Chapter 687: . Follow the big brother to learn (3/5)

This auction really opened the eyes of Pharaoh.
The livestock auction that I participated in last time was more official on the whole, with a host, white gloves, and a variety of livestock products.
This time is my own host of their own lot, from ranchers, cowboys, parents and children, etc., from the 70-80-year-old elderly to the 70-year-old children.
The reason why the children appeared at the auction was that some children raised a few lambs and brought the auction. It said that the pasture in the family ’s pasture was not good. He wanted to sell the lambs and buy the lambs for his father. Raise money.
Pharaoh was greatly moved when he saw it. He deliberately filmed it and kept it for little loli to see. What is this realization? The difference between the two children is too big, the children of other people's homes are different from their own bear children.
He photographed several lambs. He didn't know the specific ones. In the end, he went to 8,000 yuan to get the lambs and applauded him. The people around him shook hands with him to congratulate him.
This kind of auction is relatively amateur, but Wang Bo thinks it is better than the official organized auction.
He said that the amateur is the host amateur, in fact, the on-site facilities are very professional. The small auditorium has an area of ​​thousands of square meters, and there are auction venues, livestock sheds and feeding fences. So I know more about the situation and have questions.
The first auction went on for four hours, and at the end everyone was hungry.
Wang Bo thought it was almost over, but Thomas said to him with a smile: "This is just the beginning. Don't underestimate the size of this country auction."
Beginning in the afternoon, more sheep came to the scene, and there were hundreds of agricultural vehicles parked in the parking lot outside the auditorium, which was particularly spectacular.
Wang Bo and Thomas returned after lunch together and saw that there were more mobile feeding fences in the backyard of the small auditorium, which contained various sheep and alpaca.
Seeing him surprised, Thomas laughed: "It's nothing strange. Alpacas are also treated as sheep in the ranch. Are you interested? I remember that the last time you participated in the auction, it was for alpacas, right? "
Wang Bo shook his head and said, "I was interested last time, this time it's fine."
There was a line at the entrance behind the auditorium. A girl registered in front of the computer. An old cowboy next to it checked the information to make sure the information was correct.
Thomas saw that Wang Bo was unfamiliar with such an auction, and introduced him: "According to your Chinese speaking, before the auction, these sheep have already become famous. What kind of sheep do you need and what price do you need? They are ready now. "
Not only sheep, but also sheep-raising equipment and pastures are to participate in the auction.
The auction in the afternoon is more formal than the morning, and the morning is a family file. In the afternoon, everyone will return to practical applications and start to take the capitalist road.
Two girls were publishing brochures, which were very rough, and it was obvious that they were temporarily rushed, because a printer was going out under the auction table.
The morning auction was a little bit noisy. In the afternoon, the situation improved a lot and the order of the auction items appeared.
Wang Bo looked at it in the order of fattening sheep, eliminating ewes, growing ewe, rams, breeding rams, cubs and disabled sheep.
Auctions were held like horses and flowers at the scene. Sheep were constantly dared to enter the feeding fence, and they quickly caught up. The owner bargained.
Because most of these ranchers know in private, and how the sheep knows well in advance, there is no need to falsify the shoot, just what you say.
Thomas asked, "What can you tell from the current auction?"
Wang Bo took a closer look and said, "Well, the most fattened sheep and the least rams participated in the shoot indicate that the sheep breeding industry is still very popular in the local area, and everyone is not ready to sell the breeding sheep and take the initiative."
"and then?"
Wang Bo said: "If anything, the price of pastures this year is relatively high, surpassing the psychological price of the ranchers, and the profit margin is too low. We must reduce the number of sheep for fattening and reduce investment to avoid difficulties."
"Anything else?"
Wang Bo thought about it and shook his head: "Nothing, what else?"
Thomas smiled and said, "You see a lot of things. I didn't expect you, as the mayor, to pay so much attention to animal husbandry. But you can't see enough."
"For example, there are many and diverse sheep breeds at auction, and there are large differences in individual groups, which indicates that the local sheep breeding industry is still in its initial stage. There is no consensus on which sheep is better for breeding."
Wang Bo was stunned, he didn't see that this was his lack of experience, and the other was that he used Chinese thinking to think about it.
In the eyes of the Chinese, eggs cannot be placed in a basket, and so is breeding. Try to raise as many varieties as possible. In case there is a poor market prospect for other varieties, there are other options.
New Zealanders don't think so. The mature market is a unified market. Everyone breeds the same species, so the matching of breeding, treatment, forage equipment and breeding tools is even higher.
"Kurao is a traditional farming and pastoral area, but large-scale sheep farming has risen shortly because the locals are mainly of British and French descent and prefer to eat beef rather than mutton. This time a specialized sheep auction was organized and some ranchers were running in significance."
Thomas laughed: "You may think this is meaningless, but if I am a black heart rancher and I want to be less competitive, then at such auctions, I can find someone to take some low-quality sheep breeds at high prices. Guess if What will happen if I do this? "
Wang Bo sighed: "Everyone thinks that these inferior sheep breeds are the most popular, and then a swarm of bees goes wrong for breeding."
"Correct."
Wang Bo listened to the price. Fattening sheep are usually sold for 50 to 80 pounds, and the price is between 150 and 250 yuan.
Compared to sheep from sunset ranches, the price is simply the price of the Mariana Trench, but Thomas said that the price is 15% higher than last year, which shows how common New Zealand lamb is cheaper.
To be honest, if it wasn't for Thomas' introduction, Wang Bo wouldn't have thought that sheep farming was not very popular on Kurau's side, because New Zealand's sheep is almost the business card of the country's animal husbandry.
New Zealand's animal husbandry is developed and is the economic foundation of the country. The output value of animal husbandry accounts for 80% of the total agricultural output value. The population engaged in animal husbandry also accounts for 80% of the agricultural population. The export of mutton and dairy products ranks first in the world. The export volume of wool is the second in the world, and the output of coarse wool accounts for 40% of the total world output!
He checked the reasons on the Internet and found that Kurau sheep farming is indeed underdeveloped. Here, cattle, deer, chickens and ducks are the main breeders. The reason why the sheep were not raised in the past is that too many sheep were raised in New Zealand. The space is too small.
