Chapter 135 The Way to Win
In addition to the materials provided by Xu Xiaoxue, this issue of Seed Industry Weekly contains a lot of more detailed information about corn seeds.

For example, the Ministry of Agriculture announced the ranking of corn seed planting area and market share last year, etc.

On this list,
Zhengdan 958 is far ahead, with a planting area share of nearly 20%, and it is predicted to grow to 30% this year.

The second and third ones only account for a pitiful 5%, while Tianyu No. 1 and Xianyu 335 are not on this list.

But on the price list, the two are leading the way, causing a stir.

A certain province, Academy of Agricultural Sciences.

A burst of sneers came from the office.

"Ha, what a pair!"

"Xianyu 335 is a product of Pioneer. It's OK that it's expensive because it has foreign capital, but how can Tianhe Seeds have the confidence to set such a high price?"

"70 yuan per kilogram, why doesn't he just rob people?"

"If it can still sell well at this price, it will be harder to make money than for him."

"With this price, there's no need to sell in large quantities. As long as we can promote it to 300,000 or 400,000 mu and achieve a sales volume of one million kilograms, the profit will be enormous."

When everyone was discussing it, a researcher suddenly said something.

"The orders for Tianhe No. 1 before the New Year must have been more than one million kilograms."

The atmosphere cooled down for a long time before someone asked, "Old Wang, where did you get the news? Were you deceived?"

"You can see it by going to the market. Tianhe's seed sales have started ahead of schedule, and farmers are also willing to sign orders in advance."

……

Jiuquan, Shazhou Seed Industry.

To be precise, it is Shazhou-Pioneer Seed Industry.

Xie Fanglin is still the general manager of the branch, and he also saw the report in Seed Industry Weekly.

In the past few years, the business of Shazhou was very depressing. Although it is not big, it is the leader of the corn seed industry in Northwest China, and it has hundreds of thousands of acres of high-quality corn seed production bases in the Hexi Corridor.

Although it is large, it only exists in small regional varieties and is confined to one place.

It was not until the Pioneer Group entered the market that Shazhou had a large national variety.

Xianyu 335,

That's their trump card.

Looking at Zhengdan 958, which topped the list, Xie Fanglin was full of envy for Denong Company. A good variety can last for 6-10 years.

Although Xianyu 335 has more advantages than Zhengdan 958, its seed production has not yet increased.

We need to increase promotion.

Then he looked at Tianyu No. 1 again.

Last year, Tianhe produced 60 kilograms of Tianyu No. 1 corn seeds, which made him feel uncomfortable and alert.

But then I thought about it carefully. With 60 kilograms of seeds, the maximum promotion area would be about to acres.

Even the gaps between the teeth of the sandbar cannot catch up,

This year, the price has increased significantly.

70 yuan per kilogram? Do you really want to suppress Shazhou Seed Industry?
Xianyu 335 is sold at a high price, firstly because of its unique variety characteristics, and secondly because of its low production.

The seed production of Tianyu No. 1 has increased significantly this year!

They dare to sell at high prices. If the inventory is piled up, there will be trouble.

……

The article in Seed Industry Weekly did not cause any ripples at Tianhe Seed Industry.

Except for Yan Qun and Guo Yang who would occasionally take a look, Tianhe's production and technical team was busy with their work.

In Heilongjiang Province, in Mongolia Province...

Tianhe's technical team is scattered across the country's provinces and regions with the largest planting areas.

Guo Yang arrived in Wuyuan.

I originally wanted to take a look at the saline-alkali land improvement project, as the rate of natural energy accumulation has been a bit slow recently.

But it just so happened that Tianhe Seed Company was going to hold a seed fair in Wuyuan, so he adjusted his schedule.

It is the end of March.

But the corn planting time in Wuyuan is usually in late April, and Tianhe’s distribution is ahead of schedule.

In the demonstration field, the technicians were still preparing, but some farmers became impatient. These people were dragged here by their neighbors.

"Why do we need to change varieties? Isn't Zhengdan 958 good enough? We can harvest wheat in the morning and plant corn in the afternoon. We can even apply fertilizer. It's much easier."

"Yes, once the seeds are sown, we just wait for the harvest, and the rest of the time we go out to work. Isn't 2000 yuan a month good?"

