* The calculations use average data for Russia

A dacha is a great start for your business. If you add to this a minimum of funds and a little enterprise, you can earn 100-150 thousand rubles per season. Even a beginner can handle it.

A dacha is not only a place for a summer holiday, but also an opportunity to organize your own business. For many, the implementation of the presented business ideas will be their first attempt at entrepreneurship. The risks will be minimal, the organization process is quite simple. You don’t risk anything, but you get the opportunity to gain experience, try out an idea, and also earn money during the summer season.

Seasonal business in the country has several advantages:

the organizer of a mini-business at his dacha may not register his activities;
such activities are not subject to tax;
business can be started with a minimal budget.

Cottage for rent

Attachments:

10 thousand rubles

The simplest and most obvious business idea is to rent out a summer house. You can provide a house for daily rent or find a client who will live there for a long time. This service will be of interest to city dwellers who like to relax in the countryside, but do not have their own dacha; tourists who come to live in the fresh air; companies looking for a cozy place in nature to hold a corporate event, etc.

If the dacha is heated, then it can generate income not only in the summer. In winter, country houses are rented out during the January holidays. So if your dacha is located in a picturesque place, then you are in luck.

You can search for clients yourself through online advertisements or entrust this task to a real estate company. To implement this idea, investments are practically not needed. Still, they can be useful in preparing a house for rent and finding an order. But as for profit, renting a summer house for a day averages 2,500 rubles. And the monthly rent can be 20-50 thousand, depending on the conditions offered and the region.

On holidays the price tag is usually raised. And in order to increase profits, they offer additional services to guests: organizing fishing trips, barbecues, saunas, etc.

Apple business – own 1 hectare orchard

The apple business no longer requires waiting for profits for 5–7 years. Modern apple growing includes the use of intensive technologies when planting and caring for an apple orchard. New varieties will give you a harvest next year. Our apple orchard business plan will help you understand the basics of planting and caring for apples, as well as financial investments. Also, find out how to make money in the food industry.

Start your fruit growing business by registering a horticultural non-profit partnership (SNT). Documents are submitted to the tax service. Registration takes about 8 days. Payment of state duty is required.

The fruits you grow must comply with the following GOSTs:

GOST 32896-2014 - general technical conditions for dried fruits.
GOST R 54697-2011 - fresh apples sold in retail stores. Technical conditions.

New landing technology

For the most part, the outcome of the apple business depends on geography and the type of trees grown. But gardening improves every year. New technologies open up great opportunities and significantly reduce growing time. Follow our recommendations and get the following result:

after 1 year – 15 tons/ha;
after 4 years – 35 tons/ha;
after 6 years – 50 tons/ha.

The success of these technologies depends on planting tall varieties on dwarf rootstocks with a high planting density of apple trees and proper pruning of crowns. Tall varieties include:

Golden Delicious;
Red Delicious;
Jonared;
Simorenko;
Idored;
Starking;
Royal Delicious;
Stayman.

You can choose the appropriate variety for your area yourself. The necessary information can be found on the Internet.

The business plan for an apple orchard covers an area of 1 hectare. Trees are planted at 2,000–5,000 apple trees per hectare. Use the most popular dwarf rootstock, M9. This is an international standard. Grafting apple trees onto M9 will shorten the fruiting period to 1 year. The only drawback is that the roots are in the upper layers of the soil. Therefore, frost resistance is only -11°C. To adapt to low temperatures, cover tree roots with soil.

Necessary equipment

Nowadays, it is expensive for a start-up entrepreneur to buy equipment. An alternative option is to buy equipment on credit or lease, which you will pay with your first income. More detailed information about gardening equipment can be found here. To improve your earnings from growing apples, we recommend purchasing the following equipment:

Car/van/tractor with trailer - for transporting fruits;
Chainsaw or electric saw - for cutting dead trees;
Branch cutters - for removing broken and diseased branches;
Install an automatic tree watering system - this will free up your time for other important things.

