Potential investment and development opportunities of animal husbandry in Shaanxi Province

Introduction: Although animal husbandry has become a major industry with great development potential in Shaanxi Province, at present, the industry is facing increasingly fierce market competition and more and more severe environmental resource constraints after China's accession to the WTO There are still many deficiencies in Shaanxi, no matter the level of breeding, transformation, science and technology, or the degree of intensification and commercialization Relevant experts believe that these problems just provide good investment and development opportunities for businesses 1 The breeding scale is small and the industrialization process is slow According to the statistics of the Provincial Bureau of statistics, in 2000, the number of pigs, cattle, sheep and poultry raised by farmers in the province accounted for 98.3%, 99.2%, 99.1% and 98.5% of the total stock of the province respectively; the stock of large livestock, cattle, pigs and sheep accounted for 2%, 2%, 1.4% and 2.2% of the whole country respectively, and the product output of livestock and poultry base counties accounted for a small proportion of the province Therefore, it is urgent to expand the scale of breeding and speed up the industrialization 2 Low scientific and technological content and low production level It is understood that at present, most of the state-owned pig farms in the province have old infrastructure and backward production mode, and do not have the basic conditions and requirements for pig production However, due to the blind development of private pig farms driven by interests, it is difficult to undertake the task of breeding good breeds in a certain region of the province The lean meat rate of live pigs is low The pork in the market is basically binary hybrid pork, with a lean meat rate of about 48%, which can no longer meet people's consumption needs for pork food According to statistics, in 2000, each cow in the province produced 125.6kg of meat, compared with the national average of 134.4kg in the same period; the per capita pork, beef and mutton accounted for 20.5kg, 46.5% less than the national average of 38.3kg, ranking 28th in the country, and the per capita pork, beef and mutton accounted for 53.0%, 52.4% and 68.2% respectively The main reason for the above problems is that the small family workshop production mode formed under the planned economy hinders and restricts the popularization and application of science and technology, resulting in the low level of animal husbandry production in the province 3 Low rate of listing and poor economic benefits According to statistics, in 2000, the export rate of pigs, cattle and sheep in the province was 94.9%, 25.5% and 84.8%, respectively 27.5, 5.7 and 24 percentage points lower than the national average Due to the low export rate and production level, the absolute share of livestock products and the proportion in the whole country are small The output value of animal husbandry and the total output of meat in the whole province only account for 1.4% of the whole country In the per capita net income of farmers, the income of animal husbandry only accounts for 7.1%, and the output value of animal husbandry only accounts for 28% of the total agricultural output value, which is lower than the national average level Relevant experts believe that the current western development has created good opportunities for the development of animal husbandry in Shaanxi Therefore, exploring the resources and technological advantages of animal husbandry, adjusting the structure of animal husbandry, strengthening the construction of leading enterprises, speeding up the development of large-scale and intensive industries, etc., which just provide valuable investment and development opportunities for businesses.
