wow!...200 hundred acres of water body, thats huge!
you can intergrated farming like ducks with fish

guys, how do you usually market your agri products?
I dont know how to expand my product (salted egg) to the more up market like super market...

its sad cuz here in sabah they prefer the salted egg in the form of non salut tanah liat...they like the clean one...which the process is making the egg to spoil faster than the salutan tanah liat method...

the extreme weather also causing my ducks to die...luckily only 3 this month out of 2000 ducks...

also I wanted to ask if any of you guys actuaklly received any help from the ministry of agriculture...what kind of help? consultation? moneytary?

hi fellow food manufacturers....how do you guys get around with promoting your products to the big guys like giants? what is the process, what kind of documents is usually needed, who should I talk to etc?

if you not already know I produce salted eggs,,,

anyone knows or heard of filming of egg shell to increase its shelve life?

I am getting headache that my salted egg cant stay fresh for more than 2 weeks and customers had been complaining and return my eggs to be replace and Im facing a loss if this continue.

I saw in alibaba that they sell a machine that wash, dry, and coat it with a thin film that claim it can lengthen the eggs shelves life

but damn expensive man

haizzz...why salted egg in peninsular can be sold in charcoal but here in sabah must be clean one? cleaning the eggs makes it easily contaminated and shorten the shelves life...

Guys, the new budget for 2014 has been announced

Almost 8.4 billion are allocated to the agriculture industries.
That's a lot of money!

So what you guys think? Think my duck farm can benefit from it?

Eh bro you quote me but not saying a thing lol.

Hi guys, it me the salted egg guy again, i wanna ask here familiar with vacuum packaging and high pressure cooker dissinfection?

I plan to sell my Salted Egg, cooked, to restaurants, havent seen people doing it here but china already quite some time.

What is the proper procedure for vacuum packing? Dissinfec first than packing, or pack first then dissinfect in pressure cooker?

Also should I increase my price to cover the cost of packaging or remain the same price as the raw unpacked one?

Another question is, if i were to sell the cooked egg to restaurants n kopitiam, is it advisable to do it like a consignment? Anyone experience in consignment? Is it like, i put 5 trays of eggs this week, no need pay first, the next week i service him, if he sold 3 trays, then I collect money for 3 trays and replenish the egg. Like that ah?

Thanks in advance aa

Thanks for sharing

Operating cost definitely higher than unpacked, raw salted egg, but since my operating cost is lower than my competitors, I can still earn by maintaining my price, my competitors will not be able to copy my way because their operating cost is highet then mine, as I got cheap source for my feed.

Thanks for sharing ging

Kopitiam i mean like those selling economy rice(tho not really economy here, you know I know lah)
The reason i want to do consignment is because I dont want to stop my supplies to my customers, meaning I dont want other competitors have chance to jump my que when my customers run out of supplies, been there, like when i ask my regular if they want eggs, they say ahhhh bought already from other supplier.

Plus i can do consignment is because by doing high temperature dissinfection n vacuum packaging, my eggs last much longer, 180 days as the internet says, i dont know havent experiment yet, plus its cooked so its save them gas money and time, so i can supply large stock for my customers, so they wont run out of stocks before my next visit.

I dont think its gonna work, its perishable, fragile, n nothing special about Salted egg... yes i know there are people selling rock as pet...

guys, any one of you here had apply grants from the government?

Guys, when selling your products, hoe do you approach them?

"Hi boss, want to buy my product ah?"

Fence ur farm, rear dogs, my dogs got poisoned
Install lightings, spotchecks at night once in a while.

But i m not so worried bout thefy, how much can they steal anyway, for me, I'm more worried bout sabotage from peopl who r jejealous of our success. Like me I'm a duck farmer, if some one poisoned my water source alll my ducks will die
