Elk Farming Guide

Elk farming is relatively new agriculture industry. Elk, also referred as Wapiti, are a magnificent and unique animal possessing many attributes that are suitable for business development. Every year, bull elk produce velvet or soft horn, highly valued by East Asian cultures. According to a recent research in North American, antler velvet is effective for nutritional joint support and maintenance.

Nutritionally the superior elk meat (AKA venison) is becoming more popular and is also developing rapidly. The controlled “sport” hunting is also earning popularity. These markets are supplied with animals from a stepping up breeding industry. The animals are expertly farmed to produce the maximum value offspring annually which can be sold at fluctuating market prices.

The elk farming in the U.S. is in early growth stage. The breeding stock is of the significant value. Now-a-days, farmers are trying to grow the biggest and best elk in their elk farming business. Elk are the hardy animals that require little of the attention required of cattle. They will eat whatever they can forage, including the shrubs, leaves and tree bark. The preferred feeds for elk include green alfalfa and grain supplement.
