African Entrepreneurship Record

When it comes to the wildlife in Mozambique, there are certainly more wildlife than anywhere else in East Africa. The East African National Defense Forces and militia are still carrying out a "big cleansing" of the local area.

And until the population of Mozambique does not change much, there may not be a good way to solve this problem. Once harvested, the price will soon grow back, so that East Africa will earn a lot more ivory and leather.

"Mayor Wald, we are going to rest near your town tonight. I wonder if you have any good places to recommend?" Lawns asked.

Wald thought for a moment and then said: "We also have a cowshed in our town, but it is too small and definitely not enough for you. As for there is no open space in the town, if you don't mind, you can rest on the grass in the south of the town. If you are a person, You can definitely arrange better accommodation, but you have too many cows.”

Lawns asked: "Are there any wild animals near your town recently?"

Walder shook his head and said: "They have disappeared in the past two or three years. You might have encountered them before, but now they have been killed. And you don't have to worry at all about the land south of our town. There was a cavalry unit going south there the year before last." They have many temporary military camps, so they built many military camps in the south. You can live there directly. They are now abandoned and need to be taken care of. "

This is a complete surprise for Lawns. This abandoned military camp is probably a product of the South African War. If nothing else, it is most likely an abandoned camp of the Cavalry Division. It should be enough to accommodate the cattle escorted by Lawns. .

The most valuable thing is that there are still abandoned houses to live in. Although it should be overgrown with weeds now, it is much better than people like me setting up temporary tents.

After saying some more words of thanks, Lawns led the team towards the abandoned military camp.

The abandoned military camp in Mullingen Town was quite large and even had a stable, which surprised Lawns even more. After checking the quality, Lawns felt relieved that he could safely house his cattle.

This abandoned military camp was actually used for less than three months, and most of the buildings were in good condition. After all, the South African War did not last long.

However, it was similar to what Lawns expected. It was already overgrown with weeds, but this was completely satisfactory to the cowboy who had been sleeping on the grassland all year round.

…

There are not many cowboy teams like Lawns exporting livestock to Mozambique. Nowadays, the livestock industry in East Africa has become relatively developed, basically similar to that of the major livestock countries in the Americas.

However, due to the short development history of East Africa, the demand for livestock mainly meets domestic construction first, so East African meat exports are not too strong in the international market.

To say that the country with the fastest growing livestock industry in recent years is Argentina. Backed by British investment and the UK's huge market, Argentina's livestock industry even has a tendency to catch up with the United States to a certain extent.

This is also one of the reasons why Argentina and the United States did not deal with each other in the early days. The two actually had huge conflicts of interest, especially in the livestock industry.

In Argentina's most prosperous era, the entire Europe and the Commonwealth were its beef markets, and it became a high-income country.

Of course, this may not be without British intervention. After all, after the independence of the United States, the United Kingdom has always wanted to support a country in the Americas to form a balance with the United States. Brazil is obviously not the material. On the contrary, Argentina is at the southernmost tip of the Americas, beyond the reach of the Americans.

Of course, Argentina did not deal with the United States in the early days. When Argentina and the United Kingdom clashed in the Falkland Islands, Argentina tried to use the banner of the "Monroe Doctrine" and used the power of the Americans to make the United Kingdom surrender. Retreat, but the United States pretended to be dead, which made the Argentinians very unhappy. It turned out that the so-called "Monroe Doctrine" was just about shouting slogans!

At this point, East Africa is also an emerging animal husbandry country, but it has little conflict with it, because the dairy and meat products from East Africa entering the international market are not large, and they are concentrated in the German region.

Furthermore, the quality of East Africa is slightly inferior, especially the livestock industry in northern pastures is only large in quantity, and if you want to break the situation, you can only wait until the livestock industry in South Africa develops.

However, this is also thanks to the rapid growth of the population in East Africa. Population also means market. At present, the domestic market in East Africa is not yet saturated, which greatly digests excess production capacity.

A country with a small population like Argentina is actually very dangerous. Without the support of the British, Argentina's livestock industry will suffer a devastating blow because it is extremely dependent on the international market.

The United States has no fear of this because its domestic beef consumption market is the largest in the world. Even if other countries compete in terms of size, it can protect its domestic market through tariff barriers.

The economy of East Africa is worse than that of the United States, but its per capita income is considered to be at a medium level in the world, and its meat consumption capacity is considerable. At the same time, there is a large demand for construction in East Africa. When machinery has not been widely promoted and popularized, it is an indispensable substitute.

Especially in the agricultural field, the demand for cattle in East Africa is extremely strong, and large-scale project construction in East Africa also requires these animals to temporarily work for them.

Take the No. 1 State Farm in Saukwe Town, Mozambique, as an example. There are only a dozen tractors, which is obviously far from enough. And now the tractor production capacity in East Africa is relatively limited, which is simply not enough to distribute to farms and plantations across the country. Therefore, at this time, livestock The importance is reflected.

As for the black indigenous people, although they are also very cheap, it is impossible for East Africa to rely entirely on black people for construction. After all, the national policy of East Africa is to eventually "clear out" the indigenous people.

Of course, although in the international market, East Africa's livestock industry cannot currently demonstrate its advantages, it does not mean that it cannot make great achievements in the future.

With the development of electricity technology in recent years, East Africa happens to be a leader in the field of refrigeration and preservation technology, thanks to Linde, the general manager of the Hechingen Electric Power Company, who is the inventor of the world's first refrigerator.

Thanks to the promotion of technical personnel such as Linde, East Africa has maintained its leading position in refrigeration and preservation technology.

At present, some merchant ships in East Africa have already started the construction of cold storage, and East Africa is actively promoting this.

After all, East Africa is a tropical country. The importance of technological products such as refrigerators to East Africa is self-evident. At the same time, many fruits and vegetables in East Africa are mainly sold to Europe. The development of cold and fresh technology will naturally help increase the export volume of East Africa.

At the same time, the demand for cold fresh technology is also very strong in other departments in East Africa, such as hospitals, where many medicines need to be stored in freezers.

A typical example is snake venom serum. There are many venomous snakes in East Africa. The promotion of freezers has enabled some hospitals in remote areas of East Africa to ensure that the injured can be treated.

In the future, cold-fresh technology will naturally be an indispensable weapon to promote the export of dairy and meat products in East Africa. Therefore, with the support of science and technology, the future prospects of East Africa's livestock industry exports are still relatively optimistic.

Of course, the biggest problem in East Africa's livestock industry is the serious lack of technology accumulation, especially in species cross-breeding. It will take time to cultivate excellent livestock breeds suitable for East Africa.

This requires time to accumulate and cannot be changed in East Africa in a short time. However, with the explosion of talents in East Africa, we can try to make up for this in the future.
