Chapter 1668 Invasive Species: Spartina alterniflora
"I'll contact you and ask. Mr. Jiang, please wait for me for a while."
Chen Yutong was embarrassed. She felt like she didn't know anything at all.
Seeing Chen Yutong hurriedly ran out to make a phone call, Jiang Xiaoye felt that he had bullied the girl a little too much. He had to do this one after another, so he didn't make others cry.
No wonder Jiang Wu couldn't bear to find an assistant.
About ten minutes later, Chen Yutong came back in a hurry.
"Mr. Jiang, the invasive species you mentioned does exist. On the west coast of Lunan City, it is Spartina alterniflora!"
Really?
Jiang Xiaoye was overjoyed.
"Spartina alterniflora? It can't be rice grass, right?" Jiang Xiaoye's first reaction was that it was rice grass. Its original name was Spartina alterniflora. As for rice grass, I don't know if locusts would eat it.
Spartina is an invasive species and its proliferation is not surprising.
"No, Spartina alterniflora was introduced to my country in 1979 because the previously introduced Spartina was too short, had almost no yield, and could not be harvested. However, in recent years, it has been classified as an invasive species. They In the eyes, it has affected the ecological environment, destroyed the habitat of coastal organisms, imaged tidal flat farming, and blocked waterways, affecting
They disturb ships leaving the port and are more annoying than Spartina grass. What's more, they have affected seawater exchange, seriously reduced water quality, and caused the disappearance of many salt marsh plants, especially on the west coast of Lunan, where Spartina alterniflora
It has completely covered the west coast, and the beaches there are all deserted, and the sea water has almost deteriorated and cannot be exchanged normally."
Chen Yutong finished speaking in one breath, looked at Jiang Xiaoye and said: "The leader just said that if Mr. Jiang can solve this problem, 500 acres of area on the west coast can be allocated for Mr. Jiang's breeding, and the use period is twenty years."
Five hundred acres!
And it’s still twenty years!
When Jiang Xiaoye mentioned this problem, the first reaction of the leaders above was to solve the problem in the future. Spartina alterniflora seriously harms the ecological environment, and Spartina alterniflora is the only coastal plant included in it. You can imagine how many
serious!
"Lunan, West Hainan, is about five hundred miles away from me. It's a bit far, but it's not a problem." Jiang Xiaoye thought about the locust plague in Africa. The locusts can reach a speed of 150 kilometers a day. The locusts they raised by themselves can travel in half a day.
It is estimated that there will be no problem in arriving there in time, and there will be a divine monster leading the way.
Just eat or not?
What if it flies away and they don’t like to eat it?
"Does Spartina alterniflora have any natural enemies of insects?" Not only is it something that insects don't like to eat, many plants have the ability to protect themselves. Jiang Xiaoye knows this very well.
"Yes, the herbivorous cicada is the natural enemy of Spartina alterniflora. A high density of cicadas can kill more than 90% of Spartina alterniflora. However, there are very few cicadas in our country.
It is impossible to reach one thousandth, and if the light cicada causes a disaster, it will also affect the ecological growth of other plants."
"Okay, then there is no problem!" Jiang Xiaoye nodded and said: "In the afternoon, you will be responsible for sending the ducks to Laoba. Contact the local area there. I will go there with the locust swarm. The area is very large?"
Jiang Xiaoye didn't care about giving away hundreds of acres of beach land. He didn't have time to manage it.
What he was curious about was how widespread Spartina alterniflora was.
"It's very big. Almost the whole west coast is covered. Not only the west coast, but also in the sea water of the west coast, Spartina alterniflora is also overflowing in the ocean. This is why it cannot be removed. There are many in the sea."
"That really affects the ecological environment."
Jiang Xiaoye was looking forward to it. Will his army of locusts eat this so-called Spartina alterniflora?
Spartina alterniflora?
Chen Yutong did not stay for breakfast and went to work again. The little girl was full of fighting spirit. Jiang Xiaoye knew from Jiang Wu that this little girl was the granddaughter of a big shot, and she was very favored.
He actually sent it to me to run errands...
Of course, many of his things need to be kept secret, just like Jiang Wu did before.
It was rare that he had a leisurely day today and had nothing to worry about. Jiang Xiaoye began to study bamboo tube rice dumplings. He originally planned to make them for three hours, but after two hours, Jiang Xiaoye started making them.
Li Lan also helped.
"People use rice dumpling leaves to cover the lid, not bamboo. It's leftover from the last time I made rice dumplings." Jiang Yunshan brought the soaked green rice dumpling leaves.
The little dumpling sat next to it and watched eagerly, wondering what delicious food it was.
He wanted to push Jiang Xiaoye with his paw and signal for him to taste it, but Jiang Xiaoye ignored it.
Put the soaked rice into the bamboo tube and pat it from time to time to make the rice grains firm until it is completely filled, leaving a little space because the rice will expand.
Zong leaves wrap the opening and cotton thread wraps around it.
"Stop using the pressure cooker, just set up a pot and cook. There is so much firewood, and the pressure cooker can't fit in it." Seeing Li Lan trying to use the pressure cooker, my grandfather quickly stopped him.
“You’re not enough to be surrounded by dogs and bears when you’re setting up a pot!”
Li Lan signaled to Xiao Hei who ran out of the room. These guys would gather around when they saw the pot being set up.
"Woof!"
Don't set up the pot. Mr. Xiao Hei can't eat anything in the past two days. Why do you set up the pot?
Xiao Hei is a little sad.
The pressure cooker couldn't fit in, so we finally set up the pot outside the door. The little brown bear came over very intelligently, snarling around the pot, and the little dumpling followed and sat on the ground, holding a bamboo and chewing on it.
Jiang Xiaoye washed twenty eggs and put in some black rice dumpling leaves. The eggs cooked by the rice dumpling leaves tasted very good, with the fragrance of rice and a great taste.
Add water, cover the pot, and turn on the fire!
Chen Cheng came and was called by the old village chief. After all, the work in Yushan Village was important. As for the Wanwu Group, Secretary Sun was responsible for everything.
Xiaohua came to play with Taotao, and saw Jiang Xiaoye lighting the fire, so she came over to take a look out of curiosity.
"Brother Xiaoye, do you cook meat?"
Quickly wiping her saliva, Xiaohua sniffed her nose, but there was no smell of meat!
"No, it's a goose stewed in an iron pot. I stewed your goose." Jiang Xiaoye gestured to the big pot. The goose was Xiaohua's treasure.
"Liar, I just saw the goose in the water!"
Xiaohua didn't believe it at all. When she saw Taotao coming out, she greeted her and started playing together.
"Xiao Ye, do you think a cultural village is feasible? Our Jingquan County has never had its own culture, and it is not as good as some counties with profound cultural heritage. If there can be a cultural village, these shortcomings will be completely made up for in the future.
