Upon hearing that it was about the commune, Jiang Yue immediately understood.
"Hello, Mr. Jiang."
Hello.
The secretaries of several communes and county leaders all came.
"Two years ago, Mr. Jiang, your company conducted a pig-raising pilot project in several of our communes. Last year, the Changbai pigs were raised exceptionally well. We are very grateful for the feed developed by your company, which allowed us to raise the Changbai pigs to over 200 jin (100 kg) in six to eight months..."
Hearing this, Jiang Yue laughed.
Large white pigs were introduced as early as the 1960s, but in the past ten years or so, the promotion of large white pigs has not been as widespread. Even in the north, black pigs are raised more often.
Starting two years ago, Jiang Yue contacted the Ministry of Agriculture and research institutes, among others.
Jiang Yue knew the formula of the feed that pigs ate in later generations. It used pig bones ground into powder and added to the feed, which made the pigs grow faster and had fewer diseases.
So she secretly found someone to conduct a pilot program, which actually succeeded the year before last. It's true that they can raise them to 200 jin (100 kg) in six to eight months. And the profit per head is at least 100 yuan.
Back when they were raising pigs, it was Xu Peng and his colleagues who said it was a good idea. That's right, Xu Peng is now the commune director. He was promoted last year.
Therefore, their commune was one of the first to start the pilot program.
Two years ago, they raised 20,000 pigs in their first batch. All the pigsties, feed processing facilities, machinery, and everything else were arranged by Jiang Yue. They simply recorded the accounts and waited for the pigs to be sold before settling the accounts.
As a result, with 20,000 pigs, the profit was more than 2 million yuan. After deducting several hundred thousand yuan for construction expenses, they were able to receive 1.5 million yuan. Their commune had ten brigades, so each brigade received 150,000 yuan.
A brigade has ten production teams. Now, each production team has more than 300 people, and each person can actually get fifty yuan.
That's fifty yuan! These days, their whole family only gets a couple hundred yuan a year. Raising pigs alone, that pig farm only has a few dozen people working there; the feed mill is a bit tougher.
The feed mill also made a lot of money this year, as the raw materials it received were all delivered by various communes. The feed mill actually earned several hundred thousand yuan. However, the feed mill involved a large investment, so the commune didn't receive any of that money, intending to use it to generate more profits.
Last year, they raised not 20,000 pigs, but 200,000. Several communes raised them together, with each commune raising more than 40,000 pigs.
This profit was simply astonishing to everyone.
After deducting expenses for buying piglets, feed, labor, and construction, each person in several communes received a total of one hundred yuan last year.
So they came here today with the county leaders to thank Jiang Yue and Qin Li.
"President Jiang, President Qin, this is a banner we're giving you. We've also brought ten slaughtered pigs with us this time..." Xu Peng said with a smile.
"We will accept the banner, but we cannot accept these ten pigs."
Jiang Yue smiled and declined.
But these people were too enthusiastic, and Jiang Yue and Qin Li couldn't refuse. So they had no choice but to accept them.
The county director said that at the beginning of last year, leaders from Beijing and the Ministry of Agriculture had wanted to promote the raising of Changbai pigs and feed. Now the promotion has been effective, and there are now more than ten provinces across the country piloting the program.
