Backyard business ideas. Eight business ideas on your land

I have a plot of 20 acres near the dacha. The next year I decided to make money on it. Tell me what to grow in the garden for sale in order to earn money?


In our time, people are increasingly faced with the question of how to get additional income, and sometimes even a job. Happy owners of a land plot need not think too much. To earn money, you can grow vegetables and fruits for sale in the garden.

The nuances of business from the garden

Before planting a garden in order to make a profit, you should pay attention to some of the features of earning from the garden:

  1. First of all, it is necessary to decide which crops to plant - many, but one, or little by little, but different. When choosing crops for planting, the size of the land plot is of great importance - for the profit to be tangible, it must be at least 20 acres. On a smaller plot, you simply cannot grow a lot, and, accordingly, you cannot earn. Although, if the garden is small, you can plant one type of plant, for example, onions - the most popular product in the spring.
  2. Since this will be seasonal work, you will have to come up with something else for the winter.
  3. To get a profit from the garden, you will need to spend a lot of physical effort, while you should not count on a large profit in the first year, because you will need to spend on seeds, fertilizers, etc.
  4. It is also worth considering the possibility of watering the garden, because this will affect the yield.
  5. An important factor will be the composition of the soil and the location of the garden. The yield also depends on the fertility of the soil, and not everyone has plots with black soil. In addition, early vegetables planted without greenhouses in the northern regions will not give much profit, or even die altogether.
  6. You need to think in advance about transportation and decide how to export the crop for sale. The most optimal packaging option will be cardboard boxes, nets or trays, depending on the type of crop grown.
  7. You need to find a sales market: sell personally at the counter, give it to dealers, or negotiate with a store on the supply of vegetables and fruits.

How much and what to plant?

Many are engaged in the cultivation of greens for sale with a conveyor: onions, parsley, dill. Or early cucumbers and tomatoes are planted, as well as radishes. If you plant tomatoes with a stock, seedlings are also sold.


You can plant all or most of your garden with a single vegetable. It would be a good idea to start with potatoes - they are stored for a long time, and there will be no problems with implementation. If the start-up capital allows, it will be nice to purchase a walk-behind tractor to facilitate manual labor. By the way, it is also useful when growing other crops.


Another option is strawberries. But it is worth considering that after three years the strawberries are degenerating, so you will either have to plant the bushes again (you can grow the seedlings yourself), or change the culture you are selling.

And after the strawberries, it is good to plant the garlic. Garlic is not very demanding in leaving, it is well stored, and the price for sale is decent.

Berries are in the greatest demand:

  • currant;
  • blackberry;
  • raspberry;
  • gooseberry.

There are always enough offers on the berry market, but the assortment is in short supply. In addition, some varieties (for example, remontant raspberries) are capable of producing crops in the first year of cultivation.

Berry bushes can be planted around the perimeter of the garden, leaving its center over garlic or potatoes.



First of all, you can grow various crops on your site.

Greenery

One of the most promising options is. If you buy a greenhouse, you can harvest up to 5-6 times a year. A simple greenhouse and seeds for planting will cost about 50 thousand rubles, and you can earn about 20 thousand rubles from selling greenery at retail or wholesale (to cafes and restaurants). per month.

Mushrooms

It is a profitable business with a high demand for its products. The most common are oyster mushrooms and mushrooms, moreover, they are the most unpretentious to care for.

Growing can be done in a barn, as mushrooms need a special microclimate and high humidity. The purchase of the substrate, mycelium, various additives and the provision of climatic conditions will require about 20-30 tons, and in this way you can get from 30-40 tons per month.

Cheese production

Homemade cheese is highly valued on the market, which is why it is an incredibly profitable project. You need a room for a workshop (at least 50 square meters) and special equipment.

The costs will be at least 200 thousand rubles, but the monthly income in a few months of the "client base" will be from 40 thousand rubles.

Rabbit breeding

Looking for an idea of \u200b\u200bwhat kind of business you can do on your site, pay attention to the always popular fur animals... At the same time, there is still not very high competition in this niche.

