What about frog farming prospects?

Frogs are amphibious animals with no tail, also known as frogs, toads, frogs, etc., with delicate meat, low fat and low sugar. It is rich in protein, carbohydrates, calcium, phosphorus, iron, vitamin A, B vitamins, vitamin C and other nutrients, but note that frogs are protected animals banned by the state. Let's take a look at the prospects of frog breeding.

What are the prospects for frog farming?

Frogs have always been a delicious food on the dinner table of urban and rural residents in China, but excessive illegal predation has led to a sharp decline in the number of wild frogs, coupled with the extensive use of chemical fertilizers, pesticides and industrial pollution in agriculture in recent years. As a result, the living condition of the frog population is worrying, and the natural output has been far from meeting the needs of the market, so frog farming can not only meet the consumption needs of people. It can also promote the recovery of natural wild resources and has certain market and industrial prospects.

Is the cost of frog farming high?

The total input cost in the first year of frog breeding is about 10 to 15000 yuan per mu, and there is no need for the facility cost, site construction and frog seedlings invested in the following second and third years. In the rest of the land, the feed cost of raising fly maggots and earthworms, as well as the electricity and labor costs invested to attract insects are about 8000 yuan per year. For example, the average annual investment is 8800 yuan per mu according to the three-year cycle.

Can frog farming really make money?

1. Infrastructure: frog culture ponds are mainly soil ponds, and one mu of rice fields can be transformed into three ponds with an area of about 200m2. The main cost of pond transformation is 1000 yuan, and the cost of eating platform and bird prevention net is about 300 yuan.

2. Introduction cost: artificial breeding frogs (black spot frog) need to be introduced from regular breeding units, and they also need to improve the breeding procedures. At present, the introduction cost per mu is about 3000 yuan.

3. Feed cost: the feed cost needed to raise a jin of frogs is 4.5 to 5 yuan. The feed cost is directly related to the survival rate and yield. According to the average yield of 2500 jin per mu, the feed cost needs 12500 yuan.

4. Disease prevention: any living body may get sick, and the cleanliness and hygiene of the breeding environment is very important. Artificially farmed frogs need regular disinfection, prevention of enteritis, etc., and need to prepare about 300 yuan of preventive drugs.

5. Breeding profit: the total cost of raising one mu of frogs is about 20000 yuan, and the output of 2500 jin of frogs can be calculated according to the current wholesale market price of 20 yuan per jin, which can be sold at 50000 yuan, with a net income of 30000 yuan per mu.
