Chapter 1292 Automated Food Processing Factory

Huge sunflower cakes are loaded into trucks one by one, and then transported to the huge drying yard at the head of the farm.

Zhong Xiaoling on the side relayed the introduction: "About 80% of these sunflower seeds are used to squeeze sunflower oil.

Our sunflower oil is a pure natural, pollution-free, non-GMO food, and with the brand operation of our Shale Farm, our sunflower oil is currently considered a high-end non-staple food product in the market.

For the remaining 20%, we will directly correspond to a nut processing factory here. They buy it, fry it and pack it into bags, and then sell it all over the country.

However, due to the strong market demand for sunflower oil, we have reduced or even stopped the supply of sunflower seeds to nut processing factories.

This year, basically all the sunflower seeds have been crushed. Despite this, the market demand is still very strong.

Therefore, we plan to expand the scale of sunflower planting next year, from the current 100,000 mu to 150,000 mu, or 10,000 hectares. "

Hearing Zhong Xiaoling's words, Xu Xiaoya nodded with a satisfied expression: "No problem, let alone 10,000 hectares, even if it is several times larger, we can still eat it.

The sunflower oil produced by our farm is very pure, even though the price is much higher than similar products on the market, the sales are still booming.

So I agree with the expansion of planting scale with both hands. "

After speaking, Xu Xiaoya looked at Wu Hao.

After rushing back to the sunflower planting area, Wu Hao and the others came to several huge drying yards at the head of the farm. All kinds of food crops are spread on these drying grounds, including corn, rice, and sunflower cakes being poured.

On the huge drying yard, several small automated equipment are constantly turning and drying the grain.

On the side of the drying yard, several working robots are gathering to recycle the dried grains, bag them, and transport them to the warehouse for storage.

Everyone then came to a warehouse. In this huge warehouse, it was divided into multiple granaries. There are various sensors in the granary, which can monitor the real-time status of different grains stored in these granaries, such as temperature. , humidity and so on.

When needed, specialized equipment will release the grain in these granaries into bags, then process it, and then transport it to the inland market for sale.

After walking around the warehouse, everyone came to several processing factories here.

The first thing they came to was naturally the sugar beet processing factory.

The entire processing plant is not completely automated, unmanned, in fact there are still some employees. Because although the entire production process of beet sugar can be fully automated, in order to prevent some unexpected situations, people still need to be on duty.

Looking at the sugar beet that was constantly tumbling and cleaning in the drum, Du Xiuming introduced it to everyone with a smile.

These sugar beets harvested from the field will be cleaned first to wash off the dirt on them. On the one hand, this is to ensure hygiene and prevent pollution, and on the other hand, it is also to prepare for the following processing.

While talking, Du Xiuming greeted: "Everyone, this way please."

“These beets are rinsed and then put on a conveyor belt, where they are julienned and juiced.

These dry and thick beet juices will be dissolved in purified water, and then fully stirred to extract all the sugar in the beets.

Immediately, they began to filter the beet juice solution to filter out the coriander waste inside.

These waste dregs of coriander, as well as beet stems and leaves, green heads, tail roots, etc., can be used as raw materials for brewing, extracting betaine, etc., and are high-quality juicy feed.

Of course, these are all accessories.

Next, the beet juice solution that has been filtered multiple times will be cleaned to remove the non-sugar substances contained in it. If it is not removed in time, it will affect the quality of sugar. And once the sugar thickens and crystallizes, it can be difficult to remove.

Then there are the last four important steps before making sugar, namely evaporation, crystallization, nectar separation, and drying.

The excess water is evaporated, then the sugar is allowed to crystallize, the nectar is separated to extract all the sugar from the waste residue, and then it is dried to become the finished sugar. "

Du Xiuming pointed to the bags of white sugar coming off the production line, and said with a smile: "The sugar we produce is of excellent quality, and it is now listed as a strategic material by the Corps for storage.

The remaining white sugar will also be dispersed to various markets. Although the price is strictly controlled and cannot be raised, it is relatively stable. "

Wu Hao nodded when he heard the words and asked, "What is the gross profit rate of the whole process from planting to picking sugar?"

Hearing Wu Hao's question, everyone immediately showed interest. Du Xiuming was a little embarrassed by this, and then looked at Zhong Xiaoling who was on the side.

Zhong Xiaoling understood and replied generously to everyone: "At present, the overall gross profit rate of our beet sugar industry is about 45%. After deducting a series of costs, the net profit can be maintained at 25%. to twenty-eight.

Although the return is lower than other projects, it is stable, which is why we choose it. "

Wu Hao nodded and said: "Comparatively speaking, it's not bad. Let's go, let's go to the next project."

Seeing that Wu Hao didn't express his position, nor did he say good or bad, Du Xiuming and Zhong Xiaoling couldn't help but murmured in their hearts. The two looked at each other in agreement, and then followed.

Next, under the leadership of Du Xiuming, Wu Hao and the others first inspected the sunflower seed oil press factory, and then came to a food processing factory, to be precise, a tomato processing factory.

Because it is a food processing factory, it is more troublesome to enter. After everyone changed their clothes and disinfected, they finally entered the automated tomato sauce production factory.

Like other video processing factories, these harvested tomatoes will be cleaned, and because they are food, the cleaning is particularly strict.

After washing, the tomatoes go on a conveyor belt where they are blown dry. Then go to the sorting area, where the automated equipment will sort and remove some substandard tomatoes.

For example, those green tomatoes that are not ripe, and those that are damaged and those that are not cleaned well.

Finally, the tomatoes that have been screened will go to the preparation area. Then these prepared tomatoes will be put into the machine to be crushed and stirred into a puree, and then proceed to the next step.

After some preparation, these prepared tomato sauces will be packed into various prepared containers according to various specifications, then packaged, pasteurized, and finally labeled.
