First, the preparation before entering the business
1, market research
A. Investigate the consumer market to find out the local mutton consumption habits and what mutton is good to sell in the local market. Bohr and Du should not blindly follow the trend, but find the most suitable varieties for local breeding and sales. For example, Fujian likes Huanghuai white goat; Guangdong and Guangxi like black goats; Southerners don't like sheep and think the meat is fat, while northerners don't like southern goats and think the meat is too thick. Goat and mutton is the most popular food in central Jiangsu. Sales habits in different regions determine the market. Be sure to check the market demand before feeding. In fact, local sheep breeds should be the first choice for entry, and the so-called "excellent" breeds will be adopted only when the technical level is mature.
B. analyze local feed resources. The requirements for raising sheep are not high, but we should know what raw materials and straws can be used for raising sheep. The soldiers and horses did not move, and the food and grass went first. With grain and grass, especially forage, there must be sufficient sources, otherwise it will be very anxious once it is on the scale.
C. I understand that it is a veterinary level. Although raising sheep is a traditional industry, large-scale farming requires higher technology. If there is no animal husbandry and veterinary foundation, you must find corresponding technical support. Animal husbandry and veterinary personnel in the north have more contact with sheep, while veterinarians in the south know little about sheep. I have seen veterinarians raise their own sheep and kill a lot of them. Their advantage lies in pigs and chickens, and they know too little about sheep. Also, is there any sheep vaccine (sheep vaccinia vaccine, sheep triple vaccine (Clostridium welchii multiple vaccine), sheep contagious pleura pneumonia vaccine, and sheep brucellosis vaccine) commonly used in the local veterinary system?
2. Technical preparation
Raising sheep is different from raising pigs and chickens. Sheep have a special physiological structure, and there are many differences in feeding and feed. If there is no corresponding technical preparation, it may be completely annihilated. Technical preparation includes many contents, such as feeding management, feeding technology, feed technology, epidemic prevention technology, veterinary treatment and so on. It is recommended to participate in some technical training in the industry, and it is best to go to a sheep farm with a certain level for six months before starting work.
Be mentally prepared
Raising sheep, like other breeding projects, is risky, bitter, dirty and tired. If it's only for profit, don't get involved. If you don't really like raising sheep and animals, you'd better not get involved.
Two. introduce
1. Variety selection
The selection of varieties should be basically determined in the market investigation stage. It is suggested to choose local ram at the beginning of entry and introduce Boer goat after fattening for one or two years. If small-tailed Han sheep and sheep are raised, Dubo sheep can be introduced for hybridization.
2. Selection of variety sources
In the selection of breed sources, I suggest that you pay more attention, don't listen to rhetoric, don't be greedy and cheap, and introduce them to a regular sheep farm with good credit. Sheep advertisements in an eastern province are all over the internet, and stories of being cheated in sheep introduction are endless. Some sheep brokers are even entangled with the black forces and their reputation is getting bigger and bigger. It is recommended to be very cautious when guiding sheep!
3. The principle of introduction
Sheep that are not introduced from a long distance, especially those that are bred, need a long time to adapt. Sheep go from the north to the north, and their adaptability will be better, because they like dry and are afraid of wet. In recent years, a large number of Hu sheep have been introduced from the south to cross with Dubo sheep in Inner Mongolia and Xinjiang, and many successes have been achieved. Fattening sheep, because of its short growth period, has not been listed for a long time, and its adaptability is not obvious.
If the price of imported purebred sheep is high, you must know its pedigree.
4. Matters needing attention in the introduction
Imported cars are in good condition and will not break down on the road. The car should be equipped with water and appropriate amount of feed and forage, and the best feed and forage is in Harada.
It is best to choose late summer and early autumn for introduction, but it is not suitable for long-distance introduction after the first frost, and it is not suitable for introduction in rainy days.
Don't rush to feed and plant grass after a period of introduction. A few days ago, grass should be the main material. It is best to use the feed from the original farm within ten days, and then gradually change your own feed.
If there are any questions not involved, you can leave a message here. As for the feeding management after entry, this article will not make a statement, and listen to the next decomposition.
Specifically, you can go to sheep e to see.
