Chapter 371 (1/2)

During the time when Moscow was in constant trouble, shariosha was inspecting the agriculture in Ukraine, although he was full of ambition when he came here, thinking that he might be able to change the poor production situation of the collective farms here. But when he really came to the grassroots to investigate the status quo, he found that he was too wrong.

The Soviet Union is not China, and he can't transplant China's experience here. Although there is no shortage of arable land in Ukraine, there is a lack of sufficient labor force. These fertile lands are now directly abandoned here. There's no one to plant it. Labor shortage is the most fundamental problem of Soviet agriculture.

At the bottom of his heart, he has completely abandoned the unrealistic idea of changing the current situation of Ukraine's agricultural development. He just wants to finish his journey here as soon as possible and then go back to Moscow to do something else. As for Gorbachev, seryosha plans to build a demonstration farm at his own expense.

However, through this investigation, Xie liaosha summed up some specific problems and made a written report to Gorbachev on behalf of the Ministry of agriculture. In Xie liaosha's report, he pointed out that although the central government has always expected agricultural production organizations to produce more grain, due to the deregulation of animal husbandry and non-staple food production policies, members of collective farms no longer focus on grain production, but focus more on self-supporting economy. This has resulted in the loss of a large number of labor force engaged in grain production, and the result of the loss of labor force is the decline of grain production and agricultural production, which in turn seriously restricts the development of breeding and animal husbandry. So in the final analysis, the only way out is to make use of the existing grain production labor force and invest a lot of money to establish a large-scale planting industry similar to the North American countries. Although the report was written by Xie liaosha, he himself knows that the establishment of large-scale farms like those in the United States needs a lot of financial support, and it is impossible to promote them on a large scale.

Xie liaosha wrote his report, and then he gave it to nasjia to polish and revise. The later things are waiting for the decision of the superior. Although seliosha came to Ukraine to investigate agriculture, he is an official of Moscow and the Ministry at least, so it is inevitable for some places to meet and communicate with each other. In particular, Xie liaosha is now in charge of grain production, which is the most critical Department of the Ministry of agriculture. Naturally, those enterprises affiliated to the Ministry of agriculture should be well entertained.

The last stop of his inspection tour was mainly concentrated in Dnieper petrovsk state, the hometown of the president of Ukraine. It is not only the industrial, economic and cultural center of Ukraine, but also an important major grain producing area. The Dnieper River hydropower station built in 1939 not only provided sufficient power for Ukraine, but also created good conditions for agriculture and fishery here.

When the Ministry of agriculture convoy led by seryosa arrived in Dnieper petrovsk, a local deputy governor in charge of agriculture had been waiting at the gate of the state government for a long time. Xie liaosha's car stopped steadily at the gate of the state government, and the entourage in the co driver's seat quickly opened the door for Xie liaosha. After finishing his clothes, he reached out to shake hands with the officials of the state government who welcomed him.

The deputy governor introduced the officials waiting here one by one. Xie liaosha, with a smile on his face, greets the officials for the first time one by one, and occasionally makes a few jokes. These officials all appear to be flattered.

”Director ulyanov, welcome to dneperovsk to guide our work!”

”Nice to meet you, comrade Yushchenko!” Xie liaosha responded kindly.

We exchanged greetings for a long time, and the reporter waiting on the side found the opportunity to take photos of the meeting for everyone. This photo will be on the front page of the local newspaper to be published tomorrow!
