What kind of livestock do you think rural farmers raise is the most cost effective? Why?

I myself am a rural person, and I have many years of breeding experience, and there are many livestock that can be raised in rural areas, such as our common beef cattle, beef sheep, dairy cows, pigs, donkeys and so on. If you want to say which is the most cost-effective, I personally think that there are meat sheep and dairy cows. The investment of meat sheep can be more or less, and the investment of dairy cows is relatively large, and the profit of both can be relied upon, depending on how you choose.

Because I am now raising a multi-born sheep small-tailed Han sheep, I will introduce you to this breed and its breeding profits.

First of all, let's briefly introduce the small-tailed Han sheep, a multi-fetal sheep breed. The coat of the small-tailed Han sheep is white, the ram has a spiral horn, and the ewe has a small horn or horn root, and the physique is tall and strong. The ram is majestic and mighty, and the ewe is delicate.

The biggest advantage of the small-tailed Han sheep is that it has strong reproductive ability, fast growth rate, early sexual maturity, strong disease resistance and wide adaptability. Self-raised small-tailed Han sheep, using semi-captive and semi-stocking mode breeding, can do two or two years of three children, in most cases two years of three children, each litter of lambs 2 5, 6 8 times, but it is a very few. Small-tailed Han sheep are easy not to get sick, as long as they are raised and managed according to the normal requirements of sheep raising, there will be no major diseases.

The reason why I say that sheep raising in rural areas is cost-effective, because sheep are domestic animals, and the cost of breeding in the early stage can be more or less, and there are many free forages used to feed sheep in rural areas, and some places can also be grazing, which will greatly save the cost of breeding.

According to my method, if you raise 40 breeding ewes (including 2 breeding rams) in the countryside, you can almost return to the cost in about 2 years. If you don't consider fattening after returning to the capital, only consider the lamb, according to the current lamb, 40 breeding ewes (including 2 breeding rams) have a net profit of about 60,000 yuan in 1 year, but people are more hard, need to herd sheep, and usually find a way to collect free forage.

In short, in order to make a steady profit without losing money, we must choose the most stable long-term breeding project with large demand, but the premise is that we must learn the relevant technology, the technology is in place, and the things that are bred grow fast and have few diseases, and it is difficult to make money; Moreover, if we talk about breeding something in the countryside, we don't have to worry about the market, the market is good, and the profit is high, we think that the breeding of this product should be the first choice.

Rural is a broad term, but breeding depends on the surrounding natural conditions, so different rural areas need to breed different livestock, which is called "geographical advantage". If you can't distinguish the surrounding environment, just take a look at what the eight villages are based on, what livestock others raise, and they also breed like this, in fact, they don't suffer, after all, breeding also needs experience, and people's long-term accumulated experience is worth learning.

In general, in places with more trees in mountainous areas, it is better to raise cattle, which is mainly because the weeds below the woodland affect the growth of the forest, as long as the forest is not destroyed, the owner of the woodland hopes that there will be no weeds in the woodland to compete for nutrients with the forest, after all, weeds also need nutrition, and will also compete with the forest for "resources", so raising cattle in areas with more forests can ensure free weed resources, and the relative cost is lower. If the area is a large forest area, you should also pay attention to whether there are pests such as "grass rakes" in the woodland, and apply pesticides in time to help the growth of the cattle.

If there is more local flat land, mainly based on grain, then it is best to raise pigs or omnivores, because such animals are based on grain or feed, and the grain in the production area is relatively cheap, and has thousands of years of breeding tradition, not only experience, but also supporting cooperatives or seedling factories, which saves a lot of trouble for their own breeding, especially all kinds of preventive drugs, the local area is relatively rich, forming a complete industrial chain, as long as you take care of the animals you feed with peace of mind.

If it is a grassland area, then raising cattle and sheep is the best choice, after all, it is difficult to grow crops in the grassland, and the production of grass resources, which makes the cost of raising cattle and sheep relatively low, and there are thousands of years of breeding tradition, the surrounding supporting industries are complete, as long as you are responsible for the safety of cattle and sheep, step by step. Other animals such as mink, horses and other unusual animals are raised, it depends on whether the local industrial chain is complete, otherwise it seems to be very high, but it is actually very difficult to make money, after all, the price must be high There must be a reason for the high price.

1. All now rural chickens and rabbits are more profitable.

A must-have for successful chicken farming.

First, good breeds are fundamental: choose excellent chicks. Chicks are best from a certain degree of credibility and a considerable level of technology; The chickens are robust; Breeder farms with no serious outbreaks.

