What is the market price of snails?

Snails are the general name for edible aquatic animals of the family Snails. There are many varieties, common ones include round snails, field snails, yellow snails, land snails, fragrant snails, etc. The snail meat is rich in nutrients and is known as a beauty food. Containing 10.3% of protein, 1.2% of fat, as well as vitamins, calcium, iron and other essential elements for the human body, snail meat is nutritionally superior to chicken, duck, goose, pig, etc., and inferior to crucian carp, sea cucumber, etc. Snail meat nourishes kidney yin, improves eyesight and clears the brain, enhances muscle elasticity and delicate skin. Field snails are commonly used as meat and are also processed into a series of foods, cooked into a variety of medicinal delicacies, and used to prevent and treat diseases.

At present, naturally grown field snails are far from meeting market demand, while field snail farming has fast growth and high yields. To cultivate field snails, you must first conduct market research. Most of the field snails sold in the market are harvested and sold. To put it simply, they are profit-making without capital. Moreover, they are not the main sellers of field snails, but only sell them as side products. The price of the caught field snails is not very expensive. .

Furthermore, there are more people eating snails in late-night snack bars. But relatively few people eat snails at home. The snails are not clean, and it is troublesome for housewives to deal with them by removing the tail. Even if the seller of snails will help remove the tails, hygiene is a problem. One does not want to wait for him to take care of it. Second, if the order is placed and bought the next day, how the customer handles it is another problem.

Generally, snails cannot be used as food in households. I rarely use it when I go to a hotel to get snails, so I can’t put them on the countertop. Eventually it ended up in late-night snack bars, because most of the people who eat late-night snacks have the mentality of eating big bacteria and eating small bacteria, and the small bacteria are used as supplements, but they don't eat them frequently.

Therefore, we must consider the sales direction and sales volume. It is best to conduct local market research and cost budget before cultivating snails, so as to determine whether snail farming is feasible.
