Chapter 272
Arriving at Nandu Airport, it was two o'clock in the afternoon.

Chen Mo went straight to the airport after eating, and the plane had already landed.A large chartered plane, after a 16-hour flight, loaded a container with 110 New Zealand Wagyu cattle.This batch of cows are all pregnant and more than half of them have been unloaded.

"Boss." Zhou Hao shouted from here.

Chen Mo said 'hmm' and went over to take a look at these wagyu beef.

This was Chen Mo's first time seeing a live Wagyu beef, which looked similar to an Angus cow.

These cattle have returned, but they cannot return directly to Mushan County. They must first go to the Longxing Town Breeding Demonstration Base and undergo a 45-day Gree quarantine.

Cheng Tangke liked these cows, so he came over and took a closer look: "Wagyu cows are really good-looking, and their bodies are more symmetrical than Angus cows."

"Aren't they the same?" Zhang Cheng stared and said, "I just don't see any difference from Angus cattle."

Chen Mo chuckled.

There are two more planes arriving today...

Chen Mo did not stay at the airport anymore, but went to the breeding demonstration base in Longxing Town.

"Boss. Mr. Cheng, Mr. Zhang..." Wang Xing shouted.

Chen Mo smiled and nodded: "Everything has been arranged."

"The arrangements have been made." Wang Xingguo said: "I just took a look at the cow that was sent. It is indeed good."

Chen Mo went to the cowshed.

The Angus cattle are outside the barn, with Chen Mo’s employees and quarantine personnel...

Chen Mo's employees are doing physical examinations on the cattle, while quarantine staff are taking blood tests.

Chen Mo felt relieved after hearing Wang Xing's arrangements here.

More than 1000 cows and cattle, with a total value of tens of millions.Including freight and other expenses, it costs about 6300 million to get these Wagyu cattle back to Mushan.

Wagyu beef with pedigrees, even if it is grass-fed, is more expensive than grain-fed Angus cattle.

Today I just came to see the wagyu, nothing else.

After returning to the car and getting on the highway, Chen Mo received a call from Zhou Jie: "Are you done?"

"Busy working."

"Are you coming back?"

"On the highway, it takes about two hours."

"He also said that when you come back to play cards, we'll be setting up golden flowers here, so hurry up."

"need……"

Chen Mo hung up the phone and Zhang Cheng turned around: "What is the approximate yield of alfalfa per mu?"

"Not much." Chen Mo said, "I haven't calculated it, so I don't know."

Chen Mo has data on the yield per mu of alfalfa, but the yield is a little high, so it's hard to tell.Sow seeds in August, harvest in December...

One acre of hay harvests about six hundred kilograms.You must know that this is hay. It is not easy to harvest about [-] kilograms of hay at a time. The alfalfa grows lush and dense.

When harvesting alfalfa, you have to wait until the grass is older, but not too old, which is just right.

A rough calculation shows that if managed well, the alfalfa irrigated by the spiritual spring can produce two thousand kilograms of hay a year.Alfalfa is expensive, the current price is more than 2000 yuan per ton.

It is easy to check the prices of various forage grasses. The prices of all kinds of forage grasses per acre of land are available.

"I want 2 tons of silage next year, no problem." Cheng Tang said.

"There is no problem with the silage." Chen Mo said, "Don't worry."

Previously, we planted 5 acres of barley grass, 5 acres of ryegrass, and 1 acres of alfalfa.Barley grass and rye grass were all harvested.

Barley grass produces about 2.6 tons of fresh grass per mu.Rye, about 2.9 tons.These are made for silage and have been piled in the silage fermentation tank.This is 2.75 tons. "I need silage over there, at least 1 tons." Zhang Cheng said.

"We also need more than 1 tons." Zhou Furui said.

"Silage is easy to get," Chen Mo said, "Just book how much you want in advance."

"Alfalfa costs 1 yuan per ton. Isn't it a little expensive?" Cheng Tang said.

"The alfalfa protein content here is about 20.00%, and it costs 1 yuan per ton, which is not expensive." Chen Mo said.

"More than 2000 tons of alfalfa is unaffordable." Zhang Cheng said, "By the way, what kind of machine do you use to collect the dried silage over there?"

"Machines that suck feed." Chen Mo said, "Stay away from road cleaning vehicles."

"How much does it cost?"

"Mine is customized, 112 million." Chen Mo said.

"Order one for me. Your alfalfa is too expensive. I'd better buy silage and dry it myself."

"You are willing to feed more than 2000 tons of dry alfalfa?" Cheng Tang looked at Chen Mo.

"What is there to bear..."

Dried alfalfa is expensive, and dried ryegrass costs 1350 yuan per ton.The price is considered moderate.

However, compared with silage, silage is only 330 yuan per ton.

Take cattle raising as an example.

To raise a 1000-pound cow, if you only feed it hay, it will require about 3 tons of hay a year.

If you only feed silage feed, you will need about 7-8 tons per year.

If hay and green storage are fed together, 1 ton of hay and 4-5 tons of green storage are needed.

Based on the fact that a cow needs to eat 4-5 kilograms of concentrated feed a day, in a year, a cow needs to eat about 1000-1500 kilograms of concentrated feed.

If all cows are fed dry alfalfa, it will definitely not work and they will lose money.

Besides, when raising cattle or sheep, the best thing is to combine dry and wet conditions.Besides, they are all people with pastures.

Everyone knows how to settle accounts. According to Chen Mo’s feed quotation, buying silage is the most cost-effective.And if you directly buy unfermented silage or lightly fermented silage and take it back to dry, it will become dry feed.

The large pasture has 1 acres of alfalfa, and now it has harvested [-] to [-] acres, which is only three to four thousand tons of hay.

Alfalfa is mainly used to feed ewes, pregnant ewes or ewes with babies.The nutritional value of alfalfa is relatively high, so it is best to use alfalfa with some concentrated feed.

"By the way, is it okay to raise sheep without feeding them any concentrated feed?" Zhou Furui said.

"Okay, but it grows slowly and won't grow big." Chen Mo said.

"Black goats can be pure grass carp. I heard from Sun Xuebing that black goats can eat grass all the time." Cheng Tang said.

Black goats are suitable for raising on pure grass, but they only need to be fed some silage regularly.

Silage will be added with salt and nutrients that goats need.

Raising sheep is quite simple.It’s difficult to say that it’s difficult.Different sheep have different feeding methods.

Black goats are suitable for pure grass raising, but if the breeding methods are the same as other sheep, they can grow very fast and reach more than 100 kilograms.

We took the expressway back and reached Mushan County in two hours.

Some time ago, when my uncle went out to buy lambs, he bought more than [-] New Year pigs. Today, my uncle's house slaughtered pigs and invited a lot of people.

Arrive at Wushan, my uncle’s home.

My brother-in-law also built a house on the ranch with a big yard.Several makeshift earthen stoves were set up beside the yard, where meat was being stewed. The aroma wafted out and could be smelled from afar.
