386 Comparison of farm expenses
After building the bird watching platform, Chengxin built a large viewing platform on the small high ground in the middle of the meadow.
This time, I don't use H steel to make load-bearing columns, and I go directly to the concrete.
The floor of the observation deck is still laid with wooden planks, so that there will be no water accumulation in the afternoon because there is a gap.
Before you know it, it's September.
In less than a month, the autumn tiger will not know which corner to hide in to hibernate and wait for the next autumn to come out to roast the earth.
Chengxin walked in the meadow and watched groups of Simmental cattle and improved cattle leisurely eating tender grass.
It has been more than eight months since the calves came to the village.
Although it is free-range, it is because the grass in the grass is nourished by long-term spraying of diluted spiritual fluid.
So eating this high-quality pasture, the calves grow no worse than the captive.
It's been more than eight months, and it's grown from more than 200 catties to the smallest one is 800 catties.
The fastest growing is still the Simmental cow, the largest one, weighing 1,000 pounds.
Those large beef cattle farms that raise Simmental cattle or improved cattle can only grow to 12,300 catties at most in a year.
Moreover, the cost of raising them is much higher than that of the free-range farm engaged in by Chengxin.
A Simmental cow, raised in a large farm, a year, the cost of cattle seedlings plus breeding cycle is about 8,000 to 10,000 yuan.
Of course, the more the quantity, the lower the cost, even if it is nine thousand.
Nine thousand, three hundred is between two hundred and three million.
One head is counted as 1,200 catties, and the market price is 17 yuan, and the price of one head is in the early 20,000s.
It is equivalent to 300 heads, and the total income can be a little more than 6 million after a year.
Excluding the cost of breeding, as well as various other expenses, it is good to raise 300 Simmental cattle and earn one or two million a year.
This is still without any risk, and in the event of a market downturn.
If the price of beef cattle falls when they are sick or alive, losses can occur.
After all, there are 300 beef cattle with a total weight of more than 300,000 catties.
The price of beef cattle drops two or three dollars for you, that is, one million is gone.
If you hang up a few heads, hehe, okay, I won't be able to make money this year.
Fortunately, now that technology is developed, cattle will not die in general, unless there is a large-scale plague.
The market fluctuations will make farmers earn more and make less money.
And Chengxin, to be honest, this year's expenses are really not eye-catching.
From the salary of employees to the present, a total of nine months, the farm has paid 610,000 wages.
The electricity bill is not even 100,000.
Coarse grains, because there is plenty of pasture on the other side of the meadow, in the past eight months, only less than 20 tons of various coarse grains have been purchased.
The miscellaneous things add up, and it's only fifty or sixty thousand.
There are all kinds of vaccines, medicines, disinfectants, etc., and they are just over 200,000.
I didn't do it, the grass is good, the cattle are healthy, and in addition to vaccines, other drugs are used less.
It is also good to maintain hygiene, and disinfectant is consumed a lot.
The total cost is a maximum of one million this year.
This is equivalent to raising these 300 cattle on the farm for a year. grows to 11,200 catties, and can have a total net profit of about 5 million.
….
The profits, that's quite high.
But you can't count it that way, can you? Grass does not cost?
If it is an ordinary pasture, the money for contracting land and planting pasture grass will cost tens of millions in the whole year.
However, there is such a pasture, and no one will be like Chengxin, just used to grow some pasture grass and graze cattle.
Others are now engaged in forage planting, and the grass they grow is sold to those farms.
It is more cost-effective to earn money in this way than to grow grass and raise cattle in such a large meadow
Many.
With the prosperity of cattle and sheep breeding, there is a need for forage and green storage.
Therefore, the forage is planted, and there is no worry about selling it at all, and some farms directly purchase the fruit that has not yet matured the corn stalk for the sake of green storage.

Most of the domestic farms are bolted in the plant, and the stocking mode is basically not too much.
Unless the land there is not suitable for pasture, the land is used exclusively for pasture cultivation and sale.
Even if they don't grow pasture and sell it, they grow it to feed the cattle and sheep on their own farms.
Like on TV or on the Internet, you can see a meadow with a large herd of cattle and sheep, or the meadow is not suitable for growing pasture in a large area.
Either that, it is a model project of a certain enterprise, or a tourist attraction.
It is only Chengxin who is like this, all year round, so that the cattle and cattle can enjoy leisurely grazing in the grass.
But then again, even if this batch of cattle from the farm is sold, it is impossible for Chengxin to sell them as beef cattle.
These cows are fat and strong, and their whole bodies, whether they are bulls or cows, are full of muscle.
Unlike the beef cattle in the farm, in order to save costs, the forage of cattle and sheep is deducted, and the cattle grow thinner.
Fattening begins only a month or two before the end of the slaughter.
Whether it is a farm or a farmer, beef cattle are either raised in the mountains or bolted in the factory.
Won't let them eat too much.
All are scientifically fed, and the energy reduces the cost of breeding.
After a year of feeding, the calves' skeletons have grown, and the farmers may sell the cattle to the fattening farm, which buys the cattle and starts feeding them with concentrate feed for fattening.
Needless to say, the farms fatten themselves, or they can buy the farmers' shelf cattle for fattening.
Chengxin's cattle can become an adult beef cattle after nearly a year of breeding.
And they have drunk some spiritual liquid, and every day they eat the grass that grows out of absorbing the spiritual liquid, if they are really sold as beef cattle, then Chengxin is a ***.
If you want to sell it, you can sell it as a breeding cow, right?
This male breeding cow is not sold for forty or fifty thousand, but it can only be said how far it rolls.
Seventy or eighty thousand is not delusional.
And it depends on whether Chengxin sells it or not.
Of the more than 300 cattle, more than 110 of them were bulls.
To sell, Chengxin is also selling them.
As for the cows? If you don't sell it, it's useless for anyone to come.
No, if anyone in the family or Su Xue comes to eat, then Chengxin will not hesitate at all.
….
may also lick his face and ask, daughter-in-law, do you want to make a whole cow, let's have a charcoal roast whole cow?
Originally, it was expected that at the beginning of the second half of this year, a grassland would be developed in the rocky valley.
But it looks like it's not going to work this year.
The lifting platform more than 60 kilometers away, after several months of construction, although it has not been completed, it is also fast.
A few days ago, Chengxin called to inquire that the main support frame has been built, and the crane is now being installed and commissioned.
At most, it will be completed in a month.
On the side of the water diversion project, half of the reservoir has been filled, and the water level has not risen in the past few days, but is still falling.
No way, the weather is hot, the water area is large, and the amount of water that evaporates is larger than the amount of water that flows in, so it will fall.
However, the rainy season is coming soon, and as soon as the rainy season arrives, it will take less than half a month, maybe a week, to fill the reservoir.
The pipes have been laid, one end is connected to the pipe under the reservoir, and the other end has been up the hill in the middle of the rocky valley.
Now we are waiting for the lifting platform to be built, and then we will recruit people and buy equipment for cultivating land.
Chengxin wandered around the grass for half an hour
and went home.
It was not an urgent matter, but one thing came to mind.
That is, I haven't pulled the wires and network cables yet, and I went to the Rocky Valley Mountain.
Whether it is a pasture or a rural area, it is necessary to use electricity, and if you don't pull the wires, are you still going to use generators to generate electricity? How much does that cost?
As for the network cable, it is for the sake of the workers.
Even in terms of development, it is basically young people who start the machinery.
More than 60 kilometers, it is impossible for them to go back to the village or town every day? So you have to live over there.
Young people don't have the Internet, and if you open 10,000 yuan a month, you can't recruit a few people.
So these have to be pulled up.
