The prospect of baby fish culture

Giant salamander is the largest and most precious amphibian in the world. Its cry is very similar to the cries of young children, so people also call it "baby fish". It is the second class of aquatic wild animals protected by the state, the key developed species of agricultural industrialization and characteristic agriculture, and the genetic protected species of wild animals. Chinese giant salamander is distributed in other provinces except *, Xizang, Inner Mongolia and Taiwan, mainly in the mountain streams of the Yangtze River, the Yellow River and the upper and middle reaches of the Pearl River.

The prospect of giant salamander culture as a characteristic culture project

The traditional agriculture and aquaculture industry presents a bad situation that supply exceeds demand because of its low technical content, low economic benefits, high input and low output. The industrialization development of giant salamander can organize farmers to engage in commodity breeding of giant salamander, and the products are recycled by the company according to the market price. for example, if each household breeds 100 giant salamanders, the net profit can reach more than 50,000 yuan a year later. This is one of the effective ways to develop rural economy and increase farmers' income to shake off poverty and become rich. At present, the relevant giant salamander farming units have applied for the support of the national industrialization project, which will be developed as a characteristic farming project in rural areas.

Giant salamander culture is suitable for farming in rural areas.

Rural areas are rich in water sources, and most of them are natural mountain spring water, with good water quality and many natural baits, which can save bait costs. To implement the industrialization of giant salamander farming, farmers can breed in their spare time at home, the labor intensity is not big, the investment is not much, and can absorb a large number of urban and rural labor employment. With the industrialization of giant salamander breeding, it will provide a large number of raw materials for meat processing industry, wine industry, cosmetics industry and so on, and promote the development of various industries. At the same time, as an export variety, giant salamander will open the international market and win greater business opportunities, create greater commercial value and promote the development of trade.

There are broad prospects for giant salamander culture.

The national giant salamander breeds (artificial reproduction and imitating ecological reproduction) the annual production of young seedlings is about 200000. According to the most conservative estimate, 34 provincial cities in China consume 10 tons per year, 340 tons in the whole year; 333 prefecture-level cities consume 1 ton per city each year, 333 tons; and 2862 county-level cities consume 5 tons per county each year, 1431 tons. The total consumption in the country is more than 2000 tons. If domestic sales and exports are expanded, the demand and transaction volume will be huge. The seedlings of the whole year are calculated according to the survival rate of 90%. After three years of breeding, each tail is 2.5kg, then 450t of commercial giant salamander is produced, accounting for only 1/5 of the consumption.

The prospect of giant salamander culture is huge.

As the stock of wild giant salamander resources is very small, on the verge of extinction, and the reproduction rate is low, therefore, seizing the sharp decline of resources, the development opportunity of commercial breeding of giant salamander and huge market demand at home and abroad has not yet been formed to develop commercial breeding of giant salamander. Will produce huge social and economic benefits. Giant salamander is the second class of national protected wild animals, breeding giant salamander needs to apply for aquatic wild animal domestication and breeding license, so the competition is small. According to the relevant laws and regulations, the second generation of baby fish can be listed on the market and can also apply for an export license for giant salamander from the Aquatic Wildlife Protection Office of the Ministry of Agriculture. After comparing and analyzing the market development prospects of water fish (soft-shelled turtle eight dance fish and giant salamander culture), we find that baby fish culture is unlimited business opportunities.

1. Soft-shelled turtle market: at present, the domestic annual output exceeds 2 million kg. The yield of seedlings exceeds 10 million a year. Soft-shelled turtle is a species that can be cultivated by everyone, and it is highly competitive. In addition, the production of soft-shelled turtle is also large in Taiwan Province and Thailand, so the soft-shelled turtle market soon becomes saturated. The time for farmed soft-shelled turtle is short, from 600 yuan 7 kg at the high price to 50 yuan per kilogram now, only 2-3 years.

2. Sturgeon market: at present, the domestic output can reach 300000 kg, and because of the large number of breeding seedlings, the number of seedlings produced by each group of parents is not less than 20, 000 ~ 50, 000, so commercial fish and seedlings are saturated in 1 year or 2 years. Commercial Sturgeon from the high price of 400 yuan per kilogram to the current 40 yuan per kilogram, only 1 year 2 years.

3, giant salamander market: the annual output of legal listing in China is less than 2000 kilograms, the price of baby fish is about 1500 yuan per jin, and the annual output of seedlings is less than 150000. The rate of sexual maturity is low, and the number of seedlings produced in each group is only 100 to 300. The annual output of seedlings will not exceed 500000 in the next 10 years. In addition, Southeast Asian countries and Taiwan Province of China do not have giant salamander resources, therefore, these countries and regions can not develop commercial salamander culture. The market demand of giant salamander commercial fish is 3 million ~ 5 million kg per year, and the annual demand of giant salamander seedling market is not less than 500000. Thus it can be seen that the giant salamander is the seller's market, and the demand exceeds the supply in the next 10 years.

Although giant salamander culture has great benefits and market development prospects, but breeders should also pay attention to the investment in giant salamander breeding projects are generally more than 500000 yuan, breeding technology is difficult. It is suggested that starting from breeding, cultivate their own salamander, so as to reduce the cost of investment. Breeding giant salamander introduction must sign a legally effective contract, and must go to the regular giant salamander breeding farm to introduce, it is best to ask the giant salamander technical staff to introduce. At the same time, when signing the introduction contract, the supplier must be required to indicate that the seedlings supplied are giant salamanders, because there are many fake giant salamanders that ordinary people will not recognize. Small capitalists can specialize in seedling breeding, which can be sold when they are raised for 3 years to 1.5 to 2.5 kilograms.
