Military Technology

Wu Hao was really speechless about this. This is just an idea of ​​his, basically an imagination, and it is almost impossible to realize it.

As a technology company, he doesn't want to spend too much energy in other industries, let alone learn from a certain technology leader to raise pigs. Although it is scientifically raising pigs, no matter how you raise them, the pigs will not be able to fly.

Moreover, this kind of large project involving more than 100,000 mu is likely to affect the overall situation of the industry, so we must be cautious. In particular, it also involves the interests of the majority of farmers, and it must be considered properly to ensure that nothing goes wrong.

But no matter how much he explained, Xu Xiaoya became very interested in this project. So he hurriedly bid farewell to him and returned to the urban area. It seemed that he wanted to communicate with the leaders of the division.

This somewhat relieved him, at least he didn't have to worry about being drawn into it.

After Xu Xiaoya left, Wu Hao became much more relaxed. Immediately, together with Du Xiuming and the others, they drove the car across the desert where the farm was located. Not to mention, the whole process is very cool, which is completely different from driving on the road.

I wandered around, but actually saw nothing, except sand, which is sand. Occasionally, one or two dry Populus euphratica can be seen, but nothing else.

"Wind-proof and sand-fixing is the key. I don't want the farm we have worked so hard to be buried in the sand." Wu Hao said to Du Xiuming who was following him.

Du Xiuming nodded and said, "Don't worry about that, we already have a preliminary plan.

Next week at the latest, the first batch of 50,000 fast-growing poplars and 10,000 populus euphratica seedlings we ordered from Tulufan will arrive.

When we arrive, we will hire workers to start planting, and strive to complete the 1,500-hectare shelterbelt planting plan before winter comes. "

"Fast-growing poplar, isn't this something bad? It's polluted by flowering fluff, it's easy to cause people's allergies, and it's also prone to fires. And it seems that I heard that the lifespan of this kind of tree is relatively short, only 30 to 40 years. It will die on a large scale." Wu Hao frowned and said.

Some time ago, he also read a news article saying that this kind of fast-growing poplar was used in the Sanbei Shelterbelt. Now that the tree has reached its age, it has begun to die on a large scale, and it is urgent to replace it with new tree species.

"It's not very good, but it is the most common sand-fixing and windproof tree species here. The main reason is that it is resistant to drought, grows fast, and is cheap.

What we urgently need at present is that these trees can grow up quickly to protect the farm from wind and sand. As for other disadvantages, we can only improve slowly.

No, we also ordered 10,000 Populus euphratica seedlings. This is a local tree species that is extremely resistant to drought, has a well-developed root system, hard wood, and is very effective in windbreak and sand fixation. But there is also a disadvantage, that is, this Populus euphratica grows relatively slowly.

It takes more than ten years for a seedling as thick as a thumb to begin to grow, which is too time-consuming for us to quench our thirst.

That's why we use the combination of these two saplings to complement each other. In this way, we can not only achieve the effect of fast windbreak and sand fixation, but also achieve long-term development. "Du Xiuming explained to him.

Wu Hao nodded when he heard the words, this is indeed a good way. Fast-growing poplar grows fast, but it has short lifespan and some disadvantages. It is suitable for planting and quickly becoming a forest. But Populus euphratica is drought-resistant, with well-developed root system, hard wood, good windproof and sand-fixing, and has certain landscape value. But the growth rate is slow, and it is not easy to form a forest, so it is suitable for slow cultivation.

Therefore, the mixed planting of these two kinds of trees can perfectly solve the disadvantages of these two kinds of trees, which can be described as the best of both worlds.

Suddenly, another idea popped up in Wu Hao's mind. If the fast-growing poplar's fast-growing gene is extracted and then implanted into the gene of Populus euphratica, wouldn't Populus euphratica grow as fast as the fast-growing poplar?

Plant gene editing technology is actually to intervene and rehearse the growth characteristic genes of plants or add new genes to achieve related purposes.

This technology seems to be relatively cutting-edge and difficult to reach, but in fact, ordinary people have been in close contact with it for a long time.

In fact, many of the agricultural and sideline products we currently use use this technology, which is what we often call genetically modified technology.

This technology is actually not a scourge. In fact, people's fear of it still comes from ignorance, especially doubts about its safety.

The unknown creates fear, and as long as people fully understand it, this fear will gradually disappear. Whether you accept it or not, genetically modified agricultural by-products and even livestock and poultry are the general trend in the future.

After all, as the population on the earth increases, the available arable land area decreases, and the lack of land becomes more and more serious. The existing agricultural technology has basically come to an end. Only genetically modified technology can promote large-scale growth of agricultural by-products in a short period of time to keep up with the growth rate of human beings.

So for us ordinary people, it is only a matter of time before the popularity of genetically modified agricultural and sideline products. starter

At present, various scientific research institutions and relevant national departments are doing, on the one hand, gradually eliminating the panic of the public, and on the other hand, stepping up experiments and related risk control.

These genetically modified agricultural and sideline products will not be produced and enter the market until they are confirmed to be safe and harmless. Of course, this is just a normal situation. The new 81 Chinese website is updated the fastest. Computer side:

It should be easier to accept this kind of genetically modified trees than to let the public accept related agricultural and sideline products. Not only these two trees, but also other vegetation.

Or is it directly cultivating a super plant that combines various advantages? For example, it has the growth speed of bamboo, the drought resistance of Haloxylon, the hard woody body of Populus euphratica, the flowers like rhododendron, and the fragrance of jasmine.

Thinking of these, Wu Hao couldn't help but look forward to it. If this super plant is really produced, the desertification problem in Northwest China will be completely solved.

It seems that it is necessary to consider establishing a biological research institute.

"Mr. Wu, Mr. Wu?"

"Ah?" Wu Hao quickly came back to his senses, and coughed twice to relieve the embarrassment of being absent-minded in front of everyone.

"Go ahead." Wu Hao said to him.

Du Xiuming glanced at him curiously, not knowing what his boss was thinking and lost his mind. But since he said that, Du Xiuming had no choice but to continue: "We have also taken into account the disadvantages of the fast-growing poplar flowering fluff that you just said, which is prone to allergies and fires.

So after these fast-growing young are alive, we will sterilize them. That way, it won't produce fuzz during flowering. "

"Sterilization?"
