Pay attention to those problems when buying dairy cows.
We all know that cows are mainly used to produce milk, and the higher the milk production of cows, the more money they can make. Now there are many varieties of cows, and there are breeding in many places. But the annual output of milk is still far from meeting the needs of the market. The most fundamental reason is that farmers did not choose the right cows. Well, today, the editor will teach you a few things that you need to pay attention to when choosing cows, hoping to help you.
1. Variety
There are many varieties of dairy cows, and there will be certain differences in the living habits, milk production and reproductive capacity of different breeds of dairy cows. It is so certain that the purpose of raising dairy cows is to make money, not to be bored for fun. So we need to choose a good breed before breeding. At present, the best milk yield in China's market is our common black and white dairy cows, but there are still many farms in which cows are not purebred, so we had better go to that kind of large-scale farm to choose and buy breeding cows. at the same time, if you are not assured, you can ask professionals to check to ensure that the purchased cows are authentic black and white cows, so as to ensure milk production.
2. Quality
After the breed of the cow is determined, you need to check the quality of the cow. If you are not familiar with the characteristics of the cow, you can consult the relevant experts or let it go forward together to choose and purchase. In general, it is necessary to carefully observe the cow's body shape, limbs, forequarters, hindquarters, corners, muscles, abdomen, chest, fur, neck, waist and back, followed by the cow's design and color is also more important. The most important thing is to see if the cow's breasts are up to standard, and if everything appears to be normal, then a choice can be made.
3. Age
When buying a cow, we should also pay attention to the age of the cow. We usually do not choose adult cows or cows that have been producing milk for several years. The milk yield of such cows is not high, and you do not know how others are fed. Do not have a comprehensive understanding of its physique and other aspects, which increases the difficulty of breeding, and secondly, the milk yield of such cows is also decreasing year by year. We can't make any money at all, so we'd better choose calves or mature cows, which are the best.
4. Quarantine
Finally, when you buy a cow, you also need to pay attention to the quarantine of the cow, you can't buy the cow in the epidemic area, and then you need the seller to show the relevant necessary quarantine certificate and other health examination certificate when you buy the cow. If everything is up to the standard, you can buy it. What the editor would also like to say here is that when choosing and buying cows, we had better focus on buying, not buying bulk, which is difficult to manage uniformly, and can not guarantee the quality of dairy cows to the greatest extent.
