Wang Weiwei: scientific breeding to find a way to get rich

In Yanglang Village, Touying Town, Yuanzhou District, there is a courtyard covering an area of 15 mu, five standardized cattle sheds are neatly arranged, and the breeding area, forage area, and manure treatment area are readily available. This is the Weiwei family farm. Farmer Wang Weiwei has become a well-known local cattle farmer.

Wang Weiwei, who is in his 30s, has worked as a carpenter and worked as a small labourer. He has done a lot of hard work, but he doesn't earn much money. Yanglang Village has a tradition of raising cattle, and the hardships of starting a business outside made Wang Weiwei think of going back to his hometown to raise cattle. In 2014, he used hundreds of thousands of yuan saved from years of working and cobbled together to build a farm of thousands of square meters. At that time, the beef market was good, and Wang Weiwei earned the first bucket of gold in raising cattle. After that, with the help of the government, he set up Weiwei Family Farm and embarked on the road of raising cattle scientifically.

In the process of raising cattle, Wang Weiwei often consulted experts and had a video conversation with city and county breeding experts through the call center for agriculture, rural areas and farmers set up in the village. After groping, he changed from a layman to an expert in raising cattle.

There are more than 100 cattle in the family farm, mainly Qinchuan cattle and Red Angus cattle. According to the characteristics and production goals of different populations and different growth and development stages, Wang Weiwei formulated nutrition standards, established standardized production technical regulations from cow breeding to calf breeding and beef cattle fattening and organized their implementation. "the daily feeding cost of each fattening cow is controlled at about 14 yuan, and the daily gain is controlled at about 1.5 kg." Wang Weiwei elaborated on the daily routine of raising cattle. "if you want to raise cattle well, you must raise them scientifically." I insist on using grass feed to achieve a bright spot of saving cost and increasing efficiency. I put the whole corn and corn straw into the feed machine to make feed, and then add a small amount of distiller's grains, so as to ensure the absorption of nutrients. "

There is no waste of manure produced by cattle farms every day. Wang Weiwei uses cow dung accumulation ponds to slowly ferment cow manure into fertilizer and return it to the field, so as to realize the resource utilization of manure.

Through scientific breeding, Wang Weiwei sold nearly 100 cattle last year with an income of more than 200,000 yuan. When he became rich, he did not forget his fellow villagers. After the surrounding farmers transferred their land to the farm, they could not only get a fixed land transfer fee, but also work on the farm. The farm absorbs more than 100 rural surplus labor force every year, with a per capita income of more than 5000 yuan. "in the next step, we plan to continue to change the traditional way of raising cattle, and adopt the production mode of household breeding and centralized fattening to expand the scale of breeding, so that more villagers can participate in raising cattle and get rich together." Wang Weiwei is full of confidence in future development.