Preparing for landing

First of all, make a plan for the proper planting of apple trees. Not only the health and quality of the fruit, but also your reputation depends on this. For this:

plow the area;
when planting, take into account the distance of the hole, which is compared with the diameter of the root of the seedling;
Fill the dug holes with water;
place the cut roots of the seedlings so that they are covered with soil;
prepare the necessary soil by creating a place for watering;
water the trees.

Prepare the soil for the garden in the fall, and carry out the planting itself in the spring. Trees should not shade each other. Therefore, think about planting your garden. Better yet, contact a specialist. The planting scheme for an apple orchard depends on the type of crown pruning:

Trimming type	Row spacing	Trees in a row
"Slender Veteran"	4 m	1.2 - 1.5 m
"Super spindle"	3 - 3.5 m	0.6 - 0.8m

Prepare holes for seedlings:

The soil	Hole size (m)
Rich black soil	0.6 x 0.6
Sod-podzolic	1 x 1
Gray forest	1 x 1

Hole: lower 25 kg of peat-distillation mixture and 40 g of phosphorus-potassium fertilizers to the bottom.

Garden care

An apple orchard as a business must take into account the ongoing maintenance of the orchard.
First, buy gardening equipment. Keep the soil around the trunk free of weeds. Do not till the soil mechanically with a garden tiller. Cover with dry conifer needles, bark chips, and treat with herbicides. Processing is done in the absence of wind. Simazin, Curb, Roundup, Glyphosate, Fosulen and other popular types of herbicides are suitable for this. Treat trees against insects. Use different types of insecticides, for example, Benzophosphate, Oleocuprite. If this is not done, harmful insects will significantly reduce your harvest or completely destroy it.

Watering the seedling - 3-4 buckets of water. Further watering occurs thanks to a well and a pump or using a drip irrigation system. This system not only waters, but also supplies soluble fertilizers, saving water and labor costs.

Trimming the seedling: leave 6 buds from the height of the stamp (from 80 cm).

Mow the grass between the rows. If you use a mower that will chop up grass, use the grass as a cover for the soil. Remove unchopped grass.

Be sure to provide trees with supports. For example, concrete pillars (height 1 - 2 m), buried in the ground at a distance of 25 meters with taut wire. Or use pine stakes (height 2-3 m). But first treat them with an antiseptic. Thanks to the supports, the tree will grow in a vertical position, and the branches with apples will not break.

Some facts:

the garden bears fruit for several decades;
The lifespan of an apple tree is approximately 50 years;
The peak of the highest yield falls on the 10-15th year of life with a further decrease in fruiting.

Harvest and storage

To receive the expected income, the crop must be properly harvested and stored. Fruit harvesting usually occurs in September. A characteristic indicator is the acquisition of a characteristic color of the peel and the ripening of the seed, which becomes brown.

Winter and autumn varieties are distinguished between removable and consumer maturity. In order for the product to be suitable for consumption, it is placed in storage for further maturation.

Requirements for collecting fruits:

collection is carried out manually in cool weather;
it is necessary to preserve the stalk;
there should be no damage on the surface;
the product cannot be poured, only shifted;
fruits that have fallen to the ground are collected in a separate container;
It is recommended to put apples in wooden boxes;
fold the fruit in layers, separating it from the previous one with a sheet of paper, and also cover it with a sheet on top;

You don't need special equipment to store apples. The basement will be a good place for storage. Monitor the temperature, keeping it between 0-2°C. You can keep it looking fresh until April by harvesting fall and winter varieties.

Selling apples

Growing apples as a business provides several optimal options for marketing products:

for small quantities of apples: sale in city markets, wholesale sales to traders, supply of apples to places where baked goods are made;
with large quantities of apples: sales of goods to large supermarkets, supply of apples to manufacturers of wine, cider, jams, compotes, dried fruits, jam, vinegar.

Orient the planting according to the varieties of apples you buy. This fruit is very much appreciated among wholesalers and ordinary buyers. If the territory and funds allow, build a warehouse for storage. When selling apples in winter, profits increase by 50%.

