Sheep & Rams as give way to larger farm smaller farms to make them to come back, not only for crops but for raising animals as well. Small-acreage farms can provide suitable space for profitably raising sheep. Profitability can be challenging, but with productive sheep and close control of expenses, a profit is possible. Sheep produce income from the sale of meat, wool and milk.
The highest-quality meat is produced from lambs, young sheep under one year of age. Most sheep are sheared once per year to produce wool
Spring and Fall Lambing Seasons
Successful marketing of sheep products is critical for a profitable sheep operation and timing is a critical factor. The price for lamb is often higher in the spring than during other times of the year. Some sheep producers schedule fall lambing to produce market lambs by spring.
However, only certain breeds of sheep such as Dorset, Rambouillet and Polypay, lamb during the fall. Most breeds give birth to lambs during the late winter or early spring, producing market lambs for summer or fall sales. Familiarity with consumer buying habits in your area will help determine the best timing for lamb production.
The Profitability of Twins
Ewes normally give birth to one to three lambs per year. Most ewes successfully raise two lambs. Twins provide a larger profit than single lambs. The ability to produce twins rather than single lambs is partially inherited.
Ewes who are a twin or triplet tend to produce more than one lamb. Careful selection of breeding ewes and excellent care of the young animals is necessary for a profit.
Sales and Marketing Plan
It is essential to have a marketing plan. Sheep producers sell sheep by auction or directly to slaughterhouses, restaurants or retail outlets. Some producers sell lamb at farmer’s markets. Sheep producers raising purebred sheep sell breeding stock to other producers.
Foot trimming, shearing, ear tagging, tail docking and other management practices require skilled labor.
Feed and Suitable Pasture for Grazing
Feed is one of the largest expenses for a sheep-raising operation. Pasture and hay provide most of the feed for the ruminant animals. Small acreage doesn’t allow the production of large amounts of feed. For a profit, it is necessary to find inexpensive sources of good-quality hay or suitable pasture for grazing.
Protection from Predators
Sheep require protection from predators. Coyotes and stray dogs kill unprotected sheep. Guard dogs, electric fences and close supervision help keep sheep safe. A sound healthcare program with necessary vaccinations keeps the sheep healthy.

3  Forum / Business / Ostrich Farming is lucrative on: 30-04-2021 07:32 PM
How to Start Ostrich Farming in Nigeria with Minimal Capital.

Ostrich Farming in Nigeria: Ostrich farming has become really lucrative in Nigeria, but many people are still oblivious of this new development. Although not really popular it is very very lucrative, serves energy and resources more than cattle rearing. Eat low compared to cattle with their large feeding capacity and weight more kg compared to cattle and live longer if not killed prematurely.
The ostrich or common ostrich (Struthio camelus) is either one or two species of large flightless birds native to Africa, the only living member(s) of the genus Struthio, which is in the ratite family. In 2014, the Somali ostrich (Struthio molybdophanes) was recognized as a distinct species. It can live longer than a cow at a rate of 30 to 40 years.

Benefits Of Ostrich Farming:

I’m sure you didn’t know this, though ostrich looks scary with its long neck and frightening body, the horrible sound it makes through its stomach but rearing it could actually be fun with loads of great benefits;

1. Egg: Ostrich produce eggs that hatch into young troublesome ostrich that scare little children. The eggs could be sold to potential buyers or allowed to hatch.

2. Skin: The ostrich’s skin is far more valuable than the more popular cattle skin. In the 18th century; ostriches were nearly brought to extinction by hunting because their feathers were very fashionable in women’s clothing. But by the mid-19th century, people started farming ostriches. This allowed farmers to simply pluck the feathers from their domesticated birds without having to kill them.

3. Fat: Ostrich fat is very nutritious for the body, it has low cholesterol and low fat, provides rich fats and oil and is a good treatment for the skin.

Guides For Effective Ostrich Farming

Determine which ostrich products to sell in order to produce revenue from the farm. Ostrich meat and ostrich hide are two common sources of revenue. The eggs and feathers of ostriches can also be sold and do not require the slaughter of the bird.

Locate an area of land that can be used for the ostrich farm. Ostriches require between one and three acres of land in order to run and remain healthy. Build a simple shelter to protect the birds from harsh weather, and construct a fence to prevent the ostriches from escaping.

Provide a sufficient supply of food and water for the ostrich farm. Large birds can drink several gallons of water each day. Ensure that the water is kept fresh. Purchase feed that is specially formulated for ostrich nutrition. Alternately, plant crops and grasses for the ostriches to eat.

Choose a type of ostrich to raise. Red neck, blue neck, and African black ostriches are the three general types of birds. Red neck and blue neck ostriches are often large and aggressive, while African Black Birds are smaller and easier to manage. The African black ostrich is often recommended for first-time farm operators.

Purchase ostriches for the farm. Select from unhatched eggs, young chicks, or adult ostriches. Unhatched eggs and young chicks are relatively inexpensive but require a significant amount of time and expertise to rear properly. Adult ostriches can begin producing new eggs quickly yet are more expensive to purchase initially.
