Farming? What are some good entrepreneurial projects in the breeding industry? What we read from the Book of Getting Rich seems to be that farming is the most profitable, but is this really the case? There are swans and geese that fly in the sky, wild boars and rabbits that run on the ground, shrimps and crabs that swim in the water, eels and loaches that swim in the mud, and snakes, scorpions and crocodiles. However, whether a breeding project is profitable or not depends not only on what you breed, but also on how you breed it. For example, raising pigs and chickens has been an industry for hundreds of years, but there are still people who can do it with a different perspective today, and millions of people can do it.

Farming? This is what many breeders are looking for. Traditional pig and chicken raising has become more and more difficult as the price of breeding feed continues to rise and the epidemic continues to plague. Special breeding projects often have to do with people's acceptance and market and product development capabilities. The stakes are high. So what is it in the breeding industry that can keep us in an invincible position forever? We all know that feed costs account for more than 60% of the breeding costs in the breeding industry, so if we want to have a competitive advantage in both good and bad markets, cost leadership is absolutely necessary. If you can produce your own feed for the breeding industry and ensure the feed supply for your own farm, then no matter what you breed, it will be the most profitable. So from this point of view, the most profitable thing about breeding is the cultivation of mealworms. If you add It will be more profitable to cultivate mealworms ecologically. The ecological breeding project of mealworms is a good choice. You can use straw, cassava dregs, bean dregs, distiller's grains, etc. as feed for mealworms. The cultivated mealworms can then be used as feed for pheasants, geese and other rare birds, and can also be used as wood frogs. Live feed for stone frogs, scorpion centipedes, etc. The mealworm excrement obtained from raising mealworms is used as feed for breeding chickens, ducks, fish, etc. or directly used to grow economic plants or grow pumpkins as feed for mealworms, chickens, and pigs. The entire The ecological chain is interlocking, and what comes in is waste and what is produced are high-quality green agricultural products. This kind of ecological breeding must be the trend of future breeding

Farming? Why is ecological cultivation of mealworm the most profitable in the breeding industry? Reason 1: Mealworm breeding can make full use of rural wastes such as wheat bran, straw, rice bran, distiller's grains, bean dregs, cassava residue and even chicken manure as feed for mealworm breeding. The feed sources are very wide, and related pumpkin and sweet potato pasture can also be developed. Planting, etc. to develop more feed raw materials. It can be said that at least mealworms will not compete with humans or traditional breeding industries for feed raw materials. The required breeding sites are also very low. As long as there is a Mealworms can be cultured in small and medium-sized unused houses or greenhouses, and the temperature requirements are not high. Mealworms can be cultured all year round from 0 to 35 degrees. The culture of mealworms is simple and easy to learn, and there is no need to prevent epidemics or worry. The risks of epidemics are high, so the risks of breeding can be completely controlled by the farmers themselves. Relevant data shows that my country is very rich in straw resources. The country’s annual output of various crop straws is about 700 million tons, which is equivalent to more than 50 times the amount of grassland grass cutting in the north, and accounts for 20% to 30% of the world’s total straw production. Breeding? The development and utilization of straw feed in my country is still in its infancy, and the level of intensive production in the feed industry is low. At present, it is limited to digging pits for silage and small-scale ammonia treatment. Most of the crop straw every year cannot be used rationally, resulting in a huge waste of resources. If we can utilize 60% of crop straw every year and process it into feed, the benefits will be equivalent to the current total feed grain in the country (87 million tons). Therefore, the development and utilization of abundant straw resources is an inevitable trend for the development of my country's national feed industry. At the same time, the global demand for protein feed continues to increase, and the serious shortage of protein feed is particularly prominent. Breeding? How to solve the growing demand for protein feed, the most important and economical way to try in developed countries is to develop insect protein feed resources and various crop straws and feed raw materials processed by various means and methods. Breeding? Governments at all levels in our country also attach great importance to the industrialization of insect protein resources. The Ministry of Agriculture has listed insect feed as one of the 10 recommended grain-saving feed resources, and the National Animal Husbandry Development Center has also included insect breeding among the seven types of breeding industries that my country will vigorously develop in the future.

The National Planning Commission included "promotion of mealworm industrialization" in the high-tech industrialization promotion project in 2000, and the Ministry of Agriculture included "demonstration and promotion of mealworm factory production technology" in the 2001 agriculture, animal husbandry and fishery harvest plan. Therefore, the most widely used feed insect resource at present is mainly cultured mealworms.

