Cost and Profit Accounting for Goose Farming: How Much Money Is Needed for 1000 Geese in 2020?
For farmers, accounting for the costs and profits of farming is an extremely important task, and for goose farmers, the cost and profit accounting for goose farming in 2020 is also a problem they care about very much, so below let us take a look at how much money is needed for the farming costs and profits of 1000 geese.
China has a history of goose farming of more than 3000 years, has more than ten excellent goose breeds of various types, and is a major goose-farming country in the world, with an annual rearing volume of about 800 million geese, accounting for about 40% of the world's total goose farming. How much money is needed for the farming costs and profits of 1000 geese? Compared with pig farming, farming geese with the same amount of feed can obtain three times the output of pigs. Geese grow quickly, have a high feed utilization rate, and have a short rearing cycle, and can be ready for market in 60—90 days. Goose farming has high profits and fast economic turnover.
Below, the editor will take you to look at the profit and cost accounting for goose farming in 2017:
Geese grow quickly, have a high feed utilization rate, and have a short rearing cycle, and can be ready for market in 60—90 days. Goose farming has high profits and fast economic turnover. A gosling costs more than ten yuan, and after growing up, a large goose can sell for more than 70-100 yuan at market price. After deducting labor costs and other expenses, the profit per goose is generally more than 20 yuan. Therefore, the profit from farming 1000 geese is generally about 20000 yuan.
At present, the main methods of meat goose rearing in China are mainly two types: confined rearing and a combination of barn feeding and grazing. In China, small-scale meat goose rearing generally adopts the traditional method of combining barn feeding with grazing, while large-scale and intensive meat goose farming promotes the confined rearing model of planting grass to raise geese.
●Analysis of goose farming costs and profits in small-scale farming
1. Under grazing plus supplementary feeding conditions, the cost per goose: gosling: 8 yuan each; 0-15 days, small feed one jin × 1.6 yuan = 1.6 yuan; 10015-30 days: concentrated feed 2.5 jin × 0.9 yuan = 2.25 yuan; 30-70 days: grazing + concentrated feed 8 jin × 0.8 yuan = 6.4 yuan; 70 days to market: fattening feed 5 jin × 0.9 yuan = 4.5 yuan; immunization + medicine costs: 1 yuan;
Comprehensive cost: 8+1.6+2.25+6.4+4.5+1=23.75 yuan.
Calculated at an average body weight of 7 jin and 7.5 yuan per jin, the total is 52.5 yuan. After deducting the cost of 23.75 yuan, under grazing plus supplementary feeding conditions the profit per goose is more than 28 yuan.
2. Under confined rearing and feed feeding conditions, the cost per goose: young goose: 8 yuan each; 0-15 days, small feed one jin × 1.6 yuan = 1.6 yuan; 15-45 days: concentrated feed 9 jin × 0.9 yuan = 8.1 yuan; 45-75 days: roughage 15 jin × 0.8 yuan = 12 yuan; immunization + medicine costs: 1 yuan;
Comprehensive cost: 8+1.6+8.1+12+1=30.7 yuan.
Calculated at an average body weight of 7 jin and 7.5 yuan per jin, the total is 52.5 yuan. After deducting the cost of 30.7 yuan, under confined rearing and feed feeding conditions the profit per goose is more than 21 yuan.
●Analysis of goose farming costs and profits in large-scale farming
Farmers planning to engage in meat goose production need to analyze the benefits of meat goose farming, the rearing cycle, and the annual rearing batches. Taking the grass-planting goose farming model with 3000 meat geese per batch as an example, its farming benefits are:
(1) Output budget:
3000 meat geese are reared for 75 days. Calculated at a market body weight of 4.5 kg per bird, the total is 13500 kg. The selling price per kg of meat goose is calculated at 15.5 yuan/kg, so the total output value is 13500×15.5=209250 ten thousand yuan.
(2) Investment budget:
① Goslings:12 yuan/bird×3000 birds=3.6 ten thousand yuan.
② Feed cost:
Concentrated feed:1-7 days of age: 0.4 kg/bird×4 yuan/kg×3000 birds=0.48 ten thousand yuan. 8-21 days of age: 0.75 kg/bird×2.6 yuan/kg×3000 birds=0.585 ten thousand yuan. 21 days of age to market: 10 kg/bird×1.6 yuan/kg×3000 birds=4.8 ten thousand yuan.
