    You can search for "Bringing the Farm Through Time" on Baidu to find the latest chapters!

    Fertilizers are now being put into production, but it is not yet time to apply them.  This time, we are planning to stock up on large-scale fertilizer production. In the south, we can still farm in the winter, but in the north, the mountains are blocked by heavy snow and it is impossible to farm.

    Therefore, the large quantities of chemical fertilizers produced now are stored first, and will be sold after the lockdown in the north is lifted next year and the fields are planted.

    This time, sweet potatoes have another bumper harvest. Especially after adding chemical fertilizers, the yield of sweet potatoes per mu is nearly 10,000 kilograms. This kind of yield is really exciting.

    A batch of rice has also matured, and the rice yield of about 1,000 per mu is also very good.  Although its yield is only one-tenth that of sweet potatoes, how can it be the same?  The yield of rice cannot be compared with that of sweet potatoes, and sweet potatoes are not as delicious as rice.

    The high yield of sweet potatoes this time makes experts even more happy, and they plan to promote it.  If sweet potatoes with such a high yield can be grown all over the country, and if the chemical fertilizers are produced later, at least no one will go hungry.

    There are also rice crackers. Rice crackers are still very important now.  Sweet potatoes are indeed high-yielding, but if you eat too much of them directly, you will get heartburn. If you make sweet potato powder, the amount will be much less, so rice crackers are still very important.

    What¡¯s more, no one has too much food. In a few decades, when everyone will no longer be hungry, Mr. Yuan is still researching various high-yield rice.  How can we despise the abundance of food in this era?

    And there wasn¡¯t that much food in this era.

    It¡¯s just that the sweet potato leaves grown in the past two seasons are not enough to be distributed across the country. After all, China is too big.  In such a big place, the sweet potatoes grown in two seasons are not enough.  These sweet potatoes must be eaten after they are grown, right?  It is impossible to keep them all as seeds.

    Therefore, there are not enough sweet potato seeds to distribute throughout the country, and at this time, the importance of rice crackers comes out.  Moreover, rice crackers have just grown young seedlings, and it will take several years before they bear fruit.  During the few years between when the rice crackers were planted and they could bear fruit, they relied on high-yielding sweet potatoes and rice to fill their stomachs.

    Chemical fertilizers have not yet been promoted nationwide, so there is no news about chemical fertilizers in the Yunhe Brigade in the Yunnan-Guangxi region.  But even so, after secretly fertilizing all the planting fields of Yunhe Brigade with the help of the farm, the crops grew particularly well.

    This time, after the rice harvest is finished, we are going to plant sweet potatoes. We plant three crops of food a year, but we plant two crops of rice and one crop of sweet potatoes.

    In fact, sometimes we only plant two seasons one or two years apart, and then leave a few months to cultivate the land.  After all, farming all the time consumes a lot of fertilizer. When the time comes, the land will become thinner and thinner, and the crops grown will not grow well.

    After harvesting the rice this time, everyone started plowing the land again, and then buried the soil with fertilizer.  These fertilizers were made by ourselves, and after adding fertilizers from the fertilized land secretly added by Chen Xiayue, everyone began to plant sweet potatoes.

    ??Sweet potatoes are rarely grown directly on sweet potato vines.  These sweet potato vines were planted in a piece of land previously chosen. If these sweet potato vines are not enough to plant the entire land, then continue to plant corn, peanuts, soybeans, etc.

    Soybeans are a crop grown on fertile land, so generally speaking, soybeans will be grown wherever there is not enough land to plant sweet potatoes.  Corn and peanuts are rarely grown, and soybeans can only be fried or boiled like some ancient novels. Can¡¯t soybeans still be used to grind tofu?

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

    ¡°Her daughter-in-law¡¯s work in the fields doesn¡¯t count as work points. What should she do if she is exhausted?  What a loss.

    So Chen Xiayue followed Zhang Chengchuan to help deliver the sweet potato vines, stayed there for about an hour, and then left. She would not work together like others and leave work together.

    Chen Xiayue¡¯s family also knew that her side was busy with farming, so Chen Xiayue and her eldest brother Chen Xiasong came over during the weekend to bring Chen Xiayue some food.

    The conditions of the Chen family are good. Although some people in the city may not be able to live well, the Chen family is still living a good life.  This time, I was also worried that Chen Xiayue and Zhang Chengchuan would be too tired when they were busy farming, so I sent them some nourishing food.

    Chen Xiasong bought two kilograms of ribs, one kilogram of pork belly and two grass carps for his sister. When he came, he also gave two kilograms of tofu. He knew that his sister liked tofu.

    "Brother, come on. Why did you bring so many things?" Chen Xiayue was very surprised to see Chen Xiasong bring so many things. Although her family gave her things from time to time, she also gave them from time to time.  Go back with something, but did you bring too many things this time?

    Two pounds of pork ribs and one pound of pork belly are enough. There are also two grass carp weighing about two or three pounds, which is also very expensive.

    "Brother, why did you send so much kelp to me? Isn't it too much?" Chen Xiayue was even more surprised when she looked at the dried kelp that was about half a sack. Yunhe Brigade is not close to the sea and wants to eat seafood.  It's also very difficult.

    You can only eat dry food such as seafood and sea vegetables, and the prices are quite expensive.  Most people can't afford seafood. These are not too expensive in coastal areas, but are very expensive in inland areas.

    Kelp is also very expensive in Yunhe Brigade and in the county. The price is more expensive than eggs.  So where did this little half-sack of dried kelp come from?  How much did it cost?

    "These kelp were sent by my uncle." Chen Xiasong also knew what his sister was thinking, and knew that she felt that the family was spending too much money.

    but¡ª¡ª

    "My uncle collected these kelp in the fishing village, and the price is not that expensive, just like the ordinary vegetables we grow at home. My uncle collected a lot of dried kelp and sent a lot to his family. Just  At our house, my uncle sent a sack." Chen Xiasong said with a smile.

    "Uncle, why did he buy so much?" Chen Xiayue asked in surprise. It was not easy for fishermen in this era. The fishing boats were not that good. Catching seafood was a life-and-death struggle.

    Kelp is not as valuable as other seafood. If you are lucky enough to find a kelp bush that grows well, you can harvest a lot of kelp and dry it in the sun.

    But why did Uncle Chen buy so much kelp in one go?  Just a sack of kelp as a gift to her natal family, what about the other rooms in the Chen family combined?

    "It just so happened that my uncle took it over there and bought a lot of things in the name of his work unit. He just bought the kelp himself to add to the topping." Chen Xiasong said, "It happens that kelp is also quite nourishing. You often use it to make soup.  It¡¯s good for your health.¡±

    Chen Xiayue looked at the dried kelp and nodded, "Okay, I will make kelp often." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
