Adhere to the initial entrepreneurial road and raise porcupines to get rich.

With the active encouragement and strong support of the Hainan provincial party committee and provincial government, youth innovation and entrepreneurship in Hainan Province has formed a good momentum of development, and with the active support and encouragement of various city and county government departments, young people have made a lot of achievements when they return home to start their own businesses. a number of vibrant small and micro enterprises are booming. When this group of entrepreneurs left the bustling city, many people even gave up the "iron rice bowl" in the eyes of their elders and resolutely went back to their hometown to start a business, just because of "homesickness" and "entrepreneurial dreams." Nanhai Network has launched a series of reports on "Youth returning Home to start a Business". Previously, it has been reported that the typical representatives of young entrepreneurs in Chengmai and Lingshui will enter Qionghai from now on to listen to their entrepreneurial experiences.

Xie Shanyang, who lives in Hongse Village, Yangjiang Town, Qionghai City, Hainan Province, has worked in Haikou and Guangzhou after graduating from the technical school. He has set up stalls, sold roast meat, and opened stationery stores. Although he did not achieve much, in the end, he persisted in his initial dream of starting a business, returned to his hometown of Qionghai, Hainan, took the lead in raising porcupine on a large scale, and delivered porcupine seedlings and breeding technology to villagers and farmers in many parts of the province, leading more and more villagers to become rich. A few days ago, the reporter of Nanhai Network walked into this young man who returned to his hometown to start a business.

Qionghai boy was infatuated with porcupine for several years and returned to raise porcupine to start a business.

After graduating from a technical school in Haikou in 2007, Xie Shanyang now works as an intern in a company in Haikou, then goes to Guangzhou to study power tool maintenance, and later works as a salesman in an enterprise. It was during his study and part-time work in Guangzhou that Xie Shanyang accidentally found that porcupine thorns were sold on the market. under curiosity, he learned that there was a porcupine breeding base in Anhui and went to Anhui to inspect it in 2008.

"I first learned about porcupine thorns in the health section on TV that porcupine thorns are widely used, and I also found that there are few porcupine thorns sold in the market." In 2009, Xie Shanyang decided to raise porcupine to start a business when he returned to his hometown.

After Xie Shanyang exchanged his ideas with his parents, his parents did not agree, but invested 100000 yuan to let him run a stationery store in Guilin Yang University City, Haikou, but ended up at a loss. In the next few years, with the support of his parents, Xie Shanyang successively worked in Haikou, Guangzhou and other places, set up stalls, sold roast meat, and opened a stationery store. although he failed to insist, "although the industry failed, his heart was still there," in the words of Xie Shanyang, "even if he paid the tuition fee."

Xie Shanyang worked as a wine salesman in Haikou in 2011, when he met his wife, who worked as an accountant in a company in Haikou at that time. Inspired by his mother, Xie Shanyang decided to start selling porcupine thorns first, so he set up a stall, sometimes selling up to 1000 yuan a day.

"if you sell porky pork together, business will certainly be better." In 2012, Xie Shanyang returned to the original intention of raising porcupine and got the support of his wife. he resigned from his stable job with a monthly salary of more than 5000 yuan in Haikou without telling his parents and family, and the couple went back to Yangjiang to raise porcupine to start a business.

Like the mother's family borrowed money to introduce porcupine farming to try to overcome the "four hurdles"

After many entrepreneurial failures, he successively spent hundreds of thousands of yuan on his parents' savings, but Xie Shanyang was even more determined. In the second half of 2012, he borrowed 50, 000 yuan from his mother's family as principal, went to Anhui to study and introduced 15 groups of 5 groups (1 male and 2 female each). 3700 yuan each.

At that time, due to lack of experience, the imported porcupine was dissatisfied with the differences in climatic conditions between Anhui and Hainan, resulting in the sudden death of 6 porcupines. Xie Shanyang had no negative and no regrets. He actively consulted the technicians of the animal husbandry and veterinary departments of the city and town, and also exchanged discussions with local professional farmers. Aiming at the growth problems of porcupines, he used salt to prevent and control the growth of porcupines, and at the same time improved the growth environment. Adding local sand and loess to the feed, after half a year of groping and practice, finally controlled the disease, and the sows also began to give birth.

After the first pass of "soil and water adaptation", there comes the problem of "mother biting offspring" again. In 2013, a total of 18 porcupines were born, of which 10 were killed by sows. Xie Shanyang learned that once sows are frightened, the best way for them to protect piglets is to kill them.

After finding the reason, in 2014, Xie Shanyang borrowed 60,000 yuan again to Anhui to introduce 30 pigs (10 groups) to rebuild and build pig houses to achieve separate breeding of mother and offspring and improve the growth environment.

