The problem is, there aren't enough sunflower seeds right now, and the remaining land can only be planted with other crops that can grow on salt-alkali land.
Crops with good salt-alkali tolerance do exist, like Lobama and goji berries.
But the issue with these crops is that either their growing cycles are too long or they aren't suitable for planting in this season.
Sunflowers can be harvested in a little over a hundred days. What if other crops only grow halfway? You wouldn't want to cut them down, but if you don't, there's no time to plant the next batch of sunflowers. Wouldn't this become an endless cycle?
Shu Yu thought it over and realized that out of all the crops available in the Dasu dynasty right now, broccoli was the most suitable.
Broccoli is also alfalfa.
This crop has high yield, can be used as food, has medicinal value, and is even called the king of forage.
