Chapter 359 Population, Genes
After all the delicious food was finally served, Gao Yiyi and the other two finally understood what Wu Qingmeng meant by what he had said before!
"You can refuse anything, but you can never refuse a meal!"
Looking at the various and dazzling dishes in front of them and feeling the appetizing taste in their mouths, Gao Yiyi and the other three moved faster than the other and began to pick up the food frantically!
Most of the day passed and no one spoke much. Everyone was focused on eating!
Zou Huiming has finished his fourth bowl of rice!
He even had the illusion of returning to high school, when it seemed as if he could never feel full no matter how much he ate!
Gao Yiyi and Wang Yuhan's stomachs were full at this time, as if they hadn't eaten so much in years!
Gu Chang put down his bowl contentedly, looking at everyone's satisfied expressions, and was secretly proud in his heart: "Hehe, I successfully captured a few more guys, they won't be able to run away in the future..."
He immediately took out his phone and posted the delicious photo he had just taken on his Moments, with a caption: "The first meal of the new year, on the road of struggle, how can we let our stomachs become empty? How can we be young without the company of delicious food?"
"My friends, let me spoil you. Not only will you be well fed, but you will also be fed better!"
Less than ten seconds after the circle of friends was sent, Gu Chang's phone began to vibrate frantically and a message alert popped up on the screen.
"Why don't you wait for me!"
This news comes from Wang Xianye!
After Wang Xianye returned to his hometown for the Chinese New Year, he reported to the school in advance.
All in all, he hasn't been to school for nearly half a year. People who don't know him might really mistakenly think that he has already graduated!
Seeing Wang Xianye's quick reaction, Gu Chang felt secretly proud.
The purpose of posting that circle of friends has been successfully achieved.
So, Gu Chang put down his phone contentedly, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
……
Early the next morning, Gu Chang arrived at the pig farm!
Now, Gu Chang has almost made all the arrangements for the road construction and Zhumao Village tourist area, and there are dedicated people in charge, so he doesn't need to worry about it in the short term.
Now, Gu Chang will focus on the extinct pigs in the pig farm, conduct a systematic study on them, collect information, and hand it over to his teacher, Wang Linghai!
Many people are curious. Since some pig breeds are naturally good and some are bad, why don't we eliminate some inferior pig breeds and only raise high-quality pig breeds?
For example, these extinct pig breeds, should they be eliminated just because they are inferior breeds?
Actually, it’s not like that!
As a country with a 9000-year history of pig farming, China once had the most varieties of breeding pigs in the world, with more than 100 native pig breeds!
These pig breeds have been screened and bred for thousands of years to become excellent pig breeds suitable for local characteristics!
The main reason for the extinction and reduction in numbers of native pig breeds is the good economic benefits of foreign pig breeds!
On the other hand, once a disease, such as swine fever, breaks out, a large number of pigs in an entire region may die.
my country is a major livestock-raising country, and its pigs, poultry and eggs have always been ranked first in the world. However, in terms of modern optimized breeding, China started later than other countries and is currently lagging behind.
Our current pig breeds mainly rely on imports!
Over the past few decades, capital led by Goldman Sachs Group of the United States has been laying out the mid- and downstream industrial chain of pig farming in my country.
They have invested huge amounts of money to acquire many pig farms in my country. The operation of capital has led to the introduction of a large number of American breeding pigs, causing the extinction of 8 native pig species in my country and 25 species being on the verge of extinction!
If we rely on foreign breeding for a long time, on the one hand, it will not conform to the actual situation of our industry, and on the other hand, it will be detrimental to the food supply security of our citizens.
On the other hand, the richer the species, the stronger the ability to deal with various diseases!
For example, some time ago, the African swine fever that caused headaches for the whole world was found in China's Lanshibai No. 2 pigs, which had obvious resistance to the African swine fever virus.
Pig No. 2 is also very resistant to other infectious diseases. If other pig breeds are used to crossbreed with Pig No. 2, they will also be resistant to African swine fever!
This gene is the most valuable part of the pig breed!
Therefore, in order to protect native pig breeds and ensure food safety, we should strengthen the protection and breeding of native pig breeds.
This is also the reason why Gu Chang attaches so much importance to these extinct pig breeds!
Once they become extinct, it means that the excellent genes cultivated in these pig breeds for thousands of years will disappear!
The excellent genes in these pigs will be the best hybrid materials for us to independently breed excellent pig breeds in the future!
