Getting rich from the buffalo

Buffalo cattle species, specialized herbivores. Buffalo farmers can take advantage of pull and source our organic fertilizer in agriculture. Also, buffalo meat specialties increasingly popular and common in the market. Average annual buffalo born once. After about three years of life, the buffalo will mature and start breeding period. As livestock species domesticated for thousands of years in Vietnam to Buffalo with high adaptation to climate models and good resilience, less disease. Buffalo was very gentle animals and close to every citizen of Vietnam. The value of each buffalo mature relatively large market. So if buffalo at the farm scale of a few dozen could get rich quick.

      Realising the potential and advantages of local, Vi Xuyen district has built development plan regional livestock sector conditional to intensive buffalo high quality goods. Regarding the structure above, the rate of female breeding herd accounts for over 50% of the herd, which reached 30% standard sow, per every one thousand children born 500 Is there enough water buffalo bulls for breeding standards and mating; crossbreeding overcome inbreeding. With that, the district also enabling people concessional loans, regional planning development associated with buffalo grass; good selection of seed; prevention and control of disease ... So far, the buffalo herd of 30 649 children districts, reaching 87.8% compared to the planned target by 2010, up 22% compared with 2005. Farmers in the province have strong invest, expand the scale in the form of the farm; Livestock movement of bovine hours thrive, attracting many cadres, Party members and families involved. The result, some buffalo breeding population of over 1,200 hours in children. With that, the district also plans to develop a specific condition based buffalo, the actual situation of each region and commune. For Ethics commune, Trung Thanh, Vietnam Lam ... are communes located in key regions for cargo buffalo breeding of districts, communes Per than 2,220 children in 2008 has set out targets to the year 2010 will see the buffalo herd, cows on 10,000 children, mainly buffaloes. In 2008, to make the people, Vi Xuyen commune has directed the review and submit a list of households without access to loans to buy buffalo buffalo farming. Assigned to the district branch of Agricultural Bank, the Social Policy in collaboration with the district social and functional departments to settle for 531 households in 13 communes loans, supported by 50% of interest rate buy bovine and continue People deployment for loans to buy cattle in the remaining communes in the following years. As for households, farms ranging in size from 20 buffaloes, cows and older are supported 100% District vaccines to get all 3 vaccine for FMD, anthrax and haemorrhagic septicemia, whereby district buffalo stable development.
       Vi Xuyen district has the advantage of natural conditions, warm climate and high rainfall, with many pastures, cattle husbandry practices long. However, the development of districts goods buffalo far not really commensurate with potential; not formed a buffalo breeding areas dramatically goods. Buffalo spread in the communes; scale farming households from 15-20 or more children less; prevention and control of disease in cattle population was not focused. The limitations in the development process is triggered buffalo ever, people consider buffalo as agricultural tools, household raising only one or two children is enough for production; Buffalo meat is often lower prices should not encourage people to develop buffalo.
                 To achieve the goal of achieving by 2010 the buffalo herd was 33,800 children, requires Vi Xuyen district should have synchronized deployment plan measures; with the recruitment, breeding, district should organize training courses for technical people raising buffalo, grass, how barns Warm in winter; mobilizing people captive breeding stables, barn hygiene, disease prevention for people buffalo to gradually raise awareness and know how to apply scientific and technical progress in raising buffalo goods.
               Livestock breeding buffalo in general and species such as horses graze cattle, goats, sheep, elk, deer, ... is a potential for major economic development in the northern karst capital more difficult but there many grasses and shrubs. However, it should be developed in parallel with the introduction of new high-yielding grasses to grow, study and processing of fine food reserves to ensure stable growth, long term feeding cattle herd grass in Vi Xuyen district, Ha Giang province