An apple growing business is a win-win, home-based income option. Even if you have not fully sold your product, you can additionally open a business selling dried fruits, which will not only preserve your product, but also increase profits.

Apple orchard in numbers

Risks

Before starting a business activity, it is necessary to analyze all possible risks. This business has the following risks and ways to prevent them:

crop failure - calculate your own costs for crop insurance;
loss of liquidity due to uneven sales - when taking out a loan, return funds in seasonal payments with the possibility of deferment and long-term loan repayment;
reduction in product prices - agree in advance on the supply of products;
untimely implementation of technological operations due to inexperience - strict execution of the planned plan for cultivation technology.

Timely analysis and identification of risks will help you avoid possible mistakes and financial losses in the future.

Additional income

You can also get a stable income from a new and profitable business producing and growing caramelized apples. To do this you will need:

caramelizer;
caramel mixture, water, sugar;

toppings (chocolate, nuts, powder, sesame seeds, sugar powder);
apples.

Financial plan:

The recommended price for sweets is 60 rubles.

Apple - 7 rub.

What else to do outdoors?

1. Growing strawberries A productive and tasty berry can be the key to a successful business. Quick implementation contributes to a monthly profit of 130,000 rubles.

2. Growing potatoes . It is the most popular vegetable in agriculture. Business profitability is more than 150%. The product has a high purchase rate, especially at the end of the summer season.

4. Berry business: we grow sea buckthorn in our garden. Sea buckthorn is not only a useful product, but also has multifunctional uses in cooking, folk and scientific medicine, and cosmetology, which makes it possible to quickly find points of sale for the product.

5. A cherry orchard is a good option for a family business for those who want to make money from crop production. The value of this berry does not subside until the end of the season. The income easily covers the initial expenses!

Bathhouse rental

Attachments:

15 thousand rubles

If your dacha is located near the city, and there is a modern bathhouse on the territory, then this business idea will help you make good money on it. The attendance of the bathhouse is influenced not only by the location, but also by the beautiful surroundings, high-quality interior decoration, and comfortable conditions. Think about the convenience of guests and install on the site: a place to relax (for example, a gazebo), a barbecue, a pool with cool water.

The advantage of this business idea is that the bathhouse can bring year-round profit. After all, a bathhouse and outdoor recreation can happen at any time of the year. An entrepreneur can handle this kind of thing alone. Many summer residents have already assessed the prospects of this business and are building bathhouses on their plots. Construction will require a lot of funds. But if you already have a ready-made bathhouse, minimal investments are needed at the start. This money will have to be spent on accessories for the bath, wooden tubs, firewood, etc.

Business on a personal plot

A dacha located in a rural area makes it possible to profitably use the land both for gardening and for various types of production. Land attached to a private house or a personal plot can also generate income from various types of activities.

Workshop

For men, there are many options for workshops at home: carpentry, car repair, shoe repair, key making. If there are no similar enterprises nearby and there is a sales market (for example, a residential area), the business can generate significant income. In holiday villages there will be a demand for workshops for sharpening and repairing tools and household appliances.

Playground

In holiday villages it is usually difficult to find organized entertainment for children, for example, a children's playground. If you place stairs, slides, swings on the site, and also organize activities for children, you can receive an hourly payment for the children’s stay. Investments can be different: an entrepreneur will incur minimal costs when building a children's playground on his own, and buying a children's playground with a trampoline or swimming pool will cost much more.

The cost of an hour's stay in such an entertainment center can vary from 100 to 1000 rubles.

Bathhouse rental

A bathhouse on a personal plot can generate stable income all year round. If the site is equipped with a gazebo, barbecue area and a swimming pool, the demand for such a recreation area is guaranteed. If you have a bathhouse, the start-up costs are minimal: you will need towels, hats, brooms and firewood. If the site is located near the city, the construction of a bathhouse can pay for itself in the first year of rental.

Ecotourism

Ecotourism is gaining popularity in Russia. In large areas it is possible to organize entire recreation complexes. If the site is small, it is necessary to create an entertainment program for visitors. For guests of dachas near rivers and lakes, it will be important to organize fishing, swimming, and boating. This type of business will require significant investment, but will bring good income for many years.

