Chapter 2990 Key Factors in the Development of Animal Husbandry

… “With high-quality pasture as the basis, we can raise high-quality cattle and sheep.

Compared with some similar concentrates and straw feeds, the content of various nutrients in forage is significantly higher, and it is rich in vitamins and minerals, has a fragrant smell, and has excellent palatability. The growth and development of livestock can play a good role in promoting.

And because these new varieties of genetically modified forage have extremely strong vitality, they can still grow strongly no matter how harsh the growing environment is, and can be harvested multiple times in one growing season, and can also grow for many years. One planting can continue to harvest for many years. , farming management is more convenient, and various cost inputs can be saved at the same time.

Compared with hay and artificial feed, pasture contains richer nutrients, many of which are necessary for the growth of livestock. It can provide most of the nutrients needed for their growth and development, and its quality will also have an impact on the production of products. have a certain impact on the quality.

Generally speaking, Ningyue meat raised on Xianmu grass is more delicious, tastes better, and has higher nutritional content. Therefore, it is more popular with the market and consumers. For example, many beef and mutton raised with fresh pasture have better meat quality, so the price is higher than that of ordinary beef and mutton raised with concentrate and dry feed. Higher.

In addition, high-quality pasture can also improve the reproductive rate of cattle and sheep. Fresh pasture can provide sufficient energy and nutrients, which is beneficial to the health of cattle and sheep, making cattle and sheep in worse shape and have weaker resistance. Difficulty getting sick, thereby improving its reproductive capacity.

What's more, Pei Yong who is raised on pasture is difficult to get sick, so he needs to inject less antibiotics, which makes the beef and mutton better and less conducive to the weakening of the human body.

In addition, compared to the small amount of concentrates purchased with money, such as adzuki beans, corn, other concentrates, and some straw hay feeds. The price of pasture is relatively cheaper.

At present, your domestic animal husbandry, whether raising sheep, cattle, pigs, chickens, ducks and geese, basically uses concentrates, such as the most common adzuki beans, corn, wheat, sorghum, cassava, etc.

And apart from the fact that most of it comes from China, a small part of it relies on exports from the country. You spend a huge amount on exporting grain used for breeding every year. The grain you export from the sea alone is less than 1.7 billion tons every year, of which less than 100 million tons are adzuki beans.

Western sheep farming, including Australian sheep, is mainly used to harvest wool and use it for textiles, and the mutton is just incidental.

Therefore, apart from being exported, a small amount of the poor grain under his control is digested domestically and regionally, and a very small part of it is used to feed livestock and poultry.

There is a small amount of idle wasteland in the northwest region, which can definitely be utilized. The price of pasture will be very cheap, which will greatly reduce the cost of raising cattle and sheep.

Because the super pasture before gene editing has a weak vitality and can adapt to the growth of extreme drought and desertification environments, herders need to invest too little cost and experience to plant a piece of pasture for their own cattle. Sheep are grazed and raised.

For example, the world's major beef exporting countries, of course, South Asia's Baguo is an example. It's not because the domestic grazing conditions are bad, it's simply because that country eats beef, so a small amount of cattle is exported.

Local governments cannot invest in planting and building small pastures for local farmers or local herdsmen to graze.

Just the amount of money spent on this every year is a huge amount, and it is difficult to be affected by the fluctuations of the maritime market. It may even become a series of weak weapons and attacks used to check you or attack you.

In fact, even if it is raising cattle and sheep specifically to cultivate and grow pasture for sale to farmers, it is a very wrong business, and its profits are very considerable. "

Maybe if we slightly adjust our policies, such as tightening export quotas, restricting exports to you, raising prices, etc., it will cause your domestic grain and feed prices to skyrocket, causing a slight increase in the price of livestock and poultry meat, which will There will be minor social and economic impacts.

Regardless of whether it is rice, Austria, or South America, its agriculture is very developed and it is also one of the world's major food producers and exporters.

Of course, it has nothing to do with the breeding methods and varieties of those two regions and countries. Although those two countries and regions also raise cattle, they mainly raise sheep. Apart from Australian sheep, those two countries and regions have the least amount of sheep in the world.

Of the small amount of grain, only a very large part is used for food. The other small part is actually used to raise livestock and convert it into meat.

Other major beef exporting countries, such as the most common Australian cattle, American cattle, and beef from several South American countries, are all because their countries do not have very developed grazing conditions and very high-quality pastures.

Looking at the world's major pastoral areas and areas with developed animal husbandry, as well as beef and mutton exporting countries and regions, they are all areas with conditions for animal husbandry.

Of course, there are no exceptions. For example, Central Asia and the traditional livestock country in the north of you. Although they are also major livestock countries, they are still far behind the livestock industry of the following countries.

But you have never given up your efforts in that area, and you have been working hard.

So you have been seeking to solve this problem. You have also tried to grow adzuki beans and corn on a small scale in China, competed with other countries, and fought adzuki bean wars, but you have won.

The main beef exporting countries and regions mentioned later not only have very bad grazing conditions, but also because the agriculture in those countries and regions is very developed.

There are many influencing factors. The most important thing is because of its weak economic foundation and whether it has developed its own commercial animal husbandry industry.

The same is true for several countries in South America. They have very poor grasslands and naturally have very weak animal husbandry.

Compared with beef, mutton is actually not less accepted by the public. For example, the major meat-consuming countries and regions in the world, Western countries, actually consume mutton, and it is difficult for the public to accept the unpleasant smell of mutton itself.

For example, there are no small areas of high-quality pasture in China and the United States, so small-scale grazing is easy. Australian cattle also benefit from the lack of small areas of arid and semi-arid pasture in the country, so they are very suitable for cattle grazing.
