The export of fast broilers is becoming less and less, and the prospect of grass chicken breeding is promising

Introduction: the export of fast-growing broilers is becoming less and less, and the prospect of grass chicken breeding is promising Grass chicken, also known as native chicken and stupid chicken in rural areas, is a traditional breed in China In the past few years, due to the weakness of slow growth, small size and low egg production of grass chicken, it was gradually replaced by foreign excellent varieties, and the number of breeding was greatly reduced However, in recent years, with the change of people's consumption level and consumption concept, the consumption of grass-roots chicken has gradually increased Grass-roots chicken has become a new hot spot in rural breeding industry, and the prospect of raising grass-roots chicken is promising In terms of sales, the pure local grass chicken is quite popular in the market Due to the lack of exercise and soft meat in the process of broiler breeding, antibiotics, hormones and other drugs are added to the feed when feeding The chicken products contain drug residues, and people will be polluted by drug residues after eating them With the change of people's consumption concept and taste, the consumption of broiler will decrease gradually In the process of breeding, the grass chicken mainly adopts the method of free breeding It feeds on grains and grains in the natural environment It has a large amount of exercise, no pollution, tender meat, good taste and rich nutrition It is welcomed by people and its products are in short supply in the market From the perspective of breeding cost, the breeding cost of grass chicken is very low A grass chicken costs only about 4 yuan a year The main reasons are: first, less investment in chicken seedlings In rural areas, the main way to buy chickens is to use credit In spring, chickens are "on credit" and paid when they grow up in autumn Moreover, the price of each chicken is only about 1.5 yuan, with less investment in chickens, so every family can raise them Second, less feed consumption In spring, summer and autumn, the chickens mainly forage for insects and grass seeds in the fields and forests In rural areas, it is commonly known as "fighting wild" The farmers can only feed a small amount of concentrate at night Compared with the broilers, it can save more than 2 / 3 of the feed and greatly reduce the feeding cost From the perspective of breeding profit, the income of grass chicken is quite considerable At present, the price of grass chicken on the market is 14 yuan / kg, and even 17 yuan / kg is sold before the Spring Festival For example, if the price of grass chicken is 12 yuan / kg when it is low, one grass chicken weighs 1.5kg and can earn 18 yuan After deducting the cost, one chicken can earn 14 yuan If a farmer raises 200 grass chickens a year, the net income will be 2800 yuan without affecting other production At the same time, due to the rich nutrition, good taste and no pollution, grass eggs are also very popular The market price is 0.4 yuan / piece, which is calculated by 150 eggs per chicken per year, and the income is 60 yuan However, in the process of grass chicken breeding, we should pay attention to the prevention and control of chicken diseases, especially the prevention of Newcastle disease Newcastle disease (NDV) is a kind of severe infectious disease, which is commonly known as "chicken plague" in rural areas After infection, the chickens often died without any obvious symptoms, and the mortality rate was more than 90% Prevention is the only way to control Newcastle disease Generally, when the chickens are 7 days old, they use the Newcastle disease vaccine and the nose drops The first 28 days of the intramuscular injection of the first strain of the vaccine is made at 28 to 30 days After the first half of each year, the first strain of the vaccine is injected into the body, which can significantly reduce the incidence rate of Newcastle disease, reduce the loss and raise the efficiency of the breeding.