Land lease

This type of business will allow you to receive passive income without investment. Consumers of the service can be businessmen who want to organize production on a rented territory, as well as people for the purpose of relaxing outside the city.

For example, renting a summer cottage with a house in the Moscow region will cost, according to the portal gdeetotdom.ru, from 6 thousand rubles. per day.

Smoking products

Competition in this niche is low, but smoking products has its own characteristics:

the shelf life of finished products is limited;
it is difficult to calculate production volumes without surplus;
The optimal option is to work to order, but the income will be low.

Consumers can be catering establishments, individuals, retail stores and market resellers. Since this activity is related to food production, it is necessary to obtain permission from Rospotrebnadzor.

Business ideas for summer cottages and garden plots are diverse. Some of them require significant financial investments, sophisticated equipment, special skills and physical strength. Others require virtually no investment, but also do not allow you to get a high income. Optimal in terms of simplicity and profitability are growing herbs, mushrooms, fruits, raising chickens and worms, as well as renting a bathhouse and leasing land.

Lawn mowing

Investments:
30 thousand rubles

Many summer cottages suffer from an abundance of grass. Not all owners will be constantly engaged in the fight against unnecessary growth. And not everyone has the money to buy a lawn mower and other similar tools.

To implement a business idea, you need a full-fledged lawn mower, an electric hand scythe and small tools. The total cost is about 30 thousand rubles. You can recoup such investments in the first month. And to make the business profitable, you can offer additional services for landscaping. This could be trimming bushes, shaping tree crowns, etc.

Making garden figures

Attachments:

100-150 thousand rubles

The production of garden figures can be a profitable business idea. Anyone can organize it. Thanks to the special technology for making figures from plastic, plaster and other materials, this is easy to do.

The cost of one figure averages 400 rubles. You can sell such products at a price of 1000-1500 rubles. A good markup allows you to earn up to 80 thousand rubles monthly. Detailed information about starting this business can be found here.

Buying, storing and reselling something

Attachments:

from 3 thousand rubles

If a person regrets throwing away something valuable, he takes it to the dacha. And then the country house turns into a warehouse of old things. Sometimes you can find something rare there and sell it profitably.

The scheme for implementing the idea is simple: you decide what you will accept and hand over to resellers. And then you drive around the neighboring dachas, hoping that you will come across a “treasure”. For example, buyers of old electronics are hunting for parts made of precious metals or copper (you can read more about this type of income here). But you don’t have to buy old stuff. For example, you can buy potatoes from local gardeners and then resell them. Typically the markup is 30%.

Production and installation of greenhouses

Attachments:

60 thousand rubles

Among summer residents there are probably those who are engaged in greenhouse farming. So there is always a demand for the construction of greenhouses. Therefore, we will manufacture and install modular greenhouses. To implement your business idea, you will need a set of equipment and tools: a cutting machine, a welding machine, as well as devices for bending metal structures.

The profitability of such a business can reach 100-150%. The initial investment pays off in 4-5 orders. To increase profits, you can engage not only in the manufacture, but also in the installation of greenhouse structures. It is very important to find potential clients who will provide you with work for the whole season. The peak of sales occurs in early spring.

Garden landscape

Attachments:

from 20 thousand rubles

Making money from landscape design is a fairly current business idea. Many summer residents strive to equip their plot. But not everyone can bring their ideas to life. Therefore, with the right abilities, you can make money by creating mini-ponds, laying paths, etc. To carry out this work, you will need construction tools and equipment. You will have to spend about 20 thousand rubles on this. The business requires minimal costs and can pay for itself from the first order.

What crops to grow

If you work with seedlings, you can grow vegetables and flowers for sale. Moreover, both need to be selected experimentally. Another important factor is seed stores. You need to understand what you can buy, plant and subsequently sell. Traveling to a large city or somewhere else to buy seeds may cost more than purchasing seeds in your city.

