How to regulate the poor appetite of beef cattle and find the right reason is the key.

Beef cattle breeding

There are many reasons for poor appetite of beef cattle, so comprehensive measures should be taken to recuperate.

1. Deworming. For emaciated and anorexic cattle, deworming is the first thing to do. 0.1% Liuweijia and albendazole were given at the same time, which could dispel nematodes, worms, trematodes, tapeworms, etc., and reuse Liuweijia once after 7 days, and also dispel body surface parasites. The addition of ruminin to feed can not only improve the feed conversion rate, but also has obvious anti-coccidiosis effect.

2. Rumen iron extraction. Cattle eat thicker, iron wire and nails in forage grass are easy to enter the rumen and sink into the reticulum, causing trauma to the reticulum and affecting the cow's appetite, so it is necessary to take iron from the rumen regularly.

3. Eliminate gastrointestinal inflammation. A variety of factors can cause superficial gastroenteritis in cattle. Diseased cattle often show loss of appetite and soft faeces. Sulfamidine is commonly used in anti-inflammation or mixed into feed for 2 to 3 days.

4. Strengthen stomach and intestines and recuperate function. Using microecological agents to increase beneficial bacteria: feeding microecological agents, such as Yikang XP, Jetbon EME, etc., can rapidly increase the number of beneficial microorganisms in bovine intestines and stomach, secrete beneficial substances and improve immunity. Treatment with drugs: for cattle with food stagnation and dyspepsia, you can take Jianwei Powder, 250 grams per head, with boiling water, waiting for temperature, once a day, twice a day for 3 days; for cattle with nasal mucus, cold pain and cold stomach, Wenpi Powder is taken, the usage is the same as above; for constipated cattle, 300 ml of vegetable oil is given daily for 2 times, and an appropriate amount of artificial salt is added to the drinking water.

5. Rational preparation of feed. Coarse fodder of poor quality, such as wheat straw and rice straw, can be treated by ammoniation or microsilage, and hard forage such as bean straw should be crushed with a kneading machine. In the collocation of concentrate feed, we should pay attention to the addition of salt, trace elements and vitamins, and use quality and reliable additives.

6. Scientific breeding. During the treatment and recuperation of beef cattle, the existing roughage can be fed, and the concentrate should be increased gradually. I can only feed 80% at a time. The straw is fed after washing with water, the cattle are easy to eat and digest, and can remove impurities. The straw after ammoniation, microsilage and silage can not be washed with water. For cattle that drink less water, boil part of the concentrate feed and turn it into gruel to induce cattle to drink a lot of water. Cattle can feed on hay without restriction, let them drink more water as far as possible, so that their atrophic gastrointestinal tract gradually return to normal.
