Chapter 108 Agriculture, Forestry, Animal Husbandry and Fishery
Whether in the previous life or in this life, agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry and fishery, as the primary industries, have always been the top priority in the eyes of those in power.
After all...food is the basis of everything!
In Bruno's view, the primary industry is to solve the problem of food and clothing, the secondary industry is to solve people's daily needs, and the tertiary industry is to satisfy people's yearning for a better life.
With the primary industry still unstable, the current Idar Territory does not have enough confidence to develop the secondary and tertiary industries.
Therefore, in the entire territory of Idar, only Bruno could rely on his status as a count and the financial support of Idar to build large ships, create wonders, and conduct research and development with his mage apprentices.
But it is undeniable that no matter how straight the road is built or how good the wonders are, it cannot cover up the fact that Idar County still needs to improve the development of its primary industry.
Agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry and fishery are for the most basic people's well-being.
If the people of Idar County are hungry and cold, then even if Bruno takes steps to develop the area now, the gains will outweigh the losses.
Bruno had always subconsciously believed that the people of Idar Territory must not be out of touch with the development of Idar Territory! So, while Bruno was going to test the magic crystal bomb, he also arranged for Doug Batalov to start the plan of castrating piglets.
Among agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry and fishery, Bruno has set the tone for agriculture and fishery.
Sweet potatoes, corn and potatoes, any one of these three is a rare farming artifact and a treasure that countless time travelers dream of.
With the addition of composted manure, the direction of development of Idar Territory's farming industry has been determined.
What needs to be done next is to water and fertilize as usual, and then save enough seeds after the first harvest to gradually expand the arable land area of Idar Territory.
As for the so-called fishing, with the help of the methods Bruno had taught earlier, the Idar people's fishing boats would return with full loads almost every time they went out to sea, bringing a large amount of fish to the Idar territory.
Of course, in order to ensure that the small fish in the waters near Idar can grow up smoothly, the fishing nets used by the Idar people are all large-mesh ones, so those small fish will not be caught at all!
And forestry among agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry and fishery...it not only belongs to the primary industry, but also to the secondary and tertiary industries.
In many cases, it refers to farmland shelterbelts used to ensure food security, or economic forests such as dried fruit and oil tea.
However, due to the geographical location of the natural environment of Idar Territory, the impact of forestry on the primary industry is not that critical.
Bruno's plan to castrate piglets was also for the benefit of the livestock industry! Bruno didn't want to eat chicken all day! Since Bruno taught the cooks several ways to cook chicken, the cooks wanted to cook chicken almost every time they heard about meat dishes!
Besides, Idar doesn't have many chickens. If we eat them like this...
Well, even if he ate like this, he couldn't finish it. After all, Bruno was a count! But... a diet that was too monotonous was not a good thing.
So Bruno set his sights on the pigs!
Among the three old animals, cattle, sheep and pigs, pigs can be said to be the cheapest.
After all, pigs of this era were not castrated, so they all had a fishy smell...they tasted terrible, and most nobles were unwilling to even touch them!
The most fundamental reason why Bruno chose to castrate piglets is not because the taste and flavor of pork will be much better after castration, but because the growth cycle of castrated pigs will be greatly shortened! This is the most important reason why Bruno chose to castrate piglets!
Of course... all this is based on the premise that these castrated piglets can survive successfully!
If not, Bruno can only honestly exchange white-feathered broiler chickens in the system mall for breeding...
That’s right!
According to Bruno's plan, he was going to develop animal husbandry on a small scale by raising white-feathered broilers and castrated piglets! However, since corn, the main food needed to feed white-feathered broilers, was not yet mature, Bruno put the plan of exchanging white-feathered broilers on hold.
You know, white-feather broiler chickens can be released from the cage in just 40 days, and the meat-to-feed ratio reaches a terrifying 1:2!
Whether it is the demand for food or their own growth cycle, it is far lower than any kind of livestock in this world! After all, the Norman Empire is still in an era where people will starve to death!
Even in the current Idar Territory, Bruno does not dare to say that everyone can have enough food and clothing, so the livestock raised in the animal husbandry industry should consume as little food as possible!
Castrated piglets and white-feathered broiler chickens are undoubtedly the two things that best meet Bruno's requirements.
…
In the blink of an eye, more than half a month has passed.
What Bruno didn't expect was that the piglets that had only been operated on by Dr. Doug were unexpectedly strong.
Except for one unfortunate one who died due to wound infection, the rest of the little guys were lucky enough to survive.
Although the indescribable thing is gone, they are still alive and well!
The first batch of more than 20 pink and tender piglets that were operated on were all kept together. They had lost all the liveliness they had before the operation.
Without exception, all the little pigs were lazily lying on their stomachs and taking a nap, humming from time to time.
If you are hungry, just turn over, walk a few steps, and start eating with big mouthfuls.
Eat when you are hungry, sleep when you are hungry, for these piglets, this is simply the life they have always dreamed of! And after the castration surgery, even if two little boars get together, they will not fight from time to time like before.
Fighting is the most boring thing, how can it be more interesting than eating! Therefore, they all stayed in the pigsty quietly, eating and drinking as usual, and the previous painful experience was long forgotten by them.
So, nowadays, the piglets have almost no other activities except eating, drinking, defecating, urinating and sleeping. They have become qualified pigs! And these castrated pigs, even in the estrus period, will abide by their duties and regard growing plump as their most important job! Looking at the piglets, Bruno suddenly felt in a good mood!
After all...when these cute little pigs grow up quickly, Bruno will finally be able to eat pork without the fishy smell!
Two words: happy! ……
