How to fatten sheep in Jiangsu fermentation bed in summer?

With the continuous improvement of living standards, consumers are increasingly demanding the safety of meat foods. Lamb has low cholesterol content, high phospholipid content, delicate muscle fiber, moderate fatness, easy digestion, and low hormone residues. It is considered to be an ideal and safe meat food and is favored by consumers. Its price continues to rise. There are opportunities for fattening different sheep.

Jiangsu is located on the eastern coast of the mainland of China, with distinct monsoon characteristics, four distinct seasons, synchronized rain and heat, concentrated rainfall, abundant sunshine, superior natural conditions, and rich climatic resources. Therefore, Jiangsu is hot and rainy in summer, and the weather is sultry. It is necessary to pay attention to proper management when using a fermentation bed to raise sheep. Some of the key points for fattening and fattening techniques for using sheep's nests in Jiangsu Province are summarized below for reference by farmers.

First, the advantages of the sheep industry

Sheep are mainly herbivorous, and their digestibility of crude fiber is 80% or more higher than other livestock and poultry. This is an ideal grain-saving livestock. It is very advantageous to use the gems and dry-fermenting beds for feeding, because the crude fibers produced by the fermentation bed-making strains after fermenting and decomposing the feces can supplement the nutrients not found in the concentrates, and can also be fully absorbed and absorbed by the sheep. Sheep's growth and saving of feed are all very good. Since ancient times, Jiangsu has been a province with developed agriculture, so the region has abundant agricultural and sideline products, especially crop stalks and pancakes. These agricultural and sideline products can be stored for a long period of time as long as they are well-sealed after being fully fermented by the golden treasure microbial fermentation starter. This will provide sufficient feed resources for the development of the sheep industry. In addition, wool and sheepskin are all excellent industrial raw materials.

Second, improve fattening efficiency

In summer, sheep can improve the slaughter rate, meat production rate and commodity rate through short-term fattening. It can also reduce the pressure of lack of forage grass in winter and spring, and can also prevent the occurrence of dropping. From the aspect of fattening effect, the hybrid sheep of the meat breed had better fattening effect than the meat and wool sheep, better than the ordinary sheep; the short-term fast fattening effect of the shelf sheep and the eliminated sheep was better than that of the grazing sheep, and the shelf sheep had better fattening effect than the eliminated sheep. Ram fattening effect is better than the ewes, and lamb fattening due to a short production cycle, rapid growth, high feed remuneration and succulent fresh succulent and other advantages become the main fattening brand.

1, the main points of feeding and management

The pre-management of fattening specialized households is to observe whether the sheep is in good health, whether the feed intake is normal, whether it is used to the management of fattening schedules, the local climate conditions in the season, etc. The feed standards and feed formulas can be timely adjusted according to specific conditions. Sheep that are acquired must be kept separately from the original sheep, and routine deworming, epidemic prevention and disinfection should be carried out. Fattening sheep are best categorized according to their physique before they are fattened with different formulations of forage material. In addition, we must establish a normal feeding system, regular feeding, drinking water, water should be sufficient supply, good water quality. Due to the hot and humid summer weather in Jiangsu, we must pay attention to prevent moldy feed. During the fattening process, observe the individual's and groups' spirits and health status on a daily basis, timely treatment or elimination of diseased sheep and stiff sheep; regularly clean the sheds, clear the material basin, and replace the drinking water. In addition, we must pay attention to the humidity of the fermentation bed, work overturned, more ventilation, to avoid excessive humidity caused by bad bed, dead bed phenomenon.

2, fattening method selection points

Common fattening methods include grazing, fattening, fattening, and fattening. 1 Grazing and fattening. Forage grass growth season suitable for the natural growth of sheep. The summer days in Jiangsu Province are short and long, and grazing uses early grazing, lunch break (cooling and drinking), and late returning to grazing. Go into the sky and go back to the morning and evening when you are grazing, fasting dewy grass. 2 mixed fattening. At the end of summer and autumn, the pasture gradually withered. At this time, the method of fattening combining grazing and supplementation was adopted. While improving grazing, it is necessary to supplement concentrates, quail bricks and water, and also to feed nutritious pastures. 3 feeding fattening. According to the condition of the fattening sheep, the nutrient-rich diet was configured. Especially during the fast fattening period, concentrate feed should account for 45%, roughage (such as hay, silage, etc.) should account for 55%, and the feed should be fed after the roughage.

3, fattening slaughter points

1 lay a good foundation. Lamb pre-weaning before adding a small amount of contaminated feed, rubble bricks and forage, is conducive to the full development of various organs, both to perfect, to lay a good foundation for rapid fattening later. Before formal fattening, it is necessary to strengthen feeding for 1-2 weeks to supplement low-energy, high-protein forages, supplemented by concentrated feeds to ensure that the lambs are physically strong. 2 fast fattening. Prior to rapid fattening of shelf sheep, culling sheep, and lambs over 6 months of age, they must be grouped according to sex, age, and size, in order to supplement high-energy, high-protein feeds, supplemented by concentrates, guarantees The sheep was full of meat before slaughter. 3 second-grade fattening. After age, the growth rate of sheep fattening becomes slower, and the lambs will be castrated. After the sheep is cut, the body functions in a state of stress, and the weight gain is comparable to the lamb fattening. It is necessary to supplement the high-energy, low-protein forage. When the rate of weight gain no longer increases rapidly, it is timely to slaughter. At this time, the fattening effect is the best. If the acquisition of sheep has not added refined feed or mash bricks during the early period of breeding, it must be supplemented with broom bricks after the acquisition. The amount of supplemented concentrate will need to change from less to large. It should be noted that the sheep will not gain weight quickly after supplementing the concentrate feed. Only when the rumen of the sheep adapts to the concentrate feed can it gradually increase in weight; 4 slaughter at the right time. Always observe the physical condition of each sheep, and slaughter them in time to achieve the target weight, so as to obtain the best slaughter rate, carcass weight and economic benefits.

In Jiangsu, summer temperatures are high, rainfall is high, and humidity is relatively large. Therefore, users who use the Jinbao dry-fermenting bed to raise sheep must maintain the fermented mattress materials during the fattening process of the sheep. In due course, it is necessary to turn over frequently and make it more ventilated so that users can achieve a win-win economic benefit.
