Technological Hegemony

Chapter 569: Dumping China and agricultural backwardness

Luo Jia obtained a large amount of agricultural technical information from Lan Yu, so he began another round of high-intensity learning. At the same time, he gave the summarized data to the Ministry of Agriculture under the company, and the researchers of the Ministry of Agriculture carried out scientific research and development. .

Yes, Xingchen Technology has always had the Ministry of Agriculture, and the scale is quite small. Even Xingchen University also has a major in agriculture and forestry, but they are still operating step by step and have not made any achievements, so the world does not know. .

I also say that in the field of agriculture, we must endure loneliness.

Mr. Yuan Longping is a big name, but if you ask, what kind of varieties did he research, what is the output, what is the protein content, how is the domestic and foreign sales, and other professional issues, I am afraid that there are not many people in the country. Answer it.

讲 In the spirit of seeking truth from facts, modern times are a time of entertainment to death. Ordinary people do not understand science and chase stars and eyeballs will be the norm for many years to come.

If you are not careful, bewitched by the author of this book, and embark on the road of science, then you are destined to be lonely. Unless you know how to enjoy solitude, please be cautious in contacting science. All the truths from ancient times to the present are admonishing If we know more about ourselves, we will often become independent and lonely.

Anyway, Xingchen Technology has the Ministry of Agriculture, but some are different. For example, the Chemical Department managed by Zhang Dongning, in fact, a considerable number of researchers are also working on pesticides and fertilizers. In the Life Science Department of the Wen brothers, there are also some researchers and concurrently Research work on agricultural genetic engineering.

With the talented Xingchen Technology, it is difficult for you to limit a researcher to a specific job, and many people have multiple positions. This is exactly the significance of the interest group system, so that everyone can work in other fields and in other fields. Use your talents.

Uh ...

North America, Washington.

A fierce debate is ongoing, and its focus is on how to impose agricultural sanctions on Huaxia.

As we all know, since the trade war or hegemony began, China and the United States have taken several shots and played their respective cards. Now North America cannot find a very good hole card, so they have played an idea in the agricultural field. To what extent.

There are two schemes. One is sanctions in the conventional sense, which prohibits the sale of pesticides and seeds to Huaxia customers.

Another solution is agricultural dumping. The North American authorities take out funds to subsidize agricultural products, dump them at low prices into the Huaxia market, and destroy Huaxia's own agricultural foundation.

The dumping scheme is also the favorite of the Huaxia Comprador Group. Whether he destroys the enthusiasm of farmers for farming, as long as they can make money, for the comprador group, no matter which country's food is eaten, as long as it is full.

The fierce argument lasted for two full days, during which countless experts took the stage to give speeches, and lawmakers launched tit-for-tat attacks. Both sides tried to prove that their own plans could cause greater damage to Huaxia.

Sanctionists believe that Huaxia can only meet its own food needs, but agricultural and sideline products, such as vegetable oil, meat, and egg milk, most of this food demand depends on imports. Once the sanctions begin, Huaxia will fall into food or meat. Or, the price of meat is so high that it makes people embarrassed, which shakes the foundation of Huaxia.

The dumpingists believe that the supply cut will only bring temporary pain to Huaxia, forcing them to upgrade their agriculture to cope with the situation of self-sufficiency without external supply. Over time, Huaxia agriculture will instead take the opportunity to rise and never fear it again. Sanctioned.

In this case, it is entirely possible to use low-cost agricultural products to impact the Huaxia market and kill the current smallholder economy of Huaxia. At the minimum, it is also necessary for Huaxia to have a lot of dependence on agricultural products from abroad, so that it can be implemented in the future. hit.

The dumping faction also cited the example of soybeans. Due to the trade war, Huaxia banned the entry of North American soybeans, but what happened during that time?

Good luck Brazilians came forward, they bought North American soybeans to eat, and then sold Brazilian soybeans to Huaxia. Once and again, Huaxia still imported an amazing amount of soybeans, but there was a second-tier Brazilian trader in the middle. From the transaction, Minced a layer of skin.

In the end, the dumping faction won, and the North American authorities united the entire West to provide huge subsidies to His Majesty's agricultural institutions, secretly driving these agriculture, and launching a fierce price war against China.

Uh ...

"How can agriculture be dumped?" Cao Yuan said puzzledly, "Soybeans are sold to us at a low price? Isn't this good? Anyway, we don't have enough land to grow soybeans. Buy some first, after the East China Sea Westward Project is completed , And then de-importation is. "

"The existence of such agricultural products should be easy to control, right? If you increase taxes and quotas, let the customs conduct large-scale random inspections, and then return the agricultural products on the ground that the quality is not up to standard. Anyway, there are many ways, depending on how to do it. Now, I believe the national team has the means. "

Fall is the harvest season. As soon as September begins to fall, the news of western agricultural dumping has spread, so the Star Science and Technology Administration Bureau started a discussion on this.