Now let's briefly go over what exactly to grow. The best selling flowers are annuals: petunias, sulfinia, verbena, godetia, marigolds, snapdragons and others. Summer residents are interested in these flowers for sale and for decorating their own plots. They are quite beautiful, interesting and sell well.

It is desirable that there are many varieties of even 1 flower. This will significantly expand your range. You should definitely have at least 10 - 15 varieties of each flower. The bigger, the better.

But you can't go far with flowers alone. Another good option would be to grow vegetables: cucumbers, tomatoes, eggplants, etc. They sell well, even with minimal effort, and if there is any excess produce, you can always eat the vegetables.

The most important thing is to know the varieties of your products. Where do they come from, how to care for them, what can grow from them. That is why I recommend purchasing only high-quality and proven seeds. Over time, you will learn how to choose crop varieties, but first you will have to ask experienced farmers for advice.

Playground

Attachments:

from 30 thousand rubles

Often people come to their dachas with their whole family. And it is difficult to find a playground or a centralized place for games there. The business idea is to organize a children's town. This can include simple attractions, an inflatable trampoline, slides, swings... In general, there can be many options, but the essence is the same: you organize various attractions for local children.

Depending on the idea, the amount of initial investment will vary. For example, you can install a rocking ride for small children - this will cost about 30 thousand rubles. But for a small trampoline you will have to spend about 100 thousand rubles, but you can earn more.

Who is a dacha business suitable for?

It’s difficult to combine business in the country with work in the office, because you still have to get to the country house. The road takes time, so a dacha business is suitable for women and men who can live outside the city for a long period of time.

Thus, mothers on maternity leave, pensioners, freelancers, students, and people with remote main jobs can work with a business in a suburban area.

As you expand your own business, it will take more and more time, and you may have to leave your main job.

Sale of seeds and seedlings

Attachments:

from 0 rubles

If you like to grow greens, then the business idea of making money by selling seeds and seedlings is suitable for you. Organizing your business is quite simple. It is enough to have a small plot of land and ordinary equipment for cultivation.

You can start a business without investment. The easiest option is to grow shrub plants, for example, raspberries, currants, etc. But you can earn a little money from this. More serious income will come from growing seedlings of fruit trees (apple trees, cherries, etc.). The biggest profits can be expected from seedlings of coniferous species - they are valued much higher and are in demand. By selling seeds and seedlings, you can earn about 30 thousand rubles per month.

Growing mushrooms

Investments:
from 20 thousand rubles

The idea of the business is to grow mushrooms in a summer cottage. This requires a minimum of funds. More experienced entrepreneurs recommend that beginners start with growing oyster mushrooms. These mushrooms are unpretentious and do not require serious care. As soon as you manage to organize the cultivation of oyster mushrooms and figure everything out, you can start growing champignons.

To grow mushrooms you will need an area of at least 12 square meters. m. A basement or barn will do.

To organize this business, you need:

purchase grown mycelium;
prepare the place itself and the substrate - sawdust or straw;
create certain conditions for growing: certain lighting, temperature about 20 degrees, humidity 85%;
when the first shoots appear, the bags need to be moved to another place - where there is more light and the temperature is about 15 degrees.

The first harvest can be obtained in 2-3 months. The process of growing mushrooms in a summer cottage is a fairly simple but fascinating task. Moreover, it can turn into a profitable business. From 1 sq. m. area produces up to 20 kg of champignons. Having a production area of 30 sq. m. you can grow 600 kg of mushrooms. Their wholesale price is approximately 70-130 rubles per kilogram. If you sell your products through a wholesale warehouse, your revenue will average 60 thousand rubles. The net profit will remain 25-30 thousand rubles. You can read more about growing oyster mushrooms in a more serious format here.

Business on your own dacha plot of land: the best ideas for enrichment in the dacha and bold options

We have already covered several useful ideas for making money through rentals and the production of prepared food products. It's time to talk about more creative and somewhat complex options. We have no doubt that you will not be afraid of difficulties and will take some of them into account.

Quail breeding - a non-standard solution for a poultry farm

You can meet people who keep chickens in their garden quite often. But there are very few people who breed quails. But in vain. After all, such a business is not only more profitable, but also simpler.

