From the perspective of the domestic market, in recent years, with the rapid development of the TCM industry, the herbal medicine market has become increasingly prosperous. Moreover, due to people's renewed trust in TCM, there has been a significant development in the research and production of Chinese patent medicines, leading to a situation where valuable herbal medicines are in short supply, causing their market prices to continuously rise. In the early 1980s, the market purchase price for centipedes was only about 0.4 yuan per piece, but now it has risen to 2 yuan, yet supplies remain extremely scarce. The market supply of centipede venom is even more insufficient.
The No. 2 Centipede Breeding Project relies on rural resource advantages [2823.80 -0.84%]. For breeding animal-based herbs like centipedes, if good techniques are mastered, it will be an excellent choice.
Centipedes, as traditional precious herbs in our country, have a long history of medicinal use. They were recognized and utilized by people over 2,000 years ago, with detailed records found in many medical classics such as "Compendium of Materia Medica."
The medicinal value of centipedes bred through the No. 2 Centipede Breeding Project is very high. There are as many as 100 kinds of Chinese herbal prescriptions that include centipedes. Centipedes are important raw materials for over 30 types of Chinese patent medicines, such as Ren Shen Re-Zao Wan, Da Huo Luo Dan, and Qian Zheng San. These medicines exhibit remarkable therapeutic effects in treating diseases such as phlebitis, blood clot blockage, trigeminal neuralgia, anti-cancer detoxification, dispersing lumps, wind-dispelling and sedation, facial paralysis, tetanus, etc. These applications have caused a sharp increase in demand for centipedes. Besides medicinal uses, centipedes can also be made into nourishing foods.
With the progress of societal material civilization, centipedes from the No. 2 Centipede Breeding Project, as both therapeutic and health-preserving fine products, have received increasing attention from people. Products like centipede wine and centipede Fen health supplements have successively appeared on the market. Additionally, with the development of medicine, the role of centipede venom has been widely recognized. Centipede venom is more valuable than gold, costing approximately 150,000 US dollars per kilogram. About 500 grams of venom can be extracted annually from 10,000 centipedes. Therefore, the medicinal value of centipede venom far exceeds that of the centipedes themselves.
Currently, the market supply of centipedes mainly depends on wild capture. However, with the extensive use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, the ecological environment of wild centipedes has been damaged, and the natural population has sharply decreased, resulting in market shortages. Currently, the national production can only meet about 30% of the demand, causing a rapid increase in market prices. Artificial breeding of centipedes has broad prospects for development, and there will be a wave of getting rich through centipede farming across the country.
The economic benefits of raising centipedes through the No. 2 Centipede Breeding Project are significant. While providing society with valuable herbal medicines and benefiting humanity, those who raise centipedes can also achieve high economic returns. As a precious herb, centipedes have a large market demand. Artificial centipede farming is gradually becoming a promising endeavor.
Supported by Huazhong Agricultural University: As a key institution of the national 211 project – Huazhong Agricultural University collaborates with Wuhan Nongke Humin Biological Engineering Co., Ltd. to jointly study and develop scientific farming techniques for centipede breeding aimed at promoting agriculture through science and technology.
Advanced technical advantages: Wuhan Nongke Humin Biological Engineering Co., Ltd., together with several biological experts and professors of bioengineering from Huazhong Agricultural University, has cultivated a new generation of varieties called Humin No. 2 Golden Headed Centipede through multiple years of observation and selection purification techniques using biogenetic improvement engineering. Observations show that this variety is easy to breed, gentle in nature, strong in adaptability, fast-growing, highly reproductive, better in medicinal value, and significantly more economically valuable. It is an ideal investment breeding project for friends in the breeding industry.
Complete breeding facilities: The company leverages its agricultural science advantage and life sciences characteristics, relying on experts and scholars from the Animal Science and Technology College. Focusing on modern bioengineering, special animal breeding, and insect resource development, it integrates research, breeding, teaching, promotion, technical services, production, sales, and import-export trade into a high-tech enterprise. It owns large-scale ecological breeding areas, solar house breeding areas, greenhouse breeding areas, and separate technical training centers, seedling breeding centers, germplasm rooms, incubation rooms, and gene transformation rooms. The foundation is solid, and the system is complete.
Wuhan Nongke Humin Company: Upholding the tradition of diligent reading and hard work, we aim to promote the industrialization of centipede resources with the purpose of scientific farming. We will strive to provide our fellow farmers with higher quality and higher-yielding seedlings, more advanced technology, and more comprehensive services. Let us keep pace with the times and create a brighter future together.
