This was obviously a very common question, but Niu Ben felt something was strange.
However, he is a professional cattle breeder after all, so he still answered seriously: "The meat of cows is tender and tender, and the meat of bulls is more fragrant."
"Furthermore, cows and calves are more expensive, but their adult weight will be lighter. For example, our cattle, adult bulls can weigh about one thousand or one thousand two hundred kilograms, and cows weighing one thousand kilograms are considered good. Most of them weigh 800-1,000 catty.
After thinking for a while, he added: "Those who can gain 2,000 pounds are beef cattle."
That's it...
Professor Song laughed: "Yan Ran, you have heard so much, tell me how you would like to match it if it were you.
Yan Ran closed the note. At this moment, I pondered for a moment: Tantan's family needs a lot of funds this year, and calves are also quite expensive, so this year we focus on bulls. "
She made a calculation in her mind: "Of these seventy cows, it is best to ensure that 40-50 are bulls. If we feed them like this for one to one and a half years, we will have at least 40,000 to 50,000 jins next year, which should be enough for Tan I think I can earn a few million back."
With these millions, I can feel free to do whatever I want next.
"Then for the remaining cows, we will adopt a high-quality breeding model, giving birth to calves every year, and then slowly increase the number of adjustments later..."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Song Tan and Professor Song: "Is this okay?"
Professor Song nodded: "I think it's okay."
Song Tan blinked: "Of course I think it's okay."
Only Niu Ben stood there blankly: Something seems not right...
"Wait!" He reacted: "Why are you so confident! Even if the calves weigh three to four hundred kilograms, free-range calves may not be guaranteed to gain more than 600 kilograms in one and a half years!
"And even if it's fifty thousand kilograms, it's not much money. It's seven hundred thousand at most."
Seven hundred thousand is a lot of money for ordinary people, but for a cattle farm, it is nothing! That's it, it's because of free-range breeding
The reason why the slaughter price of cattle is much higher than that of beef cattle!
Where do you make millions?
Oh my God, is this girl calculating the selling price as the supermarket price?
Even if you kill them yourself and sell them in bulk, there will still be a purchase price! The meat yield rate of cattle is only 35% to 50%. How much can it be sold for?
Niu Jia, who was holding the child, also frowned:
"You think it's too simple. Raising cattle is not a game, you can harvest with just a click of the mouse... In fact, the entire breeding process, whether it is nutritional ratio, regular monthly weighing, feed adjustment, and diseases Prevention and simple disease treatment, etc., all require effort and cost.”
"Don't have this idea that it will be a smooth road. It's not possible."
The child was already able to walk, and now he put him on the grass. He walked and ran, and made a rustling sound when he got into the short grass.
Then he suddenly grabbed a piece of dogtail grass, exposed his head, and imitated his father's words loudly:
"No way!"
It was originally a very serious advice, but when it was interrupted like this, the Niu brothers were speechless.
Of course Song Tan would not sell the cattle directly.
Even if they were sold, they would have to be killed on her farm.
There is no other meaning, she just plans to make more glutinous rice next year, mix it with spiritual energy, and freeze it like this year. She feeds whichever animal she wants to kill, and then waits for the cow to get drunk before slaughtering it...
There is no point in spending extra time on this procedure other than to relieve their pain.
Of course, professional slaughterhouses now use mechanical slaughtering, which is fast and painless. but………………
Song Tan thought to herself that when she was a kid raising pigs, Wulan wouldn't let her say these words before slaughtering them, because the pigs could really understand them, and then they would panic and stop eating or lose weight if they ate less.
The same applies to cattle and sheep. Not feeling pain does not mean not being afraid.
Just like she promised Qiao Qiao, she wouldn't hurt them when she killed them.
That has to be done. Otherwise, Qiao Qiao might shed tears!
Thinking about it this way, I will have to build a cold storage next year!
Alas, money!
When she thought of this, her thoughts went astray. It took her a while to come back to her senses. Then she smiled at the speechless Niu brothers and turned on her phone:
"Boss Niu, I know you are doing this for my own good. But don't worry, you see, this is our online store——"
cough.
Song Tan was a little stuck, because there was nothing in the online store, almost all of it was off the shelves.
She quickly began to think about where to open the backstage?
Boss Niu is not stupid, he also uses Taotaobao. Now he stared at the store with 234,478 fans, and then looked at the few products at the bottom, and couldn't help but sigh:
"It's no use paying attention to so many stores - hiss!"
He gasped!
What Song Tan showed was the data from the backend of the online store. The most recent sales display was roasted chestnuts with sugar, and more than 2,000 orders were sold in ten minutes!
However, the transaction volume is 264,000!
Niu Ben suddenly raised his head: "How many kilograms of chestnuts did you sell?"
Song Tan replied: "3,000 kilograms.
For a moment, the grassland was silent, with only the noon wind blowing.
After a long while, Niu Jia picked up his phone and counted: "88 per catty? Are you selling golden chestnuts?"
At this time, Yan Ran also said: "Senior brother, Tantan's farming skills are so good. Even at this price, her chestnuts are not enough to grab."
"So, don't worry if you sell your cattle to her, the price will definitely be high! There are still regular customers. Maybe in a few years, you will come to her to bring in calves!
Niu Ben wanted to say that farming and breeding are not the same thing.
But she can sell chestnuts for RMB 88 per catty. She can't lose money on this marketing no matter what.
In this case, he'd better stop worrying about others.
In this case……
He took out his calculator and started doing calculations:
70 cows will probably weigh about 300-400 kilograms, 50 males and 20 females. The total price is about 450,000. We will calculate the specific weight in detail.
"in addition…"
He mused: "I'll give you the three calves."
"In addition, if you are able to raise them well, I have two premature buffalo calves here. They are too small and very weak. They only weigh about 200 kilograms... I will give them to you too."
As he spoke, he led everyone to the corner of the pasture: "This is not my cow, but a cow from a nearby village. It fell pregnant and fell down the slope... I looked pitiful and took it back. I thought about raising her for a year and giving Jiajia that little one water and milk to drink...
Buffalo milk is more fragrant and sweeter than ordinary milk. I think children will like it.
As a result, the calf was too weak and could not be exposed to the wind or sun. After four months of raising it, it was still a little big. I was afraid that even after two years of raising buffalo milk, it would not be able to survive. .z.
Seeing that Song Tan didn't mind and even liked it, he just asked. When someone brings tea, he gives cows. Reciprocity!
His cow is not cheap either!
Only Niu Jia looked moved:
"Brother, the baby was a little weak when he was just born. Now he has been raised for a long time. There is no need to worry about getting water and milk... Huh? Where is the baby?
Everyone stopped in surprise.
The next moment, I heard a burst of children's wails from the distance:
"Mom...Dad...Dad is gone, wuwuwu..."
