Forty-eight 4-month-old ewes and 2 7-month-old rams can be selected for raising 50 sheep. Four-month-old ewes need to be raised to the age of 6-7 months before the oestrus mating period, pregnancy period of 5 months, breast milk period of 2 months, fattening period of 3 months, a total of 12 months, let's take a look at how much money is earned by raising 50 sheep a year.

The investment cost of raising 50 sheep

1. The cost of breeding sheep: 4-month-old ewes are 1300 yuan per ewe, 48 × 1300 yuan = 62400 yuan, and ram 2 × 3000 yuan = 6000 yuan, which adds up to 68400 yuan.

2. The cost of sheep shed: the area of sheep house for 50 sheep is about 50 square meters, the counterfeiting of ordinary sheep house is about 200 yuan per square meter, and the cost of sheep house for 50 sheep is 10000 yuan.

3. Feed cost: the average daily feeding cost of each sheep and the discount of the ratio of coarse and concentrate fodder is 0.80 yuan per day, and the feed cost in 12 months is 50 sheep * 365 days * 0.8 yuan = 14400 yuan.

4. The total cost: the cost of raising 50 sheep is 68400 yuan + 10000 yuan + 14400 yuan = 92800 yuan.

How much money can you make by raising 50 sheep?

1. Lamb income: according to the calculation of 3 ewes per year, the survival rate is 80%. It is sold as a breeder sheep at 1000 yuan each, and the income from raising 50 lambs is 315,200 yuan.

2. The profit of the first year: the income of lambs is 115200 yuan-breeding cost 92800 yuan = 22400 yuan, and the income of raising 50 sheep in the first year is 22400 yuan.

3. The next year's profit: it is no longer necessary to buy breeding sheep and build sheep house in the next year, and the profit is 115200 yuan for lamb income-14400 yuan for breeding cost = 100800 yuan.

How can we reduce the cost of raising sheep?

1, feed selection: compared with straw, seedlings and other forage, feed is more expensive after all, usually give nutritional supplement and phased increase of refined supplement can not only reduce the cost as much as possible, but also meet the growth of sheep, go on the market ahead of time, lock in profits and withdraw funds.

2. Reasonable breeding: the breeding sheep does not lie in the number, but in the quality, so that the poor breeding rams can be inferior, eliminated or out of the fence in time, so that the quality of the sheep can be improved. If necessary, artificial insemination can be learned, which can greatly improve the utilization rate of breeding rams and reduce the number of breeding.

3. Reasonable fattening: it is suitable for 2 to 3 months, and the fattening time should be flexibly controlled according to the fatness of fattening sheep. In the green grass period, the poor adult sheep can be grazed and raised in the grassy slope, and the sheep can be fattened and then fattened by grass, which can save feed and reduce the cost.

4. Self-breeding: if there are good breeds of rams and ewes, they can be self-propagated and self-bred. At the same time, make full use of the advantages of hybridization, the common hybridization modes are binary hybridization, ternary hybridization, backcross, terminal hybridization and so on. The hybrid offspring can absorb the advantages of male and female parents, and the method is simple and feasible.

6. Improve your skills: it is better to ask for help than to ask yourself, see more and learn more every day, and learn more about some common problems, such as lamb delivery, basic sheep disease identification, what is the harm of inbreeding, and so on, which are closely related to the actual benefits. I'm sure it won't do you any harm if you learn more!