For a mini-farm for breeding 700-1000 per year, you will need a plot of 600-800 square meters and equipment (+ the animals themselves) in the amount of 140-160 tons. On the sale of rabbit carcasses, you can get from 50 tons per month.


Quail farm

You can count on the net profit after six months of work, and per month it exceeds the figure of 110 thousand rubles.

Mini smokehouse

Homemade smoked meats will certainly appeal to many, it is a relevant alternative to store products... The purchase of a mini-smokehouse will require an amount from 20 to 30 tons, depending on the volume of production and quality.

You can install it in an extension on the site, in order to equip a room for such work, it is necessary to lay out another 16-20 tons. On the other hand, such a project can start to bring profit already in the first two months of work. In particular, you can count on a monthly income of 20-40 tons.

Beekeeping

In this business, you can make money not only on honey, but also on medicinal products produced. Make sure that there is an orchard nearby, and that there are no pig farms nearby, bees also "don't like" dogs.

The hives should not be located too close to each other, count their number based on 20-30 square meters per hive. The size of investments for an apiary for 20-30 beehives will be about 250 thousand rubles, and the net profit per month - from 55 thousand rubles.

Having decided on that, study the sales market and feel free to get down to business!

A business in a summer cottage can bring good income if it is organized correctly. People in the country usually spend a lot of time in the summer. It can be spent not only on vacation, but also on earnings. You can pick up a variety of ideas for opening a small business in the country. Popular among summer residents are:

  • renting out a summer residence;
  • growing vegetables, fruits and herbs for sale;
  • production of smoked meats;
  • bath rental;
  • growing quail;
  • nursery for seedlings;
  • organization of an apiary in the country;
  • growing and selling mushrooms.

Lease of land and baths

Not all townspeople come to the dacha all year round. The reasons for the absence can be different: a business trip, the birth of a child or lack of free time. Despite this, you will still have to pay for utility bills and site security. So that the dacha does not stand empty and brings a little profit, you can rent it out to friends who like to spend time in nature. It can come in handy for neighbors in the area involved in growing vegetables. One of the conditions of the lease should be to maintain order on the site. If the dacha has a large house, and also has a sauna or swimming pool, you can rent it out to companies for the weekend. The proceeds received will be enough not only for utilities, but also for small purchases.

At the summer cottage, the bath is not used too often, so it can be rented out. If the site with a bath is located far from the city, then you can earn money on this. However, it is necessary to create all conditions for a comfortable stay of visitors. Firewood should be available at all times, a comfortable and clean room for rest, and the steam room should be heated by the agreed time to the desired temperature. As an additional income, you can sell beer, cold water, barbecue, fish - everything that may be needed for a pleasant company vacation.

Growing vegetables and herbs for sale

Cost-effective ideas for a summer cottage business - growing and selling fruits, vegetables and herbs. You can sell seasonal fruits such as apples and strawberries. If you wish, it will not be difficult to build a greenhouse and start growing cucumbers, tomatoes and herbs all year round. It is convenient to grow flower seedlings in the greenhouse for sale. Summer residents buy it quite well in spring.

Growing vegetables and herbs in the country will be profitable if you remember some of the rules:

  1. The harvest should be all year round, not just during the warmer seasons. One crop will give a small profit, but if you sell it constantly, it will increase many times.
  2. The conditions for growing plants must meet all the requirements: constant watering, timely fertilization, lighting.
  3. The amount of the crop is the most important business criterion. The received profit directly depends on it.

It can also be profitable to grow popular types of greens: onions, dill, parsley. They are eagerly bought at the beginning of spring; you do not need to make a lot of effort to care for the greens. If there are several greenhouses at the summer cottage, in one of them you can grow seedlings of seasonal plants. In the spring, it will be possible to sell seedlings of tomato, cabbage, bell pepper. If the area allows, you can grow seedlings of fruit trees, berry and ornamental shrubs. With proper organization and compliance with the growing conditions, the sale of seedlings will bring a good profit.

It's not difficult to build a small smokehouse in the country, and the profit can be quite good. Alternatively, you can smoke meat, fish, poultry. It is better to buy raw materials from local residents or grow them yourself. If you carefully study the technology of smoking and various brines, you can find regular customers. However, such a business requires appropriate registration in government agencies.

