Nowadays, the stories of some talented farmers getting rich are widely known. However, the reporter found in the interview that although successful examples are around, farmers can participate in farming, especially the breeding prospect of the characteristic species giant salamander is full of bumps. Ran Qiyan is a rich and capable person in Wanban Village. In 2009, after learning from the workers that raising giant salamander is promising, he studied the breeding technology of giant salamander for seven months.
Large investment
? I put all my savings of 600,000 into giant salamander breeding, and it will take three years to breed the next generation. ? Ran Qiyan, a villager from Wanban Village, Baishi Town, Zhongxian County, looked depressed. In order to persuade me to sell more than 100 giant salamanders, my wife who works outside the home quarreled with me as soon as she called back. However, I must insist. ?
Ran Qiyan is a rich man in Wanban Village. When she was young, she worked in Shanghai as a small contractor. When she got rich, she went back to town and bought a commercial house. In 2009, after learning from workers that raising giant salamanders is promising, Ran Qiyan went to Hanzhong, Shaanxi Province to study breeding techniques for seven months. In the first month of the following year, Ran Qiyan, who came back from school, studied the breeding technology of giant salamander at home.
But because of the high cost of breeding giant salamander, all the savings at home were lost to giant salamander? Eat? It's gone recently, and the family who supported Ran Qiyan for three years can't stand it anymore. They think that the breeding prospect of giant salamander is not good, and advise him to sell more than 100 giant salamander to other farms at low prices, and stop thinking about studying giant salamander breeding technology. But Ran Qiyan still wants to stick to it for another two or three years. Even if I sell the house in the town, I still want to wait until the day of successful reproduction. ?
It's very risky
? This year, the market of baby fish is relatively low, and our base will not lose money selling baby fish fry, but farmers have encountered sales problems! ? 6543810.30, when the reporter came to the giant salamander breeding base in Chuanzhu Village, longtan town, Youyang County, Yao, the head of the giant salamander breeding co., Ltd., poured a lot of bitter water on the reporter: Although the giant salamanders of the company are not worried about the market, the sales price of each fry has dropped from 500 yuan to/kloc-0.00 yuan, and there is basically no profit margin.
In 2008, Yao invested 500,000 yuan to buy back the patented technology of giant salamander ecological reproduction from an expert in Shanxi Province, invested more than 4 million yuan to build an ecological breeding base of giant salamander near a cave in his hometown, and bought back more than 0/00 giant salamander/kloc for breeding.
? Because of my negligence, I didn't see that some of the fish I bought from my friends got sick, resulting in more than 30 giant salamanders being infected and dying. ? Yao said that fortunately, it was handled in time when it was discovered, so that other giant salamanders were not infected. That negligence cost me more than 6.5438+0 million yuan. ?
But fortunately, the giant salamander was sold at the starting price. ? At the peak, a giant salamander with a length of about 10cm can be sold to 700 yuan, once reaching more than 2,000 yuan, and now it is still in short supply. ? Yao recalled that many farmers made a fortune overnight.
But it didn't last long. In the last two years, the price of giant salamander has been falling continuously. The baby giant salamander bred in Yaoyao Yuan Zhong has dropped from 700 yuan to 100 yuan, and the price of baby giant salamander for farmers has also dropped to several hundred yuan a catty.
Analysis:
The era of shock adjustment and profiteering of giant salamander breeding industry is over.
"Ocean and Fisheries" reporter Huang Zujian/Wen
Farmers in Guangdong Province are still waiting for the giant salamander market to pick up, but its price continues to fall. In some trading markets, the price per catty of finished giant salamander is even lower than 100 yuan. The breeding and sales of giant salamanders were originally a booming industry: eating giant salamanders (also known as giant salamanders) is considered? Animals with high edible value, tender meat, delicious taste, high quality protein, rich amino acids and trace elements, and high nutritional value? . More? Ginseng in water? Its reputation is especially welcomed by the high-end aquatic products consumption market in the southeast coastal areas. Although Guangxi is a national second-class protected aquatic wild animal and wild animal gene protection variety, it is also a key development variety of agricultural industrialization and characteristic agriculture. The continuous maturity of its artificial breeding technology has given birth to a complete industrial chain. The giant salamander of finished products is constantly sold at a surprisingly high price, attracting a large number of farmers to invest in it.
But in recent years, the giant salamander began to walk off the altar.
A paper ban is not the beginning of the price reduction of giant salamanders.
At the end of last year, eight regulations? Brief introduction, simplify official reception. As a high-end aquatic product, giant salamander bears the brunt, so its sales volume has dropped a lot. ? Not many people used to be able to afford it, but now even if you pay, people may not dare to eat? A farmer is so ridiculous? Rules? Influence on giant salamander industry. Giant salamander is not the only high-end aquatic product affected, and the sales and prices of abalone, sea cucumber and other varieties have also declined. On the surface, the restriction on the consumption of Sangong made the price of giant salamander fall. But when it comes to falling, it should have started from the previous year, right? Mr. Jian, a giant salamander farmer in Foshan, said this.
In 2008, the price of giant salamander seedlings was only 100 yuan. Due to the earthquake and financial crisis, the market growth was weak. However, in the following years (2009~20 1 1), the giant salamander industry developed at a high speed, and the giant salamander market became popular all the way. Farmers who enter seedlings at low prices earn a lot of money and have made a large number of millionaires. Mr. Jane began to raise giant salamanders on 20 10. At that time, Mr. Jane, who had just retired from the unit, also went to the province for investigation. He found that the site requirements for giant salamander were low, the labor cost was low and the profit was high, so he decided to raise giant salamander.
