Measures to ensure the safety of long-distance trafficking in pigs

In the process of long-distance trafficking, pigs are easily affected by stress factors such as cold and heat, hunger, water shortage, fatigue, crowding, trauma and so on, resulting in massive consumption of nutrients and decline of immunity, resulting in the occurrence of various diseases, which should be prevented.

Diseases easy to occur in pigs during transportation

1. Respiratory diseases such as severe colds, bronchitis and bronchopneumonia.

two。 Pig digestive function disorder, the occurrence of stomach relaxation, food accumulation and other digestive system diseases.

Response measures

1. Before transportation, the local veterinary department should be asked to strictly inspect and quarantine and issue a certificate prohibiting the mixing of frail pigs and sick pigs.

two。 Carry the right amount of digestible feed, preferably twice a day. In order to reduce the harm of stress reaction to pigs during transportation, an appropriate amount of electrolytic multi-dimensional, glucose or rehydration salt can also be added to drinking water.

3. Pigs should not be overfed before loading. At the beginning of transportation, you should control the slow speed, wait for the pig to adapt, then drive at the normal speed, and prevent emergency braking.

4. The situation of pigs should be checked frequently during transportation, especially when feeding, and problems should be dealt with in time.

5. Check the condition of the car and communication equipment before departure, and all kinds of certificates must be fully carried.

6. Relevant drugs and equipment should be carried along the way of trafficking. Antipyretic analgesics: analgin, aminopyrine, claudication, etc.; antibiotics: penicillin, streptomycin, etc.; emergency drugs: sodium caffeine, epinephrine, atropine, hemostatic powder, etc.; stomach-strengthening drugs: artificial salt, betel nut, etc.; sedatives: Mianning, Jing Songling. Instruments and topical drugs: syringes, hemostatic forceps, alcohol, iodine tincture, anti-inflammatory powder, etc.
