How to deworm cattle in cold winter?

Beef is one of the inseparable red meat in everyone's life. It tastes delicious and can play the role of iron supplement. Now there are more and more people raising cattle, but in winter, if they are not taken good care of, they are prone to disease. So how to deworming cattle in winter? What are the other points for attention in the process of breeding?

1. How to deworming cattle in winter?

1. Choose the ideal insect repellent.

There are many kinds of cattle parasites that can be infected, and some of them also have concomitant infection. Therefore, before the use of drugs, can be diagnosed through its feces and various symptoms, according to the type of parasites infected to choose deworming drugs, must not be used blindly. Otherwise, not only the deworming effect is not good, but also bad for the health of cattle and sheep.

2. Carry on the small group test first

When deworming a large herd of cattle, a few heads (only) were selected for efficacy test. Why? This has two advantages: first, it depends on whether the drugs used are correct; second, it can prevent poisoning. Deworming drugs are generally very toxic, and when they are proved to be safe and effective, they will be used in large groups.

3. Specific methods of deworming

Round nematodes (Ascaris lumbricoides, sarcoidae, hookworms, Trichuris, etc.) are parasitic in the digestive tract of cattle. 1% trichlorfon solution can be used to refine trichlorfon solution. Cattle per kilogram body weight is calculated as 0.1 g, once a day for 3 days. Levamisole can also be used. Cattle per kilogram of body weight is calculated as 8 mg, once on an empty stomach, once a day for 3 days. Fascioliasis can be used nitrochlorophenol, cattle per kilogram of body weight according to 6 mg, an empty stomach, once a day, for 3 days.

Matters needing attention in raising cattle in winter

1. Skillful treatment of straw: simple forage and lack of nutrition in winter can easily lead to cattle losing fat and losing weight. If the straw is ammoniated in winter, cattle will like to eat it. The practice is to fine the wheat straw and rice straw into short knots 2 cm long and add 4 kg urea for every 100 kg of broken wheat straw or rice straw. During the specific operation, the urea is fully dissolved with 40 kg of water, then stirred in crushed wheat straw and chopped rice straw, mixed well and loaded into a large cylinder or cement pool, compacted, sealed and ammoniated, and can be opened for feeding after a month. Ammoniated forage is soft, fragrant and easy to digest.

2. Heat preservation: for cattle farms in the north, heat preservation is the top priority. Low temperature mainly harms cattle in two aspects: one is that the energy used by cattle to keep out the cold is increased, the growth rate becomes slower, and the waste of feed; second, the low temperature is easy to cause cattle to induce some diseases. Such as upper respiratory tract infection (can be treated with Kechuan Sukang).

Close the doors and windows: we must pay attention to whether the doors and windows are closed, especially at night, the attack of thieves will cause great harm to cattle.

Canvas insulation: for open or semi-open enclosures, they can be surrounded by thick canvas or plastic sheeting to keep warm.

Bask in the sun: when the weather is good, you can drive the cattle out and around and bask in the sun. On the one hand, it can promote the blood circulation of cattle, on the other hand, it can promote the absorption of calcium and reduce the occurrence of limb diseases.

Heating equipment: if necessary, heating equipment such as heating stove and radiator can be installed in the barn to maintain a suitable temperature. Especially for newborn calves, the enclosure temperature should be kept above 5 ℃.

3, drinking water heating: cold weather in winter, cattle should drink about 25 ℃ of warm water, but also in warm water to add some salt and minced beans, cattle love to drink, but also can reduce fire, anti-inflammation.

4. Feeding: when raising cattle in winter, do not feed frozen materials or metamorphic materials, so as not to cause diseases of the digestive system of cattle. Due to the lack of green feed in winter, premix (such as cattle and sheep fattening peptide and Jialijian) must be added to the feed to supplement nutrition. If there are conditions, you can also properly feed radish, sweet potato and other succulent feed. You can also feed some fat properly to make it easier for cattle to catch fat and enhance their anti-freezing ability.

1. Carefully grasp the breeding work: cattle are usually born in summer in spring and autumn in winter. Breeding and pregnancy in winter can avoid calving in hot summer and help cattle to get high yield. Therefore, farmers should seize the good opportunity in winter to do a good job of breeding and improve the quasi-pregnancy rate, so as to lay a good foundation for the smooth birth and healthy growth of newborn calves.
