Key Measures for Prevention and Treatment of Sheep Diseases (1)

(agricultural Wealth Network) ⒈ strengthens daily feeding management

In order to ensure nutritional balance and prevent the lack of nutrients, more attention should be paid to ewes and lambs in the later stage of pregnancy in strict accordance with the standards of feeding and management. Prevent the consumption of moldy forage grass, poisonous grass and pesticide-sprayed forage grass, do not drink stagnant water and sewage, in order to reduce the invasion of parasites and pathogenic microorganisms. The sheep barn should be well ventilated, with sufficient light and suitable temperature. Sheep sheds, appliances and sports grounds should be cleaned and sterilized regularly, especially those used for fattening in different places, must be disinfected after leaving the fence. Clean the disinfection object before disinfection, and then spray disinfectant, otherwise the effect is not good. Sheep feces, sheep house debris should be concentrated accumulation or fermentation treatment, in order to kill the pathogenic microorganisms and parasites in the feces. To ensure the health of sheep and prevent the occurrence of diseases by strengthening feeding management and environmental hygiene.

⒉ regular deworming

In the sheep industry, parasites do great harm. Every year, according to the prevalence of local parasites, the internal and external parasites of sheep should be killed regularly, and drugs are generally used twice a year. Broad-spectrum anthelmintic is selected once in spring, according to the actual situation, the number of deworming can be increased. 10 days after deworming, feces should be collected and fermented immediately to kill eggs and larvae. Deworming in autumn is beneficial to protect the health of sheep, so it should be planned and carried out strictly and meticulously. Albendazole and avermectin have the advantages of high efficiency, low toxicity and broad spectrum. they are effective against common gastrointestinal nematodes, pulmonary nematodes and trematodes, and can dispel many kinds of parasites with mixed infection at the same time.

Timely vaccination of ⒊

Vaccination is one of the important methods to prevent the occurrence and epidemic of infectious diseases and to fight infectious diseases. According to the local infectious disease situation over the years and the current epidemic situation, we should formulate practical and reliable immunization procedures and carry out vaccination according to the plan, so as to protect sheep from infectious diseases. The operation of vaccination should be strict in order to ensure the use effect of epidemic vaccine.

Vaccine immunization can stimulate sheep to produce specific resistance, and it is not easy to be infected with a certain infectious disease. Only planned vaccine immunization can prevent the occurrence of sheep infectious diseases.

Drug prophylaxis is the regular and quantitative addition of drugs to feed or drinking water, which is a preventive measure for some diseases without vaccine. The commonly used drugs are sulfonamides, with a preventive dose of 0.1-0.2% and a therapeutic dose of 0.2-0.5%. Generally, they can be used continuously for 5-7 days, and sometimes can be extended as appropriate. Medicine bathing is carried out every year about 10 days after sheep are sheared in spring. The medicine bath solution can use 0.025-0.03% lindane EC water emulsion.

⒋ strengthens quarantine work

Quarantine is an indispensable part of the policy of "giving priority to prevention". Through quarantine, epidemic diseases can be found in time, prevention and control measures can be taken in time, and local control and eradication can be achieved. Quarantine is to carry out regular health examination and sampling tests on sheep to find sick sheep in time. In order to prevent sick sheep from spreading the disease to healthy sheep, they should be immediately isolated, kept in separate care, and treated. Adhere to the principle of self-breeding and when it is really necessary to introduce breeding sheep, they must be purchased from non-epidemic areas and quarantined by the local animal epidemic prevention supervision department. After entering the field, they are verified by the veterinarian, quarantined and observed in isolation for more than a month. Healthy people can be raised in mixed groups only after deworming, disinfection and supplementary vaccination.
