Chapter 36 Ling Yinong's anxiety
"Yes, Agaricus bisporus is an industry, but the price should not be like this. We, Hu Jian, also have mushroom farmers, and the price is much higher than this. The price per pound is at least more than two yuan."
Ling Yinong said anxiously, thinking that if the price cannot be increased, not only will the Yuquanying lose money, but I am afraid that the Agaricus bisporus growers in other parts of the country will be involved.
"Professor Ling, don't worry, calm down, there will definitely be a solution to the matter, but it's not the time yet."
"What's the solution? If you don't raise the purchase price, you can't let the mushroom farmers lose this way, right?"
Ling Yinong looked at Zhao Shucheng in front of him, waiting for Zhao Shucheng to give him a reasonable explanation.
Zhao Shucheng looked at the other party and said, "I know, but the Agaricus bisporus industry is still very incomplete. I have told you before that this thing has a large output and a small market."
"At that time, I wanted you to open up the sales channels outside so that we can sell Agaricus bisporus no matter how many Agaricus bisporus. But now the situation is that the surrounding cities have long been saturated, and many counties are still promoting Agaricus bisporus breeding in rural areas."
"Well, it's not that others can't raise Agaricus bisporus, but now the surrounding market cannot take over more mushrooms. If you can't find a new way out, then the mushroom farmers' mushrooms will be smashed into their hands."
"The industry of Agaricus bisporus is not only about planting Agaricus bisporus, but also about sales, transportation and processing industries. However, it takes time for these industries to really take shape. You cannot say that you violate the laws of nature and let Eren pay for this. Only when the entire industry is running healthily can you move it for a long time. The current situation is that supply is oversupply. It is difficult to eat such a large number of mushrooms around Yinchuan. Even if Eren warehouses try hard to stuff them, they cannot fill up so many mushrooms."
"The current situation requires increasing the price of mushrooms first. There are only two ways. That is to increase revenue and reduce expenditure."
Ling Yinong asked curiously: "How to talk about opening up the source? How can we reduce the cost?"
"The meaning of open source is very simple, that is, we must constantly explore the market and sell the Agaricus bisporus here, not only in Ningxia, but also in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shanghai, and even the economically developed areas along the coast. Let these Agaricus bisporus enter new markets, but just providing raw materials for Agaricus bisporus, such open source is far from enough."
"So this requires a second open source method, which is the reprocessing of Agaricus bisporus. Because only the reprocessed mushrooms can be stored for a longer time, and thus the price of mushrooms can be maintained. There are many operations in this area, such as slice drying, processing canned food, etc. But all of this has a prerequisite. Before there is no new sales channel, the scale of mushroom planting here cannot continue to expand. Well, what I said just now, professor, can you understand why, right?"
Ling Yinong thought about it and understood what Zhao Shucheng meant. Before there was no new sales channel, if the scale of Agaricus bisporus continued to expand, it would be difficult to maintain the current price, let alone the price increase.
"The second is to reduce the cost. Everyone knows what to do, which is to reduce the number of people growing mushrooms. As long as the number of mushrooms is controlled, the species is rare and expensive. This is the same in all industries, and the price will definitely rise at that time. Besides, there are many people growing mushrooms now, but the quality is uneven. Good and bad are all."
"Let's not talk about others, just talk about the mushrooms grown by Li Dayou in the Russian village, but the five-squat uncle is a little worse. I think not everyone can grow good mushrooms. Some people have talent in farming, while others have talent in breeding. Just say, the five-squat uncle, his chickens grow faster than others' families, and the same is true for earthworms."
"So my idea is to let some people who are not suitable for mushroom raising to do other jobs, even if they are allowed to work in the processing factory, so that all the mushrooms in our Yuquanying camp will be of good quality and the prices will definitely be higher than those in other places. It can also promote more people to buy mushrooms and expand new markets, rather than shrinking the market because of the uneven quality."
Ling Yinong thought about it for a moment and didn't want to take over this method.
"No, do you know what this means? It means that one-third, or even half of the people in the entire Yuquan camp, and even the surrounding counties and cities, will give up planting Agaricus bisporus, but they have already borrowed loans to build greenhouses and cannot bear such debts. Moreover, if they demolish the greenhouses for mushroom farming and turn to negotiate industries, then the promotion of Agaricus bisporus breeding will be ruined."
"Professor Ling, the situation is not so pessimistic. For those who have loans to raise mushrooms, raising mushrooms is the only way out for them to repay the loan, so they will definitely take it seriously. If you don't want more people to withdraw, all you can do is to let the technicians guide them well so that they can raise mushrooms with good quality, rather than end up failing."
