Description

Deer Farming: A Practical Guide to German Techniques by Gunter Reinken. The claims for fallow deer farming advanced in this book are: Fallow deer venison's high consumer appeal and unfulfilled demand. High gross margins, especially when returns per working hour are considered. Its suitability as an alternative or secondary grazing enterprise in accord with environmental and animal welfare considerations. The book is based on West German experience from 1973 when a concerted programme examining alternative grazing enterprises for dairy farmers was initiated. It offers a wide range of insights, into the behaviour, nutrition, diseases and marketing of deer, of interest to all deer farmers. A short chapter deals with German experiences with Red deer, but the bulk of the chapters on housing, feeding, breeding and finance focus on Fallow deer which Gunter Reinken and his colleagues believe to offer the greatest potential for the development of Deer Farming.