Growing quail

Ideas for a dacha business are interesting and varied. Recently, quail breeding has become popular. A quail farm can generate the desired profit when you consider a few things:

  1. You need to look for buyers or retail outlets that will sell products.
  2. Caring for quails is quite difficult and troublesome, so all the features of keeping poultry must be studied in advance.
  3. Quails are birds that require special care. Infection can kill a large proportion of pets.

With a serious and competent approach, quail can bring the first profit in a couple of months.

The herd must be large in order to generate significant returns.

Organization of an apiary and growing mushrooms at their summer cottage

Honey is a product that is in demand at any time of the year. Therefore, the installation of several hives at the summer cottage will quickly pay off and be profitable. To become a professional beekeeper, you need to read a lot of specialized literature, undergo training and communicate with experienced colleagues. To install an apiary, you will need a lot of money, which, with proper business management, will pay off in the first year. You can sell honey not only to neighbors, relatives and friends, but also on the market. Selling honey is not only a profitable business, but also quite dangerous, so you always need to follow safety precautions.

Growing and selling mushrooms can be an idea for a dacha business. They grow very quickly if the necessary growing conditions are met. The easiest way is to grow and sell champignons and oyster mushrooms. These are the most popular and best-selling types of mushrooms. They also require special conditions, which include air temperature, timely fertilization, lighting, ventilation and humidity. Home production and sales will be more successful if there is a wholesale buyer.

Additional profit options

There are many ideas for organizing a business at a summer cottage, the main thing is to find one that will bring not only profit, but also pleasure. As an option for a dacha business, you can choose:

  1. Breeding and sale of rabbits. It is a profitable business, but animals are susceptible to many diseases, so they need to get the necessary vaccinations in a timely manner. Rabbits grow very quickly, and food for them is inexpensive, so all costs will pay off in a short time.
  2. Breeding worms. An interesting and profitable business that does not require large investments. It is enough to organize a place to stay and acquire several families to start.
  3. Sale of poultry meat. If the territory of the summer cottage allows, you can grow and sell poultry. These can be chickens, ducks, quail and turkey poults.
  4. Manufacturing of bricks, decorative blocks. This requires the purchase of specialized equipment, but the cost of one unit of production is 2 times lower than the market price.
  5. You can open a woodworking enterprise. This is a profitable business, but costly, as it requires the purchase of specialized equipment.

Before starting a summer cottage business, you need to carefully study all the advantages and disadvantages of the selected options.

  • If your home is in a beautiful scenic location, then make this advantage profitable for yourself. Organize fishing or hunting trips, host holidays or rent out your home for photo shoots and other events.

How to make money on a summer cottage: mastering the rental sector

Do you own your own home and do not live in it all year round? Give it to others for money! This option of profit will not become too burdensome and difficult for you.

As we have already noted, such an enterprise is especially good if your summer cottage is located in a picturesque place, among a forest or near a beautiful pond.

There will be a demand for this service: not only couples wishing to retire may be interested in your offer, but also employees of holiday agencies, photographers, even tourists traveling in Russia.

The most profitable season, of course, is summer. During this time, you can rent out the house for long periods. But do not think that in winter the home will be empty. There are many people who want to celebrate the New Year's holidays at the dacha, located among crystal-clear snows and snow-covered forests. After all, many dream of starting the next year in warmth and comfort, with the crackling of firewood in the stove.

Take note

It is not necessary to search for clients yourself. Contact a real estate agency and start cooperation with specialists, for a small percentage they will look for you reliable tenants, which will save you from scammers and criminals.

Business ideas on your land plot: several options for summer residents

So, the first thing that comes to mind when it comes to production on a personal plot is food trade. Fresh milk, natural sausages, vegetables, sweet fruits, aromatic cheeses, fish, smoked meats, pickles, berries. The list is almost endless.

There are no people who do not like tasty, and most importantly, healthy food.

Take this into account and start earning! And we will tell you how.

