Although many people now find pig raising a challenge, in reality, it can be relatively easy as long as you pay attention to daily management and pay attention to details. Through refined management, the occurrence of diseases and epidemics can be effectively prevented and controlled, thus laying a solid foundation for the prosperity of the pig industry. In short, the meticulous attention to detail of day-to-day management is the key to the success of pig farming.
First, we must insist on self-breeding and self-rearing to prevent the infection of exogenous pigs.
Self-breeding and self-rearing in pig farms can effectively prevent diseases brought by exogenous pigs. In the process of raising pigs, the inflow of diseases and epidemics is largely brought by foreign pigs, such as colibacillosis in pigs: piglet yellow dysentery, piglet dysentery, piglet red dysentery, piglet edema, etc., pig viral infectious diseases: pig epidemic diarrhea, cold, swine fever, foot-and-mouth disease, etc., the incubation period of these diseases is relatively long, and it is difficult to distinguish from the appearance before piglets enter the pig farm. Therefore, pig farms should try to avoid exogenous pigs from entering the pig farm. In doing so, pig farms need to raise breeding pigs and breed piglets, which may bring some management costs to pig farms, but in the long run, not only can effectively control the spread of diseases, but also help to cultivate excellent breeds and improve the quality of fattening pigs through self-breeding, thereby reducing the cost of pig raising.
2. Insist on cleaning the pigsty and pig house every day.
Pigs are very clean animals, and the environmental hygiene of pig farms is very closely related to the occurrence of diseases. The dirty environment is conducive to the breeding and spread of bacteria and viruses, so it is necessary to keep the pig house, activity venues and pig utensils dry and clean, and to clean the feces and sewage and sewage of the enclosure and activity venues every day, and use the cleaned sewage and sewage as organic fertilizer in a timely manner. The conventional practice is to build a large biogas tank and septic tank, and enter the sewage, feces, and sewage into the biogas tank and septic tank, and timely treat the germs through fermentation and sterilization to avoid secondary transmission.
3. Do a good job in epidemic prevention in pig farms.
Immunization can stimulate pigs to produce specific antibodies, so that pigs are immune to the corresponding infectious diseases. Epidemic prevention is the most important measure for effective control and prevention of infectious diseases. Commonly used vaccines for epidemic prevention are: swine fever attenuated vaccine for the prevention of swine fever, live swine erysipelas vaccine for the prevention of swine erysipelas, live swine bactocida vaccine for the prevention of swine lung disease, live vaccine for piglet paratyphoid, live vaccine for piglet septicaemic streptococcus, inactivated vaccine for piglet red dysentery, inactivated vaccine for porcine parvovirus, and inactivated vaccine for swine foot-and-mouth disease type O.
Fourth, do a good job in the strict management of pig farm breeding personnel.
Pig farm breeding personnel in and out of the pig farm, to strictly implement the disinfection system, at the same time, but also pay attention to the regular disinfection of the personnel's clothes, rubber boots, shoes and hats, gloves, tools, it is best to clean and disinfect once a week, the clothes, shoes and hats of the breeding personnel can not be taken out of the pig farm; The pork eaten by the breeders should be selected from the pork of their own pig farm, and the pork of other pig farms should not be eaten.
5. Pay attention to the elimination of rats, mosquitoes, and flies to prevent the spread of diseases.
The epidemic and spread of the disease are largely related to rats, mosquitoes and flies, which are the hosts and carriers of many pathogens, and can cause the spread of diseases such as swine lung disease, piglet paratyphoid fever, foot-and-mouth disease, and infectious blistering disease through the transmission of mice, mosquitoes and flies. Therefore, it is necessary to clean up the garbage, sundries, grass piles, puddles, etc. inside and outside the pig farm in time to prevent the breeding of rats, mosquitoes and flies, especially to do a good job of insecticide and rodents, and insecticides such as trichlorfon, dichlorvos, malathion and other insecticides can be used to kill mosquitoes and flies, but attention should be paid to prevent contamination of feed. It can be used to kill rodents with low-toxicity and high-efficiency rodenticides such as rodenticide anti-rat sodium salt and rodenticide speed.
Sixth, the pig farm as far as possible all in and out.
