Chapter 353

Mountains of alfalfa.

The earliest alfalfa was harvested at the beginning of last year, but it is still well preserved.

"1500 yuan per ton, including freight, we want 1 tons." Zhao Feng looked at the forage and said.

"2000 yuan per ton, not including freight." Chen Mo said.

"too expensive."

"There is no other way. 2000 yuan per ton is the lowest price." Chen Mo said.

Chen Mo and the others have just purchased 1 tons of corn, which will be used to make feed. The consumption of alfalfa will be relatively large in the future.

Moreover, there are dairy cows in Chentang, so they need more alfalfa.

"2000 yuan per ton is too expensive. We want 1 tons at a time. What's the minimum price?"

"Cheng Tang also bought tens of thousands of tons of alfalfa from me, all at the same price." Chen Mo said.

Cheng Tang shrugged and nodded.To be honest, he also felt that the price of 2000 yuan was too high.

More than 3000 acres of flat land can also be cleared out of alpine pastures. Not long ago, Cheng Tang reclaimed those flat lands and used them to grow alfalfa.

The alfalfa costing 2000 yuan also depends on the quality.Good quality alfalfa costs more than this.

The quality of alfalfa from Mushan Ranch can be said to be top-notch. 2000 yuan per ton is really not expensive.This kind of alfalfa is mainly used to feed dairy cows, horses, and pregnant cattle and sheep.

There is so much alfalfa here that Chen Mo can also use it to feed lactating ewes and milk the goats for sale.The alfalfa will not be left to rot...

Zhao Feng finally purchased alfalfa, priced at 2000 yuan per ton, and purchased 1 tons.But they just want new alfalfa.

The following days were uneventful.

Mushan Ranch has ushered in the birth season of Boer goats. More than 5 pregnant Boer goats will give birth in two months.

Most Boer goats with production experience can give birth to lambs by themselves without the need for midwifery.However, many first-born Boer goats need help from others to deliver them.

All the staff were on standby, and there were two shifts in the delivery room. The workers were so busy that they wanted to split one person into two.

It's evening and I just handed over the shift.

Chen Mo found Wang Xing and visited several delivery rooms together.

Artificially inseminated Boer goats, with current technology, also have multiple fetuses.

It is relatively rare for one child to be born in one litter.Mostly two or three.A few give birth to four or even five at a time.

If there is only one baby, no one will be needed to take care of it.

However, there are many lambs in one litter, and if there is no one to take care of them, the survival rate of the lambs will be very low.

This batch of concentrated lamb production is estimated to be able to produce [-] to [-] lambs.

"After this batch of lambs are weaned, there will be no shortage of lambs in Wushan." Wang Xing said.

Chen Mo said 'hmm' and said, "Giving two or three babies in one litter will harm the body of the ewe."

"No. We just need to feed the food better. On average, there are more than four Han sheep in one litter, and there is no problem. Normally, Boer goats have two or three in one litter, and there is no problem. It is normal. "Wang Xing said.

Chen Mo nodded.

"These lambs and ewes should be kept?" Wang Xing asked.

"Can you raise it?"

"Can be kept in captivity."

"Just keep [-] ewes, and we will start breeding replacement ewes in the future." Chen Mo said: "The number of ewes now is enough. We can raise some meat sheep appropriately."

Mushan County has built a cattle and sheep trading market. From now on, the cattle and sheep raised by the villagers themselves, mainly sheep, and some of the bred lambs will also be sold in the market.

Mushan Ranch can raise a total of about 12 official ewes, and then raise about [-] young ewes to replace the old ewes.However, the most important thing is to cultivate Han Sheep...

The ultimate goal is to have at least 7 ewes, 3 Boer goats, and 2 black goats.Reserve ewe flock, totaling 3.

As for the plan to produce goat milk, Chen Mo gave up completely.However, at the breeding center, Chen Mo still built a milking parlor.

There are a total of 6 milking parlors, each of which can accommodate 350 ewes for milking at the same time.The goat's milk is not mainly used to make money, but to feed the lambs.

There are several lambs in one litter, and the ewe doesn’t have enough milk.

After wandering around with Wang Xing, and just as he was about to go back, a milk truck came over.

This is a milk truck from an alpine pasture. Each truck contains 7 tons of milk.

Chen Mo's milking parlor has not yet been built. The milk was bought from Cheng Tang at a price of not cheap 2.5 yuan per catty.This time, it was more than 1 yuan.

The dairy cows currently producing milk in Chengtang are mainly Simmental cattle. There are many of them and the milk production is still very high.

Time passed day by day.

December is here soon.

Boer goat lambs are ready for sale.

The weight of a 3-month-old Boer goat is basically 35-50 kilograms.

Boer goats grow very quickly when they are lambs, especially in the third month, when their weight is very high.However, the lamb stage grows very quickly after three months.

Lambs are basically sold after weaning.Usually sold in two and a half to three months.It's late, and it's not very cost-effective for farmers to buy it back.If it is sold too early, the seller of the lamb will suffer a bit of a loss.

Zhang Cheng has been guarding the Mushan Ranch these past few days, transporting carloads of lambs to his pasture.

Compared with raising pigs, Zhang Cheng still prefers raising sheep.

It’s not that raising sheep is more profitable, but that sheep are docile and easier to raise.If you raise pigs, even if they are castrated pigs, if they escape from the pig pen, sometimes they cannot be caught.

Zhang Cheng bought a batch of white-striped pig seedlings in May, and now, more than [-] of his pigs have gone missing.

In December, the temperature drops sharply.

There are still more than ten days until the winter solstice, and the pig-killing feast has already been warmed up online.

However, Chen Mo and the others have handed over the pig killing feast to Haiming Event Planning Company.Regarding this matter, Chen Mo and the others didn't have much to worry about.

"Brother." Zhang Cheng drove over in the Wuling Mini and honked the horn.

Chen Mo came out of the office: "What are you doing?"

"Come here and settle the bill." Zhang Cheng said: "I still have some sheep over there that haven't been sold out. I'll pay you 1000 million first. The rest of the money will be settled before the New Year."

Chen Mo nodded and went to the finance room next to him. After the opening invoice, Chen Mo took Zhang Cheng back to the office and made a cup of space green tea: "The white-striped pig you have over there is too small. It's not cost-effective to kill it now. "

"You don't want to raise white-striped pigs. Kill the white-striped pigs and I'll raise a batch of black pigs here. The piglets are all reserved." Zhang Chengdao: "Then make room to raise sheep. You can do it here, 10,000+ A lamb.”

"On average, a lamb costs more than 700 yuan. One hundred thousand, only more than 7000 million yuan." Chen Mo said.

"It's only over 7000 million, I'm so sad."

Chen Mo smiled and said: "The workers here are well-paid. On average, the per capita annual salary is 27 yuan. A year's salary costs more than 8000 million yuan."

"That's the money you can make. What are you doing with more than 8000 million?"

"You ordered 5 tons of silage, but you consumed more than 3 tons?" Chen Mo asked.

Zhang Cheng said 'hmm': "The fat pigs over there are fed three times a day, mainly silage, and then corn plus silage at night. Silage consumption is high."

"With more than 3 pigs, have you ever calculated how much money you can make?"

"The profit is not bad, it should be 3000 to [-] million." Zhang Chengdao.

How much money you can make in the end depends mainly on the price.The pigs are grass-fed, and they have been raised since May, and now they have been raised for more than six months.Speaking of which, these piglets are still doing well, eight or nine months old, from birth to now.

Those pigs are not very big, and the average weight is about 170 kilograms.After all, they eat more grass and less grain, and they don’t feed any messy hormones.
