How to prevent sow miscarriage in summer

The annual pork consumption in our country is the highest of all meat. Now the area of raising pigs is also very large, when raising pigs, the feeding and management of sows is very important. Because sows have a direct impact on the overall development of the herd. After entering the summer, if the management is not good, sows are very prone to miscarriage. So how can we prevent sows from having a miscarriage in summer? The following editor will give you a brief introduction, let's have a look!

1. Culture environment

After entering the high temperature environment in summer, pregnant sows can not effectively balance their body heat, so it is easy to cause a variety of pathological changes, leading to abortion. Therefore, we should provide a comfortable growth environment for sows in summer. Some materials with good thermal insulation can be used to cover the pigsty to block the thermal radiation of the sun, and it can also effectively reduce the temperature in the pigsty. Then we should pay attention to ensure that the pig house has good ventilation capacity, set up vents, exhaust fans, etc., to promote air convection, reduce sow body temperature and reduce abortion.

2. Feeding management

Sows must pay attention to feeding management after pregnancy, especially in the period of high temperature in summer. Ensure that sows have adequate nutritional intake. When feeding pregnant pigs in summer, pay attention to the week before pregnancy. Do a good job in embryo protection, promote embryo development and avoid abortion. And strengthening the nutrition of sows during pregnancy can improve the growth and development ability of sows and enhance the physique of young pigs. Therefore, we must pay attention to meet the needs of sows for protein, minerals and other nutrients in summer.

3. Drinking water management

As the temperature increases in summer, the rate of water evaporation in sows will also increase. If water is not fed in time, sows are prone to lack of water, which will have a great impact on the development of embryos. Therefore, we must pay attention to a large amount of water supply in summer, and the sink should be in a state of water at all times. Summer can properly drink and feed cold water, can reduce body temperature as soon as possible, and can also promote feed digestion and absorption. It can also get effective help for the pregnancy and fetal protection of sows.

4. Disease prevention and treatment

Sows are also very susceptible to disease in summer, so we should also pay attention to the prevention and treatment of various diseases that can easily lead to sow miscarriage. First of all, it is necessary to control the environmental hygiene of the pig house, disinfect the pig house regularly and reduce the pathogen. Then we should also pay attention to the preservation of the feed, because the feed is very easy to deteriorate in summer. To control the preservation environment of feed, do not feed moldy and deteriorated feed, otherwise sows are very easy to be poisoned, resulting in abortion.