Green feed:2 yuan/bird×3000 birds=0.6 ten thousand yuan.
③ Water, electricity, epidemic prevention:2 yuan/bird×3000 birds=0.6 ten thousand yuan.
④ Staff wages:2000 yuan/person, month×2 people×3 months=1.2 ten thousand yuan.
⑤ Goose house construction:1 ten thousand yuan.
The total of the above investments is 128650 ten thousand yuan.
(3) Net profit:209250 ten thousand yuan-128650 ten thousand yuan=80600 ten thousand yuan.
Therefore, raising one good-breed meat goose can generally yield a profit of about 20 yuan per goose. If calculated at 4 batches per year, with an annual rearing volume of 10000 meat geese, the net profit reaches more than 200000 ten thousand yuan.
Methods to reduce goose rearing costs
1. Choosing good breeds is the most critical
Excellent breed geese develop quickly, have a short growth cycle, lay many eggs, produce much meat, have good down quality, and have good economic benefits. Therefore, choosing high-quality good breeds is a key link in whether goose farming can increase efficiency. At present, China's excellent breeding geese include: Sichuan White Goose, Lion Head Goose, Wulong Goose, Zi Goose, Zhedong White Goose, Xupu Goose, etc.
2. Planting grass to raise geese reduces costs
Geese are herbivorous waterfowl and have a very high absorption rate of protein and fiber in green grass (similar to sheep). Weeds by roadsides, riverside ponds, field edges, and around houses can all be fed in appropriate amounts. This kind of feeding is more suitable for small-scale free-range feeding. Generally, for young geese from 7—21 days of age, the proportion of green grass demand (daily) in the grain ration increases from 10% to 90%, and at 28 days of age it can fully reach 100%. In this way, it not only saves grain, but also fully absorbs various grass nutrients and reduces feeding costs. For large-scale feeding by planting grass, its economic benefit is about 10 times that of pig farming, while the market cycle is only 1/3 of pig farming. In order to have green grass available for eating in all four seasons, perennial forage grass is generally chosen, such as: clover, Rumex, cup plant, and grain amaranth, etc. In addition to using perennial green grass, pumpkin and sweet potato can also be used as feed. Because planting grass to raise geese reduces feeding costs, its economic benefit is more than 1 times that of general poultry.
3. Gosling management is the prerequisite
Because goslings have sparse feathers, poor ability to regulate changes in external temperature, very imperfect functions of various organs, and low disease resistance, if management is poor and feeding is improper, it often causes large numbers of gosling deaths. Therefore, reasonable feeding of goslings is the prerequisite for goose farming and also a key link. First, when selecting goslings, be sure to choose healthy and strong goslings, make preparations for brooding, feed scientifically, and choose fine feed. Adding 10% grass powder to the feed can both reduce costs and improve feed utilization rate, ensuring balanced nutrition. Doing a good job in sanitation and epidemic prevention is very important. Anti-gosling plague serum should be injected in a timely manner, and oxytetracycline, norfloxacin, and olaquindox should be added to the feed for prevention. At the same time, drinking water should be clean, and the environment should be dry and well ventilated to avoid the occurrence of plague and disease, and trace elements should be supplemented regularly and in fixed amounts.
4. Timely marketing is very important
When to market the geese is very important, and this is the key to improving the comprehensive utilization rate of the goose body. For excellent hybrid commercial geese at 65—80 days of age, a body weight of generally 3—4 kg is suitable; for small and medium-sized geese at 70—90 days of age, when the body weight is 2.5—3.5 kg, they should be marketed in a timely manner. When marketing, good selection and retention of breeding geese should be done. Good-breed geese are generally fed until 6 months. Male geese at 180 days of age and female geese at about 200 days of age can be retained for breeding and mating. The male-to-female ratio is generally required to be 1:5—6, and excellent breeding geese can be used for 3—4 years. Breeding geese lay few eggs in the first year, and after two or three years they lay more eggs and the eggs are larger. The benefits of raising breeding geese and selling breeding eggs and goslings are all very high. However, simply selling live geese has the lowest benefit. The market prices of down, fatty liver, goose tongue, goose feet, internal organs, blood, etc. are all more profitable than simply selling geese, and their market sales are fast.
