How to solve the causes of diarrhea in suckling piglets in winter

Piglets have diarrhea

In recent winter, the temperature drops, coupled with frequent rainy days, high air humidity, suckling piglets are prone to diarrhea. Through the investigation of several pig farms, it is found that the main reasons for diarrhea of suckling piglets are as follows:

First, nutritional diarrhea. The solution is to reduce the feed intake of sows for 1-2 days, while ensuring that sows do not have constipation. In addition, oral antibiotics can be given to piglets to inhibit the further development of bacteria.

Second, inappropriate temperature and humidity cause diarrhea. If the temperature is too low or the air humidity is too high, it will cause diarrhea in suckling piglets. The solution is to keep warm and properly ventilated to keep the air dry.

Third, bacterial diarrhea. It is generally caused by Escherichia coli and is generally treated with antibiotics. If necessary, E. coli vaccine is injected into sows within 2-3 weeks before secretion.

Fourth, viral diarrhea. Viral diarrhea is not easy to treat, generally should be injected with infectious gastrointestinal vaccine or rotavirus vaccine.

Fifth, parasitic diarrhea. It is caused by coccidiosis, do a good job in the environmental hygiene of pig farms and do a good job of deworming.

In recent years, the number of bacteria and viruses harmful to pigs has increased significantly, many of which can make piglets diarrhea, vaccine can only play a supplementary role, can not fundamentally solve the problem. From a long-term point of view, we should adopt stricter pig farm management measures; strictly control the number of introduced pig farms, ensure that pig farms are strictly isolated from nearby farms, and strictly abide by the full-in-all-out management mode of delivery and care. Constantly improve the hygiene standards of the whole field, these are the rules that must be observed.
