Some common mistakes in dairy farming

The dairy breed of yellow cattle has been selected and bred for a long time, and its milk is nutritious and suitable for our long-term drinking. now many dairy products are made from it, and the economic benefit is higher than that of ordinary beef cattle. But many farmers fall into a lot of misunderstandings in raising, often leading to poor income, the following pro-agricultural network for everyone to explain these major misunderstandings in detail.

1. Be eager for success

Many farmers in order to make a profit as soon as possible, often early breeding, early milking, before the cow is 18 months in a hurry to breed, which often leads to dystocia, serious will also lead to premature senility. The correct mating time should be about 18 months, that is, a year and a half, when the cow's weight reaches 400kg, so as to maintain the good nature of the calf. In addition, milking is also paying attention to the time. Cows can produce milk in about 300 days, and many farmers start milking as soon as the cow begins to produce milk, which will lead to greater nutrition consumption and difficulty in conception, and the quality and output of milk production will be lower in the future. Milking must be in the lactation period of the cow, and there should be a certain dry period, so that the cow can recover its physical strength and nutrition in a certain period of time.

2. Do not pay attention to sanitary disinfection

After years of cultivation, the cow has strong environmental adaptability and disease resistance, so many farmers do not pay attention to its sanitary environment, but in fact, the cow is very sensitive to the environment. If the cow body is not wiped for a long time, it will hinder its metabolism and directly affect the health, milk yield and milk quality of the cow. In addition, its breeding site is not clean, ventilation is not good, not dry, long-term dark and humid environment, these reasons will cause these conditions.

3. Improper feeding

In order to reduce the breeding cost, many rural farmers often use the traditional feeding mode and do not feed silage or intensive feeding, which will lead to the lack of a lot of nutrients and malnutrition in dairy cows. And large farmers for you convenient and fast, speed up the growth of cows, often feed fine feeding, which will also lead to overnutrition, the emergence of many metabolic diseases, feeding should pay attention to balanced nutrition.

4. Long-term tethering

In rural areas, many farmers often use traditional farming methods. In order to save worry and effort, cows are tied to wooden stakes regardless of season to limit their activity space, which can easily lead to dystocia, poor estrus, poor physique and so on. In cow breeding, cows should be given some exercise every day to promote their metabolism, increase feed intake, improve immunity and disease resistance, and maintain the normal fecundity of dairy cows.

The above are several common misunderstandings of cow farming brought by the pro-farming network for you. I hope it can help the friends who are raising or want to raise more relevant agricultural knowledge. Please pay attention to the pro-agricultural network.
