Since June 5438+ 10 last year, due to the outbreak of avian influenza in some areas of China, people have been infected with epidemic diseases and died one after another, the poultry industry has been struggling, the cherry valley duck breeding industry has been seriously affected, consumers' confidence in poultry products has been greatly affected, the price of poultry products has been continuously depressed, processing enterprises have suffered serious losses, and farmers' enthusiasm has been frustrated.
With the passage of time, the epidemic situation of bird flu gradually lifted, and the price of cherry valley duck gradually rose. In late August, the average slaughter price of Shandong hairy ducks was from 5.5 yuan to 5.6 yuan per kilogram, and the average price of duck meat was from 4,800 yuan to 5,000 yuan per ton. Except Weifang, Qingdao and other eastern regions, a small number of farmers breed "social ducks" and most farmers breed "contract ducks", so the price of cherry valley ducks remains stable. Although farmers earn less money, they quit the market.
One is to earn one or two yuan, but because I am not worried about sales, I am very practical. At the current market price of 4800 ~ 5000 yuan per ton of duck meat, slaughtering and processing enterprises are also profitable.
In view of this situation, some local governments and relevant departments have issued a series of preferential policies to encourage farmers to expand the scale of farming. For example, for every new shed in the village with more than 50 standard cherry valley duck breeding communities, 20,000 yuan in cash will be awarded; Farmers give priority to using loans from rural credit cooperatives to support agriculture and so on.
At the same time, leading enterprises of Cherry Valley Duck have developed rapidly.
In Boxing County alone, there are several leading enterprises such as Kang Hua Food Co., Ltd., Boda Food Co., Ltd. and Tianpeng Duck Industry Co., Ltd., which integrate the breeding, hatching, slaughtering and processing of cherry valley ducks ... Kang Hua Company has 600 duck farms, which hatch 0/20,000 ducklings every year. In 2005, the company slaughtered and processed commercial ducks150,000, achieving sales income of 400 million yuan. The company owns 14 standardized breeding demonstration base and has established close cooperation with 3 160 cherry valley duck farmers. In addition to Boxing County, it also spread to seven counties and cities including Bincheng, Huimin, Gaoqing, Huantai, Guangrao, Lijin and Shouguang. Tianpeng Duck Industry Co., Ltd. is the earliest private enterprise in Binzhou to manage cherry valley ducks. At present, there are 0/0000 ducks in stock, and 8000 commercial ducks are slaughtered and processed every day. The company has 200 greenhouses and now raises 200,000 commercial ducks. The comprehensive annual output value of each industry is more than 80 million yuan, driving more than 400 large duck farmers in Cherry Valley. Why do some people raise ducks to make money but really can't? Because of the recent outbreak of avian flu in Hong Kong, the Hong Kong government has made up its mind to cancel the sale of live poultry and want to withdraw the poultry business license, but the final agreement has not yet been reached, but it can be seen that the frozen poultry market will become the mainstream of the poultry market and the live poultry market will definitely withdraw from the historical stage.
In Shandong, Jiangsu and other places, there are generally specialized companies to buy ducks from farmers. Their main risks are only the risks of prices and diseases, which are not found in Hubei and other places. Generally, live ducks mainly face the live duck market directly. Because of the lack of market information, seedlings swarmed in, and as a result, when they could not sell, they lost hundreds of dollars a day, and were dragged by those black-hearted live duck wholesalers, because only they could sell, and the price was what they said. Otherwise, you will continue to lose hundreds of dollars every day. Anyway, wholesalers are not in a hurry. Compared with farmers in Shandong, there is a risk that they will not be sold, in addition to price and disease. Therefore, meat duck farmers in Hubei and other places are the most pitiful.
All this is for those farmers, can they seek the same way as Shandong, and hope that those powerful slaughter companies can set up factories in these places. On the one hand, there is a large market for frozen poultry in the central region, on the other hand, there are no smaller breeding groups in the central region than in the north. One of the reasons why this friend has this view is that raising ducks is definitely not profitable. In addition, new farmers have just come into contact with this industry. Generally speaking, new farmers are catching up with this upsurge. When they see others making money, they will follow Miao Zi. Others will not lose money to raise seedlings. Many times, they are taking advantage of the loopholes and can only judge to make money by luck, because the market price fluctuates greatly, and they do not have the analytical ability for this industry. The price fluctuates with the supply. The backlog of goods is naturally small, and the supply is in short supply, and the price will definitely rise. There is another reason. Some even switch to three or four middlemen, just because the price of ducklings is already low, and the price of three or four middlemen will be much higher invisibly. Some middlemen, regardless of the interests of farmers, make their own money first, and say that it is good to raise ducklings and can guarantee sales. Of course, when there are few goods, no one can guarantee sales, and when there are many goods, there is nothing they can do. The only victims are farmers, mainly because they have not found a reliable seller. There are many long-term farmers in Jingzhou, many of whom have been raised for decades, so they can survive for a long time. Because of their understanding of aquaculture, marketing ducks is risky, but there is no risk. Why do you say that? The market has ups and downs. No matter how old your qualifications and experience are, you can't say that you don't lose money at all, that is, if you lose money, you will gain. As long as we can find a good breeding method and find a seller who can guarantee sales, there will be no loss. Raising ducks can still make money for them most of the time, and they can make a lot of money when the market is good. It often earns seven or eight yuan, just like this year's farmers can make a net profit of 10 yuan in the first two months, and two batches of ducks can make a net profit of 20 thousand yuan. In this low tide period (June 2008), the price of meat duck is only 1000 yuan > 2,000 yuan, and even if you calculate this account, you can make money. Of course, it doesn't mean that you should continue to raise seedlings according to market dynamics. If it is obvious that these seedlings will lose money and have little chance of making big profits, then farmers will of course choose to plant less or not. Generally, duck farmers keep one duck a year, and the average profit is almost 3 to 4 yuan. Generally, a farmer raises 8,000 ducks a year, which means that the average annual income of raising ducks is 30,000 to 40,000 yuan. If it is a contract duck, the profit of a duck is generally 1 to 2 yuan, but for farmers, the profit of breeding is reduced rather than increased. Because many enterprises wanted to expand slaughter on a large scale last year and the year before last, I didn't expect everyone to think of this. If the goods are supplied to the market, it will have a great impact on the market, because the market has its demand. If this demand is exceeded, it will directly affect the national frozen duck price. If the price is low, the slaughterhouse can't make money. If this continues, two things will happen. First, the refrigeration plant will reduce farmers' profits, and second, it will not survive. Why there are market ducks in most places in the south! And the north doesn't! Because there is no market for live ducks in the north, live ducks have their unique advantages, which cannot be replaced by frozen ducks. Southerners have formed eating habits for ducks, and many products can't be made by frozen ducks, so the live duck market in the south can't be completely replaced.
