Measures of rational milking to ensure Goat Nutrition and increase Milk yield of Goat

1. Variety improvement. The milk yield varies with different breeds of dairy goats. at present, among the dairy goats raised in China, Saaneng dairy goat has the highest milk yield, with an annual milk yield of 600, 1200 kg. The introduction of Saaneng dairy goat to carry out pure breeding and hybrid utilization can significantly improve the milk production level of local dairy goats.

2. Survival of the fittest. The physique, weight, age and health status of ewes are the inevitable factors affecting milk production. In general, the milk production of goats reached the peak during the period of 2 to 5 births, and decreased after 6 births. Therefore, old sheep and sick sheep with low milk yield should be eliminated in time. Choose ewes that give birth to twin lambs for each fetus as dairy sheep. Ewes with round, pear-shaped breasts, swollen before milking and shrinking after milking should be selected as dairy sheep.

3. Strengthen the feeding and management. First, adhere to grazing, dairy goats graze for 5 to 6 hours a day, increase sheep activity, promote blood circulation and metabolism, promote gastrointestinal peristalsis and digestion, increase appetite, enhance physique, and increase milk production. At the same time, grazing allows sheep to eat nutritious and palatable grass. The second is to provide adequate nutrition to the sheep. In the early stage of pregnancy, each sheep has high-quality hay and silage every day; in the later stage of pregnancy, ewes not only need their own needs, but also provide for the growth of fetal sheep, and the nutrition level of this period is 30% to 40% higher than that of the previous period. 40% 60% of digestible protein, calcium and phosphorus are increased by 1% and 2 times. During this period, each ewe is fed silage, hay and concentrate every day. During the lactation period, soybeans can be fed. Soybeans are rich in nutrition. The grains contain 16% 20% fat, 36% 42% protein, and are rich in iron, calcium, vitamins, etc., which can improve the mammary gland secretion function of ewes. Milk yield can be increased by more than 0.5 kg when dairy goats are fed with 100 grams of soy beans per day. The percentage of milk fat is also higher than that of general dairy products. The third is reasonable milking technology. When milking, ask to keep quiet, the breast is washed with warm water first, massage carefully, make it expand, promote milking. Those with daily milk production of less than 2 kg can be milked twice a day, and those with more than 3 kg had better be milked 3-4 times.

4. Disease prevention and treatment. In addition to routine diseases, the prevention and treatment of breast diseases of dairy goats is very important. The breast is the only organ for ewes to secrete milk. Timely prevention and treatment of mastitis can ensure exuberant lactation. During lactation, wash the milk with soapy water and warm water to keep the nipples and areola clean. If the lamb sucks its nipple, it needs to stop feeding for 2 to 3 days, squeeze out the milk, then feed the lamb, and apply sulfonate ointment on the affected area. Milking on time every day, and massage the breast to eliminate the hidden danger of mastitis. Often check the breast, if the milk color change, the breast has caking, should be local hot compress, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. And let the dairy goats drink more water to reduce the viscosity of the milk and make the milk thinner so that it can be easily squeezed out. At the same time, keep gently massaging the breast with your hands, you can squeeze out stagnant milk while kneading, until you squeeze out the stasis, the lump disappears, and the mastitis is strangled in the budding stage. In addition, dairy goats are often fed with cool herbs such as dandelion, purple flower and mint, which can clear heat and purge fire, cool blood and detoxify, prevent and cure mastitis.
