Since the 20 years of cattle and sheep prices raised last year, farmers have made money, many people have begun to envy the no, watching others raise sheep, raise cattle, raise pigs to make money, do not raise their own, but also have to raise to make a lot of money.
But such a person, all of them have committed a breeding taboo, that is, they only see the results of others, they do not see the process of others, they only see how much others earn, how much they earn, but they do not see how much he has paid for these incomes, and the most important thing is that he has not considered his actual situation in the end, which does not conform to raising sheep and cattle, and blindly began, not remembering the cost, not considering whether he will, anyway, others make money, they will also make money.
This is not, chatting with friends today, he said that today carefully calculated the account, last year went out to work, it was not easy to find a job, only earned thirty or forty thousand yuan, but also put twenty thousand yuan to let people cheat, think about it and regret it, so he decided not to go out this year, raise sheep in his hometown.
He said that he contacted a sheep farm, said to him that the price is about 1800-2000 yuan for lambs, keep it as a ewe, ask me if I can raise it, how much profit will it be? At that time, I was very surprised to hear that this was a proper cutting of leeks, and later I also persuaded my friends that such sheep were best not to buy.
So let's take this matter of friends, let's talk about whether the lamb bought back in 1800-2000 can be kept as a ewe in the end?
I said above, when I heard this sentence, I was shocked, and also advised him not to buy, you will understand what I mean, the answer is very simple, that is, the price of sheep is too expensive, for novices, the early stage is not at all profitable.
I myself am also a sheep farmer, although there is not much breeding, but the price of sheep is a little bit of understanding and concern, such as our hometown area, this year's sheep price has been very high, ordinary farmers breed and sell lambs, that is, about 30-50 pounds of look, has been the price of 600 ~ 1000 yuan range, and the price of a large ewe is also around 1500-2000, rams may be slightly higher, But it is not to say that a lamb will reach the price of an adult ewe for 1800-2000 yuan.
The mother lamb must be pregnant at least seven or eight months to be able to do, like the farmer generally sell the mother lamb, is three or five months of lamb, this you buy back, you have to feed for a long time, this time period, not only to spend a certain cost, but also to spend energy and time, so this cost will increase.
Breeding for a few months to pregnancy, in the gestation period of more than 150 days to give birth, this is almost a year's time, and most of the sheep's first litter is 1-2, do not consider the impact of other factors, if you 1800 yuan to buy lambs as ewes, not to mention profits, maybe you have to invest a lot of money in it.
If you do not plan to raise sheep for a long time, at such a price into the sheep, there is no two or three years, it is not even the cost can not be recovered, if you want to make money, you must be prepared for long-term breeding.
Finally, I would also like to give a few suggestions to friends who want to start raising sheep:
First: fully consider your own actual situation before raising sheep, do not blindly impulsive;
Second: when you start raising sheep, you must learn to persevere, and do not shrink back when you encounter difficulties;
Three: raise sheep as much as possible to choose a breed of multi-breed sheep that suits their locality;
Four: before raising sheep, you must see clearly, you must not buy a sick sheep back, that will only make you suffer losses;
Fifth: sheep breeding must also do a good job in disease prevention and safety risk control, and be prepared to bear risks.
Raising sheep is not easy, and you must be cautious when moving forward.
