If you don't want to work, can 20 ewes with small tail Han sheep develop into a career at home?

I don't want to work, but I want to go home and raise sheep as my career. This is ok, there is no problem at all, but only 20 ewes with small tails are raised. I think if we don't farm or do anything else, there will still be less, and it will be difficult to support a family.

First of all, explain my own point of view. This is what I mean as a sheep farmer. Everyone is regarded as a passer-by There is no need to conceal incidental income. This is not my personal practice.

My hometown is a sheep farmer. It has been three generations since my grandfather came to me. Although the scale is not too large, it is also a sheep farmer. Small-tailed Han sheep and Hu sheep are the main sheep in the family, with a total scale of more than 20, and the annual incidental income is about 1 10,000. Because it is still planted in the ground, it is impossible to raise too many.

Personally, I raise sheep, mainly by half-grazing and half-feeding, which is also the lowest cost and the best profit for our rural people to raise sheep, but the only drawback is that a person has to run with sheep all day.

At the same time, there are a large number of wasteland, woodland and grassland in rural areas, which just solves the problems of grazing sites and forage for sheep. Sheep are free to eat every day, so it is not easy to get sick. This is the basic situation of raising sheep.

So why does it feel a little less to keep 20 ewes full time? Let's talk about my own views:

Small-tailed Han sheep is a kind of high-yield sheep, with high multiple births, fast growth, high meat yield, rough feeding tolerance and easy management. This is an accepted fact. Of course, the price of sheep is also very good this year, and most people who raise sheep also make money.

However, we should also consider the bright side, which is the real reality. Although small-tailed Han sheep are prolific, no one can guarantee that each sheep can give birth to 2-4 sheep at a time, and the survival rate of sheep is unknown.

At the same time, the price of sheep is good and the profit is high this year, so raising sheep can make money. So who can guarantee that the price will be so good next year and the year after? No one can guarantee this estimate. Then think about it, if the price of sheep reaches a low point, how much money will you make?

In this way, do a good calculation by yourself. How much will be left after throwing away the output of 20 sheep a year? How big is the income gap compared with my old job?

abstract

It is right to raise sheep as a full-time job and make a fortune by breeding, but what we need to do is to calculate according to our actual situation before breeding, set ourselves a good goal, and then it is not too late to implement it. Of course, it is also possible to raise 20 ewes at the beginning, breed slowly with the maturity of technology and experience, and then gradually expand the scale. This is also the safest and safest way.
