Most of the pigs purchased by the live pig purchasing stations are grade C, with a small amount of grade B. Grade A and above are very rare.

In order to meet the purchasing standards, it is not uncommon to raise a pig for two years.

It is common in rural areas to slaughter their own New Year pigs and only get a few dozen kilograms of pure meat.

But now, Liu Chuan told Mu Yuanping that the pigs in the pig farm can grow to more than 100 kilograms and close to 200 kilograms in a few months.

"Comrade Liu Chuan, can you tell me why you wanted to build this feed factory and pig farm?"

Mu Yuanping asked in surprise.

What is most lacking at the moment is food, and feeding everyone is the biggest task for those in power.

Few places would think of "wasting" food to raise pigs and chickens.

Liu Chuan replied cautiously, "Director Mu, it's like this. Our original plan was to mainly earn foreign exchange through exports. We in Jingjiang are a state-designated pig production area. Every year, we work very hard to meet the state-set pig production targets."

"We also know that the state purchases live pigs, in addition to supplying them domestically, a large portion is used for export to earn foreign exchange."

"We first conducted a rabbit breeding experiment at Yanggou Farm and found that the results were quite good. So we thought about developing feed and then setting up a pig farm to try it out. If we can speed up pig production and expand the breeding scale, we can easily meet the pig production targets set by the state."

Although Huang Jianguo was the industrial secretary, he also had some understanding of the agricultural situation. He whispered, "Director Mu, as far as I know, Chuzhou exceeded its pig procurement target last year. It exceeded it by more than three times... This will greatly reduce the pressure on other parts of the province, and it will be easier to complete the provincial task."

Mu Yuanping nodded and said, "What about raising chickens? What results have you seen?"

He must understand these situations clearly, the more detailed the better, so that when he returns and reports to his superiors, his report will be meaningful.

Liu Chuan said: "Eggs and broiler chickens are also important export products for earning foreign exchange. We are currently mainly raising laying hens... and the feed formula is also designed in this direction."

"Oh, how did that work out?"

“The effect is very obvious.”

"We have data. Chickens raised in the wild on ordinary farms can lay about 250 eggs per year, while laying hens in farms can lay more than eggs per year. The effect has doubled or tripled."

Liu Chuan answered with great confidence.

I couldn't help but secretly admire my son's foresight.

Liu Hongyi told him that all factories must establish complete data, with both ledgers and detailed accounts.

With this data, factories can be managed better and researchers can find more accurate research directions.

Just study what’s not working!

Otherwise, when Mu Yuanping asked, we would be at a loss, and all our answers would only be rough estimates, which would greatly reduce their persuasiveness.

"Yeah, okay..."

After hearing this, Mu Yuanping couldn't help but express his admiration.

It was clear that he was quite excited, but he was here on behalf of the leadership, primarily to understand the situation, and could not express his views casually. Because of his special status, every word he said would be "carefully interpreted" by local comrades.

Mu Yuanping knew very well what he could say and what he could not say.

So what he has said so far has been ambiguous and he has not given any definite answer.

"By the way, Comrade Chu An, I have a question. This pig is growing so fast, I'm afraid it won't taste good, right?"

This is how fixed people's thinking is.

For thousands of years, pigs have grown at this rate, taking at least a year to be slaughtered. Now, Liu Chuan and his team have increased this rate several times, allowing them to be slaughtered in just four or five months, and they're heavier than pigs raised for over a year. So there must be some flaws along the way.

It's like a balloon. You blow it up, but in essence it is still a membrane with air wrapped inside.