The third pass is the "prevention and treatment of diseases." the common diseases of porcupines are paralysis of pig feet, colds, and dysentery. Xie Shanyang often learns from local experts for advice, and gradually becomes an expert in porcupine farming from a layman who knows nothing about it.

In the face of the final "market clearance", due to the natural taste of porcupine meat, it was difficult to accept when it was introduced to the market. Xie Shanyang's research found that porcupine buttocks grow a special kind of self-protective organs, and when they encounter an attack, they issue the smell of porcupine to protect them. As long as it is removed at the time of slaughtering, the problem of smell will be solved.

Learn to breed more than 200 porcupines a year

The stumbling on the road to entrepreneurship has made Xie Shanyang gradually mature and rational. He realized that starting a business cannot rely solely on enthusiasm, but should respect science and master relevant technical skills.

In the process of porcupine breeding, Xie Shanyang compared the temperature and humidity between Hainan and the mainland, ventilated pig houses, and installed devices such as electric lights and fans to prevent heat and cold, so as to ensure a healthy environment for porcupines to grow up.

Xie Shanyang also consulted local Chinese herbal medicine doctors according to the characteristics of wild animals to understand the role of "Shuanghuanglian", Banlangen and other Chinese herbal medicines for the prevention and treatment of porcupine diseases. Take soybeans and corn as the main ingredients, go to the riverside and mountains, pick the leaves, stems and roots of local plants to match feed, and raise them according to the size and physical strength of porcupine.

At the same time, he got up early and late at night, focused on the nutrition, temperature and humidity needed for sows in estrus, implemented measures to prevent disease and epidemic, stayed beside the sows during the growth period, matched the ratio of protein to green feed in feed, and grasped the compound reproduction to speed up the reproduction of porcupine.

As a result of scientific management and proper breeding, the later introduced porcupine did not have lambs and grew normally, because the porcupine was fed salt water locally and came back to control its food intake, so that the porcupine gradually adapted to soil and water; during the growth process of porcupine, never feed feed containing hormones, but take local corn and other materials as the main material; epidemic prevention mainly uses traditional Chinese medicine, not antibiotics. Xie Shanyang finally succeeded!

At present, Xie Shanyang's porcupine stock has reached 600, including more than 110 sows. Porcupine growth period is generally 10 months to 1 year, a commercial porcupine 20 to 25 jin, the market price of about 95 yuan per jin. Annual column commodity porcupine more than 200, making a profit of more than 200,000 yuan.

In addition to learning aquaculture skills, Xie Shanyang also signed up for the study of agricultural economic management in Hainan Radio and TV University, and actively participated in the training course for leaders of rural practical talents organized by the Ministry of Agriculture. He participated in the training of leaders of rural youth entrepreneurship and rural cooperative organizations held by the Provincial Party Committee of the Communist Youth League, and also actively participated in the provincial and municipal competition for entrepreneurship and prosperity. And with the "wild porcupine domestication and breeding base" project won the provincial entrepreneurial competition start-up enterprise group excellence award, so as to constantly enhance their entrepreneurial ability to create wealth.

Lead the establishment of Sanle porcupine cooperative to develop porcupine industry chain

Xie Shanyang took the lead in raising porcupine on a large scale in Hainan. In order to make the industry stronger and bigger, let people accept and expand the market effect, he invited villagers inside and outside the village who were interested in porcupine breeding to visit, receive consultation from the villagers, and provide them with seedlings and technology.

At the end of 2014, Xie Shanyang took the lead in establishing the "Sanle Porcupine Cooperative" in Yangjiang Town, providing visitors with materials and information, joint research, joint development and common progress. He is responsible for the porcupine seedlings, breeding techniques and disease prevention and epidemic prevention techniques of all members, and when the porcupine comes out, he will buy it at the market price, so as to achieve a win-win situation for members, customers and themselves.

In addition to the surrounding villagers, farmers in Sanya, Danzhou, Baisha and other places have come to buy porcupine seedlings and learn breeding techniques. Cooperatives cooperate with 52 farmers inside and outside the island, with an annual output of more than 3000 porcupine, with a good momentum of development.

Today, with the support of relevant provincial and municipal departments, Xie Shanyang is building two more porcupine farms on his contracted land, and is also planning a joint venture of 1 million yuan to build a 1000 porcupine base outside the village.

Xie Shanyang hopes to expand the scale of breeding into deep processing, he also stepped up the introduction of technology and talent, the development of porcupine medicinal and handicraft projects, so that the comprehensive utilization of porcupine farming, lengthen the industrial chain, and lead the masses to become rich together.
