1. Save water resources and use them rationally
Because of the scarcity of water resources, the country continued to build water conservancy facilities in the early days to store and collect rainwater to the maximum. Since 1953, construction of the North-South Water Diversion Project was started to transport the abundant water resources of the Lake of Galilee in the northeast to 300 The central and southern part of kilometers away meets agricultural needs. Secondly, drip irrigation technology was invented in 1962. This technology was a turning point in the history of the development of agricultural production technology in Israel, which reduced the water consumption per unit area of the country's irrigated land by 50%. The last is to increase the intensity of circulating water. The country will centrally purify the sewage from industry and urban life and then use it for agricultural production again. Take the Dan district sewage treatment plant in Rishon Lezion as an example. Treating the domestic sewage of 2 million residents, 32% of the sewage will be used for local agricultural irrigation after treatment, which already accounts for 70% of the irrigation water in the area. Our country has done very poorly on this point. If sewage can be used for irrigation in a larger scale, many water shortage problems in the north will be alleviated to a certain extent.
2. Attach importance to agricultural research and promotion
The country’s finances give priority to agriculture. There are 7 professional research institutes, 4 regional research stations and a seed gene bank under the Ministry of Agriculture. In addition, many universities in Israel have established agronomy majors. For example, the world-class Weizmann Institute of Science has five agricultural research centers. The university has countless invention patents and the world's highest technology transfer fee income. Only the highest patent income can reach 35 billion U.S. dollars a year. Compared with Tsinghua University, my country's highest university, the patent income in 2019 is 1.417 billion yuan. It has given Tsinghua several billion in financial support. As for Tsinghua University’s investment losses, this is already well known. I can't say that Tsinghua University has not contributed much to our country, but if Tsinghua University can focus more on scientific research, perhaps the patent income will be more than that. And if you are willing to put down the following, involving agricultural majors, it may be more helpful for our country to become a strong agricultural country. Compared with Israel, many universities in a small and small country set up agronomy majors, and the most first-class universities set up 5 agronomic research centers. Compare us The highest institution is indeed a bit ashamed. More universities in our country also need to set up agronomy majors. After all, people rely on food for their own sake. All going to stocks and real estate will only blow up bubbles and ruin the country's future.
3. Develop agricultural science and technology according to local conditions
Both the Netherlands and Israel have a small area of arable land, and the natural conditions are also bad, so they have chosen to develop greenhouse planting. This can not only prevent the invasion of diseases and insects to the greatest extent, but also increase the planting area. For example, after using a greenhouse on the same acre of land, several layers of vegetables can be planted, which doubles the planting area. Moreover, the greenhouse is particularly suitable for the development of the Internet of Things management system. Through computer management and analysis of the collected data, each stage of crop growth can be accurately controlled to increase crop yields. Here I will focus on the issue of fertilizers. The Netherlands is rich in water resources, so it vigorously develops soilless cultivation, and basically or rarely uses fertilizers, but uses higher technology to improve its products. Some people say that soilless cultivation requires fertilizers. This is a misunderstanding. You can take a look at the relevant information on the Internet. You can grow many organic vegetable varieties such as raw vegetables and spinach without fertilizers, but the prices are high. In fact, our country also has this new technology, and only high-end people will buy the vegetables grown.
4. Pay attention to and develop seeds
In the Netherlands, I have introduced that most of the vegetable seeds are developed and controlled by themselves. In fact, Israel has done a very good job in this area. In order to speed up its agricultural development, it sent people to the United States to study. After 70 years of accumulation, they have developed research and development. A large number of seeds of agricultural products have been produced, and 5 new varieties will be introduced every 10 years. This allows the seeds and seedlings of Israeli agricultural products to be recognized all over the world, and it also guarantees agricultural safety. Despite the fact that our country is planting everything today, most of the seeds are controlled by Western countries headed by the United States, and they will suffer big losses at critical moments.
Finally, the most important thing for farmers is that after meeting self-sufficiency, they must adhere to the market-oriented approach and rationally optimize planting types and quantities. In this regard, both the Netherlands and Israel have done very well. They are market-oriented and fully plan their country’s agricultural product cultivation areas to avoid blind and vicious competition among farmers themselves. For example, according to the data, the EU needs approximately how much vegetables and grains are needed each year. Israel allocates orders to farmers based on this demand to avoid blindly planting certain crops to cause surplus. As a result, it cannot be sold or sold at a reduced price to harm the interests of farmers.
