It can be seen that the medicinal value of this leech is high, and people's needs are also high. so if you raise leeches, what will be the market for leeches? Let's take a look.

Cost and profit of leech culture

1. The breeding cost of leeches is calculated on the basis of 5 mu of farming area, the leased land is about 0.3 ~ 4000 yuan, the base excavation is 4000 yuan, and the anti-escape net is 2500 yuan. Most of the bait can be raised by themselves, and the initial purchase cost is about 3000 yuan. 500 yuan for farm manure, 80,000 yuan for 250kg leeches, 12000 yuan for management and 200 yuan for disinfection. The water and electricity bill is 1500 yuan, with a total investment of about 100000 yuan. Of course, the size of the investment also determines the size of the breeding scale, and its breeding benefit does not depend on the size of the site, but on the leech seedlings put in per mu. Only when the leeches breed and the seedlings grow up can they gain weight.

2. If there is a farming area of one mu and planting 5000, the annual output value will be more than 9.13 million yuan of gross income, deducting facilities, bait and other net profit of about 100000 yuan, and the profit of 5 mu of farming will be as high as 500000 yuan. By using high density and intensive production, 1000 pieces of Fructus Aurantii were planted in 5U square meter noodles, and the annual output value could reach more than 25000 yuan. After deducting the costs of seedlings, feed and facilities, the profit of leech breeding was more than 20000 yuan.

Analysis on the Prospect of Leech Culture

1. At present, the market demand for leeches is increasing year by year, wild leech resources are exhausted year by year, local inventory supply is weak, and the gap between supply and demand is as high as more than 50%. These factors are the main reasons for the sharp rise in leech prices year after year.

2. A survey of 17 professional markets of traditional Chinese medicine shows that since 2000, the price of leeches has risen sharply year after year, from 150 yuan in 2002 to 160 yuan in 2003, 170 yuan in 2004, 180 yuan in 2005, 190 yuan in 2006, 200 yuan in 2007 and 230 yuan in 2008. From 2009 to 2011, the price of leeches soared continuously, rising to 380 yuan in 2009, 740 yuan in 2010, and 800,820 yuan in 2011.

Suggestions on the culture of leeches

1. If a young man starts a business with no working experience and no funds, he must obtain the support and understanding of his family. He must discuss with his family and the whole family will unite to do so. Only in this way can they have more long-term development.

2. Those who do not have the conditions to access the Internet and the ability to deal with emergencies are advised not to breed. In the information age, receiving, processing and understanding information is a very important investment ability, and poor acceptance and handling of information will lead to investment failure.

3. If there are local pollution sources, do not engage in leech breeding. The key factor for raising leeches is water, there is no good ecological water source, the acid and alkali are not up to standard, and the soil is not suitable. If forced breeding will only lead to investment failure, it is better to choose other investment projects.

4. if you want to plan the breeding time for breeding leeches, you will have to prepare for breeding leeches for a year and a half, or even two years later, unless you want to kill and process the leeches after they have laid eggs. At the same time, not all investments have a return, if there is no investment, there must be no return, this is the investment mentality that investors must have.
