CATDOLL : CATDOLL: How is the benefit of golden cicada breeding? Zhihu (How is the benefit of golden cicada breeding? Zhihu article)

1. What is the profit of raising cicadas on ten acres of land?

The profit of raising cicadas on ten mu of land is eight thousand yuan

If we only count the cost of raising golden cicadas, since it has its own orchard, the cost of buying branches is 1,000 yuan. Twice a year, it costs 2,000 yuan. If we get profits after 3 years, based on an annual output of 200 kilograms of golden cicadas per mu of land, the price of golden cicada Ajin is 30-40 yuan, and the total income is 6,000-8,000 yuan. The total income of 10 mu of land is 60-8,000 yuan.

2. Is it profitable to raise cicadas?

Golden cicada, which is called "cicada" in rural areas, is now deeply loved by consumers. More and more people like this delicacy with high nutritional value. Every 100g of golden cicada contains 72g of protein, 15g of fat, and various vitamins such as calcium, iron, phosphorus, etc. that are essential for the human body. The protein content of golden cicada is 3.5 times that of beef, 6.8 times that of pork, 4 times that of mutton, and 3 times that of chicken, making it a rare natural, pollution-free, high-end nutritious food. Moreover, the golden cicada shell is one of the very important Chinese herbal medicines, and golden cicada has great prospects in the breeding market.

To breed cicadas, choose healthy tree species with well-developed root systems, lush growth, and rich juice, such as poplar, elm, willow, tung or various fruit trees. In addition, some root plants are also needed, such as potatoes, yams, etc.

The environment for breeding cicadas should be "30 to 50 cm deep". The sunny side should be protected from frost. The soil should be loose, fertile, and pollution-free. It should not be too dry, nor too high in water content, to ensure the normal development of the roots of the host plants.

In the process of breeding cicadas, primary seed sources can be obtained by picking naturally in the field. Eggs, nymphs and adults can all be picked as seed sources. August to September is the best season for collecting nymphs, and September is the best time to collect branches with eggs.

The season for breeding cicadas is from the beginning of March to the beginning of June in the Gregorian calendar. The hatched eggs are planted from the end of April to the end of June in the Gregorian calendar. It is not suitable to plant them too early or too late. (The best breeding season is from May to June in the Gregorian calendar)

I hope this can help you. The road to entrepreneurship is very hard. I wish you success.

Cost and benefit analysis of breeding golden cicada

Golden cicada is a high-protein, low-fat wild insect with extremely high medicinal nutritional value and unique taste. It will become an important green health food in the future and will also become a longevity food for humans in the future.

Due to environmental destruction and the felling of trees, their living environment has been severely damaged. Coupled with the indiscriminate hunting by humans, the cicada resources have been seriously depleted, the output has dropped sharply year by year, and the market gap is huge. It has become an urgent task to carry out artificial large-scale breeding.

At present, cicada breeding mainly uses the open space under the fruit trees, and a small investment can create a big business. Compared with the traditional breeding industry, it has obvious advantages such as small investment and large returns. Now, taking one person managing a 10-acre cicada farm as an example, the following benefit analysis is made (the breeding method is implemented according to our newly invented patented technology):

Artificially cultivated golden cicadas climb trees

(1) Investment. First, the investment in egg planting: generally, 2,000 egg branches are planted per mu, and the purchase price of each branch is 0.5 yuan in the off-season, so 1,000 yuan is required for 1 mu of egg planting; second, the investment in labor, 300 yuan per mu for the annual placement of egg branches and management (Golden Cicadas do not need to be fed for epidemic prevention, which saves a lot of labor); third, the land rental fee is 700 yuan per mu; fourth, the cost of planting willow seedlings is 600 yuan per mu for 300 trees. All the seeds are collected by yourself during the harvest season, and no other investment is required. In total, 2,600 yuan is invested per mu.

In this way, the total investment for 10 mu of land in the first year is 26,000 yuan (Note: if it is your own land, you can save 700 yuan in rent). In the second year, you need to invest 20,000 yuan plus the 26,000 yuan in the first year, a total of 46,000 yuan; in the third year, you need to invest another 20,000 yuan plus the investment in the first and second years, a total of 66,000 yuan (Note: After the second year, no investment is required for tree seeds, only egg seeds, land rent and labor costs).

(2) Profits. According to our new patented technology, the survival rate of young cicadas can reach 40%-60%, 20% will emerge in the second year, and more than 95% will emerge in the third year. Each egg branch contains an average of more than 100 cicada eggs. The survival rate is calculated as the lowest 40% (the survival rate in nature is 10%-15%). Each branch can produce 40 cicadas, and 2,000 egg branches can produce more than 80,000 cicadas (even if your technology is not so good, you can still produce about 60,000 cicadas).

The eggs are placed under the tree and hatched naturally

In 2017, the price of each golden cicada in our market was 0.6 yuan, so the income per mu was 48,000 yuan, and the income of 10 mu was more than 480,000 yuan (those with poor technology could earn more than 350,000 yuan). After deducting the three-year investment of 66,000 yuan, the net income was about 410,000 yuan, and the input-output ratio was more than 1:6 times. After three years, if the current price remains unchanged, the annual income can be more than 400,000 yuan, and the input-output ratio is 10-20 times (those with poor technology can also earn more than 8 times).

Young cicadas dug out from under a willow tree

In the second year, 20% of the golden cicadas unearthed can generate an income of 96,000 yuan. After deducting the total investment of 46,000 yuan in the second year, the net profit is 50,000 yuan (about 30,000 yuan for those with poor technology). This means that if the golden cicadas are raised according to the new technology, the cost can be recovered and a profit can be achieved in the second year. After three years, the golden cicada farm will enter a virtuous cycle, and the farm can save seeds and save money.

4. What are the profits and costs of raising cicada monkeys?

The profit per mu is more than 10,000 yuan, calculated based on the market price of 50 yuan per catty. The total income of raising one mu of golden cicada is 15,000 yuan, and the profit return is the total income minus the cost investment, and the net profit is about 13,500 yuan. In general, the profit of raising one mu of golden cicada is very hot, and the profit margin is still huge. Golden cicada is a wild insect. As its nutritional value and medicinal value are further developed, the market demand for golden cicada is also increasing.