"But to be honest, Professor Ling, this mushroom breeding will be helpful for poverty alleviation in a short period of time, but in the long run, unless it is large-scale breeding, it will not be of much help."
Ling Yinong had a different opinion and said unconvincedly: "Your guess is not a word. Even if it is calculated based on one dollar, the villagers still have income. How can they say that it is not very helpful?"
Zhao Shucheng had long thought that he would say this, and took out the report that he had prepared for him.
"Since the reform and opening up, the national economic level has been rising, especially per capita disposable income. Not to mention other places, Yinchuan City alone has increased twenty times from the previous per capita wage to the current seven or eight hundred yuan. Even if it will not change very quickly in the future, it is possible to increase three or five times in twenty years, right?"
Ling Yinong thought about it for a while and felt that there was no problem with Zhao Shucheng's calculation like this.
Zhao Shucheng continued: "Okay, then based on the per capita salary of 2,000 yuan per month, how much does it take to grow mushrooms to reach this level? You can plant mushrooms twice a year, and each two-month picking period, the yield of a shed is about 4,800-8,000 kilograms. If you really get rid of poverty, the price of mushrooms will cost six yuan per kilogram. But Professor Ling, do you think this is possible?"

Mushroom poverty alleviation can only alleviate part of it. What should we do if the remaining gap is done? It can only allow farmers to build larger greenhouses, but this will lead to a problem, that is, the output of mushrooms is more, will the price be lower?"
"So simply growing mushrooms can only help some people, and it is impossible for everyone to rely on this method to get rid of poverty. So we have to find a way to attract others from the matter of growing mushrooms. Mushroom processing plants are one way, and there are also related supporting factories, printing factories, packaging factories, and even transportation companies."
"Now mushroom farmers can rely on growing mushrooms to get rid of poverty for a short time, but more importantly, how to prevent them from falling back into poverty after they get rid of poverty."
Shuihua has been listening since Zhao Shucheng started talking, and felt that Zhao Shucheng's thoughts were really advanced, and his eyes began to shine.
Ling Yinong was also thinking about what Zhao Shucheng said. Although he wanted to say that his mushrooms could cost six yuan, he also knew that this was unrealistic. Because if it reached this price, people who raise mushrooms would probably not only farmers around Xihaigu, but farmers in other places would also raise mushrooms, so the price would definitely be reduced.
"The reason I built a processing factory is to solve the problem of too many mushrooms and concentrated on the market. Only after deep processing can mushrooms be sold at high prices, and it will not be too many fresh mushrooms on the market and the price will not be subject to others."
"I definitely can't do anything about reducing expenses. This is something the court considered. But u will increase the requirements for the acquisition of Agaricus bisporus. Those bad dates must not be needed. This can be regarded as a lesson for mushroom farmers. If they are not suitable for it, they will slowly withdraw from the market. But this matter must be a long-term process. During this period, Professor Ling, you need to study other poverty alleviation methods, such as mushrooms, matsutake mushrooms, agaricus, and purple mushrooms, so that everyone will not have to focus on Agaricus bisporus breeding."
"Only after the product is enriched, the price will increase, and there will be no concentrated scene. Besides, Professor Ling, you are not studying the mushroom grass that prevents wind and sand, but you can actually study the parasitic problems of plants."
"Well, I know a drug in the desert, called Cistanche. This is a parasitic plant that parasitizes under the desert saxony tree. This thing is known as desert ginseng, so it is very expensive. If this thing can become a symbiotic relationship with your mushroom grass, then I think it means more."
"There are also many woody mushrooms that can grow in windproof forests. For example, birch, pine mushroom, pine mushroom, pine mushroom, pine mushroom, etc. This can not only help prevent wind and sand, but also have economic benefits, but also allow more people to invest in afforestation."
Ling Yinong did not expect that not only did not persuade Zhao Shucheng, he was fooled by him to study Musheng.
"Of course, Professor Ling, I know you definitely don't have the heart to study these things now. What you can do now is helping villagers expand sales, especially sales issues outside the province. We are all ordinary people, and others will not listen to us at all. But you are very familiar with Director Wu. You can ask him about this problem, maybe they can help us solve this problem."
"As for me, after my cold storage is fully stocked, the processing plant can start construction. At that time, it will definitely be able to digest a lot of Agaricus bisporus, but you can only rely on you to make the sales of fresh mushrooms."
Ling Yinong sighed and said, "Okay, it seems that I'm too anxious. You're right. I don't know anything about market experience and sales, so I'm a little bit taken for granted."
