Garlic is the best green feed additive.

Garlic is a feed additive to control mold and produce green food in summer. It is the first choice for controlling drug residues. The green feed additive has a wide source and low price. Its characteristics are introduced as follows:

1. Biological characteristics of garlic:

Garlic (ALLiumsativum), also known as Hu garlic, independent garlic, according to the color of the outer skin, the solid bulb is crescent-shaped, is a natural perennial herb growing vegetables, with a strong smell of garlic and antibiotics similar to medicinal value, but without the side effects of antibiotic drug residues, is a kind of spicy vegetable with strong safety, wide practicability and multi-source alternative antibiotics.

1.2. Classification of garlic: can be divided into white-skinned garlic and purple-skinned garlic, purple-skinned garlic is more spicy than white-skinned garlic.

1.3 function of garlic: warm and pungent, such as stomach meridian, warming stomach and activating qi, detumescence and detoxification, eliminating inflammation and kidney, tonifying spleen to treat low back pain, killing insects to treat diarrhea.

2. The pharmacology of garlic:

2.1 Anti-inflammatory effect: garlic has a special pharmacological effect thousands of years ago, and garlic has been developed into a feed additive in recent years.

The capsaicin in garlic can stimulate the oral mucosa and taste buds to stimulate sensory nerves to increase appetite. When chickens lose their appetite in summer, 1% more allicin can restore their appetite and increase their food intake.

2.2 conversion of protein, the main component of garlic is diallyl trisulfide, which can decompose protein and fat in the intestinal tract, promote cell assimilation, produce glutathione, resist cell necrosis and convert protein, not only improve resistance, but also increase the laying rate of laying hens. If 3% garlic powder is added to the feed of laying hens, the laying rate can be increased by more than 15%.

2.3 antidiarrheal effect: dipropylenediene vulcanization and physical energy differentiation and regression of hot pain dysfunction in red and swollen parts of garlic. When enteritis and diarrhea occur in pigs, 100 ml garlic tincture can be cured twice.

2.4 Antibacterial activity of garlic: the active ingredient in garlic is diallyl trisulfide, which can effectively prevent and cure a variety of common bacterial infectious diseases, such as staphylococci, Pasteurella typhimurium, Shigella dysenteriae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, etc. used in cattle, pigs, broilers, ducks, fish and some special economic animals, it can achieve ideal antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and growth-promoting effect, and is a broad-spectrum natural antibacterial additive.

2.5 the role of mildew, in the summer of mold reproduction, 1% garlic powder mixed into feed can prevent the reproduction and insecticidal effect of Aspergillus flavus, Candida albicans, Fusarium and other molds. 2% garlic powder was added to the feed of rabbits, chickens and pigs for two weeks to prevent the occurrence of small intestinal coccidiosis and liver coccidiosis. Improve the disease resistance of animals.

3, the utilization of garlic:

3.1 Ancient Chinese veterinarians made garlic tincture: it is used to treat donkeys, mules, horses, cattle, sheep, pig abdominal pain and diarrhea.

3.2 garlicin was extracted ten years ago, allicin is volatile, which is not resistant to high temperature, and special techniques such as coating are used to make allicin resistant to high temperature and maintain garlic for a long time, which is suitable for products that need to be granulated at high temperature. There are 15% and 25% packaging, and the content of diallyl trisulfide in garlic is adjusted to more than 60%.

3.3 in recent years, garlic powder premix has been developed for feed additives such as chicken, duck, goose, rabbit, fish, pig and so on. And according to the actual situation, it is reasonably selected to prevent fish myxococcus, Vibrio anguillarum and monosporium, and to treat rotten Gill, enteritis and red skin disease.

3.4 garlic oil: extract directly from fresh garlic, about 3 kg of garlic oil can be extracted from 1 ton of garlic. The garlic oil mainly composed of diallyl trisulfide has a purity of 98%. Garlic oil added to the carrier to dilute to make powder, it becomes a certain content of allicin preparation. The use dose of allicin is low, generally 50 mg / kg body weight ~ 100 mg / kg body weight has a better effect. Its price is also relatively low, which is a fraction to a tenth of the production cost of some imported growth-promoting additives.

Garlic contains a compound called ajoene, which can dilute the blood, soften blood vessels, reduce blood lipids and prevent blood clotting, which can prevent the occurrence of cerebral thrombosis and myocardial infarction. Especially in the case of sudden death syndrome and acute death of unknown causes in meat-eating chickens, adding 2% garlic powder to the feed for 4 days can control the development of the disease and prevent death.

4.1 there are no taboos.

Allicin can be used in combination with other additives (including a variety of antibiotics) without antagonism. Allicin also has no drug withdrawal restrictions and can be used in laying hens, dairy cows, fish and some pre-market products, which is harmless to human cells.

4.2 Security.

Allicin has no accumulation effect in animals and has very low residue, and the content of allicin has not been detected in muscle and viscera for a long time, so it will not cause harm to human beings and animals, and allicin will not cause poisoning, carcinogenicity and deformity. therefore, it is a safe additive.

4.3 No drug resistance was found.

The use of antibiotics is easy to produce drug resistance, and the effect decreases gradually, and it is necessary to switch to other drugs after using for a period of time. Allicin is a natural antibacterial substance. So far, no allicin-resistant strains have been found in animals and wild strains, so allicin can be used for a long time with high safety, which is also called "reassuring additive".

5. It has more than three effects of one medicine.

Having multiple effects is one of the major characteristics of garlic. Garlic can not only prevent and cure a variety of common diseases and promote animal growth, but also is an effective flavoring agent. Strong garlic flavor can effectively cover up the bad smell of rapeseed meal, meat and bone meal and other raw materials in feed, and improve the palatability of feed. stimulate blood circulation, expand blood vessels [5], promote hormone production, increase animal feed intake. The special flavor of allicin can also strongly attract fish, and can be used as an attractant for aquatic feed to attract fish to feed. Garlic can enhance the special flavor of chicken and duck meat and improve the meat taste of factory farmed chickens, ducks, geese and pigs. Allicin can inhibit coccidia, mold poisoning and cholera in laying hens in summer.

6, the dosage of garlic preparation.

The use of garlic preparations should be added according to the needs of animals according to different body weight or feed percentage. commonly used garlic tincture, with a small dosage, up to 300 ml, is used for large livestock such as horses, mules and cattle, but rarely for poultry. Allicin often has a specification of 5%, 25%, or garlic powder, which is often used as an additive in summer feed for broilers and laying hens, adding 2% per ton of feed. Garlic oil is often used in fish and shrimp feed. It is appropriate to add 50ml 100g per ton of feed.

In a word, garlic has a wide range of sources, simple cultivation, great development potential and convenient feeding. Garlic is an ideal feed additive with no drug residue, no drug resistance and no pollution. It can prevent mildew, inhibit bacteria, kill insects, reduce cholesterol, promote blood circulation, improve resistance and promote growth. Under the condition of rich resources, the use of chemical synthesis technology to extract the effective components of garlic, the production of allicin products, and then into a certain effective content of commercial allicin, easy to use, less dosage, is the most common way. It is not only a way to solve the poverty of agriculture, rural areas and farmers, but also an effective measure to solve the residue of food and drugs of animal origin, to compete in the international trade market, and to develop the food safety brand of poultry and livestock products in China.