Second, feed is the foundation: the use of high credibility; Feed produced by standardized feed manufacturers with stable feed quality; And can use feed scientifically; In order to ensure the feeding effect.

3. Environment is the condition: the site selection of the chicken farm and the construction of the chicken coop should be scientific and reasonable, the production equipment should be in good condition, and the control of the microclimate environment in the chicken coop should adapt to the requirements of the biological characteristics of the chicken.

Fourth, health and epidemic prevention is the guarantee: establish a strict health and epidemic prevention system; Adhere to a strict disinfection and immunization system; prompt prophylaxis; Dispose of sick and dead chickens, dirt, and manure to reduce diseases.

Fifth, daily management is the core: learn the scientific knowledge of chicken raising; Have the technical experience of doing a good job in daily feeding management and disease prevention and control, but also timely and accurately capture market and technical information, only with the above conditions, in order to ensure the success of raising chickens, in order to achieve good breeding benefits.

It is true that few of today's farmers are willing to raise livestock and poultry, which is mainly related to the massive loss of young farmers nowadays. As long as we go to the rural areas and take a look, the left-behind elderly and left-behind children have become the main population in the rural areas, and they are obviously struggling to raise livestock and poultry. In the countryside, a few are free-range, and the elderly are okay; However, in order to develop large-scale farming, this requires not only technology, but also economic strength, manpower support, etc., which is obviously not possible.

However, farmers raising poultry or livestock on a free-range basis do not produce much economic benefit and can only barely feed themselves, which is obviously not cost-effective for young farmers, because they have to bear the burden of family income; However, the development of large-scale farming requires professional skills and technology, and if there is no expertise and skills in this area, or there are obvious defects, it will often end up in a mess. This is a mantra that restricts young farmers from developing aquaculture. Therefore, this is not because the peasants are now rich and do not develop the breeding industry.

In the past, it was a sideline business for farmers to raise poultry or livestock in their own yards, basically raising a pig, or a sheep, or a cow, or raising a few chickens, ducks and geese, etc., to increase the additional income and supplement of the family economy, and the whole family mainly relied on the family's fields for their livelihood. At that time, the peasants said that "the land is the lifeblood of the peasants". It can be seen how important land is to farmers, and raising poultry or livestock at home is just a sideline business in the spare time.

From the perspective of the income from raising poultry and livestock, there is indeed a high risk, a long income cycle, no migrant workers, or job skills The income comes quickly, steadily, and highly. This is the decisive factor. Also, now all over the countryside is building beautiful villages, the management requirements for the rural living environment are quite strict, not to say that you want to raise can raise, in accordance with the provisions of the relevant licenses, to achieve the legalization of breeding, the minimum requirement is the site selection of breeding sites, environmental protection equipment and facilities up to standard, before the introduction of breeding.

However, for the average skilled young farmer, the threshold for farming is too high now.

We say that the development of large-scale aquaculture to generate economic benefits, it is necessary to effectively connect with the market, in order to achieve the purpose of breeding. Young farmers have just entered the society, do not have good savings, or the investment in breeding is insufficient, the market prospects of breeding species can not be reasonable, and the development demand orientation of the industry can not be understood, which is the biggest drawback of the development of aquaculture. In contrast, young farmers now go to the city to work, as long as they have mastered the skills of the position in the industryIts income is also quite considerable, and it is by no means lower than the income from the development of aquaculture.

Of course, young farmers develop aquaculture, which is to develop their own careers; Although you can make money by working outside for a long time, it is not a long-term solution. If young farmers who are interested in aquaculture, they should learn more skills in these areas and participate more in aquacultureOr go deep into the industry, lay a solid foundation for the development of the aquaculture industry in the future, and then travel lightly, you will definitely be able to obtain good economic benefits.

One is to raise less money and not make money, raise more than no manpower to visit and found that whether it is raising cattle, sheep or chickens, ducks, raising a small number of people must not earn a few money, the acquisition of merchants suspect that you have a small number, ** pressure is very low, take the rural little stupid chicken as an example, the market selling price is about 60 yuan or so, but, the centralized purchase of ** sold less than 50 yuan, pick and choose, all kinds of reasons, or the number is too small, the 50 yuan, deducted food, labor, vaccines, medicines basically do not make any money, in addition, The current situation in the countryside is that the able-bodied people go out to work, and most of the families are elderly, women, and children.

It's not that rural people are rich or not, it's mainly that livestock and poultry are too dirty and need to be cleaned up very hard every day, and in addition, livestock and poultry can't make much money by selling them.

It's not because the cost of raising livestock and poultry is quite high. The cost of cultivation is basically the same as the investment, and there is no money left over for breeding.
