The rise of nanometers

Chapter 583 Cold Wave

Summer in the Northern Hemisphere is winter in the Southern Hemisphere.

In South America, in the La Plata region in early winter, the Chaco Province in the north has a subtropical climate, which is also one of the core agricultural areas of La Plata.

The Pampas in La Plata is known as the "Granary of the World". The region has developed agriculture and animal husbandry. Beef, mutton and agricultural products are the pillar industries here and are also the core export products.

The Chaco Province of La Plata is located in the Chaco Plain in the north of the Pampas, roughly between the Tropic of Capricorn and 28 degrees south latitude.

In fact, the Chaco Plains and the Pampas are both part of the La Plata Plain. The total area of ​​the La Plata Plain is about 1.5 million square kilometers, of which the area within La Plata is about 900,000 square kilometers.

Chaco Province and Fu Province in Greater China have similar latitudes, but their agricultural development conditions are very different. Fu Province is densely mountainous and is only suitable for intensive small-scale agriculture; while Chaco Province is plain and is very suitable for mechanization. agriculture.

This unique natural condition has made mechanized agriculture highly developed here.

And ABCD's tentacles have already reached here, laying out and cultivating the local area. Especially after ABCD failed to withdraw from Asia, it paid more attention to the back garden of America.

Cargill's branch in the area is currently discussing with local farmers the area to plant crops.

Huli Valentine, general manager of the branch, felt extremely heavy after reading the agricultural reports for the first and second quarters.

Although the ABCD could compete with the Grain Alliance after uniting, the decline of the rice hegemony and the chain reaction caused still brought them huge setbacks.

"Hu Li, are soybeans still being planted this year?" a large farmer asked gloomily.

Another farmer complained: "My brother Bacchus, do you still want to grow soybeans? The soybeans I harvested last year still have about 3,400 tons in stock. If you want them, I will sell them to you cheaply."

"Damn it!"

"What's wrong with this world?"

"This year's Angus cattle are not easy to sell. Not only are the prices low, but they also require various quarantine procedures. The quarantine procedures in Greater China are more troublesome than those in the West Continent Alliance. It's like hell."

Hu Li pressed his temple with a headache. As the general manager of Cargill in La Plata, he had a lot of work and was very complicated.

Coordinating these farmers to produce various agricultural products is one of his tasks.

Suddenly a gust of cold wind rushed into the conference room from the window, and everyone shivered involuntarily. The secretary was about to close the window, but Hu Li was stunned.

At this time, snowflakes were falling outside the window.

He stood up and came to the window, stretched out his hand, and a snowflake slowly fell into the palm of his hand.

"It actually snowed in Chaco Province?" Bacchus, holding a corn stalk pipe in his mouth, looked at the cold snowflakes and recalled his past memories. In his memory, it rarely snowed in Chaco Province, especially like this. It's early and there's still so much snow.

Everyone frowned. Although there is a saying that auspicious snow heralds a good year, if the snowfall is too heavy, it will not be a good thing for the agricultural production of the Chaco Plains.

At this moment, secretary Eileen's cell phone rang. She hurried out to answer it, and hurried back a few minutes later.

She whispered in Hu Li's ear: "Mr. Manager, the latest news from the meteorological department is that due to the cold wave, the La Plata Plain may be 3 to 8 degrees Celsius lower than in previous years."

"The whole plain of La Plata?"

Erin nodded: "Yes."

After taking a breath of cold air, Hu Li rubbed his hair with one hand, and his mood became more solemn. Sudden weather changes are very likely to affect agricultural production in the La Plata Plain this year.

The snow outside is getting heavier and heavier.

Many farmers who participated in the meeting hurried back to deal with the sudden snowstorm.

If the snow in the Chaco Plains is like heavy snow, then the snow in the Pampas is like continuous heavy snow.

From the beginning of April this year, sporadic light snow began to fall in the Pampas. By May, the snowfall not only did not decrease, but intensified.

La Plata is a southern coastal city in the Pampas.

Suiren Company's local office, head of the office Situ Changming, looked out the window at the ice and snow, the icy cold wave of the South Atlantic rushing into the Pampas grassland like a broken bamboo.

Without the obstruction of tall mountains, the icy sea breeze brings huge amounts of water vapor. Due to the terrain, the Pampas grassland faces the icy cold wave of the South Atlantic Ocean.

Situ Changming checked the temperature on his mobile phone. At this time, the local temperature had dropped to minus 38 degrees Celsius. It was still daytime, and the temperature at night might be even colder.

There was a knock on the door.

"Team leader, it's me."

"Come in."

A gentle young man walked in with a document in his hand: "Team leader, I did some research on the Internet in La Plata and found that the local temperature this year is somewhat abnormal."

Situ Changming took the document, flipped through it, and then ordered: "Send the relevant content to the South American Agricultural Analysis Office."

"Okay." The young man nodded, and then he added: "By the way, Fengmin Agriculture asked us to help keep an eye on the bankrupt local farms."

"Oh? They want to continue to acquire the farm?"

"Yes, I heard that we plan to expand our investment in La Plata."

"Get back to them and say it's OK."

"Then I'll go down first."

"Um."

Situ Changming opened the phone book and began to consult some local cooperative companies.

The Food Alliance makes selective investments around the world, such as acquiring farms, and vigorously develops local agriculture. There is no conflict in itself.

Although the Americas are the territory of the Noah Society to a certain extent, the Noah Society's control over South America is actually not an ironclad wall.

Moreover, the South Pacific region of the Sui people is right next door to South America, and the distance between the two sides is closer than North America to La Plata.

The Food Alliance has invested heavily in various parts of the world. This is also based on the strong strength of Greater China, which can ensure the investment security of the Food Alliance.

In this regard, whether it is Fengmin Agriculture, Beidahuang Group, or COFCO Group, they all know it well.

The premise of the strategy of going global is that one's fists are strong enough to dispel the greed of local snakes. Without strong force, if one invests all over the world, one can only be slaughtered as a fat sheep.

In fact, the Food Alliance's global investment is not small, and it is not a one-man operation. You must know that there is a "second Japan" in South America.

As the Japanese mainland came under control, the hidden heritage of the Second Japan was also taken over.

Huang Xiuyuan, who was in Shanmei at this time, also received relevant reports on the unusual cold wave situation in the La Plata Plain. After reading it, his expression became more cautious.

"The butterfly effect is getting bigger and bigger."

The greater his influence and the more things he does, the greater his influence on Blue Star.

In the seven years from 2008 to now, he has changed the domestic energy structure and the total amount of carbon dioxide emitted into the atmosphere has been at least 30 to 40% lower than the same period in history.

This is a very huge number, which has also caused North America to surpass China again in total carbon dioxide emissions.

If the refining of energy storage toner is added, the domestic carbon dioxide emissions will show a trend of decreasing in the future.

Northeast Asia, Oceania, and Southeast Asia will gradually complete carbon neutral transformation. The butterfly effect brought about by this change will definitely change the climate.

Huang Xiuyuan was caught in a dilemma.