These birds are not only unpretentious in food, but also in their living conditions. Their small size allows them to get along well in small areas; they do not make loud sounds and will not bother you with their fussing.

But their excellent-tasting meat and dietary eggs appeal to many people.

You can enter into a contract for the supply of products with restaurants and cafes, this will allow you to quickly gain momentum and get your money in a short time.

Mushrooms are not only a seasonal income

If you are still sure that mushrooms can only be found on the edge of the forest, you are mistaken. You can grow them yourself on your own plot (and at absolutely any time of the year!) and receive a constant profit.

The most popular varieties are oyster mushrooms and champignons. They don't always need soil to grow; they thrive in simple sawdust. The main thing is to properly secure the mycelium and care for it.

After you have mastered the principles of working with these varieties and established sales channels, you can choose something more exotic, for example, shiitake. These Asian mushrooms are very popular among the residents of our country, not only because of their excellent taste, but also because of their beneficial properties.

Flowers are the ideal solution with minimal investment

Photo from the site parnik-teplitsa.ru

Growing roses, carnations, gerberas or any other flowers can bring you good profits. However, be prepared for significant costs. You will definitely need a good greenhouse, fertilizers, and planting materials. Without all this, success simply cannot be achieved.

In addition, it is important to have specialized knowledge on how to properly plant, care for, and cut plants. Have skills in working with fertilizers.

If things go well, you might think about opening your own store. We will already talk about how to do this in this article.

Experts do not recommend stream-growing several varieties of flowers at once. It is better to stop at three varieties. Make sure that all agricultural work on them is carried out at different times.

Roofing installation and repair

Attachments:

150 thousand rubles

In suburban areas, a roofing and roof repair service would be a good business idea. Therefore, if you have certain skills, you can make money from construction work.

To get started, you will need an investment of 150 thousand rubles. You will spend it on purchasing tools for dismantling and replacing the roof, as well as consumables. During the season you can earn about 300 thousand rubles, recouping your investment and leaving a net profit of 150 thousand rubles.

Growing flowers in a greenhouse

Attachments:

from 150 thousand rubles

Many gardeners who grow flowers in their dachas are thinking about making money from their hobby. Business to make money on flowers is one of the best. There is always a demand for flowers, and during the holidays it increases. In the summer, you can look forward to school holidays (last bell, graduation) and weddings.

Most often, cut roses are grown in greenhouse conditions. You can grow flowers in open ground, but then the period when you can get a harvest will be shortened, and you won’t earn much from it.

Organizing such a business in your summer cottage will not be difficult. A small area will be required to accommodate a heated and illuminated greenhouse, as well as good planting material and a wholesale base that buys flowers. A description of the business on a larger scale can be found here.

Why is business in the country convenient?

Many Russians use their country houses and plots exclusively for recreation, or, as a last resort, they grow vegetables and berries for their family. We suggest using idle space wisely and opening a summer cottage business.

Even the usual growing of vegetables in the garden can be turned into a seasonal mini-business. In addition, the dacha has a house, a barn and a plot of land - plenty of room to choose your business area! Even small production can be organized.

The premises and land are already yours - no need to spend money on rent. You can work at a convenient time and adjust your business to the season.

Growing vegetables and herbs

Attachments:

from 30 thousand rubles

The business idea is that vegetables and herbs are in great consumer demand. Therefore, it is profitable to grow and sell them.

Before you start, consider your options:

How much area can you allocate for a greenhouse? And what kind of harvest to harvest?
Do you have the agronomic skills, knowledge and ability to grow vegetables? Will you be able to provide the technical equipment of a greenhouse for growing a particular vegetable crop?
How will you market the products? Should I sell it to wholesale vegetable warehouses or sell it myself?

By answering these questions, you can decide on your next steps. The list of the most profitable vegetables that are in regular demand and do not require complex technologies for growing includes: potatoes, tomatoes, cabbage, cucumbers, radishes, onions and garlic, and herbs. Business profitability can reach 300%. More information about this business can be found here.

