Pigs and chickens that eat feed can make money. Why do some people lose money by raising local pigs and chickens?

Raising local pigs costs too much food. I once asked my sister-in-law that I bought her 100 chicken and told her to keep it. When I grow up, I will help her sell it. She shook her head repeatedly. She said that my family didn't have so much food and couldn't eat feed. It was too tiring to raise them. She said that she didn't want to raise all the poultry that eat food, and the cost was too high. For example, a chicken grows up and eats 65430. So she would rather farm than raise edible poultry.

Second, the cycle is too long.

It takes at least 180 days to raise local pigs, which is more than half the time to feed pigs. Others have sold two batches, but we can't sell this batch yet. Of course, it is not worthwhile to calculate the cost and time price.

Third, the scale can't be reached and the quantity can't be reached.

Because local chickens and pigs need free breeding, fences and environmental land. There are few large-scale free-range households. It's too much to raise thousands. It costs tens of thousands of dollars to sell once. Apart from other costs, there is almost no profit. Unlike feed, it usually raises hundreds of thousands, sells tens of thousands, and costs hundreds of thousands at a time.
