Autumn is usually the busiest season for raising cattle, either for sale all the year round or to prepare for farming in the coming year. At this time, the temperature slowly returned to a more appropriate stage, and the following is the cold winter, a variety of winter needs should also begin to buy! So what do you need to prepare for raising cattle in autumn? What are we going to do?

1. Deworming

The first thing to do must be deworming, at this time because the temperature is just right, many parasites dormant for a long time waiting for this time to break out, so deworming is very important. The deworming here includes two aspects, one is the barn and the other is cattle, a two-pronged approach can ensure the healthy growth of cattle. The barn can be disinfected by spray, then washed with clean water, and then put in after it is dry. Cattle are disinfected first by cleaning the surface with 0.05% phoxim EC water solution, followed by feeding tablets such as albendazole for internal deworming prevention, or by injection. Specific selection according to the common local pests, strictly according to the veterinarian's knowledge.

2. Forage reserve

In the face of the long winter, the reserve of forage is very important. After all, there are not many places to buy and sell in winter, so it is always good to prepare yourself. Daily forage is mainly rice stalk, corn straw and so on, the quantity is stored according to the number of hay, not according to wet, after all, wet forage is much heavier. Secondly, feed and the like had better be ready by the end of October, and if it is later, one is the problem of transportation and the other is the question of price. Other forages are selected according to their own local crops.

3. Epidemic prevention

Diseases such as bovine foot-and-mouth disease and bovine pasteurellosis are much more likely to occur in cattle in autumn, and many cattle farmers fall on this every year. There are corresponding vaccines and treatments for such diseases, and the injection should be staggered with the time of deworming, with an interval of about 2 weeks to avoid discomfort in cattle. Secondly, if the nearby veterinarian is far away, you can buy some prevention and treatment drugs to reserve, so that you have more time to go to the doctor when you get sick, so as not to be caught off guard.

4. Buy breeder cattle

At this time, it is time to consider the calf production in the coming year, when there is a lack of breeding cattle or cows, you can choose to buy them. However, adult cattle should pay more attention to whether they are normal or not. Every year, many people sell some unqualified cows or breeding cattle at this time to get a high price, so they will lose a lot in the coming year. You can spend more time to visit the market, do not rush to buy, this will last a long time, we will have time to choose. Fear that the good will be bought, do not worry, a lot of cattle trading market will be different people come every day, not everyone has time on the same day.
