Indeed, few farmers are willing to raise livestock and poultry now, which is mainly related to the massive loss of young farmers. As long as we go to the countryside to have a look, the left-behind elderly and left-behind children have become the main population in the countryside, and they obviously have a very hard time raising livestock and poultry. In the countryside, a few scattered, the old man is ok; But to develop large-scale farming, we need not only technology, but also economic strength and human support, which is obviously not enough.

Farmers, on the other hand, can't produce much economic benefits by raising poultry or livestock in a free range, and they can only barely feed themselves. Such farming is obviously not cost-effective for young farmers, because they have to shoulder the heavy responsibility of family income; However, the development of large-scale aquaculture requires professional skills and technology. If you don't have the expertise and skills in this field, or have obvious defects, you will often end up in a mess. This is a curse that restricts young farmers from developing aquaculture. Therefore, this is not because farmers are rich now and don't develop aquaculture.

In the past, farmers kept poultry or livestock in their small yards as a family sideline. Basically, they raise a pig, a sheep, a cow, or a few chickens, ducks and geese to increase the extra income and supplement of the family economy, while the life of the whole family mainly depends on the fields at home. At that time, farmers all said that "land is the lifeblood of farmers". It can be seen how important land is to farmers, and raising poultry or livestock at home is only a sideline in slack season.

Judging from the income of raising poultry and livestock, we do have high risks and long income cycle, and we don't go out to work or engage in job skills, so our income comes quickly, stably and high. This is the decisive factor. In addition, beautiful countryside is being built in rural areas all over the country, and the management requirements for rural human settlements are quite strict. Doesn't mean you can raise it if you want. You have to apply for relevant licenses in accordance with the regulations in order to realize legal farming. The minimum requirement is that the site selection and environmental protection equipment and facilities of the farm meet the standards before introduction and breeding. However, for young farmers with average technology, the threshold for such breeding is too high now.

We say that the development of large-scale farming can produce economic benefits, and it needs to be effectively connected with the market to achieve the purpose of farming. Young farmers have just entered the society, and they don't have good savings, or they don't invest enough in farming, so they can't reasonably predict the market prospects of farming types and understand the development demand orientation of the industry. These are the biggest disadvantages of developing aquaculture. In comparison, young farmers are now working in cities. As long as they master the job skills of this position in the industry, their income is also considerable, which is by no means lower than the development of aquaculture.

Of course, young farmers develop aquaculture in order to develop their own careers; Although working outside for a long time can make money, it is not a long-term solution. If young farmers who like aquaculture usually learn more about these skills, participate in aquaculture, or go deep into the industry to lay a good foundation for their future development of aquaculture, and then go into battle lightly, they will certainly get good economic benefits.
