2. Hatchery Unit
Land requirement:
Investment:
Land cost: Depends on your land and location
Breeder farm, other structures & equipment: 50,00,000.00 ¬ 55,0000,000.00 BDT
Hatchery building, other structures & equipment: 25,000,000.00 ¬ 35,000,000.00 BDT

Feed store
General store
Office
Laboratory
Recidential facility, etc.
The following equipment costs also considered in the budgetory amount:
1. Generator set for power back up
2. Sub-Station and Electrification
3. Inner electrification: fan, lighting, cables
5. Senitation System: Dranage, pit, etc.
6. Internal Roads
7. Automatic Shower System
8. Refreezerator, scales, cleaning equipment like high pressure water gun, sprayer, steel support for slats, etc.
Number of DOC production per year: 25 lac to 27 lac
Cost of procution per year: 80,000,000.00
Sales of DOC per year: If average 40.00 Taka 110,000,000.00
Sales of DOC per year: If average 50.00 Taka 125,000,000.00

Risk factor:
Suggession:
A standard breeder house is minimum 400′ x 40′ plus service room about 600 sft. So totally about 16,600 sft. Now a
days minimum 3 house is minimum to start any breeder operation. Less than this capacity, it is really hard to
maintain a farm properly. If you consider a farm less than this capacity, you will find all cost similar, but the
overhead will add with the DOC cost and it will be very difficult to survive. Land requirement need to be calculate 3
times of the construction area. Only farm is 43,800 sft + other infrastructures will be another 10,000 sft to 15,000
sft. That is 55,000 to 60,000 sft, which is over 3.50 bigha. Therefore, atleast 10 bigha land is required to start a
breeder farm.
Investment is depends on many items related to your decision, such as land, technology, construction quality,
machinery quality, management, etc. However, the approximate investment will be as follows:
4. Water system (Submersible pump, reserve tank, pumps, etc.
Ofcourse there is strong chances to ruined up the farm and there will be 100% loss and alsp there is potential of
200% profit. It is mostly depends of management skill and your shoc absorbing attitude. There is high risk as it is a
business related with life. If everything is OK, management is state of art, the profit is annormous than invest in any
other sectors.
Please consider all aspect, research your market, look next 15-20 years and take your decision. Also please
discuss with your consultant, and move forward.
