Chapter 033: Buying cows
Translated by me, edited by Kai
“The cows auctioned here generally fall under three categories Bulls, s to buy, then you can do so here The cows I have tend to be a bit worse than those sold here” Leymann said as he sat down in one of the auction seats
Hearing this, Jiang Hai turned to Robins for an explanation Out of the 3 types, he only knohat a bull is These arepurposes (1) But what are the last two groups?
“Small herds refer to low nu to raise cattle, then they will send them here to be sold Generally these cattle counter are under 100, hence this category, they also can be either bought separately or together Special herds refers to those special cows” Robins explained In America, the us
This breed has no horns, can endure course feeds, and is said to be the world’s best beef cow A es between 500 and 800 kg Gentle nature, daily weight gain of roughly 1kg, nice hwell-received in America Apart from this breed, Brahman, Charolais, Hereford and Piedmontese are also well received in Ah butcher rate Compared to these fine breeds, the cows in China falls miles behind
The most famous in China should be the Luxi cattle, Qinchuan cattle, and Nanyang cattle But these breeds have a very low butcher rate If it can reach 50 ot lucky These cows originally weren’t raised for eating but be used as oxens in the field If you’re talking about strength or attacking power then these breeds completely outclass the one in America and Europe, but if it’s quality and quantity then they lack far behind
The key lies with the near 15 difference Meat quantity from 100 heads in America can match if not surpass 115 heads from China The other key factor is the population density of America The 98 million square kilometers for less than 325 million people, there are tons of land that can be used for ranching, but this is not possible in China
High population level leads to low concentration of ranches Add on the poor breeds and obstructions of fence construction, if prices for beef are still low, then soht about iovernment Those already imported in li, resulting in hard expansion of the industry Currently China much more prefer to raise milk cows for the same reason
“Next up are the bulls” Robins said after a quick introduction Currently the first round of auction is already over In the wake of the auctioneer’s words, the first bull walked up This one is clearly bigger and stronger than the ones Jiang Hai is thinking of
In the ani follows the laws of nature Therefore to be a bull, the first criteria they have toThese bulls put up for auction are all the best of the best Hence their size is way bigger than the norms
This is a charolais weighing in at 1211kg Seeing this strong frame and lioes entle teentle till the end” The auctioneer joked and was received by a round of laughter from the cowboys
What he is talking about is during WWII when the French got defeated by the Ger instead of resisting This was really an aard situation for the allies, but to say this in America is also not a smart idea Because lish colonists Actually there is so Alish never had a period of peace Why is Boston situated in a region called New England? That is because the people here arefun of the French
“Do we need hi Hai asked Robins as he examined the bull quickly
