The people outside the sky nodded. They knew about burning the seedlings, but this kind of fertilizer was not easy to get. It was too difficult for them to get 50 kilograms of cow dung.
I don't know if human feces would work.
"Human feces are also difficult to obtain. It will take several months to obtain so much human feces. Moreover, Tianmu didn't specify how much to obtain per acre of land. We still need to conduct careful experiments."
"It would be great if the court could support us."
Tang Dynasty
Li Shimin and all his ministers were trying to figure out where to get so much cow dung. If you want cow dung, you must have cows.
Although the Tang Dynasty had no problem dealing with the grassland at that time, it still did not have that many cattle.
"Father, we can't think of a solution, but maybe someone else can. How about writing a notice and calling on people all over the world to offer suggestions?" Li Chengqian suggested.
"Well, you can issue the notice in the name of the Eastern Palace."
Next, let's talk about how to make nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizers. This is quite easy to make. Simply grind animal bones into powder and sprinkle it directly on the ground.
[However, there is a problem. Bones are rich in phosphorus, which is why there may be will-o'-the-wisp fire in cemeteries. I wonder if spreading this kind of nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizer on the ground will also cause will-o'-the-wisp fire.]
Daqin
It was indeed the first time they knew that this was the reason for the appearance of will-o'-the-wisp fire, but they didn't care whether or not the will-o'-the-wisp fire appeared, as long as the grain production could be increased.
Li Si went to the Mohist residence that day and asked them if they could mobilize manpower to produce this kind of fertilizer.
"Master Li, there's no need to mobilize manpower. Tianmu mentioned before that there's a hydraulic crusher used to make cement. If we modify it, maybe we can use it to make bone meal."
Li Si slapped his head and realized he had forgotten about this machine.
Qing Dynasty
Emperor Qianlong shook his head. He felt that the common people must know these methods. Besides, it was just some manure or something like that. There was no technical difficulty.
Only a few countries will do this? Isn't that an exaggeration?
There are so many talented people in the Qing Dynasty now, I don’t believe that we can’t come up with something.
"Heshen, this sky curtain is not interesting. Come with me to see the paintings. They are authentic works from the Tang Dynasty." Qianlong said with a smile.
"Whoo."
Now it doesn’t matter whether Heshen looks at the sky curtain or not. There are many literati who record the sky curtain and even put forward their own opinions. There are several such literati in his mansion.
Finally, let's mention that wood ash can be used as potash fertilizer, and straw, leaves, and various human and animal feces can be made into organic compost.
Those of you who live in rural areas should be very familiar with this.
[The use of fertilizer can increase yields. If fertilizer is unavailable, crop rotation, such as wheat and soybeans, is the only option.]
If you really don't know anything and are clumsy, I suggest asking experienced farmers; they're sure to have some different, traditional methods.
[For example, using silt to fertilize the land.]
Qing Dynasty
Hearing the little eunuch say that the necessary skills for time travel in this issue have been learned, Emperor Qianlong curled his lips and said that the Qing Dynasty now has agricultural promotion officials, all of whom are farmers who are good at farming.
There is no good way.
"Ask those agricultural officials to come over and see me, and ask the Ministry of Rites to hand over all the rules. Don't enter the palace without knowing anything." Emperor Qianlong instructed the eunuchs around him.
"Let a few writers write articles to publicize this matter."

After hearing what Tianmu said, Emperor Wen of Han immediately took his ministers to the imperial farm and asked the old farmers there in detail about farming and whether the several methods proposed by Tianmu were feasible.
"Your Majesty, the methods mentioned on the sky curtain can be tried. Cow dung may be difficult for ordinary people, but it is still very simple for the Minister of the Imperial Household."
"Then we'll start the experiment tomorrow."

Qi Cheng got up from the bed, looked at the gloomy weather outside and sighed silently. The bad weather these days made it very difficult for Qi Cheng to go to work.
