Nairaland / General / Geese Farming Is Lucrative by Babausmanusman: 3:51pm On Dec 17, 2020 |
HOW TO START A SUCCESSFUL GEESE FARMING.. ☎️0814 4115 422 In the same vein, many developing countries now recognize the importance of livestock in integrated production systems to provide the sustainable increase in food necessary to feed their rapidly expanding population. Geese farming fits well into such system and are especially well adapted to the humid tropics. They can provide healthy meat and eggs. Raising geese The production of this animal gives farmers a big chance to increase their income and offers an alternative to chicken and also a means of addressing poverty. According to the Managing Consultant/CEO,Geese farming can commence even with a unit normally called a foundation stock, which is sold for between N20,000 to N60,000 depending on the specie. He said, a unit comprises 2-males and 6-females. Therefore with N65,000 you are already in good business. It may interest you to know that at Jovana Farms we have for sale fast growing species of geese and other animals including large quantity of quail and geese eggs. “Geese are found all over the world, but at present, Geese farming is economically important only in Asia, America, some parts of Africa and Central Europe. Breeds of Geese “Some European breeds, such as the Emden and Toulouse, have been introduced into tropical developing countries with notable success. Moreover, Chinese geese which are widely kept in South-East Asia, seem to be especially promising for small-holders. They are very good layers, active foragers (making them economical and useful as weeders), and the most alert and “talkative” breed and they produce the leanest quality white meat”. Geese as a multipurpose animal “Small-scale animal farmers subsist mainly on the product of their own farms, scarcity of land, labour and capital obliges them to reorient their livestock production towards species that are cheap and easy to maintain and that provide animal protein as well as cash income. Geese are particularly well suited to such systems. Mature geese are independent, larger than other poultry species and thus less vulnerable to predator when kept in small flocks and allowed to roam the farmland, field or backyard. They are adept scavengers, requiring less attention than any other domestic bird. Geese adapt easily to captivity if small quantity of supplementary feed are provided to boost their rapid growth. Thus, requiring little extra work, these animals supply nutritious meat, huge eggs and rich fat for cooking, as well as soft down and feather for bedding, clothing, upholstery, which makes them particularly appropriate for providing farmers with a supplementary income..

Nairaland / General / Poultry Farming Is Easy And Lucrative. by Babausmanusman: 4:43am On Dec 15, 2020 |
POULTRY FARMING IS LUCRATIVE BUSINESS. ☎️+234-8144-11-54-22 TYPES OF CHICKENS Chickens are generally categorized into those reared for their meat( broilers, cockerels) and those reared for eggs (layers) WHAT YOU NEED TO RAISE CHICKENS CAPITAL/MONEY This is where to start, poultry is capital intensive, but the rewards are worth it and I am going to show you how to ensure you get the rewards always in my blog. First, decide on the size of your farm – backyard farm, or will you be buying a piece of land for farming. Every farmer’s dream is to build a very big farm, but it’s important that you learn and grow towards a big farm. Most farmers start small by using the land they already own or using their backyards and it’s advisable you do the same unless you have a whole lot of capital to spend. Here’s an approximation for your poultry farming income if you are growing broilers. If you are doing 100 – 1,000 birds you need about 100,000 naira – 700,000 naira to raise them and your revenue will be within 200,000 naira – 3 million naira. If you are doing 1,000 – 3,000 birds you need about 800,000 naira – 2.5 million naira. I am sure you can already calculate the revenue you will earn on this and your profit. And the bigger your scale the larger your profit, and once you have your capital costs completed, you can use the structures and equipment for a long time. For new farmers, there are many places where you can rent this equipment. My typical advice is to start with a bit of your savings, typically within 10% – 30% of your savings (do not use all of your savings,) and when you truly understand the business and have demonstrable revenue then you can apply for a bank loan or overdraft. Handy tip: Start small and let financial success dictate your rate of expansion. FARM LOCATION Your location says everything about the success of your poultry. Poultry farms are best situated in rural settlements where the cost of land and labour is relatively cheap. However, keep in mind there must be a good transport/road network and access to water. It must also be easily accessible for you or the poultry farm manager (in other words, your farm should not be too far from you or whosoever will manage the daily affairs of the poultry. It should be your home away from home. POULTRY BREED/HATCHERY This goes hand in hand: the breed of your poultry and its hatchery source. Depending on the type of chicken whether meat chicken such as broilers and cockerels or egg laying type (layers,) you must get a breed that maximizes the potentials of your desire from a very reputable hatchery that has a history of good service. It’s important to note that the quality of day-old chicks you get is the beginning foundation of raising healthy birds. So when buying day old chicks make sure you commit a lot of time into researching and asking questions about each hatchery you want to buy from and the breed of chicken before making a purchase. If you do this wrong, you have set yourself up for failure. HOUSING SYSTEM AND POULTRY FARM EQUIPMENT There are different things you need to consider when building pens for your poultry. These things will inform the kind of housing system you will adopt for raising your healthy chickens. House systems are grouped as an intensive, semi-intensive or extensive system. For new farmers, you have to select a rearing system that suits your purpose/capital available. The extensive and semi-intensive system is majorly adopted by backyard farmers or farmers with access to large acres of lands where the birds can graze freely with good access to forage and sunlight. Poaching is a major disadvantage to this system and large scale farmers cannot win with this method. In the intensive system, birds are confined to battery cages or deep littered houses where ventilation and illumination must be factored into the construction of the housing system. The equipment used for rearing poultry is relative to the rearing and housing system adopted. Common equipment used are feeders, drinkers, heaters, brooders, cages, crates, et al with diverse types, brands and specifications all dependent on factors such as capital available, housing and rearing system. FEEDING AND WATER This is what I call “the Pareto principle of farming” – 80% of all your efforts, resources and time must go into this. You have done all that is necessary to come this far, and this now will become your daily work. You have to ensure your birds always have access to clean water on a daily basis.They must never suffer for lack of water.” And this is especially through when it comes to laying birds. If they do not see water for an extended period of time their egg production would suffer for a long time which impacts your profitability. The same goes with feeding, you have to ensure your birds get good access to well-balanced ration feed that suits their production levels. Feeding and watering your poultry will be your biggest operational challenges, do not waste any second in not getting it right. MEDICATIONS, VACCINATIONS AND BIOSECURITY Now is the time to call your vet doctor and in time, yes, you heard me right. There are routine medications and vaccinations that ensure the wellness of your birds to keep them safe from viruses, bacterial infections, pathogens and just in case, they catch an infectious disease. You critically need the advice and consultation of a very good vet doctor and do not forget general biosecurity as they say prevention is better than cure. I have seen very large poultry farms completely wiped out due to a disease or carelessness that could have been prevented if they had consulted with a vet doctor early on. It’s really important you do not joke with your poultry biosecurity. For more on poultry diseases and biosecurity, I have written a guide on all the medications, vaccines, and important biosecurity measures you need to raise healthy chickens. MARKETING AND SALES After all your diligence and hard work, you want some profit or satisfaction from your labour. This is where you dot all your ‘I’s and cross all your T’s. And as they say, before you embark on a journey, know your destinations. It is important you have concluded on how you want to sell your poultry produce knowing that they are perishable produce so storage and transportation are major factors to be considered. RECORD KEEPING Daily records should be kept. These should include space to record mortality, age, feed consumption, water use, vaccination and medication done, daily egg production, and records of any management or disease problems.
