Business / Cow Business In Nigeria, What You Need To Know by richesismine2: 1:06pm On Jul 05
A few things you need to know about Cow business in Nigeria
So many activities are involved in the cow business, ranging from cow rearing, milk production, selling cow meat, butchering Cows, buying and selling live Cows, etc. Our article will centre on cow rearing and buying and selling Cows for consumption. Starting a cow business could be daunting for a new entrepreneur. 

The entrepreneur must study and know what it entails before starting the Business; not all cow species are profitable, and if one fails to know this part, it will be a bit difficult to succeed.

Selecting the right species of Cow you intend to buy and sell is very important, along with proper medication for the Cow's growth. Then again, climate change or weather change could affect the cow business and may lead to loss when there is no adequate monitoring from your side. Getting the time to monitor the colour of your Cow's faeces or dung, which passes through the Cow's anus, will help to decipher when the Cow is sick and when the veterinary doctor should be contacted for proper treatment. Also, the type of food given to your Cow should be checked properly to know if it suits the body system so that it may not affect their health negatively. However, this article has itemized other vital things you need to know about the Cow business if you are ready to venture into it.



Below are a few things to know about the Cow business in Nigeria.




What Cow is Best for Business?



Various dairy cows in Nigeria include Red Bororo, Ndama, Rahaji, Muturu, Bokolo, Abore, Bunaji, etc., mostly reared in Nigeria's tropical and subtropical regions. However, not all Cows mentioned above are good and lucrative for Business. The ones below are mainly good for Business.


Abore:


This type of Cow, called Abore, is deep Brown. They are also gigantic, and if reared properly, they are highly lucrative in Business. Please note that not all cows that are deep Brown are called Abore. The Abore cow horns are usually gigantic.


Bunaji:


Bunaji is the native name of this type of Cow. This type of Cow is extremely big and gigantic. They do not decrease in size easily because their species and nature are big when fed properly. The horns of Bunaji are medium size. This cow species turns out to be a good business when it is being sold out, and the profit made from this cow business is mouth-watering.


Bokolo:


Bokolo is the native name of this species of Cow. This particular Cow is very big in colour and is purely white. Most of the time, the male ones are preferable. Its horns are not big but small; before anyone can identify this type of Cow, you have to be well-grounded in the cow business.


How much does a cow cost in Nigeria?



Cows are very expensive, which makes the Business very difficult for new entrepreneurs because as a newly entrepreneur in the Business when you tell the customer the price of a cow now, which costs over 400k Naira to 1 million Naira, the customer tends to say it is expensive for them because the price of a cow in which the customer must have bought before may not align with the current price now. Getting a big cow for personal or domestic uses can be expensive, and its price can be from 700k and above, but for a medium-sized cow, the price ranges from 400k-500k Naira. These prices affect the buyer more because they can't buy above their budget, and this could make the customer either go above their budget by adding extra cash or the customer may not buy at all.

How long does it take a cow to mature in Nigeria?

However, it takes great resources such as time, energy, food, and water to rear a Cow. Most little Calf should not be taken away from the mother cow until the Calf is one year old. The reason is that the Calf should undergo proper breastfeeding for at least one year for its bones, muscles, and body to be strong. When a baby calf is taken away from its mother at a tender age, it does not get the proper nutrients to build and nourish its body for proper growth. When a calf matures into a cow after one year, it can be taken away to feed on hay, leaves, and water in a conducive environment with fresh air. Adequate food should be given to a cow, such as hay leaves and water, and closely monitored on how the cow feed and the faeces it shits out. A cow matures after two years and can be slaughtered for consumption. A cow needs a conducive environment. A conducive environment helps the growth of the Cow, which makes it look healthy, as well as proper feeding. The environment should be Greenish, and Sandy, water should be available for the Cow to drink to avoid dehydration. Proper cow maintenance would not limit the Cow's growth, and the Cow tends to mature on time for consumption. A Cow's maturity depends on the person taking care of the Cow. If the person caring for the Cow does his job properly, the Cow becomes big and ready for sale.


