Pandemic coronavirus and subsequent rigor has led many citizens to think hard about the future life. If the first pandemic will go a second and third that, and to sit in the four walls, making a digital pass for the trip to the store? In these conditions, will start a mass Exodus of city dwellers to the village.
whatever Twardowski: “the Earth in length and in width around its own planted bubacco one – and that’s your…” And given the power of the Internet can be lying on the stove to be in the midst of all planetary events and work on udalenke.
you are No masks, gloves, flying overhead drones, the inspection regime of self-isolation.
and Russia is a huge country, there is always area in which your desire to get a new “residence” will coincide with your opportunities and Finance.
For those who have decided once and for all to say goodbye to the fussy city life, “MK” gives experienced advice. Who has equipped his farm and now lost the way to the grocery store.
how to start citizen if he decided to return “to the roots”, seriously and permanently settle in the village? Those who many years ago made a choice, say that in the first year some unknown force pushes them to acquire animals. Otherwise, what is village life, if the compound is not cocks crow and cows Moo? But experienced farmers suggest not to “throw the head in the hole”, to balance their power.
the Average cost per cow ranges from 100 thousand to 120 thousand roubles, – tells the head of the Association of peasant (farmer) farms and agricultural cooperatives Novgorod region Ivan Piraeus. The calf can be bought for 30 thousand There are expensive premium cattle, but to buy a good cow is hard: as they say, this cow is needed most.
Better to take netela (never teleplaza cow) and myself to grow. But all will require about two years: a year to “covered”, and another nine months to make a calf. After the first calving can be difficult to razdobit: a couple of months for her to care for like a child.
we Need a dry ventilated barn with litter of straw. There are a lot of subtleties in the feeding, maintenance and veterinary support. A cow cannot be fed just potatoes or, worse, waste. Than its feed – and this will milk.
Lots of hay, feed – normal cow food. The day the cow should eat a minimum of 1 kg of feed, but preferably 3 kg. Per day she can eat 15-20 kg roughage. You can add vegetables, bread. Necessarily clean water.
total power can be meet the $ 100 for one day.
a Healthy cow produces 15 to 20 liters of milk a day. To be milked and by hand. But now I use milking machines. The simple costs about 20 thousand rubles.
By and large, to cope with the cow may be people who are trained from childhood to agriculture. And to come out of the city, to take the cow to and from work – is that one in a hundred citizens will be able.
With pig, said Ivan Piraeus, it is much easier. If the cow every day gives a product, the pig as a money box: it invested, and some time later paid back with “interest.” Feed it easily – it is enough to waste.
If we consider it as an investment, then 25-30% of the pig you can earn. Sam pig is 5-6 thousand rubles. To it you need a yard, but the drinker. Initially, however, piggy need to go to stronger: to feed milk (about two liters per day – a total of 50-60 rubles.), to give the vitamins (like another $ 100). The pig growing for about a year – then get a good, fat pig.
But the most simple and best for beginners peasant a biography of citizens to have a broiler (fast growing meat breed of chicken). The chicken is 60-70 rubles, it grows 45-50 days – up to 2-2,5 kg. after six month you can get fresh organic product.
City residents just to cope with 7-10 broilers. To lose as a result of any illness and morow, still need to try. Room for broiler needs small: the cell is 1 m by 1.2 m is placed 10 hens or broilers. To feed you can feed them enough 90-100 grams per day. Feeders and waterers are about 3-5 thousand
For ducks and geese need water nearby. Very birds and their maintenance cost is inexpensive. They get sick less, but produce more offspring. Duck expensive, diet the bird. If the chicken costs 150 rubles, duck twice as expensive – 300 rubles. And the food unpretentious: it requires less feed, she and the grass nibble.
so, who “unknown force” is pushing to make his farm animals, choose where to start. Best of all – small. As you know, Moscow is also not built.