How to make money on a plot of land

The first idea of making money on land that comes to mind is farming. That is, grow fruits, vegetables, flowers, sell them and get decent money for it. There are entire states in the USA where entrepreneurs specialize in farming. In Russia everything is still not so developed, but you have a chance to revive the country's agriculture.

It is best to grow and sell seedlings. It takes up much less space, requires much less effort to breed and will bring a lot of money over a long distance.

The seedlings are also supported by the fact that they are relatively inexpensive and the demand for them is high. Seedlings require less time. If you grow vegetables or flowers, you will spend about six months from planting to harvest. If you work with seedlings, there will only be 3-4 months of continuous work.

Work on a plot of land is far from seasonal. You will work throughout the year. Breaks are possible from October to November and in April.

Starting in July, we will have to work according to this scheme:

Preparing land and seeds.
Growing seeds.
Obtaining seedlings.
Transplanting seedlings into the ground.
Sale.

It usually takes 8-10 months a year to do everything, 2 months for active trading.

Land for rent

Attachments:

0 rubles

If you have a plot of land, but you don’t want to develop it yourself, you can use the business idea and simply rent it out, earning a lot of money. Who would be interested in such an offer? Entrepreneurs who want to organize their own production of various agricultural products there. You should look for clients at city business forums, or by posting advertisements on specialized websites.

Now many entrepreneurs need space for their business. If the area of the plot exceeds 6 acres, it can be used for growing medicinal herbs, flowers and other crops in large quantities. Renting summer cottages allows you to receive passive income and not invest money in the development of the enterprise.

Pet breeding

Attachments:

from 30 thousand rubles

The idea of such a business is old, but still profitable. But how much money it can bring depends on the chosen direction. Animal husbandry is a broad field. To decide on a direction, you need to build on local demand and your capabilities.

If you have a small plot, you can raise rabbits, birds and bees. And if the area is large, then the animals can be larger. According to experienced farmers, the highest profits come from turkeys, rabbits, goats, pigs and bulls. In a mini-firm environment, these animals are considered the most profitable.

All livestock products are always in demand, so sales will not be a problem. Beginning farmers can sell meat, eggs and other produce at markets or through small local stores. Just pay attention if you decide to sell your products through a reseller. If you do not have any documents for your products, then many may simply not accept it. But at the dacha, you can sell everything to neighbors, friends, or go to the local market.

Income ideas

When deciding how to make money at your dacha, you should take a responsible approach to selecting a startup. Not all ideas are suitable for implementation on a summer cottage. Some of them will be unprofitable and are best considered only if there is real estate in the city.

Growing worms

One of the business ideas in the country is worm farming. Worm breeding is in demand:

Rain. They adapt to almost any climatic conditions. This means that the investment will be profitable and it will be possible to increase it without much difficulty.
Muchnykh. These representatives reproduce extremely quickly, which is a significant advantage. They are resistant to significant temperature changes.
Reds. Breeding such representatives requires experience. The look is quite capricious.
Prospectors. They quickly process food and tolerate temperatures up to +25 degrees. The species is strong and picky.
Dendrobenov. Individuals are large and fleshy. It is not difficult to make money from them, since representatives can easily tolerate even sub-zero temperatures.

You can buy worms for further reproduction at a specialized farm. For starters, 2-3 thousand individuals will be enough.

Play area for children

If you want to open a business on your own plot of land, you can give preference to a children's playground. In holiday villages there is usually no choice of entertainment for children. That is why you don’t have to be afraid of competitors. Investments range from *30 thousand rubles. The specific amount directly depends on the selected attractions.

It is better that entertainment is aimed not only at children, but also at teenagers. This will have a positive impact on profitability. The profitability is due to the fact that while parents are engaged in dacha work, schoolchildren have nothing to do. They will be completely safe in the children's town.

