"Okay, Secretary Zhang!" Li Mancang agreed and quickly arranged for everyone to sit down. Those who didn't have enough chairs didn't make a fuss, but stood quietly at the back waiting.
After everyone was seated, Li Mancang was the first to speak: "Everyone, please be quiet. Most people have arrived. Now, let's ask Jianguo to explain the specific method of composting."
"Pa pa pa pa"
As soon as Li Mancang finished speaking, warm applause broke out instantly. Funiu was sitting on a small bench in the front row, and Xiaohei was lying at her feet. The little girl opened her big eyes, looked at her brother without blinking, and clapped her hands vigorously, her palms turned red.
In the next half hour, Xu Jianguo explained in detail the method of composting. Taking the one cubic meter pit he dug as an example, he said that about 2,000 kilograms of fertilizer could be composted, which was basically enough to complete the fertilization task of one acre of land.
With the specific data as a basis, the experienced farmers instantly calculated the number of compost pits needed in their minds. After comparing them with the manure and straw stored in the village, they finally showed expressions of satisfaction on their faces.
This is equivalent to the fact that their manure used to be able to fertilize 100 acres of land. Now with the new method, the fertilized area can be doubled while the amount of manure remains the same, which can completely cover all the arable land in Sandaliang Village. How can they not be excited?
Xu Jianguo went on to say, "If there's not enough straw in the village, we can go up the mountain and pick some wild grass. Don't throw away the grass we remove from the fields. Once it's half-dried, we can chop it up and use it as compost."
"Well, this is the basic situation. I will be in the village recently. If you have any problems, you can contact me at any time. I promise to be there at any time!" Xu Jianguo said.
"Good!" Following a cheer, thunderous applause rang out again.
Li Mancang came over and said excitedly, "Jianguo, thank you!"
"Uncle Mancang, what are you talking about? Sandaliang Village is my home. I am doing some work for my family, and you, the head of the family, are saying thank you to me? You treat me as an outsider? I will be sad if you do this!" Xu Jianguo made a sad expression, which instantly destroyed the exciting atmosphere and caused the whole audience to laugh.
"By the way, I remembered something, Uncle Mancang. Our village has many terraced fields, and most of the arable land is on the mountain. I suggest that the compost pit be dug as close to the field as possible so that it can be used every year in the future, which is much more convenient. Another thing is that you must go back and tell the children in the village to pay attention to safety, tell them to play less near the fields, and make the lids sturdy. In short, try to avoid danger as much as possible." Xu Jianguo added one more point, which again aroused everyone's praise. They thought to themselves that they didn't know what was wrong with this kid's brain. He considered everything from small to big.
Li Mancang said that he would arrange what Xu Jianguo said, and then asked the commune secretary Zhang Aimin to come up and make a summary speech. The matter of composting in Sandaliang Village was settled.
In the next few days, the entire Sandaliang Village became lively again. The men were responsible for digging holes beside the fields, and the women were responsible for weaving holes covers with branches and vines. The children from each family were also given safety education by the elders. The obedient ones lived in peace, while the rebellious ones were met with bloody and ruthless suppression.
