Without transgenic technology, Brazil's soybean production capacity will exceed that of the United States

Introduction: due to the progress of agricultural technology, but excluding transgenic technology, Brazil's soybean production capacity has exceeded that of the United States this year Thirty years ago, soybean, an oil-bearing crop native to northern China that could only be cultivated in temperate or subtropical climate and latitude of 30 degrees or higher, landed in America But in the past 30 years, Brazil has not only successfully planted soybean in tropical climate, but also achieved high yield, which makes Brazil the second largest soybean producer in the world Brazil's soybean yield is not as high as that of two competitors, the United States and Argentina, which use genetically modified soybean seeds on a large scale Brazil's high yield is entirely due to the progress of agricultural technology This year, the average yield of Brazil's soybeans is 2708 kg / ha, while that of the United States is only 2594 kg / ha according to the statistics of the United States Department of agriculture Brazil's prairie is famous for its "natural treasure land", but in the past, it was regarded as a barren land, and now it has become a good field for producing huge quantities of soybeans In fact, last year, Mato Grosso Province in the Midwest of Brazil has become the largest soybean producing state in Brazil, and its output has set a new record This year, the per unit yield of soybean is 2999 kg / ha High yield of soybean is attributed to technological progress, such as the cultivation of new varieties, the application of new fertilizers and the control technology of harmful substances and weeds Brazil's soybean production, like today's new computers, continues to be infused with new technologies Without high technology, soybeans, which come from temperate climate, can't grow normally in this relatively stressful environment in northern Brazil, near the equator in northern Brazil But Cruz, President of the Sao Paulo research support foundation, Brazil's largest technological and scientific research institution, points out that at present, Brazil mainly focuses on the technological progress of industry In Brazil, the priority of agricultural technology research is placed in a lower position, which leads to the final result of ranking 43rd in the technological progress of 72 countries of the United Nations The high yield of soybean in Brazilian prairie is also the result of successful accumulation of planting experience for many years, and also the result of accumulation of planting technology It is also the result of the transfer of financial resources from agribusiness in southern Brazil to the region, especially Mato Grosso Flat land is conducive to mechanized farming and the application of new fertilizer technology, including bacterial implantation of soybean seeds At the same time, it promotes the development of transportation industry related to soybean industry and the formation of other related industrial framework, thus ensuring the successful cultivation of soybean in the tropics of Brazil The successful application of fixed nitrogen bacteria technology is a revolutionary technological progress, which was invented by Johanna, a research pioneer who just died last year This technology reduces the production cost of soybean and saves the cost of fertilizer In addition, the bacterial implantation technology of soybean is very effective, which can avoid the loss of fertilizer due to the impact of rainwater, because the traditional soybean may lose nitrogen due to the impact of rainwater and so on Of the 68 researchers of the official Brazilian Agricultural Research Company (EMBRAPA), 60 are currently engaged in the cultivation of new soybean varieties and processing of soybeans, so as to increase the output of soybeans and stimulate domestic consumption Their innovation has played a decisive role in making soybeans the first agricultural export earning variety in Brazil At present, the export of soybeans in Brazil has eclipsed the traditional export varieties such as coffee and sugar There are 60 million hectares of Brazilian prairie or great plain for soybean production, while the United States and Argentina have few new resources for soybean production expansion According to the researchers of EMBRAPA, the expansion of soybean production will affect the environment, just as environmentalists fear, because the expansion of land will destroy the forest, so the vegetation will be damaged For example, in the jungle area of the Amazon hot belt in Brazil, the forest has been cut and there is no resource to use In addition, a new technology "live broadcast" has been adopted by most soybean farmers in Brazil, which can increase production and prevent soil desertification Increasing production in Brazil now depends only on expanding domestic consumption of soybeans, a way to increase the income of the poorest of 170 million people One of the new ways to stimulate consumption in the soybean research center of EMBRAPA is to study different kinds of bets to satisfy different consumers' tastes Many Brazilians refuse to have nutritious and high protein foods because they think they can't arouse people's appetite Researchers at EMBRAPA say two new varieties for human consumption, as well as their different flavors of soy nutrition, will be available next year (Liu RI in the middle of Liaoning Province) (author:) shared on feed Weibo to:
