Graphene separators and films are all produced from factories in New Matt District. The ones with higher technological content are directly produced by industrial-grade 3D printers.
The work continued until the beginning of July. Half of the development of the 400,000-acre undersea planting area was completed, and tens of thousands of undersea planting units were laid out on the seabed with a water depth of more than 100 meters. Through the thin but strong graphene film, you can see the rows of emerald green plants in the culture tank, growing prosperously under the weak LED light source.
There are a total of ten offshore platforms distributed in the sea area, with twelve staff permanently stationed on each platform, as well as two Starring Trade bodyguards responsible for security work. Each offshore platform has to manage thousands of planting units, which may seem a bit forced, but it is not.
A series of tasks such as watering, fertilizing, sowing, soil replacement in the culture tank, etc. can all be completed automatically through the planting unit. Only in the event of a small number of emergencies will the staff need to drive the submersible into the water.
The surrounding water has become an oxygen-rich environment for the growth of fish due to the oxygen emitted by these planting units. In order not to waste such an excellent fishing ground, Jiang Chen planned the upper part of this planting area to be an offshore fishery, building a floating breeding base to raise sardines, salmon, cod, lobster and other common species in the seafood market, while also producing Fish oil and other by-products.
Because of the oxygen-rich environment, the development speed of these fry is much faster than that of wild-raised fish, the meat will be more delicious, and it is easier to accumulate fat.
In addition, the feces of these fish schools can also be collected through special equipment and used as natural organic fertilizer!
Farms and fisheries complement each other, which is what is called circular agriculture.
As early as mid-August this year, vegetables grown in New Zealand will be available in farmers’ markets in New Zealand. And by the end of this year at the latest, New Zealand's grain market will reverse the zero-export situation and transform from a major grain importing country to a granary on the Pacific!
Cargill in the U.S. won’t sell its farms
Laugh, I’m not that curious about it!
However, Australian companies are not so happy to see this situation.
The only competitors in Asia that monopolize the entire Australian rice market and most of the agricultural products market are Thailand and Vietnam. However, now a new seafarer has emerged and started growing vegetables on the seabed. This is obviously not a good start.
Originally, they were quite optimistic about the agricultural product market of the new country. After all, the cultivated land area and the population of the new country are completely disproportionate, and the ability to withstand the price fluctuations of the global food market is almost zero. However, now, the new country is using this order. The shocking way to get rid of dependence on Australian agricultural products is really difficult for the company's top management to accept.
At the same time that Xinhainong announced the construction of a fish farm above the seabed farm and the implementation of "three-dimensional agriculture", the American company Cargill held a board meeting to discuss measures to deal with the changes in the Asian farmers' market.
From the beginning of the meeting, there was endless debate on the conference table. The shareholders of Cargill in the United States are very complex. Although there are only one or two real decision-makers, such meetings cannot exclude those qualified shareholders.
"Not just an undersea farm, I heard they are also planning to build an undersea ranch!"
"Are these monkeys who crack coconuts on the islands planning to turn the entire shallow sea in the Western Pacific into cultivated land?"
"We have to find a way to stop them!"
"But the New Kingdom is a country. We can't convince Congress to interfere with them, right?"
“What resources are available to us?”
"USDA? The level is completely inadequate!"
"Use dumping! We can squeeze out their undersea farms with low-priced food!" one shareholder shouted, tapping his knuckles on the table.
"It's difficult! If the Future People Group is determined to enter the agricultural market, they won't care about losing this little money! With their financial resources and influence, they are at least on the same level as the Boston Consortium... "
As the meeting progressed, it unexpectedly became quiet.
Yes, after all, the Future Man Group is on the same level as the Boston Consortium. Although the four major ACD companies have consortia investing behind them, Cargill in the United States is a privatized company, and its main assets are also in Asia. The interest relationship between the consortium is not that close, and the market value is only between 100 million US dollars.
Isn't it easy to start a price war with the Future People Group, which has a market value of more than hundreds of billions
Even if they are engaged in high-tech companies and their market value is somewhat artificially high, no bank would be willing to refuse such a large investor if they just take out some assets as collateral. Unless the U.S. government deems it necessary to take action, they are simply asking for trouble by finding the Future Man Group on their own.
The CEO of Cargill rested his arm on the table and repeatedly rubbed his sore forehead and brow with his fingers.
If I had known this outcome, I would have sold the 400,000-acre farm! Anyway, there is not fertile land in the north of Australia. The fertile land is concentrated in the east and south. Now, if the new country enters the grain market, their market share in Asia will be cut off.
Undersea farm
The territorial waters of the new country are really scary. The area of cultivated land on the seabed leaves too much room for people's imagination.
…
"Yesterday morning, we received a notice from the United Nations Marine Conservation Organization. Greenpeace sued us, believing that our projects on the seabed have seriously affected and damaged the ecological environment of the Pacific Ocean. A professor from the School of Biological Studies at Columbia University in the United States supported this view, claiming that according to The mathematical model he established analyzed that these 400,000 acres of undersea farmland may completely change the living habits of local fish stocks, thereby triggering a large-scale marine ecological disaster."
"In addition, Greenpeace held a march in front of the New Zealand Embassy in California, holding IADs to play marine protection documentaries to protest against the New Zealand government's contempt for nature."
In the presidential palace, Zhang Yaping faced the secretary's report with a headache.
"Greenpeace...why did another Greenpeace appear?"
Greenpeace was originally a civil rights organization that opposed nuclear testing during the Cold War, but it has now evolved from non-violence into a model of anti-civilization organization. As for why you say that? In their eyes, all industries, from chemistry to genetic modification, are "devil's elements" and must be eliminated; from Apple computers to tuna cans and mineral water bottles, they are all toxic, harmful and useless things that will last for thousands of years.
Any country or organization will have a headache if they are entangled with these people.
Compared with the little-known Blue Dolphin International organization that once entangled the Future People Group, this Greenpeace is undoubtedly more organized and much more difficult to deal with. Now Greenpeace has learned the lessons of its "predecessors" and bypassed the strong backbone of the Future People Group to directly put pressure on the new government.
Although it’s not painful or itchy, it’s still all kinds of trouble!
"These saints who are full and have nothing to do, don't they know that there are people in this world who are still hungry?" Zhang Yaping slammed the document on the table and cursed angrily.
In fact, what he really wanted to scold was Jiang Chen, who had to wipe his ass every time something happened.
After calming down, Zhang Yaping said to his secretary.
"Call my chief of staff. We need to hold a meeting within the party about this matter."
"yes!"(.)
