Capítulo 615: Chapter 613
Chapter 613 Work Report
The first East African Food Festival was held quite informally, and the dishes were very ordinary, with almost no innovation. However, the purpose of the East African government was more to promote food safety awareness through this food festival.
This can be seen from the ingredients provided by the East African government. Most of them are very common ingredients in East Africa.
At the same time, there are so-called "nutritional" experts who come to educate the people in East Africa. Just like Western capitalists "hype" desserts, when it comes to East African "experts" it becomes that sugar intake must be in moderation, and excessive sugar intake may Leading to...a whole host of diseases.
This is contrary to the blind pursuit of sugar by the world's media and interest groups in the 19th century. In fact, the current production of sugar crop cultivation in East Africa is not an exaggeration compared with countries at the same latitude. However, it is foreseeable that East Africa's sugar production will also reach a level in the future. Quite an exaggeration.
Ernst just doesn't want East Africa to become a country like the United States, with excess sugar in the human body, so he should set a tone for them in advance.
In any case, the expansion of planting will continue, because now the world's demand for sugar is very strong, large-scale planting is also profitable, and industrial production will also consume a large part, such as the military industry.
If he had not been unable to compile it, Ernst would have come up with a Dietary Guide for East African Nationals to guide the eating habits of East African nationals.
However, this is the first East African Food Festival after all, and the content and program are very simple, but it has also attracted widespread attention.
It doesn't matter if the people of East Africa don't pay attention. After all, the important way for them to understand news about East Africa is through newspapers, either through government announcements or hearsay.
In fact, Ernst didn't care much about this food festival, but Constantine and Prince Carl were very interested.
Ernst is now listening to the government's work report on the achievements and effects of water conservancy construction in East Africa over the past decade.
"In the fifteen years from 1865 to last year, we in East Africa have renovated more than 23,000 kilometers of rivers, of which local projects accounted for more than 80% and high-standard projects accounted for about 20%. More than 60% will be completed within five years, which has greatly improved domestic river navigation, irrigation and flood control conditions."
"Constructed and strengthened more than 5,780 kilometers of river embankments, constructed 300 million cubic meters of earthwork, excavated 763 kilometers of canals, 1.8 million small water conservancy projects, and built 20 large water conservancy projects with a revenue of more than 10,000 acres. Seven seats."
"The effective and fully irrigated area of cultivated land nationwide has increased to 35 million hectares, mainly concentrated in the Great Lakes region, coastal plain production areas, inland plateau production areas, and parts of Matabele Province."
Effectiveness and adequacy are the key points. If these two qualifiers are removed, the scale of developed cultivated land in East Africa will double. However, many of the remaining cultivated lands may still rely on the weather due to incomplete water conservancy facilities.
The large-scale development of East Africa still has a long way to go for the African continent, which has been absent from school for thousands of years. The United States, which is also a major agricultural country, has spent hundreds of years to achieve today's agricultural achievements, but East Africa does not It may take only a dozen years to complete a journey that other countries have completed in hundreds or even thousands of years.
"Last year, the grain yield per mu in a single season in irrigated areas across the country increased by about 31 kilograms, or about 247 kilograms, compared with ten years ago, and the construction of water conservancy facilities played an important role in this."
The increase in grain production is definitely related to the construction of water conservancy projects in East Africa, but it is not the only factor. It includes the promotion of scientific planting technology, the improvement of the performance of agricultural tools, and the results of East Africa overcoming various setbacks to correct chaos.
After all, East Africa is a completely unfamiliar land to East Africans. The climate, soil and precipitation of this land are completely different from those of Eurasia. The simplest example is the timing, size, frequency, etc. of the rainy season in various parts of East Africa, which all need to be explored by the East African government, agricultural experts, meteorological experts, farmers and other parties.
In the early days of East Africa, production reductions and harvest failures often occurred due to misjudgment of the timing or scale of the rainy season. However, it took East Africans more than ten years to clearly understand the patterns and changes.
Handwater conservancy construction is a stabilizer and catalyst for agricultural development in East Africa. It reduces the impact of the natural environment on agriculture and makes an important contribution to increasing stable grain production and income in East Africa.
"In addition to food crops, cash crop planting areas have also benefited a lot. Last year, 1.3 million hectares of new cash crop areas were added, and the national cash crop planting area reached more than 23 million hectares. With the advancement of water conservancy facility construction, , more places can be turned into fertile farmland in the future, especially in the northern and inland plateau production areas."
"And with the improvement of water conservancy facilities, some land that could only be planted for one or two seasons in previous years can be planted for one more season. Therefore, the area of food cultivation in East Africa has not increased much in recent years, and it can keep up with the population growth rate."
"As of 1880, we still had more room to adjust and build the water conservancy foundation in East Africa. Especially in the past three years, the field of water conservancy construction in East Africa has been effectively developed, which is more than the previous ten years combined. As time goes by, we are optimistic that we will be able to complete the basic farmland and water conservancy construction projects in East Africa within ten years."
Well, Ernst is quite satisfied with this speed. It is not easy for a young country like East Africa to achieve this effect.
As for the ten years mentioned by my subordinates, that is just a rough foundation. With the passage of time and the advancement of science and technology, all the goals pursued in East Africa will definitely undergo huge changes.
Ernst: "The national water conservancy construction project has just got on the right track. However, thanks to the accumulation of the past ten years, the conditions in East Africa are now much better than before. This is why we can further transform the natural environment in East Africa."
After all, world-class projects like the construction of East African water conservancy projects require huge amounts of manpower, material and financial resources, as well as sufficient preparation time.
In terms of manpower, one is that East Africa has realized the "household establishment" of black people, which has made up for the major gap in slave labor. The other is the vigorous growth of the immigrant population in East Africa. If the immigrant population in East Africa is still at the level of one million, even if East Africa adopts With the efforts of the whole country, it is extremely difficult to do just this one thing.
Once the immigrant population in East Africa exceeds 10 million, East Africa can truly concentrate its efforts on major tasks, such as ensuring the simultaneous development of East Africa in multiple fields while ensuring agricultural planting.
Agricultural development has provided a guarantee for East Africa to launch large-scale national projects. Otherwise, East Africa would not be able to solve the problem of labor rations alone. At the same time, agricultural development has solved a large part of the funding gap in East Africa.
At the same time, various projects in East Africa have contributed to the development and value of East African agriculture, all of which have been completed in the past ten years.
The accumulation of more than ten years has enabled East Africa to complete a breakthrough from quantitative change to qualitative change. As stated in the report, the construction volume of water conservancy projects in East Africa in the past three years is greater than the amount of projects accumulated in the previous ten years.
And now it is growing at a considerable rate every year, quickly filling the gap in this field in East Africa, making the penetration rate of water conservancy facilities in East Africa reach normal national standards, and has even surpassed many countries in South America.