Which type of Cow is profitable to be Reared?


Cow business in Nigeria can be highly profitable and lucrative when done well. Money can be made from every part of a cow, which includes milk, meat, hooves, cheese, etc. Furthermore, some cows are highly lucrative in Business when they are fed properly and maintained. The species of cows are usually big and attractive to anyone who comes across such cows. Abore comes from Jigawa state, which is situated in the northern region, and is circulated to other northern states in Nigeria. Another cow that is profitable in Business is Bunaji; it comes from the white Fulani breed, which is from Northern and Southern Nigeria and the northeastern part of Cameroon, mostly being reared by the Fulani, which is profitable and marketable in Business. Bokolo comes from Sokoto, the northern part of Nigeria. The Sokoto Gudali is rearing it, and after being reared, it is being transported to another northern state in Nigeria for sale. The Bokolo species of Cow is very big and attractive for sale.

How long can a cow be supplied to a particular location?

One thing in the cow business is that distance is never a barrier, though supplying a cow from one location to another could take more time or days due to that distance. Sometimes, the truck transporting these cows would develop mechanical or electrical problems. This Cow could sometimes fall sick or even die on the Road. All this could be channelled to unforeseen risk. That is why it is best for any buyer who wants to purchase a cow or rear a Cow to buy a good species to avoid loss. Getting a good species of Cow might be expensive, but buying it is advisable and better for you to be happy when your Cow arrives at your location. Most cows from the North take two days to arrive at their location in southeast Nigeria. For example, a cow transported from Plateau State to Anambra State takes a full day to arrive in the east. A cow coming from Kano State to Lagos State takes two days before arriving at his destination. In Cow Business, location is crucial, so patience is needed when adventuring into a cow business. But if you are to supply a cow from Plateau state to Kano state, it only takes 6 to 7 hours because it is around the axis of the same northern area. Still, anything that has to do with supplying Calf from the North to the east-west and South must take either one, two, or a maximum of 3 days, depending on the location the Cow is being taken to.


How to start a cow business with no money

Business / Four Marketing Strategies That Would Help Increase Sales. by richesismine2: 7:14pm On Jun 14
Marketing and sales are like-minded because sales have to be involved in anything that has to do with the marketing of any product.

Companies where the two are not set up together often see marketing and sales groups pointing fingers at each other.

Meanwhile, businesses depend on solid cooperation between sales and marketing to be profitable, and this has to begin with a fashionable plan to get everyone involved in sales and marketing within an organization.

However, the four marketing strategies below will help your team work well together and increase revenue.



Four marketing strategies that would help increase sales.
1.Create a compelling story.
Culturally, the marketing task is to create a story. It lets an audience know that a company exists and is offering a service or a product. Stories about a product or a service will resonate more with a hungry audience.

On the other hand, advertisements activate the mindset of individuals to buy a product or obtain a service. However, with digital marketing strategies, story content would produce much more engagement to make sales than it should.

Most people today are not eager to listen to an in-person sales pitch to make a decision, but once they know a product exists, they prefer to do the undercover assignment themselves.

Most speakers today emphasized how customers look for online content to direct them on what to do. Such content will later convey prospects leading to a sale.

1.    Boosts Cholesterol Levels

As a man gets older, his cholesterol values tend to go downhill. The "bad cholesterol," or LDL (low-density lipoprotein) levels in men tend to rise while the "good cholesterol," or HDL (high-density lipoprotein), levels tend to fall. A known risk factor for cardiovascular disease is the combination of high LDL and low HDL.

Excessive cholesterol will eventually build up on the interior lining of blood vessels like the coronary arteries, which supply the heart with its blood supply. A diet low in unsaturated fat is the best approach to lower LDL cholesterol, and exercise is the best way to increase HDL
cholesterol. Read more at this link https://www.validworth.com/5-health-benefits-regular-exercise-men/
