What is the feed formula for fattening cattle? What is the work to be done in fattening sheep?

Beef cattle and mutton sheep in breeding industry are relatively short breeding cycle and high economic benefit breeding projects. What is the feed formula for fattening cattle? What work does fattening sheep have to do?

1. What is the fattening cattle feed formula

1. Silage maize-based feed formula (wet weight): silage maize80.8%,corn 17.1%,cottonseed cake 2.1%.

2. Feed formula based on distiller's grains (wet weight)(taking 300 kg growing beef cattle as an example): corn 1.5 kg, fresh distiller's grains 15 kg, millet grass 2.5 kg, urea 70 g, salt 30 g, additive premix 100 g. Due to the low degradation degree of crude protein in distiller's grains, it is easy to lead to insufficient degradable nitrogen in rumen and reduce the digestibility of crude fiber. If a certain proportion of urea is added to distiller's grains diet, a better effect can be obtained.

3. Formula of beef cattle weighing less than 300 kg in scale cattle farm: corn 61 kg, bran 15 kg, cotton (miscellaneous) cake 20 kg, salt 1 kg, bone meal 1 kg. 100 g premix, 2 kg concentrate, coarse feed ad libitum per cow per day.

4. Fattening formula for beef cattle weighing more than 300 kg: corn 70 kg, bran 13 kg, cotton (miscellaneous) cake 15 kg, salt 1 kg, bone meal 1 kg. 100g premix, 3 - 3.5kg concentrate, coarse feed ad libitum per cow per day.

2. What kind of work does fattening sheep have to do

1. Prepare for housing

Fattening sheep in house should prepare pens and sports grounds. Sheep farms require construction in high dry, leeward sunny places, and good drainage nearby, away from residential areas, traffic arteries, there can be no slaughterhouses, chemical plants, etc. nearby, but the requirements can be convenient, easy to purchase feed, mutton sheep for sale. Sheep shed to have heatstroke prevention and cold function, sheep shed area to be determined according to the number of breeding sheep, generally each sheep sheep area of 0.8~1.2m2, ram and ewe area can be larger, lamb can be appropriately smaller. The sheep house is generally 2.5m high, the door width is not less than 1.5m, and the height of the window from the ground is not less than 1.5m to ensure sufficient light and good ventilation. In summer, it is necessary to install cooling and heating facilities in the house, and in winter, it is necessary to set heating facilities to maintain a suitable temperature in the house. A sports field should be set up near the sheep house. The area of the sports field is usually 2 to 4 times that of the sheep house. Fixed troughs and feeding troughs should be placed around or in the middle of the sports field. Summer can be set up in the stadium shade, sports ground around the planting of tall trees, play a role in isolation and heatstroke prevention.

2. Prepare enough fodder

Fattening sheep need to reserve sufficient forage, which is the basis of fattening sheep, to make full use of local feed resources, as far as possible to avoid long-distance transport of feed, increase breeding costs. The climate in our region determines the shortage of green feed in winter and spring, which is easy to cause the lack of vitamins, trace elements and other nutrients in mutton sheep. Therefore, it is necessary to prepare silage for breeding mutton sheep in house. In addition, we should also expand the source of feed, widely use a variety of feed for fattening sheep, can use the waste, residue by-products, such as distiller's grains, bean curd residue and so on. conditional farms can also grow their own high-quality pastures to raise sheep, which can reduce feed costs.

3. Select varieties

Good breed is the basis of raising good mutton sheep. In breed selection, attention should be paid to selecting excellent breeds suitable for local climate and breeding conditions, with high production performance, high feed reward, short feeding cycle, good meat quality and remarkable economic benefit. General I choose the area introduced from abroad, such as Charolais, German meat Merino and other local sheep hybrid offspring breeding, fattening effect is better.

4. Choose the appropriate fattening stage

Lambs in 1~8 months of age when the main growth is muscle, so the lamb weight gain speed faster than the old sheep, fattening effect is better, so choose to use lambs to do a good fattening sheep production of meat products of good quality, breeding economic benefits are higher, therefore, house feeding meat sheep breeding generally in lambs weaned in addition to stay for breeding lambs, the rest are according to gender, weight and other fattening groups. And adult sheep fattening chooses to eliminate sheep to divide fattening according to age, weight.

5. Castration, disinfection and anthelmintics

The male lambs were easy to manage after castration, and the meat quality and flavor were improved. Clean and disinfect the pens thoroughly before fattening. And the sheep in vivo and in vitro parasite drive work, in order to ensure good fattening effect.

Fattening beef cattle or mutton sheep need large-scale operation to see the income. It is suggested that farmers decide whether to breed them after preliminary investigation, so as to avoid losing money due to fever.
