A Mid-level (Middle-aged) Office Worker’s Laid-Back Industrial Revolution in Another World
Episode 1588: Talk about agriculture. (No problem with the current situation. )
Everybody stay together.
"Good luck with the ginger.
Uka talks cheeky about the treats Takeo and the others brought.
"No, uh- drink what's in your mouth before you talk.
No one is in a hurry.
Konoha says in disdain.
"Mm-hmm... Zuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.
What I learned from today's work is that this land is fine.
Considering it's in a local city, I'd say it's pretty good.
Feels a little low in nutrients, but the land rice is fine as it is now.
The uka pours the sweets in with tea, and that's what they say.
"Ugh, do you even know how to nourish the soil?
"I don't know.
But if you look at the thickness, length, etc. of the weed roots, you'll know the nutrients of the land.
I may have to improve the soil a little after this year's rice pruning.
Enma and the others told me about green slime aqueous fertilizers and high performance fertilizers combined with rotten soil and leftovers.
I guess this is going to see what's going on.
"Right... right.
Konoha makes a difficult face and nods.
"Yeah, because we also divide what we do and what we don't do with Enma and the others.
First, we need to work on documenting how growth will be affected by giving.
Perhaps not immediately across the realm.
"Really?
Alice says with a little disappointment.
"First the exam.
I asked the Donatos, but it looks like the Elvis family will be running it.
We will not be able to commercially sell the product until we have checked the overall nurturing status and the safety of the harvest.
Well, not that it's a wild slime, but I think it's safe when Hamakaze and Elder Moon Slime work together.
I wonder if permission will go down unless it's at least after fall.
Starting with the vegetable relationship, I think we can use it for wheat, rice and major cereals.
Uka explains to Alice.
"Can't we do it right away..."
"I know it's sad to secure food because of the way it is, but we need to establish safety.
It will take some time because this time we are going to use fertilizer from Demon Products, so to speak, slime.
If you're referring to other fertilizers, you can combine existing objects... compost, cow manure or chicken manure. It would be common.
However, it should be difficult to secure large quantities in these times.
When it comes to everything in the realm, it can be a challenge.
"Oh, we're going to run chicken farms in every town in the future.
"Hmm, then chicken shit looks like it's coming out.
I don't want to give too much fertilizer, so I guess I'll have to gradually implement it.
All we have to do is get each farmer to try and make mistakes.
"Really..."
Alice is depressed.
"Alice, it's not gonna be any worse than it is for now.
Harvesting is something I don't think about in the short term, like a year or two... so feel free to wait for the future.
"Yes."
Alice nods slowly.
"The quality improvement is tomatoes and potatoes, so let's expand the yield in terms of what we ask.
Cono, is this good?
"I didn't say anything around here.
Isn't that the best thing if the Elvis family clerks decided to do?
Because of the high consumption, it won't collapse even if it gets somewhat higher.
You think you can do that? "
"It's like hanging up there.
We need to look at the trend on a few years.
I have a hand in creating mutant species if I'm going to achieve results soonest... but it's pretty hard to change the nurturing environment, so can't it?
And then there's the story that good fertilizer increases potato yields.
But there's talk of more pest damage this time if the fertilizer is too good, and... if there's anything you can do, you can draw attention to it when the fertilizer comes out, right?
Experiments to change the amount of fertilizer you give may also be necessary.
The uka bothers me.
"You also think quite a bit about agriculture.
Erica squeaks as she looks at the uka.
"That's right.
If anything happens all day round the clock, I'll take care of it.
It depends on the climate and also manages the soil.
Agricultural workers will lose their minds.
That's why I don't force price cuts when it comes to food.
It's best to leave it to marketability because it's worth the market.
It would be to the extent that I would compensate you if the value were to drop rapidly.
"The value drops.
Mr. Takeo, do you think you're going to step back?
"Especially.
If the entire diet in the territory has changed, there will be items that will go higher and items that will go lower.
I can't think of anything that would change that much to see what's going on.
"What about rice?
"We're looking to sell to a degree that won't be the staple food, and it's hard to say that the price of wheat will drop even if rice becomes popular because of low self-sufficiency in the first place.
Well, it may change slightly in terms of import volumes, so there is a risk that prices in the area around you will drop somewhat... but that's only if the lords and civilians of the land think about it.
It's not what the Elvis family thinks.
"When I put His Highness William in the forefront...
What do you think?
Imports are likely to dominate for the time being.
Will the price go up?
"Really?
Alice says with surprise to Erica's thoughts.
"Yeah, I think we're going to have to import both wheat and vegetables for the time being because we're going to build territory where it wasn't 30,000 people before.
I wonder if I would buy it from Wang Du or the surrounding area.
How do you look at the budget?
"Ta... Dear Takeo, are we going to be okay?
"The price of imported cereals has risen.
Ma, maybe Frederick and the others are thinking.
I know the Lordship William will be transferred.
You're thinking about how far up you'll go from there.
"I'll check when I get back.
Alice said as she pondered.
