CATDOLL : CATDOLL: The real benefits of raising leeches (the biggest difficulty in leech farming)

1. What are the costs and profits of leech farming?

Leech farming is a high-investment, high-risk industry. Generally speaking, one acre of land can produce about 100,000 to 200,000 leeches. The price of seedlings varies with the market, usually 0.2 yuan per leech. The cost of feed for four months is about 7,000 to 14,000 yuan. The site can be used for about 10 years, and the cost is about 400,000 yuan.

The labor cost is about 20,000 yuan, the cost of changing water is 600 yuan, the cost of medicine is between 300-400 yuan, and the cost of cleaning the site is between 2000-3000 yuan. There are too many uncertainties in leech breeding, and the investment is large and the risk is high. If you are not careful, you will lose everything. Even if you have the best technology, you are still helpless when encountering weather like in 2014.

2. How many harvests can be obtained from leech farming in a year?

1. One leech can reproduce about 40 leeches in a year, and 2,000 leeches can reproduce up to 80,000 leeches. However, the survival rate of leeches is not high, about 20%.

2. Therefore, the number of surviving leeches is about 15,000, and their weight is about 800 kilograms. After processing them into dry products, only 100 kilograms are left. The price of dried leeches on the market is about 150 yuan per kilogram. The income of one acre of leeches is about 15,000 yuan. Excluding the required costs, the net profit of one acre of leeches is about 10,000 yuan.

3. How much profit can you make from raising leeches per acre?

20,000 yuan.

If you have one mu of land and plant 5,000 leeches, the annual output value will be more than 913,000 yuan in gross income, and the net profit will be about 100,000 yuan after deducting the cost of facilities and feed. If you adopt high-density and intensive production, plant 1,000 leeches in 5 square meters, the annual output value can reach more than 25,000 yuan, and the profit of leech farming will be more than 20,000 yuan after deducting the cost of seedlings, feed, facilities, etc.

4. How much leeches can be produced per acre of land?

One acre can produce about 80-100 kilograms of leeches

Excluding the cost, one acre of leech cultivation can generate a profit of about 8,000 yuan. The breeding cost includes the introduction of seedlings, pond rent, feed, tools and equipment, which is about 5,700 yuan. One acre can produce about 80-100 kilograms of leeches. The current market price is 150 yuan/kilogram. Based on the output of 90 kilograms of leeches, a profit of 13,500 yuan can be obtained. After deducting the breeding cost, the profit per acre is about 8,000 yuan.

5. How long does it take to raise leeches to achieve cost and profit?

If one mu of land is used to breed 100 catties of leeches for a year, the cost of the site and seedlings is 15,000 yuan, and the yield per mu is about 500 catties. On average, 6 catties of fresh leeches can be dried into 1 catties of dried leeches. The price of fresh leeches is about 70 yuan per catties, and the profit after deducting the cost is about 20,000 yuan. The price of dried leeches is 500 yuan per catties, and the profit from selling dried leeches is about 26,000 yuan.

Calculation of the cost and profit of raising leeches:

1. Cost. The cost of planting leeches of about 100 kilograms per mu is about 15,000 yuan.

2. Profit. The yield per mu is about 500 catties, and the price of fresh leeches is about 70 yuan per catty. On average, 6 catties of fresh leeches can be air-dried into 1 catty of dry leeches, so the price of air-dried leeches is relatively high, which is about several times that of fresh leeches. The price of dried leeches on the market varies, and is generally around 500 yuan per catty. Therefore, selling fresh leeches can bring in 35,000 yuan, and after deducting the cost of 15,000 yuan, the profit is about 20,000 yuan. If air-dried leeches are sold, the yield per mu is about 83 catties, and the output value is about 41,600 yuan. After deducting the cost of 15,000 yuan, the profit is about 26,000 yuan.

6. What is the profit from raising leeches in a one-acre greenhouse?

20,000 yuan.

If you have one mu of land and plant 5,000 leeches, the annual output value will be more than 913,000 yuan in gross income, and the net profit will be about 100,000 yuan after deducting the cost of facilities and feed. If you adopt high-density and intensive production, plant 1,000 leeches in 5 square meters, the annual output value can reach more than 25,000 yuan, and the profit of leech farming will be more than 20,000 yuan after deducting the cost of seedlings, feed, facilities, etc.

7. What are the costs and benefits of artificially raising leeches?

One acre of land can breed about 100,000 to 200,000 leeches, usually at 0.2 yuan per leech, with an approximate cost of 20,000 to 30,000 yuan. According to the normal survival rate, the average yield per acre is about 500 catties (250 kilograms), the average price of leeches is about 600 yuan per kilogram, and the profit is about 150,000 yuan.

8. How much profit can one acre of leech farming make in a greenhouse?

Under normal breeding conditions, one leech can reproduce about 40 leeches a year, and 2,000 leeches in water quality will have 80,000 leeches. However, the survival rate of water quality is very low, and generally 20% is considered good.

Therefore, the number of leeches that survive is about 15,000, which is converted into a weight of about 800 kilograms, and only 100 kilograms if processed into dried products. The current price of dried leeches is about 150 yuan, so the gross income of one acre of leeches is 15,000 yuan. Excluding the breeding costs, the net profit of one acre of leeches can reach nearly 10,000 yuan.
