According to the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, in December 2023, a total of 22 major animal diseases were reported across the country, and the number of cases was reported9.10 thousand, the number of deaths1.50 thousand
December 2023 National Major Animal Disease Reporting Statistical Table showsChicken coccidiosis, porcine epidemic diarrhea, pasteurellosisYesNumber of caseswithNumber of deathsThe most abundant 3 diseases. among othersPasteurellosisIt is a common disease of cattle and sheep, and I am afraid that it will become the biggest killer of cattle and sheep!
Acute infectious disease caused by Pasteurella multocida. PerformanceHigh fever, pneumonia, acute gastroenteritis, and extensive bleeding from internal organs
Bovine pasteurellosis is an acute infectious disease caused by the bacterium multocida (also Pasteurella haemolytica). Bacteria are present in the tissues, body fluids, secretions and excretions of sick animals, and are infected through the digestive tract and respiratory tract. Healthy livestock also carry bacteria in the upper respiratory tract and tonsils.
WhenWhen the resistance of animals is reduced due to cold, stuffy, humid, crowded, poor ventilation, fatigue transportation, feed mutation, nutritional deficiency, parasitic diseases and other adverse conditions, it can develop its own disease
Pasteurella has a weak ability to survive in the natural environment, surviving only 2 3 days in dry air, 6 10 days in blood, excretion or secretions, but 1 6 months in rotting corpses;Death in a few minutes in direct sunlight, and death immediately in high temperatures;The general disinfectant can be killed, and it is sensitive to sulfonamides and oxytetracycline. The incubation period of bovine pasteurosis is 2-5 days.
There are four types of the disease, namely:Septicamic, edematous, pneumonicwithNeurotype
Septicamic type: Fever (41-42) at the beginning of the illness, depression, rapid pulse, muscle tremor, nasal dryness, conjunctival flushing, groaning, abdominal pain, diarrhea, sometimes blood in the nostrils, death within 1 day.
Edematous type: Due to inflammatory edema under the skin of the larynx, neck and chest, the sick animal has fever, difficulty breathing, tongue sticking out of the mouth, salivation, cyanosis of the oral mucosa, and finally suffocation to death.
Pneumonic type: Sick cattle have difficulty breathing, dry cough, and foamy, purulent fluid from the nostrils. Bronchial breath sounds and vesicular murmurs are heard on auscultation of the chest wall, and sometimes a friction rub may be heardPercussion has a solid sound area, and the animal is distressed. The duration of the disease is 3-6 days.
Neurotype: Manifested as playing with the tongue, gnawing, biting, arching and other abnormal phenomena, a few manifested as loss of appetite (not eating), hyperactivity, and some foaming at the mouth, salivating 5 15cm long.

The above "What exactly is pasteurellosis?".How to" content excerpts freelyHuang Zhengyong, technical director of Beijing Zemu Jiuyuan Biotechnology Research Institute, took the lead in editing and published by China Agricultural PressBooks on breeding techniques——"100 Questions and Answers on Beef Cattle Breeding".
This book introduces more than 200 common problems in beef cattle breeding in the form of questions and answers, covering various aspects such as breed selection, feeding management, nutrition matching, breeding and fattening, disease prevention and control, pasture planning, etc., and is praised as "a practical guide to beef cattle breeding" by the majority of breeding friends.
