Chapter 791 787. Raising Rabbits

What idea?

If the quality cannot reach far beyond that of your peers, then start with the demand.

If there is a high demand for something and it is in short supply in the market, then as long as the quality meets a certain standard, it can also sell well.

The principle is very simple, and it is different from Mao Maotou’s idea.

But Sister Qu started from one and then the other, and finally she got it.

But there is a huge gap between seeing it and doing it.

The right time, right place and right people are indispensable.

Then Sister Qu went to investigate the market, and then she became confused. There were too many options, and all of them seemed to have prospects.

Anyway, I wandered around for a long time and happened to come across an opportunity.

In June 2020, the Shuxing No. 1 meat rabbit bred by the Sichuan Academy of Animal Husbandry Sciences passed the review and was promoted by local agricultural technology stations.

Shuxing No. 1 is a meat rabbit breed specially bred for the southwest. It has strong reproductive capacity and produces 65 rabbits a year. It grows fast, only takes days. It has strong adaptability and high meat yield.
And they are of suitable size, weighing about two kilograms at the market price, and can produce one kilogram of pure meat, making them most suitable for babies in Sichuan and Chongqing.

Rabbit is good.

People in Sichuan and Chongqing love eating rabbits the most in the country, eating 600 million rabbits a year.

There is a joke that goes like this: In Sichuan and Chongqing, even if you have a pet rabbit, when you take it to the veterinary hospital, people will greet you warmly, "Hey, why are you bringing vegetables?"

However, there are only 130 million rabbits raised locally, which cannot meet the demand at all. A large number of them need to be imported from other places and even from abroad.

Isn’t this the most pressing demand?

It is mainly the promotion of new varieties, and the various policies and training conditions are very good.

The time has come.

Sister Qu then started raising rabbits. She raised a thousand at the beginning to familiarize herself with the technology. As a result, she recovered her investment in just a few months and made a lot of profit.

Then invest more to expand breeding.

It expands like a snowball round by round.

In just two years, it has become its current scale, a large breeding farm covering an area of ​​2,000 acres.

"Nowadays, many people yearn for pastoral life and return to their hometowns to start businesses."

“But there are few who succeed, and a big reason for that is that they can’t find the entry point, and they just go ahead blindly based on their feelings, taking many detours, or simply turning into waves, bubbling up and disappearing…”

“But failure is not always the end; it can be another step toward success. The key is to learn from these experiences, adjust your strategy, and maintain perseverance.”

After Sister Qu recounted her entrepreneurial history, she concluded.

It may be because I have made too many reports everywhere and have become accustomed to putting up values.

But there is truth in it.
-
"Pa pa pa pa~~" Luo Shaoan applauded enthusiastically and cheered.

Sister Qu, who was being flattered, felt a little embarrassed.

Afterwards, Luo Shaoan invited Sister Qu to take him and the audience in the live broadcast room to visit the breeding base.

Following the camera, the audience finally realized that this was actually a beautiful small farm garden.

There are layers of flower beds and gravel paths around the lawn.

Pavilions and wooden houses are located in the middle, and the small pond is full of lotus flowers, with colorful koi swimming slowly in the pond.

According to Sister Qu, she did this after making money from raising rabbits. She originally grew flowers, but she couldn't let go.

I set up a farm stay, which I find comfortable and attracts tourists on weekends.

Have some fun, have a meal, and buy some local specialties.

Beyond the garden is the nursery, followed by the orchard and vegetable garden.

This was also established after I started raising rabbits. It can be considered an ecological farm. It seems that raising rabbits is really profitable and the industry is really big.

Finally, Sister Qu brought Luo Shaoan to a very new factory building.

Seeing this house, Luo Shaoan was happy, "It looks very similar to the mushroom house over there."

Sister Qu nodded, looking proud, "I learned this from you guys, embracing technology. This is an automated smart breeding center, which was built at the beginning of this year."

"When we were building it, we showed your video to the construction company. They said the equipment was almost the same, with temperature control, light control, humidity control, ventilation, sterilization and energy storage, all the same."

"The difference is that I have to raise rabbits here, and I'm afraid they might get scared, so I have more equipment to control the sound."

Entering the farm, it really looks like the mushroom house over at Maomaotou.

It must first go through two sterilization and dust removal steps before entering the breeding area.

It’s a little different here, with rows of sloped cage racks.

Each row has three layers, and each layer is divided into small grids. Outside the grids are equipment for drinking water and feeding, and underneath are the manure collection areas.

And in each small grid, there is a clean, beautiful, furry rabbit.

It has snow-white fur, long ears and red eyes, and it crawls around in the cage eating and drinking.

At a glance there are tens of thousands of them.

Sister Qu opened a cage at random and took one out by pinching its ear.

"Look, this is the Shuxing No. 1 meat rabbit. It's almost ready for the market. It weighs about four kilograms and can produce two kilograms of meat."

"The meat is tender and has no fishy smell. It is suitable for spicy rabbit head, cold rabbit, silk-wrapped rabbit, red oil rabbit cubes, dipped rabbit, dumb rabbit, or crispy rabbit."

"Come, feel it."

After Sister Qu listed a lot of rabbit dishes, she handed the rabbit in her hand to Luo Shaoan.

Luo Shaoan didn't dare to lift the rabbit by its ears, but instead held the rabbit in his arms like a baby.

He weighed it and said with a smile, "It is indeed very heavy, at least four pounds."

And this rabbit was really well behaved. It curled up its legs and lay in Luo Shaoan's arms. It sniffed with its three-petal mouth or small nose. Its long ears fluttered twice, and its eyes narrowed...

For the audience in the live broadcast room to like.

[Don’t say eat rabbit in front of Rabbit! ! ! ]

[The rabbit is so cute, we must make something delicious! ]

[I want spicy food]

[What are dipped rabbit, dumb rabbit, and crispy rabbit? Are they delicious? ]

Well, liking it is secondary, the main thing is greed.

Luo Shaoan played with the rabbit for a while and then put it back into the cage.

Then she pointed at the breeding center and asked, "Sister Qu, this is a big investment, right?"

Sister Qu smiled and said, "It is indeed expensive, but it is really worth it. After using it for more than half a year, I find that it is really worry-free. After the environment is well controlled, statistics show that there are fewer illnesses and losses, and the growth rate is very controllable. The meat grows steadily and is released steadily, which is very suitable for standardization. The weight difference of the rabbits released from this farm does not exceed 50 grams."

"Also, the manpower is reduced, and the cost is reduced a lot. All in all, it is very cost-effective. I plan to build a few more next year."

This is how it works in business. Once you have some money, you want to expand.

But speaking of reduced manpower.

Luo Shaoan immediately realized that there would be problems if he didn't explain it clearly.

He immediately asked, "Ah? Sister Qu, if there is a shortage of manpower... then I see there are a lot of people in the nearby villages, is this a job opportunity..."

Although it was not stated explicitly, the meaning was clear...