When the pig farm fattening pigs are slaughtered, they should try to do all in and all out, after the fattening pigs are slaughtered as a whole, they can thoroughly clean the residue of the pig house, and carry out strict disinfection, you can use 2% caustic soda solution, and you can also use commonly used disinfectants such as: lime water, bleaching powder, peracetic acid, etc. alternately disinfected. Eliminate some potential sources of infection in this batch of pigs. At the same time, all in and all out, can unify the ingredients, but also conducive to the overall growth of pigs, reduce the cost of feeding.
Seventh, the pig farm should try to avoid the stimulation of some undesirable factors.
The courage of pigs is very small, and the stress response is very intense, such as the sudden firecrackers in the pig farm, the sudden strong light irradiation, the sudden roar of large machinery, and the sudden loud sound **, etc., which may cause the pig's diarrhea, fever, and decreased eating ability, etc., resulting in a decrease in body immunity, causing the occurrence of other diseases, and serious will also lead to poor growth and development of pigs, which greatly increases the cost of raising pigs.
8. Vehicles that purchase pigs must not be allowed to enter the pig farm.
The purchase of pig vehicles wanders between the various pig farms, with a large number of pathogens and microorganisms, even if the most stringent disinfection, can not ensure the spread of pathogens and microorganisms, therefore, when the pigs are slaughtered, the pig farm should use pig transport tools to transport the pigs to the acquisition vehicles outside the pig farm, and at the same time, they must also strictly disinfect their vehicles to ensure that the invasion of exogenous pathogens is cut off.
9. Do a good job in the disinfection of pig farms.
Disinfection is mainly to eliminate pathogenic microorganisms in the environment and prevent the spread of epidemics by cutting off the route of infection. Pig farms should establish a strict regular disinfection system, and regularly disinfect the pig houses, sites, manure and sewage in the pig farm.
The first is the daily disinfection of the pig farm. On the basis of cleaning the enclosure every day, pay attention to disinfecting the cleaning tools once a day, and treat the feces and sewage produced by pigs harmlessly. The farrowing room of the pig farm should be thoroughly disinfected once before the sows to be farrowed enter the farrowing room. Straw mats soaked in disinfectant should be placed around the sick pig house and isolation house and at the entrance and exit for disinfection. The import and export of the pig farm should strictly implement the disinfection system, and all personnel and vehicles entering and leaving the pig farm should be strictly disinfected with ultraviolet light and disinfection pools.
The second is to thoroughly disinfect the pig farm every six months. Carry out routine cleaning first, then rinse with water, spray with disinfectant to disinfect, commonly use 10% 20% lime milk, 10% bleaching powder, 02% peracetic acid, 05%~1.0% bacterial and toxic enemy disinfection. The closed pig house can also be fumigated and disinfected for 24 hours, and then ventilated for 24 hours.
10. Pay attention to the clinical symptoms of pigs.
Many diseases will have clinical symptoms in the early stage, timely observation of the clinical symptoms of pigs, can predict the disease status of pigs in advance, to provide sufficient time for timely development. The first is to observe body temperature and breathing. The normal body temperature of a pig is 38 to 395 degrees if the body temperature is over 395 degrees, and shortness of breath and other symptoms, it is a pathological phenomenon; The second is to observe the diet and water intake. The reduction of pig feed or even the cessation of food is generally a pathological phenomenon, but it should be distinguished from the reduction of diet when the sow is in heat; Again, observe the feces. Whether there is diarrhea, diarrhea, constipation, bloody diarrhea and other phenomena; Then there is the observation of the mental state of the pig. If the pig has dull eyes, depression, physical tiredness, drowsiness and other phenomena are all manifestations of disease.
In short, in pig farms, it is important to carefully implement the following ten management points: strict disinfection, hygiene, strengthening epidemic prevention, closely monitoring the health status of pigs, optimizing the breeding environment, and strictly controlling the entrance gates. With these measures, the invasion of external pathogens can be effectively blocked, and at the same time, bacteria and microorganisms inside the farm can be eliminated in a timely manner. In addition, proper immunization and close observation of the clinical manifestations of pigs can help to respond quickly to diseases and infectious diseases at an early stage and eliminate them in the bud. Creating a superior growth environment for pigs not only helps them grow healthily, but also paves the way for farmers to realize their dreams of becoming rich through pig farming. In short, with careful management, pig farming is not difficult, and success and wealth are within reach.
