CATDOLL : CATDOLL: Is protein worm farming real? (Yellow bone fish farming technology and cost)

1. How many people have been deceived by breeding protein worms?

After all, parasites are bad for the human body. Those companies that earn huge profits by selling seeds say that the production of commercial insects is: 200 kg of 8th-instar larvae, which can be raised for 20 days and can be transformed into at least 100 kg of adults. Then, they calculate the economic benefits for you and paint a tempting prospect. In fact, this is to fool those outsiders who have not yet been involved in breeding.

2. Is it true that protein worms are farmed in Yunnan?

Protein worm farming is a scam.

The yield of commercial mealworms is determined by the number of egg-laying adults, not the number of larvae introduced. Companies that make huge profits by selling seeds say that the yield of commercial mealworms is: 200 kg of 8th-instar larvae are introduced, and after 20 days of feeding, they can hatch into at least 100 kg of adults. Then, they calculate the economic benefits for you and paint a tempting prospect. In fact, this is to fool those laymen who have not yet been involved in breeding. When you introduce them back and raise them for a period of time, you will understand that it is not the case at all.

3. Is the protein worm breeding in Guangzhou’s six-acre rice field reliable?

The protein worm breeding in Guangzhou Liumu Rice Field is good and reliable.

The prospects for protein worm breeding are very broad. It is easy to operate and manage. Breeding will not take up too much time during the day and can be fed at night.

Protein worm exuviae is a high-quality raw material for producing chitosan, which has a wide range of uses in the fields of functional foods, medical supplies, health products, environmental materials, textiles, decomposition film production, etc. In addition, protein worms have extremely high edible and medicinal value and can be directly used as feed for carnivorous animals, with high protein content.

4. What are the prospects and profits of protein worm farming?

Not really. Although the protein worm farming thing on the Internet is real, judging from the difficulty of actual operation, such cooperation is actually more like a scam. Because it spread too quickly and was novel, many people engaged in traditional farming were immediately constrained when they came to this new business. At the same time, many companies that said they wanted to cooperate online often repeatedly made things difficult for the breeders on the issue of promised recycling in the later stage. This is also a difficult point for many breeders.

Breeding protein worms is indeed a popular business in agriculture today. Compared with breeding of snails and earthworms, there is still a lot of demand for protein worms in China. Therefore, if farmers really get into breeding of protein worms, they will not lose all their money like the above two types of breeding.

5. Is it true that protein worms can be farmed?

If you find a good sales channel in advance, it is reliable to breed protein worms. If the path is not opened, there is a certain risk of breeding eggs and white worms. Because this kind of thing is not a product that the public needs. The composition of protein is mainly provided by protein. The main body of the worm contains a lot of water. The breeding of protein worms is a high protein content, mainly sugar and water.

6. Is the official search for protein worm farming true?

Mealworm farming is a scam. The yield of commercial mealworms is determined by the number of egg-laying adults, not by the number of larvae introduced.

Those companies that make huge profits by selling seeds say that the yield of commercial mealworms is: 200 kg of 8th-instar larvae can be introduced, and after 20 days of feeding, at least 100 kg of adults can be hatched. Then, they calculate the economic benefits for you and paint a tempting prospect. In fact, this is to fool those laymen who have not yet been involved in breeding. After introducing the seeds and raising them for a period of time, you will understand that it is not the case at all. First of all, let’s not talk about the factors that affect the local climate conditions of mealworms. Just speaking in general, there are a few questions here:

7. Does the country support the breeding of protein worms?

support

1. Larvae breeding technology

The larval growth period is generally 120-180 days, 90-120 days under suitable temperature and humidity conditions, and an average growth period of 100 days. Generally, the larvae molt 10-15 times. The larvae grow very fast in the early stage, reaching 5-10 mm in length in 2-3 weeks and 50-60 mm in length in 4-5 weeks. In the early stage of larval feeding, the main feed is fine feed, supplemented by green feed, and in the later stage, the main feed is green feed, supplemented by fine feed.

Immature larvae should be fed more green vegetables, which is beneficial to the growth and development of pupae and adults. Some old larvae have poor appetite in the early stage of pupation, so they can be fed with fish meal to promote the same pupation time. During the breeding process, they should be separated and raised in boxes according to the density and growth rate of the insects to avoid killing each other. In summer, when the temperature is high and the air is dry, it is necessary to put in small amounts of leaves, fruits, etc. to ensure the humidity in the breeding basin.

2. Breeding technology of pupae

Protein worms have a stronger habit of cannibalism than mealworms, so the larvae that are about to pupate (inactive, curled up, and with poor skin gloss) need to be picked out and placed in a separate breeding basin; each larva that is about to pupate can also be raised separately to make it pupate faster. The selected pupae can be placed in different pupation boxes sprinkled with 1 cm thick coarse bran according to different ages for pupation. The thickness of the pupae should be 1~2 layers. Too thick will cause the pupae to suffocate and die.

After releasing the pupae, check them every day and remove any dead pupae that have turned black, red or softened at any time to prevent the pupae from being infected with viruses. The suitable temperature for the pupae to emerge is 25-30℃ and the humidity is 65%-75%. When the temperature is above 20℃, they will emerge as adults after 6-7 days. During the emergence process, dead insects, injured insects and eclosion skins should be removed in time. For the emerged adults, they should be transferred to the adult egg-laying box for breeding before the insect body color turns black-brown.

3. Breeding technology of adults

The adult stage is the breeding period of the mealworm. The purpose of raising the adult is to make it lay a large number of eggs. The ratio of female to male adults is 1:1.

The density of adult breeding is 1000-1200/m². The adults begin to lay eggs 6-11 days after emergence. The peak egg-laying period of mealworms is within two months after the pupae emerge as adults. Attention should be paid to strengthening nutrition and management, and feeding 1-2 times a day.

First, evenly spread a layer of bran or mixed feed about 1 cm thick, and then sprinkle wheat bran mixed with chopped vegetables to provide moisture and supplement vitamins. Put it in when you eat it to keep it fresh. Avoid excessive intake to prevent excessive humidity, rotting of vegetables, and damp and moldy bran, which will cause adult insects to become sick and reduce egg laying.

4. Egg breeding technology

Egg white insect eggs are mainly collected using an egg-laying screen. First place paper on the feeding basin, sprinkle a thin layer of bran on the white paper, and then place the egg-laying screen. Adult insects have the habit of laying eggs downwards. When laying eggs, the ovipositor passes through the mesh of the iron gauze and lays the eggs on the paper or in the feed between the paper and the net. The egg-laying paper is generally replaced once every three days. It is best to replace it once a day during the peak egg-laying period or the egg-laying temperature season. The order is to replace the egg-laying paper first, and then add feed.

After the peak egg-laying period of adults, some female adults gradually age and die, and the egg-laying capacity of the remaining female adults also decreases significantly, so they should be eliminated in time to avoid wasting feed, labor and occupying the egg-laying box. When replacing egg-laying paper, the paper collected on the same day should be stacked in the same larval box (incubator) to allow the eggs to hatch naturally in 7 to 10 days.

8. Is it reliable to breed protein worms at home?

If you find a good sales channel in advance, it is reliable to breed protein worms. If the path is not opened to breed eggs, there is a certain risk of white worms.

If you find a good sales channel in advance, it is reliable to breed protein worms. If the path is not opened for breeding eggs, there is a certain risk of breeding white worms. Because this kind of thing is not a product that the general public needs because many people need protein alcohol. For example, people who raise chickens and birds need it, but I think it is easy to lose money if you breed a lot. Because the demand for this kind of thing is not very large
