Rabbit farming is a type of business with huge potential for growth. More and more people are shifting their eating habits towards rabbit meat because of its numerous health benefits. Rabbit meat is not only low in fat, it's also low in cholesterol, high in protein and rich in iron. This makes it a healthy alternative to other red meats.

Rabbit meat can help reduce the risk of developing colon cancer and cardiovascular disease. And since rabbits multiply fast, they're able to produce a lot more meat than other animals like chicken or pigs. Rabbits can have up to 10 offspring per year, and each offspring weighs about 1 pound when fully grown.

In addition to the health benefits, rabbit farming is also popular because it's relatively easy to set up and doesn't require a lot of space. Most rabbits can be raised indoors, making this an ideal business opportunity for people living in urban areas with limited space or resources.
