Chen Jian-Chao's Classic of raising cattle and getting Rich

"in June last year, my cattle farm selected and bought 57 fine cows and 30 bulls. Through scientific breeding, there are now 160 cattle in stock, which has increased by 200000 yuan at market prices." Speaking of the development of the cattle farm, Chen Jian-Chao, director of the cattle farm in Shenying Village, Songcheng Office, Suiyang District, was smiling.

On February 26, the reporter came to this cattle farm and saw that all the beef cattle were fat and strong, and a picture of original ecological and pollution-free breeding became a bright spot in the development of the breeding industry in Shenying Village, which opened the reporter's eyes.

Chen Jianchao pointed to an empty shed in the factory. "Last week, my beef cattle just came out of the shed and made 50,000 yuan." He said, "I often go to the Shenying village room to check the information on breeding and learn a lot about breeding. I control the number and species of beef cattle according to the needs of the market, which provides great convenience for me to raise cattle."

"how did you think of developing beef cattle farming?" Watching the cattle in the ecological farm grazing leisurely, the reporter asked curiously.

"at the beginning of 2011, I found that beef cattle were profitable. In recent years, fewer and fewer families raised cattle. After the promotion of agricultural mechanization, fewer cattle were raised, while the price of beef in the market remained high. I think this is an opportunity. I want to raise cattle to get rich. " Talking about the original intention of starting a business, Chen Jianchao said.

In May of that year, he began to raise cattle on a small scale at home, and now he has five years of farming experience. In order to improve the meat quality of beef cattle, in addition to feeding beef cattle corn stalks and wheat stalks every day, he also let beef cattle run back and forth in the factory shed, and sometimes let beef cattle listen to music. "this kind of beef cattle is a real green product. My beef cattle sales are very good. Many customers come from Huainan, Huaibei and Bozhou. They all make appointments in advance. As soon as the beef cattle come out of the fence, they will drive to pull them. The price is also higher in the market. " Chen Jianchao said.

In the past few years, all the villagers in Shenying Village have kept beef cattle, but due to poor management, cattle eating crops caused a lot of disputes, resulting in farmers' reluctance to raise cattle. In recent years, with the continuous improvement of people's living standards, the market demand for beef and cowhide is increasing day by day. Chen Jianchao, who is in his 30s, was inspired. In June last year, he discussed with his family and decided to invest 800000 yuan, covering an area of more than 3 mu. Set up a cattle farm to drive the villagers to raise beef cattle to get rich.

At first, due to lack of knowledge of raising cattle, Chen Jianchao suffered a lot of losses, but through the slow accumulation of experience, his income increased year by year. After tasting the sweetness, he plans to further expand the scale of beef cattle. After several years of operation and observation of the market, Chen Jianchao found that beef cattle had good prospects for fattening, so at the beginning of the year, he bought back more than 100 "shelf cattle" and fattened them with corn stalks mixed with distiller's grains. Over the course of a year, Chen Jianchao not only paid off his debts, but also had a little savings.

Chen Jianchao, who made him rich, also did not forget to drive the masses to become rich. according to villager Jiang Liangcheng, he did some animal epidemic prevention work there, and his monthly salary was as low as 1500 yuan.

"A cow can give birth to one calf a year. The growth period is 280d. If the weight reaches 500kg, it can be sold. At the current market price, each cow can make a net profit of more than 2000 yuan. In the future, I will expand the scale of breeding and drive more villagers to join the breeding team and get rich together. " Chen Jianchao already has a blueprint for future development.
