This year, the price of donkeys has been rising, fattening donkeys directly from 18 yuan / kg, up to 24 yuan / kg, the price of donkey seedlings from 19 yuan / kg, up to 28 yuan / kg, even so there is still no price for donkeys, because now there is really a shortage of donkeys. Today, Xiaobian will talk to you about the reasons for the rise in donkey prices, and can raising donkeys make money now? I hope that the majority of friends who are ready to start a business and raise donkeys can be helpful!
First, the reasons for the rise in donkey prices
1, really lack of donkeys
At the end of the last century, the domestic donkey inventory reached more than 9 million heads, and in 2010, the domestic donkey inventory was only 5.1 million heads, and then the domestic donkey inventory was declining year by year, according to relevant statistics, the current domestic donkey inventory is only 2.50 to 2.6 million heads, from the perspective of the amount of national memory column is really lacking donkeys.
2, the price of donkey skin has risen
Before the donkey industry is the most prosperous, fresh donkey skin can sell 80 yuan / jin, a donkey skin can sell 3000 yuan, but in the past few years, the performance of ejiao enterprises is not good, the price of donkey skin has dropped sharply, the lowest time fresh donkey skin is only 23 yuan / jin, but this year began to increase the price of donkey skin, and now fresh donkey skin can be sold to 50 ~ 60 yuan / jin, which has returned to normal levels.
3, donkey meat demand is large
Although there are fewer donkeys, but the demand for donkey meat is not less, in the northern region almost every township will have one or two donkey meat restaurants, the business of better donkey meat restaurants sell 1 to 2 donkeys a day is not a big problem, the country calculates how many donkeys to consume a day? In addition to the donkey meat restaurant in the north, the south has also slowly begun to consume donkey meat, and now donkey meat has entered some large supermarkets and chain fresh stores, and the demand for donkey meat will only be more in the future.
Second, can raising donkeys make money?
Donkey breeding in the current industry can definitely make money, even if the donkey industry will make money when the price of donkeys is low before, but it only makes less money. In general, donkey breeding is a profitable industry, but it is also an industry with a long cycle, slow money and little money, otherwise it will not be the domestic donkey inventory decreasing year by year.
The following is the current donkey seedlings, fattening donkeys and hay markets, to give you a calculation of how much money can be made by raising a donkey?
1. Buy donkey seedlings
Now the price of donkey seedlings is very high, about 260 pounds of donkey seedlings basically to 28 yuan / catty, buy a donkey seedlings need 7280 yuan, if you count the brokerage fees, transportation costs, etc. when buying a donkey, a donkey at home is almost 7400 yuan.
2. The cost of hay
260 pounds of donkey seedlings to 500 pounds out of the pen almost 10 months, during the period need to consume about 2000 pounds of hay and 1000 pounds of concentrate, now the hay market price at 0.4 yuan / kg, with the concentrate market price of 1.4 yuan / kg, calculate the cost of hay for a donkey needs 2200 yuan.
3. Other costs
In addition, there are water and electricity, medicine, donkey house depreciation, labor and other costs, a donkey is almost 300 ~ 500 yuan, here we compromise according to 400 yuan calculation.
4. The price of donkeys
Now the market fattening donkey price is 23 ~ 24 yuan / catty, a fattening donkey of about 500 pounds can sell for 11500 ~ 12000 yuan.
5. Final benefits
Although the donkey price market is very good now, but after removing the cost of expenses, raising a donkey can only earn 1500 yuan in the end, compared with cattle, sheep and other breeding industries, the same investment in donkey production is the lowest.
