Rabbit Farming Business Is A Very Profitable Business
money all over the world by raising rabbits for meat. However, to build a successful,
sustainable commercial rabbit farming business, you require sufficient knowledge of
how to efficiently raise the rabbits, good management skills, and a good rabbit
farming business plan. This article will outline how to start a commercial rabbit
farming business, and the rabbit farming business plan – PDF, Word and Excel.
Raising rabbits for meat is a lucrative business, providing income for millions of
people, but there are some essential things you need to do before you venture into
the rabbit farming business. You have to decide on the size of your rabbit farming
business project i.e. the number of rabbits you want to keep; location of the rabbit
farming business e.g. a rabbit farm , and your target market. These choices will be
affected by the amount of capital you have, and the size of your target market. If
you do not have a lot of capital, you can always start small and grow your rabbit
farming business overtime, remember, Rome was not built in a day. You also need
to carry out market research (Who are you going to sell the rabbits to? At what
price?) and write a rabbit farming business plan before you venture into the rabbit
production business.
There are various equipment needed when raising rabbits for meat. The
equipment which you need will depend on the rabbit housing system which you
choose. The rabbit housing systems which are commonly used in commercial
rabbit farming are the cage system and the deep litter system. For the cage
system, you will be keeping the rabbits in cages. You can either keep the cages
indoors or outdoors. On the other hand, the deep litter system is whereby you
keep the rabbits on floors e.g. concrete floors with bedding spread on the floor.
There is also a huge export market for rabbits. As you grow your rabbit farming
business, you will be able to export the rabbit meat to other countries. The
largest importers of rabbit meat include Italy, Belgium, France, United States, United
Kingdom, Germany, the Netherlands and Switzerland.
Rabbits breed and reproduce fast. The pregnancy lasts for only 1 month, and
each doe give birth to an average of 8 kits at a time, and can give birth 9 times a
year. This means that every year 1 doe can give birth to 72 rabbits! This means
that you can easily grow your rabbit farming project over time. Raising rabbits
for meat is very profitable and you can easily recoup your initial cost of
investment.