The huge profits of giant salamander breeding did not last long, which made the prospect of giant salamander breeding unpredictable. After several years of large-scale culture, the adult giant salamander fish came out of the pond in 20 12 years, and then the price suddenly dropped.
The giant salamander industry in Guangdong has been impacted by giant salamanders from other provinces.
? It is normal to fall, but it falls too fast. ? Ruan Shiling, secretary general of the Guangdong Giant Salamander Breeding Association, said.
In the early days, there were few farmers with breeding technology, and there were naturally few giant salamanders on the market, but the market demand was strong, so the price of giant salamanders remained at a high level. Since 20 10, artificial propagation technology has become more and more mature, and more farmers have seen the potential consumption capacity of the giant salamander market and started to invest. The breeding cycle of giant salamander is usually 3-5 years. After initial stocking and breeding in recent years, the giant salamander gradually matured and reached the peak of finished giant salamander shipment in recent years. A large number of finished giant salamanders are put into the market, and the price drop is the normal law of the market.
Taking the Guangdong market as an example, farmers initially thought that the price of giant salamanders would continue to rise, so they hoarded a large number of fry and delayed the listing of some finished giant salamanders, hoping to sell them at a higher price. ? Because of the high price, farmers will press the goods, and the market has demand but no goods? Feng Jianle described the giant salamander market in previous years. While local farmers in the province are hoarding goods, the supply of giant salamanders outside the province is also pouring in. The consumption of giant salamander in Guangdong Province ranks first in China, so farmers outside Guangdong Province naturally take a fancy to this huge market. Ruan Shiling introduced that the current stock of adult giant salamanders in Guangdong is about 6.5438+0.3 million, and the number of adult giant salamanders entering Guangdong every year is between 500,000 and 600,000. This amount accounts for more than 90% of the consumption of giant salamander in Guangdong Province.
? The problem is that these sources are illegal. ? Industry insiders told reporters. In Guangdong, aquatic wildlife management needs three certificates: aquatic wildlife domestication and breeding license, aquatic wildlife transportation license and aquatic wildlife management and utilization license. Therefore, products from other provinces need these three certificates to enter the Guangdong market. What the reporter learned from Guangdong Ocean and Fisheries Bureau is that at present, Guangdong Province has not approved the application of giant salamander-related enterprises to enter Guangdong to conduct business. In other words, a large number of giant salamanders illegally enter Guangdong Province for sale every year. Speaking of the illegally sold giant salamander, Feng Jianle, vice president, seems a little helpless. In the past, Guangdong native fish (giant salamander) could account for 20%. Fish from other provinces have been sneaking in. Several well-known large farmers can earn 1 ton almost every day. ? A large number of adult giant salamanders illegally entered the province, which completely disrupted the price system of giant salamanders. At present, the price of adult giant salamander produced locally in the market has dropped to 130 yuan ~ 140 yuan/kg, while the price of illegally imported giant salamander from outside the province is about 100 yuan/kg, which can be as low as 80 yuan/kg after the fishmonger keeps the price down.
In addition to violating the rules, the quality of adult giant salamanders entering from outside the province is generally not high. ? There is something wrong with fish from other provinces, because the culture is not standardized, so there are many viruses. I heard that a farmer bought more than 1000 fry from other provinces, and all of them died of illness. ? Feng Jianle told reporters. Although the demand for giant salamanders in the province has increased, the number of adult giant salamanders has increased faster, and the supply exceeds the demand. Coupled with the continuous influx of giant salamanders from outside the province, the whole market has become sluggish. Therefore, in just a few years, the price of giant salamanders will fall by more than 80%. Even faster than the price of eels? .
The era of giant salamander breeding profiteering is over.
The cost account of giant salamander breeding in Guangdong province can be summarized as follows: the farmers with sufficient financial resources are basically large-scale breeding. From the cost point of view, although the energy consumption cost is high (maintaining the living environment of giant salamander needs low temperature, while the temperature in South China is high, so it needs air conditioning to keep low temperature), the feed is cheaper, and the cost can be further reduced after large-scale breeding. ? The culture cost of each adult fish is about 150 yuan ~ 160 yuan, only about 170 yuan ~ 180 yuan. Considering that the price of imported fry was in 800 yuan ~ 1200 yuan/fish in previous years, if the market price rises to 250 ~ 300 yuan/kg, it can still be profitable. So some farmers simply don't sell now, just wait. ? Feng Jianle said.
It is understood that the cost of giant salamander breeding has not changed much, and the price has been falling. At present, the price is lower than the average breeding cost. Even if the market is large enough, farmers will inevitably lose blood if they sell it. But the market has not returned to the period of four figures per catty. The era of giant salamander breeding profiteering and barbaric growth is over.
Giant salamander has always appeared in the market as a typical high-grade aquatic product and precious food. Is it possible for the giant salamander to increase other forms of resource utilization after the price plummets? He Xinliang, a farmer of Guangzhou Huabao Rare Aquaculture Co., Ltd., believes that for ordinary consumers, giant salamander is not a conventional consumption variety despite its low price. Ordinary people don't accept this kind of fish as ordinary consumer goods and don't recognize this kind of consumption. After all, this variety is relatively small. If it is not sold to restaurants, the cost of making giant salamanders into refined products will be high. At present, there is no such case in the province. ? According to He Xinliang, after the consumption of giant salamanders declined, the amount of fish used for viewing and popular science education increased. However, compared with the hundreds of thousands of python of Warburg Company, this increment is really pitiful. ;
