Donkey business

Donkey business

In a place like Kyuso, if one asks you to choose between rearing beef animals and keeping donkeys, please take the donkeys. For the few days I have been in Kyuso, I have seen the importance of donkeys. My analysis is as follows:

Rearing beef cattle

Expenses:_ hay @ at kshs 150 per week,

                  :_ water @ kshs 20 per 20 litres per day,

                  :_ vertinary services kshs 800 per year,

                  :_ labour kshs 30 per day.

Revenue:_ sell it at kshs 50,000 at the end of the year.

Profits= 50,000 less ( expenses )

             = 50,000 _ (7800+7300+10950+800)

            = kshs 23150

Keeping donkey

Expenses are far minimal because it will only require vertinary services which amounts to kshs 1000 per annum. 

Income/revenue

A donkey carries 100 litres of water which costs kshs 100 and can take a minimum of 5 trips a day.

Assume it only works for five days a week.

Profits = revenue less expenses

             =(500*5*12) _ 1000

             =130,000 – 1000

             =kshs 129,000

The assumption is for one bull and a donkey.
