Is it profitable to raise cattle? This is a topic that many friends who want to return to their hometown to start a business are very concerned about. For other breeding, I think raising cattle in the countryside is still a good choice. If you can do the following, raising cattle can also make money, at least better than part-time work.
First, before catching cattle, you must confirm your breeding mode, ideas and direction. For example, whether to raise fattening cattle or breeding cows.
Second, don't go too far to buy cattle when buying cattle, and don't buy small cattle to raise back. Because there is a stress reaction, once it is not handled well, it is easy to get sick, which will cause certain losses. In addition, do not be greedy for cheap when buying cattle, must be in line with market conditions, do not think that the cheaper the better.
Third, ordinary people should not spend a lot of money to introduce the cow house when raising cattle, as long as it can cover the wind and rain.
Fourth, whether it is captivity or stocking, do not blindly pursue the best varieties, the largest quantity. Like just starting to raise about 20 heads, it is very good to be able to take care of it and be able to go out smoothly.
Fifth, the problem of concentrate feed and roughage needs to be solved. In the north, corn stalks, wheat stalks, and peanut stalks are relatively common, and they can be used to save money. Feed can grow some corn. Friends in the south can grow a little perennial high-yield pasture, plant a year and harvest more than ten years, and raise 3-5 cattle per acre. In this way, concentrate feed and roughage do not have to spend money to buy, and the risk is relatively small.
Sixth, we must continue to learn the knowledge of breeding.
Seventh, whether it is to raise fattening cattle or breeding cows, sometimes it is still necessary to use the breeding mix, and remember to regularly deworm throughout the year.
Eighth, we must have our own business philosophy. No matter how good the breed is, it is difficult to sell the cattle.
If you can do the above points, you will also gain something in cattle breeding. Pay attention to the beard and raise the cow together.
