The market price of centipede

Abstract: centipedes are terrestrial arthropods. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that centipedes have the efficacy and function of extinguishing wind and relieving spasm, dredging collaterals and relieving pain, and have high medicinal value. due to the gradual shortage of wild resources, the price of centipedes has been high. Let's take a look at the market price and breeding prospect of centipede.

Centipede is a terrestrial arthropod. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that centipede has the efficacy and function of extinguishing wind and relieving spasm, dredging collaterals and relieving pain, and has high medicinal value. due to the gradual shortage of wild resources, the price of centipede has been high. Let's take a look at the market price and breeding prospect of centipede.

The market price of centipede

The current market price of centipedes is about 1.5-2.5 yuan per piece.

Season affects the market price of centipedes.

The centipede is dormant around the Qingming Festival from November to the following year, so January to April is the time when the centipede market supplies the least and the centipede price is the highest.

Mid-July is the season for a large number of centipedes on the market, and the price of centipedes will be lower than in April. Experts believe that if farmed centipedes can control the temperature of the centipede's growth environment and keep the centipedes from dormant and multiply twice a year, it may be able to stabilize the supply of centipedes in the market throughout the year, thus stabilizing the price of centipedes in the market.

The prospect of centipede culture

1. Aquaculture is easy: not only family farming, but also factory three-dimensional breeding

2. Strong fecundity: laying 50-80 eggs at a time, spawning 2-3 times a year in constant temperature culture.

3. Less food and a wide range of feed: generally, it can be fed for 2-3 days at a time, there is basically no diet during the spawning period, artificial bait can be cultured in large-scale culture, and only wheat bran, vegetable leaves, melons and fruits, insects, animal viscera, bone meal and so on are needed in natural culture. almost no cost.

4. strong disease resistance: strong adaptability, exuberant vitality, not easy to catch disease, absolutely no risk of avian influenza (chicken), foot-and-mouth disease (pig), mad cow disease (cattle).

5. Save labor and time: it is usually fed at 6-8 p.m., and can be raised in spare time.

6. Little investment: there is almost no investment except introduction. General family feeding can make use of empty houses, balconies, courtyards, front and back houses, and can be raised in tanks, boxes or ponds; large-scale farming can be raised in captivity or three-dimensional culture, growing green fodder and raising insects.

Culture benefit of centipede

Below, we take three groups of 600 centipedes as an example (each batch, each breed 60 centipedes per time) with a minimum reproduction rate of 60 centipedes.

1. Profit: 600x60x 2.0RMB = 72000 RMB (per batch)

2, cost: aquaculture feed is very extensive, general animal viscera, green vegetables, melons and fruits, vegetable market, restaurant, kitchen scraps can be, the cost is low. According to the calculation of feeding the yellow powder insects provided by our company, 3kg rice bran raises yellow powder insects 1kg, rice bran 1.2yuan per kilogram, 3kg 3.6yuan, and the average solar eclipse of 60g of the mother species amounts to 0.216 yuan.

The feeding cost of ① mother breeds per batch is 0.216 yuan × 90 days = 19.44 yuan.

The cost of 36000 pieces of food for ② larvae (the total food intake of larvae is less than that of the mother): 19.44 yuan × 60 times × 0.5cm 583.2 yuan.

③ labor cost (1 hour per day): 10 yuan / working day hour x 90 days = 900yuan.

④ (the introduction cost is 10800 yuan-the price of commercial insects is 1200 yuan after eight times of mother breeding) / 8200 yuan.

The construction cost of ⑤ aquaculture is 500yuan.

The cost of disinfection of ⑥ drugs is 50 yuan.

3. Comprehensive cost per batch: 19.44 million 583.2 million 900 dollars 1200 million 500 dollars 50 dollars 3252.64 (yuan)

4. The net profit per batch: 72000-3252.64 million 68747.36 (yuan). The above profit is calculated as each batch, if each batch is bred indoors for 4 times per year.

5. The annual profit is 68747.36 yuan × 4 million 274989.44 yuan.
