Duck Farming - Importance Of Keeping Farm Records If You Want A Profitable Duck Business

It is worth keeping a record of what happens on your farm

. Not every one finds keeping records easy or useful. It seems a hassle, but it is fun. Normally for a short term and for a small flock you can remember the most important information. But if you are planning to keep ducks for a longer time and if you want to make a business you need to keep track of what happens.

Depending on your type of business you can keep track of:

- how many eggs are laid every day

- how much food you give every day

- the costs you make on feeding and health care

- the investment you have made to build a shed

- which ducks are good breeders and which are not

- how many eggs you incubate and the date you have put them to incubate

- how many eggs hatch

- how many of the hatched ducklings survive and how many die

This is not a complete list, neither a compulsory list. You decide yourself of which information you keep a record, depending on the type of your business.

The information you gather can help you to make management decisions or help you to find a solution to a problem. For example:

- When you know when you put eggs to incubate, you can calculate the date that they will hatch. You can then prepare for caring for the ducklings in time..

- You can estimate when you will need to replace ducks as they reach the end of their productive period.