Here are some ideas to help you get started:

Cheese production

Of course, such an activity will require you to know the recipes and culinary talent. But getting a cow or a goat is not at all necessary. You can buy milk from neighbors or villagers nearby. In this case, it is important to take care of the delivery of raw materials, so your car will be useful.

In fact, these are all the costs you face. You won't need to spend on the rest of the ingredients.

Homemade cheese is considered a healthy and low-calorie product, therefore it is in great demand. You can arrange supplies to cafes and restaurants, or sell your goods to neighbors, acquaintances and friends, or via the Internet.

Fishery

Even if you have a small plot, nothing can prevent you from digging and ennobling a small pond on its territory, launching fish on it and starting to make money on it.

You will have to spend money on the fish itself - it all depends on its breed. Naturally, gourmet varieties are more expensive than simple carp or crucian carp. Do not forget about feeding. You will need to purchase good and balanced feed so that the inhabitants of your farm not only delight you not only with the profit from their sales, but also with taste, pleasant appearance and health.

In addition, if you own a large plot, then by opening a large pond on it and registering all the rights to it, you can organize paid fishing.

Greens and herbs

You can even grow parsley, dill and other herbs on the windowsill. Both fresh onions and sorrel are in demand. The costs in this case are just scanty, but the payback is almost 100%.

In addition, you can plant medicinal plants, but in this case, knowledge is required not only from the field of agriculture, but also from medicine. We do not recommend taking on "complex" and "controversial" plants, but making herbal preparations that are convenient to brew is very possible. By the way, if you are interested in other options for home production without much hassle, then read another one of our

Business in your own summer cottage: the best ideas for enrichment in the country and bold options

We have already covered several useful ideas for earning money through renting and producing ready-made food products. Now is the time to talk about more creative and somewhat difficult options. We have no doubt that you will not be intimidated by the difficulties and will take note of some of them.

Quail breeding - non-standard solution for a poultry farm

People who keep chickens on their backyard can be found quite often. But those who breed quails are very few. 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 conditions of detention. Their small size allows them to get along well in small areas, they do not make loud sounds, they will not bother you with their fuss.

But their delicious meat and dietary eggs are for many people.

You can conclude 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 just seasonal income

If you are still sure that mushrooms can only be found at the forest edge, you are wrong. You can independently grow them on your site (and absolutely at any time of the year!) And receive constant profit.

The most popular varieties are oyster mushrooms and champignons. For their growth, land is not always necessary, they feel great in simple sawdust. The main thing is to properly fix the mycelium and take care of it.

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

Flowers - the perfect solution with minimal investment

Growing roses, carnations, gerberas, or any other flower can bring you good profits. However, be prepared for significant costs. You will definitely need a good greenhouse, fertilizers, 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, cut plants. Have fertilizer handling skills.

If things go uphill, you may want to consider opening your own store. We already talk about how to do this in this

Beekeeping - with health care

This occupation is many centuries old. Our ancestors also tried the power of honey from wild bees and began to collect it, despite all the danger of this activity.

Of course, striped workers collect nectar, produce medicinal honey, but caring for little workers falls on the shoulders of the beekeeper.

He will have to deal with cleaning the hives, protect them from rodents, organize comfortable conditions for the wintering of his insects, feed them and collect honey. It is important to ensure that there are no other bee farms nearby. Such a neighborhood will not bring success, but will only increase competition between animals and reduce their productivity.

To successfully promote your business, it is not enough to buy hives and bees. You should take care of the marketing of your product and delivery methods. That is why a private car will come in handy.

Now let's talk about profit.

Remember that besides honey, bees provide many other useful products: propolis, royal jelly, wax and many others. All this costs decent money, due to its naturalness, environmental friendliness and effectiveness in the treatment of many diseases. On average, purchasing about fifty bee families, you can count on income in the region of three hundred thousand rubles. Isn't it nice when work in the name of the health of buyers in the fresh air pays off with such money?

So our conversation has come to an end.

We hope that the ideas we have proposed have become a really useful acquisition for you. Take note of them, transform them according to your vision and start building a successful business that, over time, can grow into your life's work.