Income from rent of land and house

The plot and the house can be rented out. Such a business will be especially relevant during the season. In summer, spring and early autumn, city dwellers dream of escaping from the hustle and bustle of the city and spending their weekends in the countryside, where there is clean air, silence and beautiful scenery. There are no special opening costs required. It is enough to keep the area and house clean. They must have comfortable conditions for rest. The site must have a barbecue and gazebo. An ideal option would be the presence of a swimming pool. The house must have a shower or bath and several sleeping places. The presence of a bathhouse on the site will also be a bonus.

You won’t be able to make money from renting out your dacha all year round. In winter, the site will be in demand only during the holidays.

Growing mushrooms and collecting honey

You can open a business on your plot for growing mushrooms or producing honey. The second option is profitable at any time of the year. Installing hives will quickly pay for itself and begin to bring in good profits. The main thing is to always follow safety precautions.

If you decide to grow mushrooms, then you need to choose oyster mushrooms or champignons. These are the most common varieties. For a good harvest, you will have to create ideal conditions by adjusting the humidity level and temperature.

Income from berries and fruits

This land business idea requires minimal costs. You can start even if you have 20-30 thousand rubles. You can grow vegetables, berries, fruits, and herbs on your plot. It is better to choose popular but undemanding varieties.

Production of tiles or figurines for the garden

Such a business on a site will require an initial investment of about *100-300 thousand rubles. For production it will be necessary to have special equipment, for example, concrete mixers, construction mixers, specialized forms. This business is suitable for men. It will be quite difficult for women to cope with it on their own.

Rose breeding

The most profitable type is breeding roses by cuttings. In a few years, you can acquire a large garden, which is enough to sell wholesale flowers for the holidays. Such a small business is most profitable during the season. Sales are several times lower during non-holidays.

Bathhouse rental

If there is a bathhouse on the territory, then you can organize a good income at the dacha. You can rent it out to companies for the weekend. The profit received will be used to pay off utilities and minor expenses. The remaining money will be pure profit. This option is especially popular in the Moscow region.

Quail farm

Real examples of business in this area prove that a quail farm is profitable. She doesn't need a large area. A standard size dacha is enough. Earnings will come from the sale of quail meat and eggs. Production will cost *50-70 thousand rubles. The funds will be used to purchase food and birds. Only 1 person can serve up to 500 birds, which means that additional personnel will not be required.

Making nails

To receive income from such a business, an initial investment of *250-300 thousand rubles is required. The most expensive purchase is a specialized machine. If the amount of funds is limited, then it is better to choose a used option. When purchasing new equipment, costs will increase to 800 thousand. The average net profit in the production of nails is about *150 thousand rubles.

Income from fish farming

Making an income from fish farming is not easy. It will be necessary to create suitable conditions. Baths with an artificial air aeration system will be required. We must not forget about possible risks, for example, short shelf life of products and possible diseases. To open a business, you need to open an individual entrepreneur, LLC or KFC.

Livestock

If there is a possibility of full-fledged grazing of animals, then horse farming would be an excellent option. Such a garden business will have high profitability. Additional profit from the business will come from driving lessons.

An exotic option is an ostrich farm. When deciding how to make money from a vegetable garden at your dacha, you can choose more popular varieties. You can keep chickens, geese, cows, pigs, and rabbits on the site.

Manufacturing of fences

Owners of summer cottages are the target audience of the business producing and installing fences. If we are talking about a country village where wealthy people live, then the cost of production can be calculated in dollars. The only disadvantages of this business are high competition and seasonality.

If gates and other parts will be transported over a long distance, then the cost of the road must be additionally included in the costs.

Rabbit breeding

To earn money in the garden, you can give preference to raising rabbits. Even a small summer cottage plot is suitable for such a task. When purchasing it, you don’t have to pay much attention to the indicated hundred parts. The advantages of making money by breeding rabbits include low start-up costs, a minimal list of required documents, the high cost of the resources received, and low competition.

Raising geese

Another profitable way to earn money is raising geese. Birds are easy to keep and give the fastest profit. You can make money on goose liver, eggs, feathers and down, young animals, as well as litter.

Among the risks is the likelihood of a reduction in the herd. In some regions, products may not be in demand.
