CATTLE RAISING IN BOHOL

CATTLE RAISING was always on my bucket list. I don't know why but I started dreaming to have my own barn or cattle shed when I was reading romance novels set in Texas where cattle and horses were abundant.

Red barns and green pastures have always been a perfect combination. After searching for hours about the design, please look at the pictures. My, my, they're just perfect!




Ang plano naming mag-asawa is to plant Pakchong first bago bumili ng mga cattles for fattening. Mas type kasi namin ang beef cattle kaysa dairy.

Cattle Fattening - according to Hacienda Verde

The program involves raising of newly weaned calves or culled mature heifers until they are ready for slaughter. Requires simple facility and level of management. Seven to twelve months old are separated from those at the fattening or finishing stage. ( Three to five months ). They can be raised by grazing or intensively ( cut and carry feeding ). Raising growing cattle needs little capital. Thus fattening or finishing stage is usually done intensively or in a confinement where animals are kept with minimum movement so that the feeds given to them are utilized to develop their tissues

Kagaya din sa mga librong nababasa ko, we're planning to purchase Brahman cows. Bakit? Kasi recommended siya dito sa bansa natin. Okay lang kasi sa mga Brahman ang climate natin dito sa Pilipinas. 

Target namin sa susunod na taon ay masimulan na namin ang pagtatanim ng mga:


1- SUPER NAPIER/Pakchong

Ang isang hektarya ng Super Napier ay kayang pakainin ang limampong baka sa loob ng labindalawang buwan. So, hindi ka na mamumrublema kung saan kukuha ng mga pagkain para sa alaga mong baka.

2- INDIGOFERA
3- IPIL-IPIL

Raising cattle by grazing the pastures is good but you'll need more lands for a herd of 50 cows. But right now, I will recommend the cut and carry feeding.

Kagaya ko, kung may plano kang mag-venture into cattle fattening, you better plan ahead for your Cattle's Salad Garden... That way, hindi ka mahihirapan sa pagpapalaki, pagpapataba nga mga alaga mong baka..

Happy Farming Everyone!!
