Tenebrio molitor breeding costs and benefits: breeding Tenebrio molitor prospects, Tenebrio molitor price how much a catty

With the proposal of Premier Li Keqiang mass entrepreneurship and innovation, the development of Internet science and technology circle is in full swing. Friends in the aquaculture circle often ask me on Wechat: there is no breeding experience, nor a lot of funds, only the wonderful rivers and mountains in my hometown and countryside, and some friends live in cities and do not even have the necessary venues. How can I start my own business in the aquaculture industry? Starting from today, I will gradually sort out some small projects in the aquaculture industry for you to operate and start. I would like to stress here that we do not sell seed insects, nor do we sell any equipment or feed. Please do not ask us to consult about buying seeds. Just to introduce entrepreneurial projects to you, but also hope that the following comments stay in Germany.

Today, let's talk about a small project that is very easy to operate-- Tenebrio Molitor breeding. Although it is small, if it is done well, it will not be a problem to make the whole family more nourished. Not only can it be full-time, but after it has mastered the technology, it is also possible to work part-time. Interested friends can also sell through Wechat, Taobao and other e-commerce channels. Welcome to communicate with us, Wechat (yzydt1).

Economic value of Tenebrio Molitor

Tenebrio Molitor, commonly known as bread worm, is a succulent mollusk with a fat and protein content of 50%. In addition, it also contains potassium, iron, phosphorus, aluminum, sodium and other trace elements as well as 16 kinds of amino acids necessary for animal growth. Per 100g dry products, the content of amino acids is as high as 874.9 mg, and its various nutrients rank first among all kinds of feed. According to the determination, the nutritional value of 1 kg of Tenebrio Molitor is equivalent to that of 25 kg of wheat bran, 20 kg of mixed feed and 1000 kg of green feed. It is known as the "treasure house of protein feed".

Tenebrio Molitor is a rare and excellent feed for raising poultry and scorpions, centipedes, tilapia, rice field eel, turtles, bullfrogs, fish, baby fish, snakes and so on.

2. Cost-benefit analysis of feeding Tenebrio Molitor

Artificial breeding of Tenebrio Molitor can be said to be small in cost and big in profit. Under the condition of mastering the technology, a person uses his spare time to buy 25 kilograms of seed insects with an area of 20 square meters and an investment of 2500 yuan, the market price of wheat bran is 2 yuan / kg, and the feed / meat ratio of feed to insect breeding is 3:1. After 3-6 months of breeding, the average output of 1 kg of seed insects is 50 kg of commercial worms. At present, the value of commercial insects is 10 yuan / kg, and 25 kg of seed insects can produce 1250 kg of commercial insects. The total cost is as follows:

Feed cost = 1250 kg × 3 × 2,500 yuan (wheat bran)

Cost of planting insects = 25kg × 100yuan / kg = 2500 yuan

Tool cost = 30 wooden boxes and frames made to the carpenter, with a total value of about 500 yuan

Total income = 1250 kg × 10 yuan / kg = 12500 yuan

Net income = 12500-2500 (seed insect)-7500 (wheat bran)-7500 (wooden box wooden frame) = 2000 yuan (this benefit is predicted as a theoretical calculation, and the actual income depends on the feed cost of farmers and the level of technology and management).

The income of 2500 yuan is only the income after the first batch of breeding, after the commercial insects are sold, farmers still have a large number of adults in continuous reproduction, which is a long-term benefit of an investment.

If the use of abandoned crop straw in rural areas to raise the cost of yellow powder is lower, more than 5 jin of straw powder plus a small amount of wheat bran, vegetable leaves, etc., can raise a jin of commercial insects.

In addition, the price of the commodity bug above is the door-to-door purchase price of the peddler. If the commodity bug is simply dried, simply packaged, affixed with its own trademark, and sold on the Internet using Taobao, the selling price can easily reach 30-60 yuan per kilogram, and the profit has doubled.

Explanation: dried Tenebrio Molitor is a good food for many special pets, such as hamsters, lizards and birds. This market is very huge. If you are interested in searching Taobao, you will know.

Third, Tenebrio Molitor culture environment and other conditions

Feeding equipment: feeding equipment is relatively simple, wooden plate, sieve plate, wooden frame.

Breeding environment: there must be a breeding room for breeding yellow powder insects, which should be ventilated and transparent, and there should be heating and heat preservation facilities in winter.

Internal requirements of the breeding room: the temperature should be kept between 15 ℃-25 ℃ in winter and summer.

Feed source: the main feed is wheat bran, can also be supplemented by bran bran, crushed straw and so on.

Vegetables are mainly radish, cabbage, potatoes and other green leaf vegetables, to supplement vitamins, trace elements and water needs.

Other feed: add a small amount of glucose powder, fish meal and so on.

4. Culture methods of yellow powder insect

Tenebrio Molitor box culture is the most commonly used culture method, once mastered this culture technology, the breeding quantity and yield of Tenebrio Molitor are very large. The equipment mainly includes insect box, egg collection box and sieve and so on. The commonly used equipment is introduced as follows (its dimensions are for reference only).

Culture technology: pot culture technology of yellow powder insect

1. Insect box

The inside is polished with sandpaper, pasted with wide tape for a week and flattened to prevent bugs from escaping. Use 1-1.5 cm thick plywood or fibreboard for the edge and plywood or fibreboard for the bottom.

Need to use several different sizes of sieve, the screen is 100 mesh, 60 mesh, 40 mesh and ordinary iron screen. Sieves are used to screen faeces of different ages and to isolate worms. The inside of the sieve should also have a smooth belt to prevent bugs from escaping.

2. Egg collecting box

It is composed of a worm box and an egg sieve. The inside of the egg sieve should be smooth, and the bottom of the egg sieve should be nailed with iron window screen. In order to prevent the adults from feeding on the eggs after spawning and causing losses, the adults used for reproduction can be raised in the egg sieve, and then the eggs can be sifted into the human insect box. In the egg sieve, the female can extend the ovipositor under the egg screen to lay eggs, so that the eggs will not be harmed by adults, but also reduce the pollution of feed, insect dung and other eggs.

V. risk management and control

1. The diseases and insect pests of Tenebrio Molitor basically did not exist before 2010, but the development in recent years is quite serious and has become a key factor in the success of breeding. We must pay attention to it, the content of pest control is another topic, you can follow our WeChat account (yangzhiuu) and the official website: breeding one by one, there are several articles to discuss in detail.

2. Don't be fooled by merchants (liars) when introducing varieties, and let them choose worms for you. Although species insects and commercial insects are mixed and raised together, there is still a big difference. It is best to select the introduction of larvae, generally choose large, dynamic, bright color individual larvae as species.

3. Don't pin your sales on the merchant's recycling contract, there are too many such frauds. Suggest yourself to go to market, Taobao is a good choice.
