Grazing and feeding techniques of bred cattle

The breeding area of cattle in our country is very large. When raising cattle, cattle go through many periods. The breeding period is one of the most important periods in the whole growth period of cattle. The cattle in this period are called breeding cattle, and the management is very important when raising and breeding cattle. But also to do a good job of grazing and raising, so how to graze and raise breeding cattle? Let's take a look at the grazing and feeding techniques of breeding cattle with Xiaobian.

1. Grazing in groups

When grazing adult cattle, attention should be paid to grazing in groups according to the sex of breeding cattle. If grazing together, random mating may occur during grazing. Random mating may lead to inbreeding, reduce the growth performance of the next generation, poor physique of calves, weak disease resistance and so on. And if the mating time of the cow is too early, it will have a great impact on the breeding value of the cow and reduce the birth rate of the cow. These problems will seriously reduce the breeding efficiency of adult cattle, so if the number of cattle is large, grazing must be grouped when grazing.

2. Grazing density

When we are grazing and raising cattle, we should also pay attention to strictly controlling the grazing density. The specific density standard should be adjusted according to the area of grassland and the growth of forage grass. If it is in the mountains, because there are few forage resources, the number of cattle in each group should not exceed 50. On the contrary, if it is in an area rich in forage resources, then each group should be limited to about 200. Reasonable feeding density can improve production efficiency for large herds, while calves have the advantage of easy management.

3. Grazing time

Then we should also pay attention to the grazing time. When grazing, you must not graze when you turn green in the cold winter and spring. Because in the cold winter, not only the temperature is low, forage resources are also very scarce. On the other hand, if it is in the spring when it is just turning green, the cattle are prone to run green when grazing. This will not only reduce the speed of breeding cattle, but also do great damage to the pasture. The best time for grazing each year is to wait until the grass grows to about 10 centimeters.

4. Pay attention to supplementary feeding

When breeding cattle are grazed and raised, supplementary feeding is also very important. Especially in spring and early winter, supplementary feeding must be done well. It should usually be carried out when the herd is resting, which not only will not affect the normal growth of the herd, but also can improve the utilization of forage resources. In supplementary feeding, we should pay attention to the supplement of mineral feed, because when cattle are grazing, the intake of minerals is relatively small. It has a great impact on the weight gain of the herd, so you can put some mineral licking bricks in the barn to let the bred cattle eat freely and avoid the phenomenon of mineral deficiency.

The above is a brief introduction to the grazing and feeding techniques of bred cattle. That's all for today's introduction. This article is for reference only. I hope it can help you all.
