Zhou Ziwen was like the endless torrent of a river.

He felt that this educated Zhou was far superior to him.

This discovery surprised him.

As far as he knew, Zhou Ziwen was just an educated youth who had gone to the countryside, but it was incredible that this educated youth was more knowledgeable than him as a researcher.

"Team Leader Zhou, your method is so valuable. I will study it carefully when I go back to see if I can promote this method in our college's breeding farms." Researcher Chen said excitedly.

As a researcher at the College of Agriculture and Animal Husbandry, he saw the value of biological feed at a glance.

Zhou Ziwen waved his hand modestly and said, "Researcher Chen, you are too kind. If this can be promoted in the college, it will also contribute to the development of agriculture."

The discussion continued around biological feed. Wu Dagang said with a smile: "If this biological feed can be promoted, it will really benefit the majority of farmers."

The team leader also nodded in agreement: "Yes, the cost of raising pigs in our village can be reduced, all thanks to the method that Ziwen came up with."

"Haha, this method is not something I came up with. I learned it from a book."

Zhou Ziwen smiled and shook his head.

The concept of biological feed began to take shape and develop in the middle of the twentieth century.

But in 1975, that year, the relevant technologies and applications were not popularized.

But in this era, some basic knowledge and technology of microbial fermentation already exists.

So although it is surprising that Zhou Ziwen can come up with the technology of biological feed, it is not surprising.

The topic changed and everyone began to discuss the details of breeding Landrace pigs.

Researcher Chen introduced in detail some aspects that require special attention in the process of Landrace pig breeding.

As we chatted, it gradually got darker.

Although everyone was still a little reluctant to leave, they thought about having to go to work tomorrow, and that Researcher Chen had just arrived in Dabazi Village and needed some adaptation time, so everyone got up and prepared to go home and rest.

Wu Dagang said to Researcher Chen: "Researcher Chen, you are tired today, go back and rest early."

Researcher Chen said gratefully: "Thank you Secretary Wu, I am sorry for causing you trouble."

Zhou Ziwen also said: "Researcher Chen, if you have any questions, you can come to us at any time. Don't hesitate."

Researcher Chen nodded, said goodbye to everyone, and walked towards the east of the village.

When Zhou Ziwen returned home, the two sisters and Xiao Yueyue were already asleep.

He walked into the room quietly, looking at their sleeping faces, his heart filled with tenderness.

After a quick wash, he returned to the bedroom, lay down on the kang and began to rest.

Nothing happened that night. Early the next morning, Zhou Ziwen opened the idle panel and took a look.

[Beast Taming Level 4] (8/4000)

【Construction LV1】(25/1000)

According to the panel, the animal taming skill has reached level four.

The fourth level of animal taming gave him a deeper understanding of the habits of animals.

It is not only helpful for breeding Landrace pigs, but can also achieve a good domestication effect on other animals.

Like the wild goat in the backyard, he can domesticate it further.

After this period of domestication, although the wild goat has been initially domesticated, its wildness has not been completely eliminated and it still shows some resistance behavior from time to time.

Zhou Ziwen decided to use his newly improved animal taming skills to further tame it.

There is also the construction skill. After this period of time, the construction skill has reached the entry level.

Although I have only just reached the entry level, I am already capable of building a biogas digester.

In fact, a biogas digester is not very difficult, you just need to know the construction process.

The most important thing is the material.

But they now have the support of the commune, so materials are not a problem.

In addition to animal taming and construction, planting skills will also be upgraded soon.

And Baguazhang is almost reaching the maximum level.

As there are more and more AFK positions, his AFK skills also increase, and his skills are upgraded from time to time.

Whenever his skills are upgraded, that is when Zhou Ziwen is happiest.

After sorting out the harvest, Zhou Ziwen went to the yard to stretch his body as usual, and then went back to the house to wash up.

After washing up, he walked into the kitchen and saw Chen Shiying already preparing breakfast.

"Ziwen, do you have any plans for today?" Chen Shiying asked while she was busy.

"Let's go to the pig farm first! The piglets have arrived, so we need to pay more attention to their growth during this period."

Zhou Ziwen replied with a smile.

Chen Shiying nodded. She knew what these Landrace pigs meant to the village and understood why Zhou Ziwen cared so much about them.

"Then go ahead. The pig farm is more important. I'll be at the mushroom cultivation base."

Chen Shiying said gently that she always supported Zhou Ziwen silently like this.
