DEAR WAZUANS;

I AM THINKING OF DIVESTING TO LIVESTOCK FARMING.

I AM INTERESTED IN PURE SAHIWAL COWS FOR BEEF / MILK.

ANYONE WITH AN IDEA ON WHERE I CAN GET YOUNG SAHIWAL CALFS ON SALE OR OLD SAHIWAL COWS THAT CAN GIVE BIRTH TO ATLEAST ONE CALF BEFORE THEY BECOME OBSOLETE??

WHAT IS THE RATE OF RETURN LET US SAY IF I BUY A CLAF NOW AND GRACE AND SELL AFTER 1 YEAR?

I AM THINKING OF THESE BECAUSE OF LITTLE EXPENSES INCURED - MAYBE JUST BUY LIKE 10 THEN GRACE FOR 12 MONTHS AND THEN SELL.

MY BUDGET IS 10K PER YOUNG CALF - ILE TU IMEACHA KUNYONYA.

ANY IDEAS??
God gave me the power to make wealth ... Blessed the work of my hands & enabled be A SELF MADE BILLIONAIRE ...... TO GOD THE FATHER OF MY LORD JESUS CHRIST; BE THE GLORY NOW & FOREVER MORE!

Perhaps you could start by being polite.

Yelling at us at the top of your voice is not being polite.

Ati 10K for a calf? All the best but I can't see you getting at that price unless we have famine similar to the one we experienced one or two years ago.

Now can the wazua administrator transfer this thread to it's rightful place.

BBI will solve it :)

put up the infrastructure -water, security, staff housing etc etc and stock up on lots of feeds/hay,then wait for the dry period, poach experienced staff not vets and buy cows for as cheap as 5k, de-worm, treat and feed for 3 months then sell at 30-50k.
Alternatively go to njiru and buy from the market farmers need to sell for school fees. Got 2year old heifers @ 12k

visit one chris murungaru

or ADC farms in Kitale.

10k is on the lower side for the best breeds.