For breeding, mealworm breeding is the first choice for the second reason: Tenebrio molitor breeding can develop other special breeding economic animals in the breeding industry. For example, there are special breeding projects such as scorpion breeding, pheasant breeding, centipede breeding, pigeon breeding, partridge breeding, gecko breeding, turtle and snake breeding, ornamental birds and fish breeding, etc. As the largest feed insect, mealworm has nutritional value and feed value that are unmatched by other raw materials. It is well-deserved the title of "King of Protein". According to measurements, the body of mealworm contains 56.58% protein and 28.20% fat. In addition, it also contains phosphorus, potassium, iron, sodium, aluminum and other trace elements as well as 16 kinds of amino acids necessary for animal growth. Each 100g of dry product contains up to 874.9 mg of amino acids. Its various nutritional ingredients rank first among all types of feed. It has been determined that the nutritional value of 1 kg of mealworms is equivalent to the nutritional value of 28 kg of wheat bran, 23 kg of mixed feed and 1,000 kg of green feed. It is known as the "treasure house of protein feed" and is an important tool for the development of poultry, fish, turtles, eels, Ideal protein feed for tilapia, bullfrog, salamander, scorpion, centipede, snake and other special animal breeding. Breeding? Mealworm protein is different from plant protein and animal protein. It is a full-effect protein that integrates prevention, health care, repair and nutrition. Its efficacy is obviously better than that of ordinary plant and animal proteins, and scientifically solves the problem of plant and animal proteins. defects. The antimicrobial peptides in Tenebrio molitor can inhibit the nucleic acid metabolism and growth of cancer cells and virus cells, kill a variety of pathogenic bacteria, have a strong killing effect on bacteria, viruses, fungi and other epilepsy-causing microorganisms, resist viral invasion, and prevent Various diseases occur. Mealworm molitor is also known as the "King of Antibacteria". It improves the disease resistance of animals, reduces mortality, eliminates the need for amino acids, reduces the use of antibiotics, and reduces the cost of feed and veterinary drugs. In addition, mealworms are rich in trace elements, with high copper, iron, zinc, and selenium contents. The amino acids are relatively balanced. The lipids contained are mostly soft fats and unsaturated fatty acids. They have good digestive properties and are easy to absorb. They are high-quality protein feed resources. .

For breeding, mealworm breeding is the first choice for three reasons: Mealworm breeding can also be combined with traditional breeding to create an ecological breeding model. For example, by using waste materials such as straw, bran, distiller's grains, and bean dregs to breed mealworms, the cost of ecologically raising mealworms is less than 3 yuan per catty. If you want to buy animal protein with the same high nutritional value in the market, you need to The price is far more than 10 yuan. Breeding? Then the most important and most expensive source of protein feed in our breeding industry can be provided by ourselves. Then the cost of breeding can be controlled to a relatively lower level than peers. Even if it is sold at the same price, it will have a great advantage. , not to mention that these animals farmed with insects are ecologically green, and the texture, taste and nutrition of their meat are incomparable to products farmed by other feeds. This fully meets the needs of modern urbanites for green food. Furthermore, the large amount of mealworm manure produced in the process of raising mealworms can also be used as a high-quality feed source for raising pigs, chickens, and fish, and can also be used as organic fertilizer for cash crops. If conditions permit, these insects can be used The manure is used to grow some pastures or vegetables and fruits and is used as a source of green fodder for raising mealworms. How to farm? It can be said that the cultivation of mealworms is completely an ecological chain that turns waste into treasure, turning useless waste into the most precious protein resources in our breeding industry, and also cultivating green food that is safe and healthy for human beings. High-quality agricultural products such as mealworm chickens and insect eggs have been developed in many places. It can be seen that the significance of mealworm breeding to the aquaculture industry is that mealworm breeding has opened up a new way of feed production for the entire industry. It uses mealworm breeding as a converter to turn many of our useless raw materials into waste. Treasures can be turned into high-quality protein resources, which is equivalent to turning feed production into one of the profit sources for farmers themselves. So when it comes to breeding, it can be said that mealworm breeding is indispensable for the future breeding industry. In fact, in developed European countries, breeding mealworms as a feed source for economic animals is not a new thing. Most farms will bring their own Insect farms are used to convert waste materials and provide farm feed.

Pulmonary mealworm breeding has a bright future. Reason 4: As modern people are concerned about food hygiene and safety, it has further promoted the development of green organic agricultural products. It is believed that this trend will become more and more popular. The more obvious it is. Then, traditional feed manufacturers will inevitably face a new round of reshuffles and challenges. On the one hand, traditional feed resources are facing constant upward pressure and the gap is also expanding. For example, the international supply of fishmeal and other protein feeds is increasing by tens of millions of tons every year, and prices are rising even more. Moreover, the problem of contamination from traditional feed sources has also been a major problem that has always plagued our food safety. Breeding? Therefore, feed manufacturers also need to consider the groundbreaking significance of mealworm farming for future development. I think there are at least the following two points. Mealworm farming can convert waste materials into protein resources for feed production, solving the problem of competition between humans and animals for food. Furthermore, it can solve the problem of the safety of feed sources. Through the transformation of mealworms, it has been very It is best to reduce the toxin contamination of the raw materials to the minimum, because mealworms are very sensitive to contaminated things, as long as there is a little bit of pesticides or other harmful chemical residues, they will die, so we have reason We believe that ecological feed produced using mealworms is safe and green. This kind of breeding industry must be vigorously developed by humans in the future, which means that mealworm breeding is the most promising among the breeding industries.

Cultivation, Tenebrio molitor cultivation, reason five: In the special breeding industry, other Tenebrio molitor cultivation is the most popular. On the one hand, because the technology of Tenebrio molitor cultivation is simple and easy to learn, the capital invested is not large, and the recycled The cycle is very short, and the risk of breeding is very low. On the other hand, the cost of breeding mealworms is very low, it has a wide range of uses, and the potential for development is very large. For example, mealworms can be made into flavored insect food. Insect vegetables are also a very fashionable health concept. They are also made into Chinese shrimp powder and used to add to bread, biscuits, cakes, etc. In Europe and the United States, mealworm powder is added to bread to increase the flavor. It has fragrance and nutrition, which is why mealworms are also called mealworms. Some people refine mealworm oil as cosmetics and other health products, and some process it into protein powder and amino acids. They slough the mealworms to extract chitin and so on. Breeding? In this sense, the deep processing of mealworms can still have many development prospects, and it will definitely provide a steady stream of resources for the sustainable development of our mankind. It is a sunrise industry in the biological field.
