    Accompanied by the first row of the reconnaissance company, Li Hui went straight to Nanniwan on the eight-ton king.

    Nanniwan is located more than 40 kilometers south of Yan'an. It is the birthplace of the Fenchuan River, with an area of ??about 365 square kilometers. Like other areas on the Loess Plateau, Nanniwan is also a typical hilly and gully landform, but because of the rich water system.  , most of it is covered by forest and grass, and the soil is also a relatively rare paddy soil in the Loess Plateau.

    However, because no one lives here all year round, such a good soil is cheap for weeds and thorns.  During the climax of the second counter-offensive, hundreds of thousands of national troops surrounded the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia border area. Under such a tight blockade, the materials in the border area became increasingly scarce.  They don't even have shoes and socks, and often in cave dwellings where more than a dozen people live, only two or three quilts can be seen.

    Under such circumstances, the chairman launched a large-scale production campaign in Yan'an. In the winter of 1940, the Nanniwan area with fertile soil was discovered. After Mr. Zhu's personal investigation and investigation, he finally decided to position it as the first place in Yan'an area.  A settlement.

    In the spring of 1941, Wang Huzi¡¯s 359th Brigade was ordered to enter Nanniwan. They overcame thorns and thorns, ate and slept in the open. After nearly a year of land reclamation, the officers and soldiers finally used their hands and sweat to turn the deserted Nanniwan into a "Pingchuan Rice Scent".  , Fat ducks are all over the pond. There are crops everywhere, and cattle and sheep everywhere.¡± Northern Shaanxi and Jiangnan.

    As this wave of large-scale production became stronger and stronger, not only soldiers and ordinary people, but also a large number of progressive youths were organized to join the army of land reclamation, more and more wasteland was developed, even  Some hills full of rocks were not spared, slightly larger areas were reclaimed farmland, and those fragmented small areas were also planted with sweet potatoes or potatoes, anyway, a piece of cultivated land was never spared.  Land, collect as much grain as possible to reduce the burden on the base areas.

    So when Li Hui arrived here, all he saw were crops that could not be seen at a glance, such as rice, wheat, corn, sorghum, potatoes, sweet potatoes, vegetables, melons and fruits, cotton all kinds of crops, except for these  , Those places that are really not suitable for growing crops have also been planted with pastures, where cattle, sheep, donkeys and other livestock eat leisurely and contentedly, it is really an idyllic scenery!

    As soon as he heard that Li Hui was coming, the captain of the Nanniwan production team came out with a large group of people. After introducing each other, they took Li Hui to stroll around the granary in northern Shaanxi.

    Li Hui, who had no previous farming experience and could be said to be indistinguishable from the five grains, looked around and took a closer look, showing a very curious look about everything.

    Suddenly, he saw a large piece of weed-like things planted on the dry land in the distance, and asked curiously: "What is that, why are there so many plants!"

    The production team leader with a simple and honest face quickly introduced: ¡®That¡¯s Cao Guzi!  "

    ?  Li Hui stared and asked, "Grass millet? Why have I never heard of this kind of thing? Can I eat it?"

    The production team leader smiled and replied: "Of course, this thing is our traditional crop. It is extremely drought-resistant and cold-resistant, and its growth ability is also strong. As long as it is planted, it can grow by itself without any management. When it is mature, not only its  The millet can be eaten, and the stems and leaves can also be used as fodder for livestock. Herdsmen in the entire Gansu-Shaanxi area will dry the stems and leaves of grass millet during the autumn harvest, and use them as fodder for livestock during the winter."

    As soon as he heard that this thing can be eaten by both humans and animals, Li Hui immediately became interested: 'Then is the output of this thing large?  "

    The production team leader shook his head: "It's not big, and you can harvest a few buckets per mu of land at most, that is, tens of catties. But this thing is good at feeding, and you don't choose the land. Basically, it can guarantee the harvest in drought and flood."

    When Li Hui heard this, his eyes widened. He could only harvest tens of catties per mu of land. This yield is too low. If this is left to future generations, he might not be able to get back the money for the seeds.

    Although Li Hui doesn't like it, the local people regard it as a treasure. In the Loess Plateau, areas with fertile land like Nanniwan are only rare after all. Most of the land is very barren, let alone rice.  For fine crops like wheat, even corn yields are pitifully low. Therefore, grass millet, a crop that guarantees harvest during drought and flood, and can be eaten by both humans and animals, has become the first choice for local people to grow. There is nothing to be afraid of if the yield is low. Anyway, it can be grown wherever it is.  If you can live, but don¡¯t occupy good land, you can charge more if you have more varieties.

    Next, the production team leader and several cadres in charge of agricultural production took Li Hui to visit other areas, and also introduced him to some situations in Nanniwan.  To increase the harvest a little bit on the land, they tried every means, not only established theAn agricultural scientific research unit wants to use scientific means to increase food production, and has also introduced many drought-tolerant and high-yielding crops and livestock from abroad, such as American golden corn, German black potatoes, Argentine peppers, Australian cows, guinea pigs  etc.

    Their efforts have indeed paid off. In the absence of chemical fertilizers, pesticides, and improved seeds, the group of agricultural scientists, most of whom are self-taught, have increased cotton production by 10% by improving traditional planting methods.  The harvest per mu has reached about 50 catties; wheat production has also increased by 10%, and the harvest per mu can be about 100 catties.  The yield of corn has also increased a lot, and the harvest per mu has reached 80 catties.

    ? You read that right, and I did not miss a zero or a letter. Some people may ask, is such a small output a bad harvest, of course not, and this output is already considered very good.

    In fact, in real history, the output of the Republic of China has always been very low. According to records, in the 28th year of the Republic of China, that is, in 1939, the average yield per mu of several crops in Ningxia Province was: 130 catties of rice, 150 catties of wheat, and 170 catties of barley. 200 catties of corn, 270 catties of sorghum, 240 catties of millet, 120 catties of peas, and 680 catties of potatoes.  This kind of yield is due to the fact that the land in most areas of Ningxia Province is very fertile and irrigated by the Yellow River. In neighboring Gansu Province, the average yield per mu of these crops was less than 80% of these figures.  And the more barren northern Shaanxi produces less than half of Ningxia's crops.

    I have to say that it is really not easy for those old seniors to make the output of Nanniwan crops reach this figure in just two years!  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
