@Suneel Kumar, Please read my old postings to get an idea how to start the farm. U can get bank loans by submitting Detailed Project report which we can provide u.

@ Tanvier Ahmed --- srinagar being a cold place will be good place for emu farming. Even egg laying season will be longer as compared to south india as emu birds only lay eggs in winters only.

@Gurpreet Singh, There are many farms in India that you can search for contacts and get price quotations. for more info you can call me.

@jsrao, U can get profits by selling the eggs or chicks or birds to the slaughter houses. Per year expenses per pair of emus is Rs.15000/- and income would be Rs.30000/- to 100000/-.

@srinivasa rao, U require approx 20000 Sft of land and Rs.22 lacs for 100 birds of emus for which u can get good funding from banks n nabard (above 20 lacs loan)

@KIRIT.C.SHAH, u can start farming in ur land without any hesitation. number of pairs depends upon ur financial position.

@Dr Sanjeet Rana
1. To hatch eggs for chicks you need to setup hatchery.
2. 100sqft land is required per bird. So for 20pairs you are looking at 4000sqft.
3. Male female ratio needs to be 1:1.
For any other question feel free to email me.

@Ramesh, Please read all my previous postings thoroughly how to start a farm. If further clarifications fee free to call me.

@Vishal, U can definitely start Emu farming in ur existing poultry farm. Its a very easy process for people who are already in poultry field. Please also note that within a span of 10 years we will be having only Emu farms and no broilers will be available. So its suggestible to convert ur birds to emus slowly.

@H.S.BRAR Brar, U cannot sell eggs from punjab to AP. but can sell the chicks. As the eggs has to be incubated within 7-10 days of laying its not possible for u to sell only eggs. If any other Emu farmer at ur nearby place(Sandhu Farms) u can contact them n sell ur eggs or can incubate ur eggs to chicks.

@J.J. Prasad Babu, Prasad garu u can call me at my mob any time from 9.00 am to 9.00 pm. Very nice to hear that u r making a documentary on Emus. Thank u.

@Mohan, Call me at my mob no.9246780131 for details

@BIPIN PATEL, Contact me at my mob no.9246780131 or mail id: emubirds.2010@gmail.com to get complete Project Report and information about Emu Farming.

@Venkat, there is good requirement of all emu product in India and abroad. In India now there are only 1 lac emus available but we require minimum of 10lacs of emu to meet the requirements. Hence now Emu Farming is in only brooding stage. This comes to slaughtering stage within 2-5 more years to sell our products. Profit is also very high in selling the chicks to new farmers. There are some slaughter houses, hyper market buyers and hotel people who require meat in bulk. As the stocks are very low no one are ready to sell their emus and end with low profits.

@harpreet singh, estimated project cost would be approx 20-30 lacs for 50 pairs of emus(cost upto 2 year). u require 10000 sqft of land for 50 pairs.

@Umesh Choudhary, I really appreciate your question for asking me. The problem with what new farmers in emu is lack of financial planning. this farming is not like starting the farm and revolving the capital. We should be prepared to spend for the farm upto 2-3 years without expecting any return as once we start emus start laying eggs from 2nd year and what ever we get in selling the chicks has to be spent back the same year to buy incubator or setup chicks brooding room and all. Once we do farming with good financial planing there will be no loss at all. New farmers start farms by purchasing the chicks with the complete amount they have in their hand and wont calculate for recurring expenditure(feed cost and others). Hence they fall into finance crisis and ready to sell at very low prices and end up their farm later. Nabard is not the bank that supports only EMU farming. As in many Govt schemes funds for poultry(broilers and Emu Farming) are insufficient. We has to wait minimum of 2 months to 6 months to get NABARD loan or we can get loans from normal all banks within 10-20 days. I personally got loan within 15 days.

@sukhjinder singh, project cost for 10 pairs of emus would be approx 3-4 lacs. u require 2000 sft of land. If u want to get income by this year u have 2 purchase birds of 15 months age which costs u approx 15-20 thousands. then project cost could be above 5 lacs.

@nirbhay singh, Contact me for detailed project report @ 09246780131

@nalinieleti,
1. investment for 100 pairs would 30-40 lacs (upto next 2 years).
2. U can sell the birds directly or we will be purchasing 3 months old chicks from u once u purchase chicks from us(buy Back up to 2 yieldings), we would support for marketing also.
3. u can earn minimum of 30000/- per pair per year.

@GURURAJ, Please read my previous posting above to get complete details, If further clarification required u can call me at 9246780131.

hai every one,v are in emu business from the past 7 yrs with 1000 emu birds, farm located at kurnool, andhra pradesh.its a very profitable business, i suggest to go on in establishing in emu'sit lays eggs till 40yrs life span is also 40to 45 yrs, v r supplying our chicks to maharastra. for further assistance pls feel free to contact:- sv govardhan, 099854622561

@harsha,
1) the cost of 1year emu will be around 8000 to 10000/- and 2-3 yrs bird 15000 to 20000/-
2) 40 to 45 yrs
3) it lays eggs till it die
4) 3 yrs emu can lay around 15 to 20 eggs and it increases year by year
5) emu can not be differentiated at early stages once it is grown doctors can grade them
6) we cant sell them in pair, if we sell 100 chicks the % will be like 60/40 or 50/50 or 55/45 for further assistance pls feel free to contact:- sv govardhan

@jigarpatel, In ur land of 1500 sft u can start with only 7 pairs of emus and the same can be done with 2 lacs itself. We can assist u for any requirement in Emu Farming.

