Centipede farming has a low entry threshold and is a good way to get rich easily

As Chinese medicinal materials gain popularity worldwide, this also brings new opportunities for the export of centipedes as medicinal material. As a traditional Chinese medicine, centipedes have long been favored by the international pharmaceutical market, especially in developed countries such as Europe, America and Southeast Asia, which import large quantities from China every year, making it a sought-after product in China's animal medicine exports. In addition, centipedes are not only used as medicine; in dietary therapy and nourishment they are also welcomed by Chinese people for their effects such as nourishing yin and strengthening yang, preserving youth and nourishing the complexion, and fighting cancer and dispersing masses. In major cities across China, centipedes have long been used as medicinal cuisine.

All of this has caused the market demand for centipedes to rise sharply, but on the other hand, because large amounts of chemical fertilizers and pesticides are used in agricultural production, the natural reproduction and growth of centipedes have been greatly affected, and their numbers are constantly decreasing. Coupled with excessive human capture, wild centipede resources have almost reached the edge of extinction. Centipede farming urgently needs rapid development in order to effectively solve the problem of a serious shortage in the centipede market supply. At present, domestic artificial centipede farming has also begun to take shape, and a number of standardized centipede farming enterprises have already developed.

Changsha Guoyu Technology Development Co., Ltd., a leading domestic high-tech enterprise, is an outstanding representative among them. As a high-tech enterprise integrating the cultivation of fine varieties, product development and technical services, Changsha Guoyu has always been committed to the large-scale development of the special breeding industry, and has achieved remarkable results in centipede farming. The “Hongjinlong No. 3” it bred has become the variety most chosen by centipede farmers at present because of advantages such as simple feeding, gentle temperament, strong adaptability, fast growth, high reproduction rate and better medicinal value, and has also been praised by experts as the variety most suitable for promotion and farming.

At present, artificial centipede farming has low requirements for conditions, a short farming cycle, fast growth, high yield and easy management, and can be done both as family farming and large-scale farming. Moreover, the three-dimensional centipede farming technology launched by Changsha Guoyu is a domestic first, and is currently the most advanced centipede farming technology in China. It can bring more than 90% higher economic benefits than traditional ordinary tile farming, and has successfully obtained a patent. By adopting Changsha Guoyu's centipede farming technology, centipede farmers only need to use spare rooms indoors to achieve three-dimensional farming, for example by using glass, templates, and cement square frames with multiple layers of specially made centipede beds inside; they can also farm them in jars, boxes, or plastic buckets, which is very convenient. In addition, centipede farmers can also use outdoor spaces in front of and behind houses, or barren hills and slopes, to enclose pools for rearing, and can also use vegetable greenhouses to build pools for rearing, or even use barren islands in reservoirs, rivers and lakes for large-area rearing. Centipede farming in these different places can all be easily achieved with the centipede farming technology developed by Changsha Guoyu.

In recent years, centipede supply has been in short supply and prices have continued to rise, from a few cents per centipede in the last century to more than two yuan each now. In some areas, wild centipedes find it difficult to meet the demand of domestic and international markets, thus giving rise to artificial centipede farming as a special breeding industry. Because the technology is simple and easy to learn, the labor intensity is low, and it can be done both as specialized farming and in spare time, centipede farming has become the easiest way to get rich at present.
