"The policy is not completely prohibited!" Li Jietong smiled and picked up the teacup, gently frothing on it, and said, "Even the major domestic experts have said that solving the problem of eating requires high technology. This kind of thing is to cross the river by feeling the stones. If you touch it right, the river may pass."

Zeng Yi saw Li Jietong talking lightly, and he felt a chill in his heart. This was a big issue that concerns the most basic needs of the people. It was so big that he was not as big as eating. But when he arrived at Li Jietong, he actually passed by him by feeling the stones across the river. It would be great if it was that simple.

If you touch the stone, you can cross the river. If you touch it correctly, you can come back and start over again. However, it is related to the people's food issues, but there is no chance to come over again. Once you touch the stone wrongly, it will become a cliff behind you. By then, there is no way out to retreat.

"Are you more cautious?" Zeng Yi expressed his objection again.

Seeing Zeng Yi's continuous opposition, Li Jietong felt a little unhappy and put the cup on the table and said, "The planting of genetically modified crops has been around for a long time abroad. Some places in China are also promoting the work, and the effect is still very obvious! Our Zhonghua City is an economic city, and the arable land area is decreasing year by year. It is difficult to maintain the current yield. It can be said that it is a fantasy to achieve increased yield, but the above tasks have been issued, so we can't stay indifferent! We can't twist our big legs with a small arm, Comrade Zeng Yi, you must understand this principle."

Zeng Yi did not nod. He did not agree with Li Jietong's concept. There was a requirement for increasing production, which was an objective condition. However, no matter how you think of a solution below, you cannot think about this aspect. If you take the wrong step, you will be unable to recover from the water!

"If you want to increase yield, there are only two ways: one is to increase the farming area, and the other is to increase the yield per mu of grain." Li Jietong raised two fingers to Zeng Yi and gently pressed one down, saying: "For the first point, it is basically impossible. It is a blessing that commercial land does not extend its hands to the farmland; and for the second point, it has reached a bottleneck. Our hybrid breeding technology has put the crop yield to the limit. As for the use of water, fertilizer and pesticides, it is not too large."

This time Zeng Yi nodded. Zeng Yi had never done work in the agricultural field before, so he was not familiar with this area. However, after becoming the director of the Agricultural Commission of Sinochem City, Zeng Yi did his homework.

Li Jietong is right. The current domestic grain production situation is indeed very serious. We use 7% of the world's arable land area to feed nearly 20% of the world's population. This is indeed very difficult. In the past, our grain could basically achieve self-sufficiency. However, with the growth of large amounts of arable land, our grain self-sufficiency has dropped to only 90%.

But the price we paid for 90% of this is also very high. We only have 7% of the world's arable land, but we consume one-third of the world's pesticides, fertilizers, soil and water quality every year.

It is not unclear about these situations, but in order to maintain the overall situation of food security and to achieve increased grain production, everyone turned a blind eye and chose to adopt a tacit attitude towards the excessive use of pesticides and fertilizers. However, today, the way to rely on pesticides and fertilizers to achieve increased production has come to an end.

On the one hand, grain prices have not risen for many years, farmers are not very enthusiastic about growing grain, and a large amount of arable land has been converted to economic crops; on the other hand, the breeding of a large amount of livestock has increased grain consumption; coupled with the demand for commercial and housing land, it has become very difficult to increase grain production as one rises and the other falls.

Li Jietong is under great pressure now. He has lost to Zeng Yi in the matter of controlling straw burning. His superiors cannot suppress his subordinates. He has become a big joke in the city. In addition, Mr. Jiang came and called Zeng Yi's name again. He, the deputy mayor in charge of agricultural work, suddenly felt that his status and authority were in danger.

Under this circumstance, Li Jietong turned his attention to increasing grain production. In recent years, superiors have been emphasizing the issue of increasing grain production. If under his own leadership, Zhongche City can achieve a significant increase in grain production, then even if his deputy mayor in charge of agriculture has achieved significant political achievements, land production will increase farmers' income. With this, no one can shake the throne of the deputy mayor.

"If you can't complete the task of your superiors, it will be difficult for you and I to explain it at that time, and the city will also reduce points!" Li Jietong looked at Zeng Yi and seemed to be serious. If the task is not completed at that time, I, the deputy mayor, will be blind, but you, Zeng Yi, as the director of the Agricultural Commission, are not much better. This matter is obviously beneficial to you and me.

Zeng Yi was not thinking about this. At worst, he would just not do it. But as long as he was still in this position for one day, he would never allow a genetically modified seed to flow into Zhonghua City. Moreover, if he wanted to increase grain production, there was no other way to imagine. It was just that Li Jietong was more successful and tended to use immediate results, which was exactly the same as his strong idea of ​​forcing farmers to burn straw.

"As far as I know, the abandonment of arable land in our city has become more and more serious in recent years. To achieve increased grain production, can we think of solutions from this aspect?" Zeng Yi put forward another idea.

