Planting forage grass was the top priority.
The Shepherd Pope naturally knew that.
But his line of thinking had gone no further than using Druid Potions in large quantities to grow forage grass. After all, the Golden Merchants' Guild had already driven down the price of Druid Potions.
With just a few copper coins, the forage grass grown could feed quite a few sheep, while profits would not decrease by much.
But he had not expected the magitech experts to attach such importance to this as well.
Though his thinking had become somewhat rigid, he still sensed that something was off.
"I wonder what benefits there are to using magitech devices to grow forage grass, and what direction you have in mind?"
Hearing the Shepherd Pope's question, the magitech experts did not waste words. One of them said directly, "Actually, during this period, we've been researching large-scale cattle farming."
"Compared to sheep, though, our plan for cattle is much simpler. We directly divide them into beef cattle and dairy cattle, with different plans for different types of cattle."
"Of course, that isn't the point. The point is that we discovered the greatest difference between raising cattle and raising other animals is that large amounts of forage grass and hay can be used as feed, thereby reducing costs."
"Under Viscount Rost's leadership, we developed a new forage grass planting and management model. I imagine it can also be applied to sheep..."
As the expert went on and on, the Shepherd Pope gradually went from puzzled to astonished.
This so-called planting meant exactly what it sounded like: planting forage grass the same way crops were planted, allowing the growth efficiency of fixed forage grass within an area to far surpass that of the natural environment.
Obviously, that was not difficult to understand.
