With the improvement of people's living standards, the attention to food safety and green ecology is also increasing. As a green food rich in protein, low fat and high nutrition, grasshopper is gradually favored by the market. The technology of greenhouse grasshopper breeding not only improves the yield and quality of grasshoppers, but also opens up a new way for farmers to get rich. This article will introduce in detail the technical points and precautions of grasshopper farming in greenhouses to help you grasp the secret of this green wealth.
1. Grasshopper breeding technology in greenhouses
Site selection and construction.
Choose a place with flat terrain and ventilation to build a greenhouse. The specifications of the greenhouse are generally 10 meters long, 5 meters wide and 2 meters high. The floor in the shed needs to be leveled and laid with a layer of fine sand. Ventilation openings are set around the shed to facilitate the adjustment of temperature and humidity in the shed.
Grasshopper species selection.
Choose grasshopper species with strong adaptability, fast growth and high yield, such as East Asian flying locust.
2. Feeding management
1) Feed preparation: grasshoppers are mainly plant-based feed, such as corn, wheat, sorghum, etc. In the process of rearing, minerals and vitamins need to be added appropriately according to the growth stage and nutritional needs of grasshoppers.
2) Feeding density: reasonably control the feeding density, generally 500-600 per square meter. Too high a density can affect the growth and spawning of grasshoppers.
3) Feeding environment: keep the temperature in the shed at 25-30, and the humidity at 60%-70%. Clean up faeces and food debris regularly to maintain environmental hygiene.
Pest and disease control.
1) Preventive measures: strengthen feeding management and improve the disease resistance of grasshoppers. Disinfect the shed regularly to reduce the breeding of pathogenic bacteria.
2) *Method: Once pests and diseases are found, measures should be taken in time**. Biological control methods, such as the introduction of natural enemies, can be used for biological control;Chemical control methods can be controlled by low-toxicity and high-efficiency pesticides. However, it is necessary to control the dosage and frequency of use to avoid damage to the environment and grasshoppers.
3. Precautions
Grasp the market dynamics: in the process of breeding, we should pay close attention to the market dynamics, understand the market demand and the best trend, so as to adjust the breeding strategy in time.
Reasonable planning of breeding scale: according to their own conditions and market conditions reasonable planning of breeding scale, to avoid blind expansion of the scale leads to increased management difficulties and economic losses.
Technology update and learning Xi: continue to learn and Xi and master new technologies and new methods to improve the efficiency and quality of aquaculture. Attend relevant training or consult a professional for more information and guidance.
Policy support and support: pay attention to relevant policy support and support measures and actively apply for financial subsidies and technical support to improve breeding efficiency and reduce risks.
Brand building and marketing strategy: focus on brand building and marketing strategy formulation, win consumer trust and market recognition through high-quality products and services, and improve product added value and market competitiveness.
Fourth, summary and outlook
Greenhouse grasshopper farming technology provides a new way for farmers to get rich, and also meets consumers' demand for green ecological food. On the basis of mastering the technical points and precautions, through scientific management and continuous innovation, it will help to improve the efficiency and quality of breeding and contribute to the development of green ecological agriculture. Looking forward to the future, with the continuous progress of science and technology and the continuous change of market demand, the technology of greenhouse grasshopper breeding will continue to improve and develop, bringing more people the opportunity of green wealth
