Several points for attention in feeding cattle with Green Feed

Green feed is referred to as green material, in the process of breeding, green material is an indispensable high-quality coarse material. Although green feed is of great benefit to the growth of cattle, we still have a lot of points to pay attention to in the process of breeding, otherwise the best green feed will affect the healthy growth of cattle. So today, let's discuss several issues that need to be paid attention to when feeding green feed.

1. Various collocations

Green feed in the process of feeding should pay attention to a variety of collocation, can not use a single green feed. Because a single feed can feed cattle, but it can not meet the various nutritional needs of its growth, so it is difficult to fatten. Then when we feed, we need to cooperate with some green materials with high protein, mineral and vitamin contents, such as vegetable leaves, wild forage and other forage, so the feeding effect will be much better than that of planting forage alone.

2. Prevention of poisoning

When raising cattle with green feed, we should also pay attention to the prevention of poisoning, especially nitrite and hydrocyanic acid poisoning. If we use green vegetables that have been stacked for too long, they will have higher levels of nitrite, and cattle will be poisoned after eating them. There are common farmers in our lives to feed corn seedlings, sorghum seedlings, flax leaves and so on, these plants are actually not suitable to feed cattle, it contains certain cyanoglycosides, then cattle will cause hydrocyanic acid poisoning after eating. Well, if there are conditions, it is best not to feed this kind of green material, of course, if the safety of the feed is improved after processing, fermentation and detoxification, the resources can also be used.

3. Feed the right amount

Feed in the right amount, which means we can't feed too much when feeding. One of the primary reasons is that the young leguminous forage is rich in protein and other nutrients. This green material tastes better, but there is a disadvantage that it contains more saponins. Cattle are prone to rumen flatulence after eating. Well, what we need to do is to feed a reasonable amount of feed according to the size of the cattle and their feed requirements, generally about 20 jin a day for cows and about 24 jin for fattening cattle. Of course, we can also ferment the green material, and then feed it, which can improve the digestibility of the feed, but we should also pay attention to control the dosage.

4. Nutrition collocation

In the process of feeding cattle with green feed, it is important to pay attention to the nutritional collocation of the feed to ensure comprehensive nutrition and improve the utilization rate of the feed. Then the first thing to pay attention to is to select the best harvest when harvesting feed, timely harvest, do not collect poisonous grass, do not cut old grass, do not cut sick grass and cattle do not like to eat grass. The second is to add an appropriate amount of concentrate when feeding green feed, which can improve the palatability of feed and ensure balanced nutrition at the same time.

5. Pay attention to hygiene

We also need to pay attention to feeding hygiene in the process of raising. First of all, the green materials collected should be cleaned and should not be fed casually. After the feed is cleaned, you have to wait for the water on the feed to dry before feeding it. The second is to clean the feeding trough after each feeding, so as not to let the cattle eat the dirty feed on the ground so as not to get infected.