The idea of ​​Cao Yuan also represents the thinking of the majority of the people in the country. Compared with high-tech lifelines such as semiconductors and precision components, the agricultural war generally felt insignificant. Keeping the red line of cultivated land and being able to complete food self-sufficiency would not Any trouble.

Hey ~

Luo Luojia shook her head gently. "You are so naive. Of course, you can't blame you. After all, agriculture is too unpopular. There are not many people who really understand it in China."

Slightly frowning, Luo Jia glanced around his friends, Shen Sheng said: "I am afraid that the agricultural foundation of our country is much worse than everyone thinks. Although my hometown is not in Shandong, it is very close and my habits are a little bit. Similarly, when making cold dishes, I like to multiply the onions and garlic, and have a heavier taste. "

"I think everyone should have heard of the Shandong onion. The stuff is very magical, and it can grow taller than adults. It completely subverts the perception of the people in the south, and the people of Shandong love to eat raw onions. , So it is also ridiculed as the province of Onion. "

"But do you know that such well-known Shandong shallots are actually imported seeds?"

When Luo Jia finished his remarks, everyone's face changed greatly. The first half sounded like a joke. No one in Shandong Province knew it. Even Shandong people like to ridicule themselves, but the back is getting more and more wrong. Shandong green onions turned out to be imported varieties? This is a bit of a subversive cognition. After listening, my heart seems a little blocked.

Luo Luo Jia paused and continued: "I did not lie to you. Among the seed suppliers of scallions in Shandong, neon companies account for more than 90%, mainly from Neon Sakai and Musashino Group."

"Of course, there are also domestic seeds, but the technology content is a lot worse, and the market share is less than 10%. Now Neon is dumping us with the West. In the future, the share of domestic green onion seeds will not be able to maintain even a few%. . "

"If there is no market and no money can be made, domestic agricultural enterprises will have no incentive to engage in R & D. Without R & D, the gap will widen. In the long run, a vicious circle will be formed, and Western agricultural enterprises will gradually get rid of it."

The meeting room was silent. Everyone knew nothing about agriculture and the competition that agriculture was facing. In fact, it was far more intense and cruel than the traditional science and technology field.

If the people of Onion Province know that the scallions they take pride in are imported seeds, they will feel a little uncomfortable.

Luo Luojia continued: "I use scallions as an example only. In fact, we are much more dependent on Western seeds than we think."

"Croatia is the favorite of fitness enthusiasts, and crocus is mainly dominated by three companies, namely Neon SAKATTA, North American monsanto, and Swiss Syngenta, which is Syngenta. Fortunately, Syngenta has been Sinochem bought it, so in the field of western blue flowers, we finally have a domestically produced force. "

"Next we look at onions. This is also an important vegetable. Not long ago, Indian onion production was reduced, which almost led to riots throughout the South Asian subcontinent. Although we do n’t love onions so much, we ca n’t really do dishes like cumin lamb chops. Without it, onion seeds are now 100% imported, North American nunhems, and neon TOKITA, and they are equally divided. "

"We not only import a large amount of seeds from Europe, America, and Japan every year, but also from Thailand. Chaotian pepper is an important raw material for the production of Laoganma. If there is no east-west in Thailand and Thailand Chia Tai Group provides seeds, we will not have laogan. Mom eats. Recently, everyone said that the old godmother tastes not as good as before. In fact, it is because the chia seeds of Chia Chia are very expensive. UU reading www.uukanshu.com changed some cheap goods. "

"In addition, carrot seeds are basically ruled by two neon companies, DO, known as the king of carrots, and Western agricultural groups can't beat it."

"The spinach seeds are mainly from neon TAKII and Syngenta. The most unfortunate thing is the kohlrabi. This stuff was originally a local variety in Zhejiang. As a result, the domestic agricultural enterprises have poor R & D capabilities and have been ruled by the neon Musashino Group. . "

"There are too many too many same examples. After years of hard work in China, cabbage seeds and half of North America each account for 70% of the tomato seeds that need to be imported. Cabbage seeds are slightly better. China accounts for two-thirds and South Korea accounts for three. One-third. "

Luo Luojia said here, everyone is dumbfounded. This is really not to say that I do n’t know. It ’s a bit scary. Who can think of it, most of the vegetables we eat everyday are actually imported varieties.

"There is no seed to use in our feelings in China? This is a bit miserable, right?" Cao Yuan could not help complaining.

Luo Jia shrugged. "Of course not. Seeds such as cucumbers, bitter gourds, and pumpkins are basically controlled by China. Generally speaking, in the field of vegetables and fruits, imported seeds account for 80%. For example, apples, you know by name Yes, Red Fuji, of course, is a neon seed. "

"In short, the problem of agriculture is actually more complicated and more severe than everyone thinks."

"Our problem is not that there is only one Yuan Longping, but that there is only one Yuan Longping. Assuming this old man, our agriculture will be even worse."
