Cost-benefit analysis of the cultured adult large yellow croaker in Ningde City

Based on survey of seven large yellow croaker farmers in Ningde of Fujian Province,the paper analyzed the cost structure and the cost-benefit level of the cultured adult large yellow croaker.The research results are:(1) Feed,labor and fry costs,the total of three items amounts to about ninety-five percent of the total cost;(2)To different farmers,the discrepancies in unit cost and cost composition are very obvious;(3)Scale cultivation has no advantage in unit cost,however,large-scale company breeding has obvious superiority in breeding benefit;(4)Profit rate on costs floats in a small range,and breeding benefit of the whole industry tends to be stable.Finally,in view of the research results,this paper puts forward the following three suggestions:(1)The government should develop and further promote the artificial feeds to reduce the farming cost with scientific feeding;(2)Economic cooperation organization of medium-scale and small-scale farmers should be established to unify sales of the products and enhance the development strength of the market;(3)The government should take more actions to support the leading enterprise,so as to promote the industrialization development of cultured adult large yellow croaker.
