And the yield of wheat wasn’t solely dependent on the variety; agricultural techniques in the Yanan World were still relatively backward. Most serfs relied on experience passed down through word of mouth and demonstration, lacking a systematic approach and certainly not the most efficient. There was substantial room for improvement later on in areas such as fertilization and pest control.
He believed that once agricultural techniques were optimized, the yield of this wheat could increase even more than what Lillian had estimated.
It was just a pity... The main staple crop of the Yanan World was still primarily wheat.
But this was only temporary; he would find suitable rice seeds sooner or later.
As far as yield was concerned, rice yielded more than wheat.
Of course, that wasn’t the main reason.
—He had been wanting to eat rice for far too long.
"I’ve kept about a hundred acres of farmland; it’s not too late to sow now, to await the wheat harvest in May next year, which will be just in time for the autumn seeds." Colin went on to say.
"It’s not hard work." Lillian shook her head, "This is what I should do."
Colin nodded and didn’t thank her further.
