Measures for heatstroke prevention and cooling in summer farms

The continuous high temperature weather in summer is very unfavorable to livestock and poultry breeding. High temperature not only breeds a large number of bacteria, but also leads to heatstroke death in severe cases, and also leads to heat stress of livestock and poultry, which reduces the disease resistance of livestock and poultry and increases the morbidity and mortality. What heatstroke prevention and cooling measures do farms have in summer?

Measures for heatstroke prevention and cooling in summer farms 1. Adjust the diet formula properly and change the feeding mode.

When the temperature is high, the feed intake of livestock and poultry decreases. Therefore, the nutritional concentration of feed should be appropriately increased, some substances with good digestibility and palatability should be added to the feed, and green feed and wet mixing should be increased to enhance the appetite of livestock and poultry. Maintain a certain feed intake and enhance the body's resistance.

2 Ensure drinking water

Shading and heat insulation measures are taken for the water tank to ensure that livestock and poultry can drink clean and cool drinking water at any time, which is helpful to reduce their body temperature. You can also add ten drops of water, Huoxiang Zhengqi liquid and other drugs to the drinking water to improve the heatstroke prevention and cooling effect.

3. Add heatstroke prevention and cooling drugs

Adding heatstroke prevention drugs such as Bupleurum, Radix Puerariae, Herba Houttuyniae, Radix Isatidis, and Folium Bambusae into feed or drinking water can effectively alleviate or alleviate the adverse reaction of heat stress.

4. Do a good job in the insulation of the fenced house.

It can be covered with materials with good thermal insulation performance, such as sunshade net, widening eaves, building arbor, etc. Reduce sunlight exposure above or around the walled house, so as to achieve the purpose of cooling down.

5. Properly handle emergencies

It is necessary to deal with emergencies. If heatstroke is found in livestock, emergency cooling treatment should be carried out in time, such as shading, blowing, watering and so on. Severe symptoms should be treated.
