I don't know how you define the North and the South. Is it the Yangtze River as the boundary or the Qinling Mountains and the Huai River? However, as far as turtle farming is concerned, the north that everyone talks about seems to be the area except for the two Guangxi regions, which can be regarded as "north," and of course Hainan must be excluded.
Some turtle friends revealed that more and more turtle friends in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shanghai, Sichuan and Chongqing regions have also begun to enter the mode of breeding turtles in Guangzhou. Although we are not breeders for turtle investment, we probably know that the turtle investment cycle is relatively long. Growth is measured in years, and it takes a long time to raise a breeding turtle and produce benefits after laying eggs. But this more and more people are building greenhouses, and it doesn't look like a joke.
In this way, there will be more and more turtles in the future, will we enthusiasts really have benefits? Is it that the turtle market will have a virtuous circle in the future?
Because of the so-called "north", there are still many turtles suitable for raising box turtles, star spots, as well as wood carvings, Ou Ze and the like. Although this will lead to an increase in the price of turtles at the beginning, will the price be close to the people in the long run?
More and more provinces are getting involved in greenhouse and pond turtle farming. This phenomenon not only reflects the broad market prospects of turtle farming, but also triggers people's in-depth thinking about whether the turtle market can achieve a virtuous circle. We also want a virtuous circle, but is it really going to be benign? It's not a bit of a "miasma" right now.
Let's take a look at the driving forces behind this phenomenon. The rise of greenhouse turtle culture and pond culture of turtles is due to the advancement of technology and the reduction of breeding costs. Modern greenhouse technology can provide a good growth environment, improve the survival rate and growth rate of turtles, while pond culture can use natural resources, reduce labor inputs, and reduce breeding costs.
On the other hand, the market demand for turtle farming is also growing. Turtles are widely used as pets, medicinal herbs and ornamental animals, especially in some traditional cultures, turtles are regarded as a symbol of auspiciousness and longevity, so they have a high market value.
However, as more and more people join the ranks of turtle farming, we also have to face some potential problems and challenges, which are also worth considering.
The rapid growth of market demand may also lead to fluctuations in turtle prices. If the supply is much greater than the demand, the price of turtles can drop significantly, affecting the profitability of farmers. Although we consumers have benefited, it is not a virtuous circle.
How can we achieve a virtuous circle in the turtle market? Strengthen industry norms and supervision, and maintain market order? These are not the things we are considering.
Achieving a virtuous cycle in the turtle market is not something that can be achieved overnight, and requires the joint efforts and cooperation of multiple groups and departments.
Although more and more people in provinces are building greenhouses and ponding turtles, they are also facing many challenges and problems.
Of course, we hope that the development of the turtle market will be stable, so that it will not only be a guarantee for us enthusiasts, but also profitable for merchants in the long run. After not speculating on sky-high prices, someone has to be a pick-up man. It's certainly not a virtuous circle.
