Breeding domestic rabbits is a popular activity on the homestead, farm or in the countryside. A rabbit does not make any sounds, does not moo, squeak, quack, etc. One of the many advantages is that a rabbit takes up less space in the coop than other pets.

Rabbit meat is categorized as white meat and is considered a dietary product. This is due to its low calorie and sodium content. At the same time, rabbit meat is high in protein, B vitamins, and vitamin C, as well as valuable minerals such as phosphorus, iron, cobalt, fluorine, potassium and manganese. Rabbit meat is particularly valuable due to its high lecithin content.

It is profitable to breed a rabbit for this purpose! To raise a piglet  (FCR 4,5:1; Department of Agriculture and Fisheries), with a live weight of 100kg per year, you need 450kg of feed (balanced ration). From the 450 kg of feed used for rabbit breeding, you can get 147 rabbits with a live weight of about 4 kg. In other words, under the same conditions, a rabbit gains weight 32.42% more efficiently than a pig. In addition to this meat will always be fresh, just what you need for the table, plus pelts, manure and the possibility of a significant increase in income thanks to the project "30 highly productive areas in rabbit farming". A similar calculation of the data can be seen in the comparison of rabbit and bull defectivity.
