Rebirth on the top of the mountain, my herding career

The moisture content of silage needs to be maintained between 65% and 75%, and the minimum cannot be less than 55%. Various auxiliary materials, such as trace amounts of urea, a little sugar, formic acid, etc., must also be added in sequence, including warm water.

Dissolved lactic acid bacteria.

Qin Xifeng didn't have time to conduct experiments and comparisons, so he finally chose to trust Yu Beichen and used the type of lactic acid bacteria that Yu Beichen said was most suitable for low-temperature fermentation.

The silage is compacted with the help of animal power. This must be ensured, otherwise too much air will remain inside, which will cause mildew.

Five guillotines are started at the same time, and the corn platycodon is crushed very quickly. Making silage is important to do it in one go to avoid oxidation and deterioration of the raw materials.

After all the crushed materials are put into the silage pit, after repeated compaction, they must be covered with plastic film and covered with soil for sealing.

I was busy until the moon was high.

The silage produced for the first time has entered the storage stage and is only waiting for fermentation to be completed before it can be taken out in batches to feed livestock.

Whether silage can be made successfully depends on whether the fermentation process is qualified.

This process takes about 25 to 30 days. At that time, you can judge by smelling the silage.

Of course, there is a faster way to judge, but it is a bit unbelievable to say.

After finishing work, Qin Xifeng treated everyone to a meal, and then went to bed. He had been busy from morning to night these days, and he was really tired.

"bite!"

"Event: Trial production of silage"

"Event progress: 100%"

...

The reminder that the event was completed came suddenly, catching Qin Xifeng off guard.

It took him a while to figure out the whole story... It turned out that the system determined that the facilities, raw materials, additives, lactic acid bacteria, and processes for making silage this time were all up to standard.

As long as there is no external damage, this batch of silage will definitely succeed.

This is the significance of trial production of silage. The correct method and process are the most important. Based on this experience, success is guaranteed when making silage in the future.

“This saves a lot of time!”

Naturally, Qin Xifeng had nothing to be unhappy about. With the system's endorsement, this method of making silage could be fixed.

Of course, what's even happier is that you can receive the reward immediately.

"Rewards: fermented lactic acid bacteria (4 boxes), satellite TV receiver (1 set), walkie-talkies (2 units), Kirk high-quality ewes (6), cash (800 yuan)."

"Special reward: Proficient in animal husbandry (intermediate), overall physical quality increased by 6%"

...

Qin Xifeng was not sleepy anymore and immediately received the reward.

Fermented lactic acid bacteria, satellite TV receivers, walkie-talkies and cash immediately appeared in the station.

In addition, a list of items is essential.

Four boxes of fermented lactic acid bacteria are suitable for different silage raw materials and mixed raw materials. The method of use is the same, but the efficiency will be much improved.

A satellite TV receiver is actually a "pot", also commonly known as an antenna.

The walkie-talkie is the same model as the previous two. Qin Xifeng originally planned to buy one and give it to Gu Lidan, so there is no need for trouble now.

The cash reward is 800 yuan, which is the same as the previous highest reward amount.

Kirk's high-quality ewes are an improved breed and are in the best condition for pregnancy. This has a very positive significance for further improving the quality of the sheep flock.

According to the consistent style of the system, these 6 Kirk ewes will be delivered on a selected day.

The special rewards are quite satisfactory and there are no surprises.

“The biggest highlights of this reward are 4 boxes of lactic acid bacteria and 6 high-quality Kirk ewes, and everything else is just a bonus.”

Qin Xifeng is still very happy. This time the system has determined in advance that the "trial production of silage" is successful, and the reward will be received immediately. Is he still very dissatisfied?

It's just that his original plan was to wait until the final results of silage came out before teaching this method to others.

I haven’t seen the results yet, so I’m not very convincing!

Qin Xifeng got up, packed his belongings and cash, and then fell asleep.

The next morning.

He went to the silage cellar again to check whether the top layer of compacted soil was tight, and then sent flour and clear oil to the young people who helped.

Zhang Meng and Radil were naturally the most important. They worked very hard this time and usually had to take care of the livestock manure treatment tank, alfalfa fields, etc. Qin Xifeng would not treat them badly.

"Mengzi, Radil, do you two remember?"

At noon, Gulidan came over to make pilaf, and Qin Xifeng brought Zhang Meng and Radil over to have lunch.

After dinner, he explained the technical points of making silage to the two of them in detail, and Gulidan also listened attentively.

"Brother Xifeng, we remember."

Zhang Meng and Radil only have mechanical memories. After all, they have read less books and it is a bit difficult to understand slightly deeper questions.

But fortunately, making silage can be carried out according to the standard process. As long as you can remember it, the actual operation is not difficult.

Qin Xifeng is now consciously cultivating these two guys. After a period of observation, he has found that they can be trusted.

"By the way, how is Tiejun's purchase of live sheep?"

Only then did Qin Xifeng think of Wang Tiejun. He was very busy recently and didn't pay attention to the other party, who didn't live with him either.

"Brother Tiejun has gone back. He said he would come back in two days."

Zhang Meng introduced many acquaintances to Wang Tiejun, and Wang Tiejun came to buy live sheep. The price was reasonable, and things went smoothly.

Therefore, Wang Tiejun drove the sheep back to the countryside early yesterday morning. After processing this batch of live sheep, he would come back again.

"Well, that's it for today, you go back first."

Qin Xifeng sent Zhang Meng and Radil away, and then went with Gulidan to do a health check on her livestock.

The physical condition of livestock and the hygiene of livestock pens must be monitored frequently.

"Gulidan, everything is normal, no problem found."

Qin Xifeng worked for an hour and said with a smile.

"That's good! Xifeng, there is something I want to hear your opinion on..."

Gu Lidan just came home and brought a pot of milk tea. Seeing that Qin Xifeng had finished his business, he quickly poured him a bowl.

While the other party was drinking milk tea, she said something.

Gulidan's sister-in-law had a relative who worked in the county. The county was planning to reopen the "Stone City" attraction recently and wanted to recruit some guides, so she asked her if she would like to go.

"The guides are not interesting. They are exposed to the sun and wind all day long. If you encounter tourists who are not high-quality, you may get angry. Why go there?"

Qin Xifeng shook his head and gave his answer.

"Well, if you say you don't want to go, you won't go."

Gulidan couldn't help but smile. It seemed that he rarely saw Qin Xifeng like this.

"Let's go back and train the little border collies. These little guys eat and drink well all day long, and they grow very fast, so they need to be trained well."

Qin Xifeng didn't hesitate and took Gulidan to his yurt.

Although Border Collies have a high IQ, they still need to be trained from an early age, otherwise they will become useless.

Gulidan liked this feeling very much. She accompanied Qin Xifeng to train the little border collie until dinner time, then reluctantly left.
