Chapter 782 782. How to make money raising cattle
What Niu Jia talked about did not have those obscure professional terms, but was simple, easy to understand, and straightforward. Even a layman like Song Tan could now think of the general idea in his mind. Variety matched.
After thinking about it, she asked curiously: "That kind of Wagyu beef, what kind of snowflake beef, what kind of cattle are they?"
The ones she raised cannot be worse than Wagyu beef!
This time it was Niu Ben's turn to explain: "Don't listen to the nonsense of people who are living a good life! Why do you get snowflake beef when you listen to music and drink beer? People who drink alcohol also get fatty liver, so Niu Is it okay to drink it every day?”
"Snowflake beef means that there are marble patterns on the beef. As long as the intramuscular fat of the cow exceeds 10%, it will appear. As long as the feed ratio is appropriate for the three types of cattle that Jiajia just mentioned, they will all grow!"
"You take the cows back and let them be free-range in spring, summer and autumn. In winter, the feed will be adjusted when the weather is cold to ensure that the meat is of good quality!"
At this time, Yan Ran was also listening intently, camera As I was taking pictures, I kept remembering the key points.
After thinking about it, Niu Ben said again: "Teacher Song said that your family still has a farm, right? Do you need cattle to plow the land? If necessary, I also recommend these three types, all of which can reproduce. You can still work hard to grow meat. ”
“As long as you don’t get too tired, the meat will grow more slowly. In fact, the meat will be firmer and more flavorful.”
Song Tan thought for a while, there was work, but was it necessary to use an ox? Not very useful.
But since these three types of cattle are the most common in the entire pasture, these three types must still be suitable.
She looked at Professor Song and listened to the professionals throughout the process.
Professor Song laughed loudly: "I just told you to bring Tantan here. Some experience cannot be accumulated without seeing it with your own eyes."
"Niu Ben, Tantan's house is free The place where Niu lives is a river beach. The area is not as big as here, but it is still a hundred acres. However, after removing more than ten acres of tidal flats and reeds, the usable area is far from what you have.”
"Just tell her what the arrangement is?"
"It's not too small!" Niu Ben had a plan:
"The river beach is good, moist and gentle, and the land is nutritious. Rich and well maintained, this resource is more important than cattle!"
But now...
He stopped the car: "It's already noon, let's eat first!"
Yan Ran immediately touched her stomach in distress.
......
Niuben's pasture covers more than 300 acres. The terrain is gentle and slightly sloping, with pastures and weeds mixed with seeds. Now the wind in early autumn has caused the green color to be deep. Deep and shallow, ups and downs.
The air is filled with the freshness of the wilderness and the unavoidable smell of cow dung.
There is no other way. There are nearly 300 acres of pasture, with 200 adult cattle and more than 100 calves. In total, there are about 300 cattle. Even if people often come to purchase, they will be filled soon.
Even if he took care of it carefully, it would be difficult to completely freshen the air.
But overall, it is still a quiet countryside.
There were only a few of them at the dinner table, and Niu Ben didn't notice anyone else: "The workers were paid today, and my wife went over there."
"Are there any workers?" Song Tan was curious: "How many people are needed to raise cattle?"
Niu Ben shook his head: "You don't need many people to raise cattle, as long as you can ensure that no one will destroy or steal."
"But, for such a big pasture, as I said before, resources are more important than cattle. This is not nonsense."
While pouring Professor Song a glass of wine, he slowly explained: "For example, I This pasture is a registered farm company with all the qualifications. It’s quite troublesome to run this project. The project is too complicated.”
“Once the qualifications are obtained, the next step is to raise cattle in the spring, summer and autumn. All kinds of grass are spread freely, and the cattle can eat them freely. But if they are raised like this, the air will be good and the mood will be good, so will the cattle be bad?"
"This is why our cattle rarely get sick. "One of the reasons."
Speaking of this, Niu Ben quickly poured wine for Niu Jia: "Of course, Jiajia also contributes a lot to giving them disease prevention medicine!" When the children inside heard the noise, they clapped their hands and burst into laughter: "Allison! Allison!"
Professor Song couldn't help but laugh: "Well, what a good name."
Niu Jia looked numb.
Niu Ben held the cups and the three of them touched each other, and soon returned to the topic:
"In addition, we are raising cattle, but there is an old saying that you must believe. That is, if you have a lot of wealth, Those with fur don’t count.”
"Raising cattle, you can't just watch and make money, you also have to be prepared not to make money - Boss Xiao Song, I don't sound good, but it is true."
In fact, this is true, livestock Even if you don't get sick, once you develop a serious infectious disease, you may be in vain for a whole year.
It’s just like raising chickens and pigs.
Therefore, Niu Ben also has other ways to increase his income:
“In my pasture, there is a fixed area where high-yielding forage is planted every year, and a workshop for processing and storage, which is used to prepare winter forage for cattle. .”
This coincides with Professor Song’s arrangement!
Song Tan looked at Professor Song, and it was hard to tell that this was not Niu Ben’s experience.
“In addition, there is an area where I planted other grass species. One is cat grass. Do you know cat grass? Wheat grass, barley grass, oat seedlings, etc., and cat grass. Mint. Processed into powder or cat grass particles, the market is hot!"
Huh? Pet market? Song Tan didn't expect this.
She was very excited.
Looking at Yan Ran, she didn't even bother to eat (mainly because she hadn't finished digesting her breakfast). She just sat on the side and clicked on her notebook. She was obviously too busy writing down information.
Niu Ben tried to persuade her again and again but failed, and now she became proud: "There are also food rations for grass-eating pets such as rabbits and chinchillas, such as Timothy grass, alfalfa, fruit tree grass and the like."< br>
“This kind of pet, even though there are not many people around it, is actually very profitable.”
If he didn’t keep breed cattle here, he might not have any cat or dog food. Freeze-dried food is all packed.
Song Tan was amazed.
No wonder Professor Song insisted on bringing her here. These experiences are not face-to-face, who can say so much!
However, when raising cattle on the riverbank, there is another point to note compared to the pasture here:
“You need to have a big fermentation tank next to it. Why, because there is a lot of cow and sheep feces. I It doesn’t matter here. If you want to clean it, just clean it. If you don’t want to, just farm it. Anyway, the place is big and spacious, and it won’t affect the rapid decomposition.” It’s different now. With scientific breeding, one hundred and ten are more than enough.”
“How can you not clean up the excrement with so many cattle and sheep?”
"But it's different next to the river. The water vapor is moist and the feces is not easy to dry. In addition, when it rains, the feces will be slowly washed into the river."
"The water body by the river will be too fertile by then. Not only will It is easy to stink, it is not good to raise fish, and it is not good for cows to drink water.”
“Build a fermentation tank and ferment the cow and sheep dung separately. If you want to use it in your own land, you can use it. If you don’t want to, sell it. !"
He said sincerely: "I'm telling you, there are too many people in the city planting flowers and fields now, and there are many people buying the fermented cow and sheep dung into pellets!"
"Look! , raise a cow, we can make more money than just the cow!”
Update three, surprise!
Good afternoon, have a nice weekend, no more tonight.
I have read information about raising cattle on pasture and asked cattle raisers, including the quantity. If you have other opinions, please feel free to discuss them actively.
Let’s brainstorm and build our home bit by bit!
The river beach is now very big, but not big enough, but in the future, the family's wealth will be expanded step by step. Take your time.
