Chapter 784 784 Three Calves
Chapter 784 784. Three calves
Although what Boss Niu said makes sense, the matter of introducing customers...
Song Tanwan refused: "That's not necessary. I have plenty of customers. If you need it, I can also help introduce some. As for quality... So far, our quality has not been doubted."
Really? So confident? And there are plenty of customers?
Boss Niu is very suspicious.
Whose customers are not hidden like treasures? If it weren't for Teacher Song's concern for him, he would never say such a heartfelt word!
Now it's good, I met someone who is even crazier than him.
Who knows that Professor Song nodded: "This customer and quality are indeed not a problem. She still has this strength. Niu Ben, you can arrange 70 or 80 cows."
Professor Song said so, Niu Ben became more curious. But thinking about those tea leaves, it seems that there is really no need to worry.
He only sells a calf for two or three thousand yuan, while other people's half a catty of tea is 25,000 yuan and there is still no market.
He couldn't help but laugh at himself for showing off his knowledge in front of an expert.
Then he became serious: "Okay, let's talk about cows - come, let's talk about fodder before we look at cows."
"Look at this trough, it has a certain depth. If you keep cows in the pen in winter, you need to mix feed. You have to pay attention to this. Make sure it is even when you crush it."
He took everyone around the cowshed: "Cows are not stupid. Fodder can be divided into sweet and bad tasting ones. If you don't crush them evenly, they will choose the one they like to eat. This way, the nutrition is unbalanced, and they won't grow meat well in winter."
Professor Song listened silently.
Yan Ran took notes crazily.
Song Tan: ...Although it is unlikely to happen, she still has to learn it.
"Then there is the quarantine area."
"People will get sick if they eat grains, and so will cows. But because there is ventilation on the top of our cowshed, we can avoid infection as much as possible, so this quarantine area has to be arranged in another direction."
He led everyone: "You see, it is usually chosen in this corner, and the ventilation outlet is at the window, not at the top."
In this quarantine area, there are three little yellow cows in the corner, and they are quiet when they see people coming, and their big eyes are a little dull.
"So well behaved..."
Yan Ran cautiously moved closer: "Are they seriously ill?"
"That's not the case." Niu Ben was helpless: "I don't know when the fence on one side of my pasture broke, and these three naughty ones ran out."
That's someone's vegetable field, and they just sprayed medicine. If they eat it, it will be bad.
The calf came back and vomited and had an IV. Now his stomach is damaged and his spirit is poor. He can't recover in a year. I'm afraid he has to deal with it early.
They are also greedy. For such a large vegetable field, the cow boss has to pay money.
"Anyway, this is how business works. There are always various situations."
Yan Ran was a little curious: "Since it takes a long time to raise them, and the life span of cattle is long, why not raise them for a few more years before selling them?"
Niu Jia, who had been silent, explained:
"My brother raises cattle to make money. Now it is difficult to sell such weak calves at a big sale - in the past, if you buy them back to plow the fields, someone might be willing to raise them for two years first."
"Keep them in your hands. Raising them for two years means that they won't grow in one or two years. How much grass can they eat in two years? This is all cost."
Healthy calves have been sold for more than 10,000 yuan, more than 5,000 yuan, more than 3,000 yuan, and occasionally 2,000 yuan, mainly depending on weight, physique and robustness.
Caged cattle will be cheaper, and the price is different in each region. Now that he has a good reputation, he wins by selling in large quantities, so the price is not that high.
So let's do the math. How much does this cow have to sell at a big sale before people are willing to raise it for two years?
Then again, these two calves are about 300 pounds each, and the meat yield is about half. If they are sold at a low price, it is better to slaughter them and eat the meat yourself.
Raising cattle is more or less different every year, and Niu Ben is familiar with it.
Even Niu Jia, who helps the cattle with medical treatment whenever he is at home during holidays, can now talk about it clearly.
"Besides, we all know that the toxins will be vomited out quickly in the stomach, and the rest can be metabolized, but customers don't know. If they have money, they will definitely buy health."
So, these three cows still need to be dealt with early.
Song Tan thought to herself, it's really a pillow for someone to send when he is sleepy! Her Song family is suitable for such calves!
Others are afraid of her, but not her. These three cows will be raised and kept for her family to eat!
So he asked enthusiastically: "How much is this calf?"
Niu Ben was surprised: "These three?"
"Yes," Song Tan said confidently: "Didn't you say we were going to have a big sale? I'm willing to raise it for two years."
"How are you going to sell it?"
Niu Ben looked at Professor Song, then at Song Tan: "You pick the cows?"
Isn't this girl a novice in raising cows? I'm afraid she's just learned the knowledge.
Song Tan shook his head: "What's the specific matching method? You can discuss with Professor Song about what kind of cow to buy, I'm only responsible for paying. But these three cows can be bought extra."
Niu Ben: ...
See, she's really a novice, probably because the two girls felt sorry for the calf...
He kindly changed the subject and took everyone to the pasture, chatting while looking for cows:
"We have more than 100 mu of river beach. If we remove more than 10 mu of reed beach, we will have 100 mu left. We will have another 10 to 20 mu to plant forage grass..."
Niu Ben calculated: "Okay. 80 mu of land is more than enough for 70 calves. Didn't Professor Song say that he wanted to raise some sheep? We can have 40 to 50 sheep."
"As for these 70 calves, my suggestion is 40 Luxi yellow cattle, 20 Jiaxian red cattle, and 10 Simmental cattle."
Niu Ben explained in detail. The mainstream of the market is still yellow cattle, so it is safer to raise more.
"I will match you with three females and seven males of Simmental cattle. Because the advantage of this cattle as breeding cattle is greater than selling them directly."
"Luxi yellow cattle and Jiaxian red cattle... Professor Song, do you plan to sell them within a year to make a profit, or do you plan to raise them slowly?"
As they were talking, they were approaching a calf. Niu Ben touched its back and explained:
"If you want to sell it and get your money back in the same year, then choose more bulls. As long as the feed ratio is appropriate, bulls will grow very fast and can be sold in one year."
"If you want to make a long-term profit, then let's choose more cows. Cows give birth once a year, and in a few years, you can get your money back even if you don't sell them."
It's just a lot of effort, and the timeline is relatively long.
Professor Song thought about it, and suddenly looked at Song Tan happily again:
"Which meat is more delicious, bulls or cows?"
Every time before writing, I have to look at what I just wrote... When it comes to memory, I can't even compare with fish.
Popular science: fish have a memory of more than seven seconds. Just like if a hedgehog's thorns are pierced by fruit, they will most likely not think there is food, but die...
As for feed, the data source is still CCTV Agricultural Channel.
As for price, the price is different in each region and time period, and the price is affected by whether it is raised in a pen, raised in the wild, and the breed of cattle. For example, the price of 2,000 yuan per head mentioned before is also true. The price of more than 10,000 yuan per head is also true.
The average price of calves in China recently is 17 yuan per catty.
There may be no update today, so good night in advance.
