IntroductionThe yellow mealworm, also known as breadworm, is rich in protein, as well as phosphorus, potassium, iron, sodium, aluminum and other macronutrients and a variety of trace elements. Its nutrient composition tops all kinds of feeds, and it is commonly used to feed chickens, eels, turtles, bullfrogs, fish and so on. Below we will learn about the feeding techniques and benefits of yellow mealworms. Yellow mealworm, also known as breadworm, is rich in protein, as well as phosphorus, potassium, iron, sodium, aluminum and other macronutrients and a variety of trace elements. Its nutrient composition ranks first among all kinds of feeds, and it is commonly used to feed chickens, eels, beetles, bullfrogs, fish and so on. Let's learn about the feeding technology and profit of yellow mealworm. The profit of yellow mealworm farming artificial rearing of yellow mealworm can be said to be micro-profit, 20 square meters of area, investment of 2500 yuan to buy 25 pounds of seed worms. The market price of wheat bran is 2 yuan/catty, and the ratio of insect feeding material to meat is 3:1, and the average yield of 1 kilogram of seed insects is 50 kilograms of commercial insects. The current value of commercial insects is $10/kg. 25 kg of seed insects can produce 1250 kg of commercial insects, excluding feed and seed insects. 25 kg of seed insects in 3 months will yield $2500, which is the income after the first batch of breeding. After the commercial insects are sold, farmers still have a large number of adult insects reproducing continuously, which is a long-term benefit of investment and a considerable profit. Yellow mealworm rearing technology 1.Preparation of equipment can be raised in pots at home, rearing equipment is simple and economical, such as plastic pots, old washbasins, wooden boxes, iron boxes and so on. As long as the container is intact, no leakage, the inner wall is smooth and the insects can not climb out, it can be used. Need another 40 mesh sieve and another 60 mesh sieve. 2. buy seed insects to choose individual vitality, individual neat, brightly colored seed insects, in special pots to feed, feeding amount of ordinary pots size containers in the larvae 0.3-0.6kg. 3. daily feeding put feed, such as corn meal, wheat bran, etc.. , in the pot, while putting larvae and insect species. The feed is about 10-20% of the weight of the insects. After a week of feeding, use a 60-mesh sieve to sift out the insect feces and continue feeding. You can also add some vegetables, fruit peels and other feeds that contain water. During the egg-laying period of adult yellow mealworms, moderate amounts of concentrate feed, multivitamins, melon and fruit peels, vegetable leaves, etc. should be fed. It can be added to the feed to keep the humidity in the basin.4. Spawning period management when spawning, you can put the spawner under the feed and lay eggs on the paper. Generally 3-5 days the egg paper is covered with eggs. At this time to replace the new egg paper, and then remove the egg paper collection, the same day into the pot incubation. It usually takes about 6-9 days to incubate at a temperature of 24-34℃. The newly hatched larvae are very soft, try not to touch them with your hands to avoid injury. Hatched larvae should be grouped together; a high density of larvae will result in a higher survival rate. Usually the larvae 15-20 days, the feed is basically eaten, you can sieve the insect feces for the first time. Insect feces are filtered through a 60-mesh sieve. 3-5 days later, the insect feces will be sifted out once, and at the same time, feed will be fed once, and the amount of feed will be subject to the fact that the insects can eat all of it in 3-5 days. The above is an introduction to the profit and technology of yellow mealworm farming. This method is suitable for small-scale family breeding. Because it can continue to reproduce, the scale will become larger and larger in the later stage, so the more yellow mealworms harvested, the higher the profit.
