Beef cattle have strong adaptability to breeding and are not picky about feeding. They can be raised in captivity and free range, or semi-grazing and semi-captive.

Due to the improvement of living standards in recent years, the demand for beef has greatly increased, and every city requires a large amount of beef every day to meet the demand.

Therefore, beef cattle breeding is a very good entrepreneurial project. Here is the cattle breeding business plan I compiled for you for your reference.

Cattle Breeding Business Plan Part 1 1. Overview of Breeding Cooperatives The initial scale of the breeding farm construction is small, with about 20 breeding cattle, and approximately 100,000 to 150,000 yuan of capital is required.

Because the breeding farm is built in the countryside of Timen Township, it has a large amount of cheap or even free straw resources and sufficient water sources, which can save a lot of money and concentrated feed. Moreover, feeding in this way is also conducive to improving the meat quality of the cattle.

Because it is close to the origin of Luxi cattle, the breeding cattle are mainly Luxi cattle. In addition, they can be crossed with other breeding cattle to breed cattle with better quality.

2. Product introduction 1. Since Shandong has high-quality Luxi cattle, it can be used as one of the breeding cattle.

Luxi cattle are one of the precious cattle breeds in my country. They are tall, well-proportioned, strong and powerful, with high meat value and delicious meat.

Luxi cattle have strong fecundity. Cows can generally be bred and pregnant at the age of 8-10 months. Cows can give birth to 7-10 calves in their lifetime if they are first bred at 1.5-2 years old. The calving rate is high and the bulls are sexually mature.

A little later, breeding usually starts at the age of two, and can be used for 5-7 years.

In terms of production performance, according to the results of slaughter measurements, the average slaughter rate of 18-month-old steers is 57.2%, the clean meat rate is 49.0%, the bone-to-meat ratio is 1:6.0, the fat-to-meat ratio is 1:4.23, and the eye muscle area is 89.1 square centimeters.

The average slaughter rate of adult cattle is 58.1%, the clean meat rate is 50.7%, the bone-to-meat ratio is 1:6.9, the fat-to-meat ratio is 1:37, and the eye muscle area is 94.2 square centimeters.

The muscle fibers are thin, the meat quality is good, the fat is evenly distributed, and the marble pattern is obvious.

It grows rapidly and can reach 79% of its adult size at one year old, and its weight is 10.1 times its birth weight.

The individual is tall. The bull's body height is 146.3cm, body length is 160.9cm, chest circumference is 206.36cm, weight is 685.18kg, and the maximum weight is 1040kg.

The leather is good and does not look cute after processing.

It has a docile temperament, strong body and disease resistance, making it easy to feed and manage.

——In terms of reproductive performance, cows mature sexually early, and some can conceive at the age of 8 months.

Generally, estrus begins at 10-12 months of age, with an average estrus cycle of 22 days and a range of 16-35 days; the duration of estrus is 2-3 days.

The average gestation period is 285 days, with a range of 270-310 days.

The first postpartum estrus lasts on average 35 days, with a range of 22-79 days.

2. Because Charolais has a lot of beef, especially lean meat, and has been introduced in China, Charolais cattle can also be used for crossbreeding.

Charolais cattle originate from the Charolais and Nièvre regions from the central and western parts of France to the southeastern part of France. They are a world-famous large-scale beef cattle breed. Since they were bred, they have been distinguished by their fast growth, large amount of meat, large body size, and resistance to extensive farming.

Widely welcomed by the international market, it has already been exported to many countries around the world to participate in the breeding and cross-breeding of new beef cattle, or for purebred breeding in introducing countries.

The most significant characteristics of Charolais cattle in terms of production performance are: fast growth rate and high lean meat yield.

Under good feeding conditions, a 6-month-old male calf can weigh up to 250 kg and a female calf can reach 210 kg.

The daily weight gain can reach 1,400 grams, and the average adult live weight is 1,100-1,200 kilograms for bulls and 700-800 kilograms for cows.

In Canada, a bull can weigh up to 511 kilograms at one year old under good breeding conditions.

As a specialized large-scale beef cattle, this cattle has good meat production performance, with a slaughter rate of generally 60%-70% and a carcass lean meat rate of 80%-85%.

The carcass weight of the 16-month-old fattening cow reached 418 kilograms, and the slaughter rate was 66.3%.

Charolais cows have a high milk production and can produce 2,000 kilograms of milk in one lactation period, with a milk fat rate of 4.0%--4.7%. However, the dystocia rate of this cow is high (13.7%) during purebred breeding.

3. Based on the above information, we are confident to breed good breed cattle with large body size, good meat quality, fast growth, strong reproductive ability and good breast milk.

In recent years, our country has also carried out cross-breeding experiments with cattle, and achieved obvious results.

The performance is that the offspring of summer hybrids are significantly enlarged, the growth rate is accelerated, and the hybrid advantage is obvious.

4. As for epidemic prevention and cattle raising technology, guidance can be provided to the source of breeding cattle.

3. Market research and analysis 1. Nowadays, living standards are constantly improving. People are no longer limited to eating pork. The types of meat are increasing. Beef, in particular, is becoming more and more popular because of its delicious meat and good taste.

Moreover, the transportation is developed, the surrounding cities have a large population, and the demand is large.

Coupled with the advancement of refrigeration technology, it can also serve big cities such as Jinan, Beijing, and Tianjin.

2. The beef cattle industry faces good development opportunities.

First, the current supply and demand of beef cattle is changing to tight. In addition, the breeding cycle of beef cattle is long and the breeding volume is small. Therefore, tight supply and rising prices will be the main characteristics of the beef cattle market for a long time to come. Now is the time to develop.

Second, with the improvement of people's living standards and the increasingly diversified consumption targets, coupled with the increasing exchanges between my country and the world, and the increase in the number of tourists visiting China, the domestic demand for beef, especially high-end beef, will continue to increase, and the beef market will continue to grow. Broad prospects.
