Oil crops weren’t first created by Future Biology

As early as the 1970s, nobel Prize-winning scientist Melvin Calvin discovered a tall evergreen tree named Hevea brasiliensis in the tropical rain forest in Brazil After drilling a small hole, it was possible to produce a small amount of oil sirowing “oil crops” Subsequently, other countries also successively carried out researches on the applications of “oil crops”, then established new environmentally-friendly oil production bases such as “oil botanical gardens” and “oil farreen energy still has not been widely used

Not because it wasn’t easy to use but because of cost and production-related issues

Let’s talk about production first

What was Saudi Arabia’s oil production last year? According to data released by OPEC, this figure exceeded the historical peak of 125 million barrels in 2018…

Per day!

Yes, 125 million barrels per day! Think about the concept of this number?

In contrast, the UA, which was relatively advanced in the field of oil crop research, only harvested 140 barrels per hectare on “oil farms” per year That was a more lenient calculation, even if its quality was equivalent to 120 barrels of crude oil At present, there were only 100,000 hectares of oil crops in the UA and 12 million barrels of oil were produced each year

Clear data intuitively explained the problem

The production of oil crops in the UA was less than the amount of oil produced by OPEC countries in one day Of course, it wasn’t equal to the daily oil production of Texas

It was obviously ie the status of crude oil

Therefore, all countries only used this kind of “oil crops” as an alternative developies They subsidized these “fary and environmental protection policies so they wouldn’t die out After all, no one could be certain what the future is

Perhaps one day, the Middle East would drill out the last drop of oil and these oil cropsstraw to solve the energy crisis

Of course, it was only a wishful thinking

After all, this output was too little!

However, in Future Biology’s labs, “oil palm” was different With only one slice, more than 10 liters of sap would flow out from underneath the bark! A barrel of oil was equivalent to 159 liters and 16 trees could produce a barrel of oil And this kind of sap could be collected once a week!

assurown on one acre of land, the average daily output of an acre of land would already be close to one barrel of oil!

100,000 acres would produce a daily output of 100,000 barrels of oil It would only take one million acres of”oil palm” and several refineries that specifically refined this sap to y needs of Xin It would also open up the possibility of exporting to ion

After co Chen immediately made an order to purchase all pale the lab to do their utmost to perform induced differentiation on these acquired palm trees
