Dairy farming mainly through milk production to obtain income, and the high temperature and heat in summer will affect the milk production of dairy cows, the temperature continues to rise, the milk production continues to decline, and the high temperature and humidity are also easy to make dairy cows sick and endanger the health of dairy cows. so summer dairy farming should pay attention to what?

1. Cooling and preventing heatstroke

The high temperature in summer, the fat under the hide of dairy cows is thicker, which is not conducive to its cooling, resulting in poor regulation of body temperature, which is easy to cause heatstroke. Therefore, special attention should be paid to the problem of cooling and preventing heatstroke when raising dairy cows in summer. It is better to build the cowshed from south to north to avoid direct sunlight. You can trim strong shading or shading nets around the cowshed, or build a shelter and plant trees. In short, the temperature should be lowered as much as possible.

2. Keep the enclosure sanitary
The poor sanitary conditions of the cattle house are easy to cause a variety of diseases and endanger the health of dairy cows. The cattle house should be cleaned regularly every day, especially the excreta, to keep the environment of the cattle house clean and hygienic. Dairy cows are contaminated with feces, feed and sewage, which not only affects hygiene, but also affects the metabolism of dairy cows, which is not conducive to the heat distribution of the body. In addition to regular cleaning and sanitation, attention should be paid to disinfection. Some bacteria and microorganisms cannot be eliminated by cleaning. Extremely low concentration trichlorfon liquid medicine can be used to spray cattle houses and the surrounding environment to eliminate mosquitoes and flies and make them in a comfortable environment.
3. Plenty of clean drinking water

When the high temperature, the cow will have a heat stress reaction. The high temperature will consume a lot of water in the cow's body. At this time, if the drinking water is insufficient, the cow's appetite will be weakened, which will produce milk production, and it will also cause the mucous membrane in the cow's body to dry and reduce the resistance to disease. At high temperatures, it is necessary to provide 3-5 times the usual drinking water, and an appropriate amount of salt can also be added to the drinking water, which is conducive to regulating body temperature. In addition, the water quality is unstable, which is easy to cause water deterioration and endanger the health of dairy cows, so it is necessary to change the water 1-2 times a day, and regularly clean the drinking utensils.

4. Supplementtrace element

With high temperature in summer, the milk yield and resistance to diseases of dairy cows are low, and at this time, it is necessary to maintain adequate nutrition to improve milk yield and resistance. Recommended increaseLick brickTo supplement individual differences, to meet the needs of various trace elements of dairy cows, especially in the high-yield period, phosphorus, calcium, zinc, magnesium, iron, cobalt, iodine, manganese, selenium, sodium and other mineral trace elements interaction, which plays a very important role in improving the health index of dairy cows, reproduction rate and milk yield. Magnesium, in particular, prevents heat stress in summer. It is an effective activator in the rumen of dairy cows. It can maintain normal rumen flora, protect rumen health, participate in nerve regulation and calcium and phosphorus together, promote rumen peristalsis, regulate yin and yang ions, prevent heat stress, balance rumen PH value, promote appetite and improve disease resistance.

Rocky Lick BrickSignificant efficacy:

1: Solve the problem of maternal reproduction (for example, long interbirth time, repeated mating infertility, frequent abortion)

2: Extend the peak period of lactation;Increase milk production.

3: Extend the life of the mother; (an 8,000-litre cow loses 60kg of minerals in its milk)

4: Improve the comprehensive health index of dairy cows and reduce the incidence of dairy cows (e. g:mastitis,hoof disease)。

5: Cow pica disappears (gnawing wood, licking hair, licking urine, gnawing plastic) and the fur is smooth.

6: to promote food digestion, improve feed utilization, saving concentrate.
