Frog is our common amphibian, with about 190 species, among which Rana nigromaculata is widely distributed and has a large number, followed by Rana zewalskii, Rana chensinensis and Rana tigris.

Most of the commonly farmed frogs are black-spotted frogs. Because they feed on live bait, it is necessary to cultivate fly maggots, Tenebrio molitor and earthworms for feeding in traditional farming. In recent years, frogs are our common amphibians, with about 190 species, among which black-spotted frogs are widely distributed and have a large number, followed by Ze frogs, Qian frogs and Tiger mosquito frogs.

Generally, most of the frogs are black-spotted frogs. Because they eat live bait, fly maggots, Tenebrio molitor, earthworms, etc. need to be cultivated for feeding in traditional breeding. In recent years, with the maturity of frog breeding technology, the benefits of frog breeding have been increasing.

So what is the cost of breeding frogs in 20 19? Is the profit high? Is there any breeding prospect?

First, the cost of frog breeding

In terms of cost, the factors that need to be considered are labor cost, site construction, frog seedlings, the cost of raising earthworm Tenebrio molitor, the cost of attracting insects, and daily water and electricity charges.

Calculate the cost of frog breeding by building an ecological breeding garden of about 5 mu;

1, the cost of renting 5 mu of land is calculated according to the cultivated land area, and the cost of renting 5 mu of land is 4,000 yuan per mu of 800 yuan.

2, 5 acres of construction costs, including pool costs, ecological forest construction costs * * * 6000 yuan.

3, maggot pond, earthworm pond construction cost 5000 yuan.

4. The cost of breeding frogs is about 60 pairs per mu, and 350 pairs of breeding frogs can be bred. The cost of breeding frogs is 7,000 yuan per pair of 20 yuan.

5. Employ 3 people at a cost of18,000 yuan.

6. Other miscellaneous expenses are 6000 yuan.

The total expenditure of frog breeding cost in the first year is 46,000 yuan, so there is no need to invest in frog seedlings every year, which will also reduce the breeding cost and improve the breeding profit.

The total cost of investment in the first year is about 1 10,000 yuan/mu, and the cost of facilities, site construction and frog seedlings invested in the second and third years is not needed. The feed cost of fly maggots and earthworms, as well as the cost of electricity, light bulbs, pumps for changing water and labor costs invested in attracting insects are about 8,000 yuan per year.

According to the three-year cycle, the average annual investment is about 8800 yuan/mu.

Second, the frog breeding profit

The input cost of frog breeding is not high either. According to the three-year calculation, the input cost of one mu of land for breeding frogs is about 1 10,000 to10.5 million yuan.

If you add some feed in the later period and some labor costs, the input of an acre is about 20,000 to 30,000 yuan, and the net profit per acre is about 36,000 yuan MINUS the cost, which is about 20,000 to 25,000 yuan per acre every year. The profit is very high.

Third, the breeding prospects of frogs

With the rapid expansion of frog breeding industry, the price of frogs fluctuates with the changes of seasons and market conditions.

Frog is an animal that combines food, health care products and medicine. It is delicious and nutritious. It has always been a delicious food for urban and rural residents in China. Developing frog breeding can not only meet people's consumption needs, but also promote the recovery of natural wild resources. Therefore, breeding frogs has certain market and industry prospects.

To sum up, it is the real profit of frog breeding. At present, frog breeding can be fed with artificial compound feed in the whole process, and the breeding output has been rising all the way, with the yield per mu as high as 1500-2500 kg, and the frog breeding industry has expanded rapidly.

Frogs are protected animals, and friends who want to breed them can only breed and sell them after they have obtained the license for domestication of wild animals from the forestry department.
