Select the four misunderstandings of the meat sheep feed

1 Feeding only a single straw yjV China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

Most straws have low protein content, high crude fiber content, coarse texture, high degree of lignification and low digestibility. Feeding straw alone is difficult to meet the energy and protein needs of mutton sheep, and should be fed with other feeds during production. yjV China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

2 long-term feeding bran yjV China feed industry information network - based on feed, service animal husbandry

The energy content of bran is low, the proportion of calcium and phosphorus is seriously deregulated, and the texture is fluffy, and the water absorption is strong. The long-term dry feeding is large, and the drinking water is insufficient, which easily leads to constipation in sheep. Therefore, bran should not be fed to sheep alone for a long time, and must be used together with feed ingredients such as corn. In addition, the bran used as a feed for sheep is preferably puffed, so that the protein utilization rate can be increased from 30% to 99%. yjV China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

3 feed mix is ​​not reasonable yjV China feed industry information network - based on feed, service animal husbandry

When formulating compound feed, refer to the nutrient content of the feed, consider the availability of nutrients, pay attention to whether it contains harmful substances, and whether there is antagonism between the ingredients of various feed ingredients. The utilization rate of feed ingredients is affected by many factors such as the type of livestock, the physiological state of the livestock, the amount of feed, the compatibility of various feed ingredients, and its own structure (raw grain or powder). For example, the use of 5%-6% rapeseed cake in the mixed feed of mutton sheep can play the role of its protein feed ingredients, but the use of a large amount may lead to a decrease in nutrient utilization or poisoning. yjV China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

4 feeding mildew feed yjV China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

Mildew feed has poor palatability, low feed value, and the greater the musty taste, the more obvious the color change, and the more nutrient loss. Meat sheep fed mildewed feed first experienced a decrease in feed intake, followed by poor feed conversion and reduced production performance. Severely mildewed feed can cause acute, chronic or cumulative poisoning in sheep, and can also cause pneumonia, liver cancer and even death. Therefore, feeding of severely mildewed feed should be prohibited and care should be taken to prevent mildew in the feed. Feed storage should be based on the original grain form, and the storage time of the powder should be shortened as much as possible. The warehouse where the feed is stored should be built in a high dry place and then activated after thorough drying. yjV China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry
