Calculation of breeding cost of native chicken

Because most of them are stocked in forests or orchards, which is closer to the requirements of green environmental protection, they are more favored by consumers. For farmers with certain conditions, the cost of raising native chickens is relatively low, which is suitable for family breeding, but the breeding cycle is long, generally about 6 months for adults. How to calculate the breeding cost of native chickens?

Cost estimate of native chicken breeding

Ecological native chicken can reach 2.5-3.5 jin/chicken in 90-100 days, and it can be sold. However, in order to ensure meat quality, it generally needs to be raised for 4 months, and the cost of a chicken is about 15 yuan.

The detailed accounting is as follows: Raising an ecological native chicken comes on the market after 4 months, weighing about 2.5-3 jin, and the required feed is divided into grains.(Rice, corn, wheat, sweet potato, soybean meal, leek, carrot and vegetable leaves can be used) 6 jin, i.e. 6 yuan according to 1 yuan/1 jin, 3 jin of yellow mealworm, 1.5 yuan per catty cost of self-raising, 4.5 yuan per catty, 3 jin of fly maggot, 0.5 yuan/1 jin cost of self-raising chicken manure, 1.5 yuan for 3 jin, 1.5 yuan for 5 jin of green vegetables (no money for self-planting or picking vegetable leaves), 2 yuan/chicken seedling hatching by itself, 0.2 yuan for each vaccine, total: 15.8 yuan.

Estimated Investment Cost of Native Chicken Breeding

1. How much money does it cost to raise chickens? This is related to the size of your breeding range. Take 500 native chickens per month and 5000 chickens per year as an example. It takes 26,800 - 29,800 yuan; in rural areas, if you have food at home, the initial investment is only 6800 yuan, up to 10000 yuan. Raising 5000 chickens a year is enough to prepare 1500 chickens in three months. If 1500 native chickens use greenhouse skills to build chicken sheds, the cost is 1500 yuan;1500 native chicken seedlings 3000-6000 yuan; raising 1500 chickens requires 200 boxes of yellow mealworms, 200 boxes of yellow mealworms need 2000 yuan, 1500 chickens need 20000 yuan of chicken feed, 1500 chickens vaccine cost 300 yuan, the total investment is about 26800-29800 yuan.

500 chickens are raised every month, 5000 chickens are produced annually, and the annual net profit is about 70,000 - 100,000 yuan.

2. How many chickens can be raised in one mu of land has a lot to do with your breeding essentials, breeding skills, and your breeding environment. Theoretically speaking, a chicken's activity space of 0.25 square meters can be calculated, at least 2600 chickens can be raised on one mu of land. At present, the country's professional chicken farmers, more free grazing methods, generally 200-500 chickens per mu breeding. However, if the ecological chain is used for captive grazing, more than 1000 animals can be cultured per mu after probiotic treatment, and 1000 is appropriate.

Native chickens need stocking, from the above can be seen that the disadvantage of raising native chickens is that they occupy a large area. However, due to ecological, safe, pollution-free, good taste, the price is more than 2 times higher than that of feed chickens, and the eggs laid are more than 2 times higher than that of captive chickens, and they are very popular. For the vast number of rural personnel in our country, it is not a disadvantage to raise native chickens in large area. In rural forest land, grassland, orchard, sand and wasteland, we can raise them, but we must pay attention to preventing natural enemies such as rats.

Analysis of chicken profits

One chicken seedling is about 2 yuan. The feed consumed from chicken hatching to commercial chicken production is 14-15 yuan. It can be sold in four months, with the lowest price reaching 2.5-3 jin. The commercial chicken is sold at 10 yuan for 1 jin in batches, i.e. 3/jin *10/yuan =30 yuan. Excluding 2 yuan for chicken seedling and 15 yuan for feed, the total is 17 yuan. The net profit of raising a commercial native chicken: 30-17=13 yuan. According to the investment of 500 chickens, the cost required: 500 chickens need 500/only *2/yuan =1000 yuan; feed needs 15 yuan/only *500/only =7500 yuan, a total investment of 8500 yuan; another 500 chicken house construction needs 500 yuan, 500 chickens total investment of about 10000 yuan. Net profit ranged from 5000 to 10000.

Specific analysis of feed input

In addition, feed input accounts for about 70% of the total input cost. Taking 500 chickens as an example, if calculated according to the four parts of feed cost input: 160 kg of complete pellet feed is required in the early stage of brooding (0-26 days old), the feed cost is 160×1.85=296 yuan according to the feed price of 1.85 yuan/kg; After 30 days of incubation (27-56 days old), the chicks were fed with self-prepared complete feed, and the feed cost was 30×0.06×500×1.2=1080 yuan, calculated by feeding 0.06 kg feed per day and feed price of 1.2 yuan/kg. During the breeding period of 94 days (57-150 days old), the feed cost is 94×0.05×500×1.1=2585 yuan based on 0.05 kg feed per day and the feed price is 1.1 yuan/kg. During the laying period of 215 days, the feed cost is 215×0.075×500×1.2=9675 yuan based on 0.075 kg feed per day and the feed price is 1.2 yuan/kg. The total feed cost is 296+1080+2585+9675=13636 yuan.

Chicken needs equipment

Brooding houses, feed tanks, feed cylinders (of different specifications), feed trays, drinking fountains (of different sizes), materials needed for infrastructure, heating and insulation tools, ventilation tools, injectors, nets, vaccines, other labor tools, circuits and other tools, chicken cages or turnover boxes (used for temporary catching chickens), transport vehicles (for pulling feed or grain to feed chickens), straw curtains (for insulation, thermometers, moisture meters, scales, beaks and other necessary tools.