We tried planting it last year, and many people have had experience with it.

"Just wait. I can't cheat you. There are many tricks here. When you make a fortune in the future, you should think about me more. Don't be too ambitious and forget your mother after getting married."

"Huoyazi, one acre of land produces thousands of kilograms of corn, and if you sell them all you'll only get a thousand yuan. After deducting the cost, you'll only get a few hundred yuan. How can you make any money?" Huoyazi was not annoyed. Li Dazui from the same village had helped him several times and they had a good relationship.

He had never left the county in his life and had little experience, but he had been working in the fields for years and was more sensitive to changes in the land than others.

Last year, Tianhe chose a piece of land here and chose it as an experimental field to grow new varieties of corn and also sold the seeds to villagers.

The price of 70 yuan per kilogram is too expensive, and a yield of 3000 kilograms per mu sounds like bragging.

But including Huoyazi, there are still many people willing to try it.

After buying the seeds,

In the following year, Huoyazi experienced a completely different planting experience.

In Tianyu's demonstration field, on-site meetings have never stopped, from sowing on-site meetings, field management on-site meetings to harvesting on-site meetings.

Each measure is linked to another.

Just follow along and learn the whole process.

The harvest is naturally extremely gratifying.

Huoyazi said: "Tianyu No. 1 can earn an extra to per mu."

Li Dazui laughed and said, "Gao Yazi, it's not even night yet, why are you already talking nonsense when you're drunk? You made an extra 600 or 700? You made 600 or 700 in total, right?"

"Don't disbelieve me. Look at my hole. I made some money from the farm last year and went to the county town to fix it."

"That's true. It's better to fix it. Otherwise, when people kiss you, they will think you are sucking on your nipple. But I'm used to calling you gap-toothed. I'm afraid I can't change it."

"Call me, call me whatever you want, just don't call me daddy."

There was constant discussion in the crowd.

Some farmers became impatient, but as more and more people gathered around the demonstration field, they naturally became reluctant to leave.

After a while.

The technicians then set up the site.

This was followed by a detailed technical introduction, which caused many farmers to frown.

Tianhe seems to have complicated the cultivation model again, but something seems to be wrong.

until……

"One seed, one seedling. The germination rate of Tianyu No. 1 seeds is over 98%. They are neat and uniform. All seedlings will grow after one sowing. There is no need for thinning."

"The demonstration field covers a total of 50 mu, and on-site meetings were held for each link. After yield measurement, the average yield per mu last year reached 3066 kilograms."

"Many people came to see the whole process last year. They are familiar with the planting mode and results. Some people followed suit, and the yield should be very satisfactory."

There was an uproar.

Li Dazui curled his lips. Demonstration field?

He said loudly: "Everyone knows that the seed company's demonstration field has a high yield, but how many farmers can grow it?"

"Yes, nowadays a corn yield of 1000 kilograms is considered high."

"I gave birth to about 900 kilograms last year."

"We weigh 3000 pounds. If you raise your pillow at night, you will have all kinds of dreams."

The technician said: "You can ask around. Many people came to see the whole process last year. They are familiar with the planting model and results. Some people followed suit. The yield should be good."

"Did you come out and talk about it?"

Soon, a familiar farmer responded, "I followed Tianhe's method last year and the yield per mu was over 2100 kilograms."

"I also produced 2000 kilograms last year."

"2100 pounds."

As more and more people come forward to share their experiences, many people are becoming anxious.

"I planted Zhengdan 958 last year and produced more than 800 kilograms without doing anything."

"I gave birth to more than 800 kilograms."

"Last year, we suffered a late spring cold snap, which reduced the yield of many corn crops."

In the crowd, Guo Yang smiled.

This is the disadvantage of Zhengdan 958.

Normally, the yield of Zhengdan 958 is around 1000-1500 jin per mu, and it also has the potential to yield 1800 jin per mu.

However, once a special natural disaster occurs, there will be a significant reduction in production.

Li Dazui estimated the yield of his own corn, which was no more than 1000 kilograms, and asked quietly, "Huo Yazi, how much did you produce?"

Huoyazi chuckled.

"We produced more than 2300 kilograms."