@mohd.jameel, U can start emu farm with 50 pairs for which project cost would be approx 15 lacs. In ur 15 lacs u can get Interest free loan for 7.5 lacs(payable in 7-8 years) and 6 lacs from bank with interest(payable in 7-8 years). Breakeven for this project would be within 3-4 years. Later u can earn minimum of 15 lacs per year. Market is very good and will definitely best in up coming years.

@Harsha, never buy birds of 3-4 years(my personal view) as we dont know whether the farmer is selling u the good layers or bad layers. Its best to start with chicks of 3 months to 15 months age. Normally we get chicks male female in 50/50 ratio 5% less or more.

@navnath We have complete info about emus and farming. If u are interested u can call me at 09246780131.

@mohd. jameel, hi mohd. jameel mukesh this side u can visit my EMU FARM its 200km away from sikar or u can contact me at this no. 09991111069,09991111462,09991111465

@sagar mitra, U can sell ur chicks and eggs within local itself or we can arrange u the BUY BACK agreement to repurchase chicks. As there r no emu farms in ur area this is d best time 2 start the farm so that many new farmers will visit ur farm n start new farm by purchasing the chicks frm u. When v started our farm in our place 3 yrs before v were d first to start, now there are 54 farms in a radius of 100kms in which 40% are from our farm. As emu has full potential u need not worry about d marketing. U can call me at 09246780131 or mail at emubirds.2010@gmail.com for books/ project report.

@dev, Please call me for any clarifications/books/Detailed project report to get good idea of emu farming.

@vivek, @G .BACKIARAJ, @rajesh k. Sharma, You can avail Bank loans by submitting them the Detailed project report which we can provide you. U can call us at 9246780131 or mail me to my id emubirds.2010@gmail.com

@Emmadi srinivas reddy, U can avail Bank Loans for starting emu Farms. U can get 75% to 90% loan from any Banks. Regarding technical help there are many farmers nearby to ur warangal or we too can support u. If any info required you can call me.

@vedha, PLease read my old posting to get clarification regarding loans, marketing and management. If interested we can send u some books which gives u complete knowledge of all. We ourself offers BUY BACK agreement to repurchase chiks from u. We can also support u in any technical aspects too.

@kazi nissar, there r too many farms nearby to pune and nashik.
1. U can get 15 months old chicks @30000/- per pair.
2. Expenses per pair per year would be 15000/- per pair per year including feed, medicine, labour n all.
3. U can contact local farmers to sell ur eggs n chicks. Pune is a very huge market with good no.of birds.

@mathumohan.s, Ur initial investment for 15 pairs would be 3 lacs and cost for next 2 years would be 4 lacs. ie total project would cost u 7-8 lacs approx. for which u can avail loan of 6-7 lacs by submitting the detailed Project report(we can prepare for u) to the bankers. u will get back total 8 lacs within 3 years and can earn approx 4.5lacs per year frm 4th year.

@Lakshmi Praba,
1. Cost of 20 pairs of 15month old would be 6 lacs
2. feed, medicines and other expenses would be 3 lacs per year for 20 pairs.
3. there r many new farmers coming in TN and also buyers from other states also coming to ur state to buy chicks so need not worry for d mkt.
4. If u require detailed cost of expenses, Income for next 7 years we can prepare the Project report and send u. Feel free to contact us.
5. u require 5000Sft of land for 20 pairs of emus.

@N.Manikandan, Land u r having is sufficient for many no.of birds. I suggest u to start with 20-100 pairs of emus depending upon ur financial status. U can easily avail bank loans. Ur land is enough n u dont require more than that.

@Partha, @Bibhu, As u r capable to invest 20 lacs u can start the farm with 100 pairs of emus. If interested u can also get Govt n bank loans also. so that u can even start with just 3 lacs. many farms r devolving in Orissa, so that u can sell easily there itself or we are ready to give BUY BACk agreement to repurchase chicks frm u. better start with 3-6 mnths chicks so that ur budget will be beneficial than starting with 15 mnth old chicks.

@RAJ
1) If u want to start farm with only ur funds u can start with 50 pairs of Emus or if interested with bank loans u can start with more than 200 pairs. But i suggest u with maximum of 100 pairs only. Ur investment is sufficient with maintenance cost too.
2) u get ur earnings within 2 years. 2nd n 3rd year earning can clear all ur investment and can get good returns from 4th year onwards.
3) breakeven is 3-4years.

@vinay.s, We can provide u d required 25 pairs of emus. Contact me at my mobile r by mail.
@PAWAN, in an acre of land u can start with 20-100 pairs of emus. please read my previous postings to get minimum knowledge of emus r can post ur doubts to get clarified.
@Ram Prasad Patnaik, I did not understand what u mean of local diet. if u call me i can give u the combination of feed. U can also feed them with green leaves, vegetables, fruits etc which ever we get in less price.

@HEMENDRA GUPTA, Its not at all suggestible to purchase breeders of 2-4 years. best to start with 3-6 months chicks n gradually develop ur farm. If u start with small chicks u get complete idea how 2 breed them, how to incubate eggs, grow ur small chicks etc.
1. Cost of 1yr bird would be 12000/- to 15000/-. and above 2 yrs would be 20000/- to 30000/-.
2. 2 years birds would lay 8-10 eggs per year and above 3 years lays 12-20 eggs per year.

@Shankar patra, U can market in odisha n also many states in India. Minimum investment would be 3 lacs and above for 10 pairs and above.
