Nowadays more and more people are going into Nest processing (Nest cleaning) the reason being is to make better profit. Well that is true for those who already have successful farm s that constantly producing good harvesting monthly. They could process their own harvest and sell them instead of selling the raw nest to middle men.
.
But now it seems that those who don’t own successful farms and those who have no experience in Swiftlet farming are the majority that goes into Nest Processing.
.
Simple this group of people is opportunist. There are here to capitalist on the profit with one single intention that is to make money.
.
Well this is market economy where the money is where the people will be. They consist of owners of failed farms, opportunist, etc…..
.
I bet they had done their homework. A simple calculation if they were to start a farm it will be costly investment and they have to wait at least 2-3 years to see the returns. With their main intention of capitalizing on profit taking they don’t have the patient and interest to wait.
.
With such intention if they were to own farms often it will be a failed farm.
.
First they have to get a shop lot at least or a small Standalone. That would be at least few hundred thousand. Then the renovation of converted the shop would cost another thirty to sixty thousand depends on how and what they want in their farms. Later wait few years for the returns. In the event the farm failed the whole investment is gone.
.
So the safer side and the more secured one is to go into Nest processing. With ten of thousand they could buy many kgs of raw nest and process them. No matter how poor or how lousy their cleaning skill for every kg of nests they process they will sure make profit be it a profit of few hundred ringgit or as little as ten of ringgit it is still profit. These are the calculation and risk factor they had thought of. In the worst scenario if they are unable to sell their processed Nests they could always consume it themselves so it is a ‘Sure Win Situation”.
.
Compared to investing in a farm the risk and cost of investment are very much higher. So with the main intention of making quick profit this has transpired many to go into Nest processing. Before even get started this group of people already has a big vision some even had thought of how to market and export them to countries like China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, etc….
.
With the continuous huge demand from the above countries who doesn’t want to go into nest processing?
.
That is why now there are so many Nest processing seminars around. For a few hundred ringgit 1 day seminar thereafter one could make few thousand at least. Isn’t that a good bet?
.
Is that too good to be true……?
.
Well it beyond this simple way there are many things we have to look into. There are many unsuccessful companies that specialized in nest processing, selling of edible birds nest and exporting in Malaysia.
.
I wonder how many people noticed it.
Good farming all!