Li Jietong was a little impatient. He had already explained to Zeng Yi very clearly. What kind of guy is so stubborn? It is obviously a difficult situation to get along with him. He said: "The situation of abandonment of land does exist, but it is not common, and the situation is complicated to manage. We can't force farmers to farm. The cows press their heads without drinking water. This is not the situation we want to see.

"As long as there is a way to go, we will eventually come up with a good solution to the problem!" Zeng Yi said.

The flesh between Li Jietong's eyebrows jumped twice, obviously he was already angry, but he just held back and did not have anger. Zeng Yi's words made him very angry. This clearly refers to my Li Jietong's panic.

Suppressing the impatient situation in his heart, Li Jietong said: "One more road is not a bad thing. But Comrade Zeng Yi's concerns are reasonable. It is not realistic to take too much steps at once. To be cautious, can we consider doing promotion work in a small range first?"

Zeng Yi knew that Li Jietong was determined to plant genetically modified crops, and he couldn't persuade him kindly. Zeng Yi was too lazy to talk nonsense to Li Jietong, and directly expressed his attitude, saying: "I personally can't make decisions about this matter. For caution, should I ask the city leaders to make a collective decision?"

Li Jietong picked up the teacup again, and he didn't want to talk to Zeng Yi anymore. This was originally a solution. If it was attended to the municipal government meeting, it would definitely be difficult to pass. Who would be willing to take this responsibility?

After tasting a sip of tea, Li Jietong said calmly: "It is normal that there is no consensus. Comrade Zeng Yi takes this material back and takes a closer look. After reading it, we will discuss it." Li Jietong's words mean that Zeng Yi makes a big deal and makes collective decisions at any time!

Without a single word, Zeng Yi was too lazy to talk to Li Jietong again, so he got up and said goodbye directly, and took the materials out of Li Jietong's office.

Zeng Yi understood why Li Jietong wrote that word. It turned out that the bone-breaking refers to the fact that the genetically modified crops are indeed something that can make people crushed, and even have a bad reputation for thousands of years. If you do this, don’t expect to leave any innocence in the world.

Li Jietong clearly wanted to eat hot bean buns, but was afraid of burning his hands. He called Zeng Yi over to discuss that he wanted to break into pieces and leave his innocence. Although the Sinochem Municipal Agricultural Committee is a leisurely yamen and can't take care of anything, it just cared about one very important thing, that is, the review of seed qualifications.

Li Jietong has achieved this level of being an official, which really made Zeng Yi speechless! This is also one of the reasons why Zeng Yi did not write this sentence when writing an inscription for Mr. Jiang. He is not afraid of coal-like officials, but only fears of lime officials like Li Jietong who looks innocent!

This reminded Zeng Yi of another person, that is Yan Zhidao, deputy mayor of Longshan City!

Both are scholars, both academically and professionally, and are both deputy mayors, but the gap between the two is a world of difference. When Yan Zhidao's speech "Don't let the future of the city be marginalized", he still benefits Zeng Yi deeply, but Li Jietong does not have the demeanor of an academic official in his work. He is more eager for quick success and instant benefits than others. He is simple and crude.

When he left the door, the driver Lao Zhang immediately drove the car over. He wanted to say hello to Zeng Yi, but when he saw Zeng Yi having a dark face, Lao Zhang chose to keep silent with a wink. When Zeng Yi got on the car, he quickly walked towards the Agriculture Committee.

After returning to the Agricultural Commission, after the car stopped, Zeng Yi got out of the car and went into the building.

The driver Lao Zhang caught up with him and said hurriedly: "Director Zeng, you have left the document in the car!" Lao Zhang held the document that Zeng Yi got from Li Jietong in his hand.

Zeng Yi didn't look back and said, "Give it aside!" and stepped into the building.

The driver Lao Zhang stood at the entrance of the building and scratched his head in wonder. He didn't understand what was wrong with Zeng Yi. He opened the documents and looked at them, but found that most of them were in English and could not quite understand them. He could only roughly tell that they were talking about planting.

After thinking about it, Lao Zhang didn't dare to throw away the document and decided to keep it for a few days. Maybe Director Zeng will be angry in the future and come to find this document again.

When Xie Liangbin returned to the office, he followed him in and said, "The director is back? I'll pour you a cup of tea to relieve your fatigue!" As he said that, Xie Liangbin was about to go over and pour water for Zeng Yi.

Zeng Yi pressed his hand, signaled Xie Liangbin to stop, and said, "You go and send a notice!"

Xie Liangbin immediately took out the notebook and pen, stood there and prepared for the record, then looked at Zeng Yi and waited for Zeng Yi's following.

Zeng Yi thought for a while and said: "The agricultural committees of all districts and counties and seed management stations are required to re-examine and inspect all existing seeds on the market in our city. All seeds that do not comply with the laws and regulations and have poor quality will be prohibited from being sold. Without the permission of the municipal agricultural committee, sales licenses for new seeds will not be approved in the near future."

While recording, Xie Liangbin thought about what the meaning of Zeng Yi’s notice was, and why he had to punch the seeds hard as soon as he came back from the city.
Chapter completed!
