Publish Time: 2023-03-11 Origin: Phoenix Breeding Equipment
It is relatively easy to establish a chicken farm, but how to standardize and industrialize the industry after the establishment of a chicken farm so that it can generate profits and benefits is a very challenging thing. Next, let's take a look at the issues that need to be paid attention to in the management of chicken farms.
1. Scientifically select the site
The chicken farm site conforms to the local overall planning, and is more than 500 meters away from drinking water sources, residential areas, main traffic arteries, other livestock and poultry farms, and livestock and poultry slaughtering, processing, and trading places. A place with flat and dry terrain, leeward and sunny, well ventilated, sufficient water source, good water quality, stable power supply and convenient transportation.
2. Reasonably divide the area
The division of the entire area of the chicken farm should conform to the production process and poultry epidemic prevention requirements, and the office and living areas, production areas, and manure treatment areas should be reasonably arranged according to functions. The boundaries among the districts are clear and easy to communicate with, and they are separated by walls and green belts. It is best to have a spray disinfection device at the entrance of the production area. All personnel must change clothes and shoes and disinfect when entering and leaving. The clean road and polluted road in the production area are strictly separated, and the flow of personnel, poultry and goods adopts a single direction. Walls and anti-epidemic ditches should be built around the site, and duty rooms should be set up at the entrance and exit of large-scale sites.
3. Selection of fine varieties
Choose poultry breeds according to local conditions, and select excellent poultry breeds to obtain the greatest economic benefits.
4. Scientific construction of chicken coops
The building of the chicken house is solid, capable of heat preservation, and has the ability to resist natural disasters (typhoon, rain and snow, etc.). It strives to be advanced and reasonable, warm in winter and cool in summer, light-transmitting and ventilated, convenient for daily operation and mechanization, and convenient for scientific feeding and management. . In terms of building facilities, the main roads and the ground in the house should be hard with a thickness of at least 50 cm, and the functional facilities for preventing birds, rodents and insects should be improved. A certain distance should be maintained between adjacent poultry houses, and the distance between two adjacent vertical walls more than 7 meters, no less than 9 meters between end walls, and no less than 3 meters from the fence. between poultry houses and poultry houses can be planted with lawns, medicinal materials and greening.
5. Equipped with breeding facilities
If conditions permit, try to use high quality automatic drinking systems and automatic feeding systems.Layer farms are equipped with lighting equipment, large poultry farms are equipped with storage tanks or storage warehouses, and advanced production facilities such as fans and wet curtain cooling mechanical ventilation systems are used. In order to give full play to the poultry production level. At the same time, improve the supporting facilities for epidemic prevention, including fences, greening, ditches and rivers and other epidemic prevention isolation belts. Equipped with rodent and bird prevention facilities, equipped with a dedicated veterinary room.
6. Strengthen personnel management
Strictly control the entry of off-site personnel into large-scale poultry farms. If necessary, they should change their clothes and shoes, and then enter after passing through the disinfection room. It is strictly forbidden to borrow tools between farms, and a warning sign of "no entry for idlers, no visits" is added to the eye-catching places of chicken farms, and all items entering the farm must be strictly disinfected. Larger farms must be equipped with animal husbandry and veterinary professional technicians suitable for the scale of breeding, and medium-sized farms should also have more than one technician who has been trained in animal husbandry and veterinary expertise. The breeders are relatively fixed positions and do not alternate posts. The breeders usually pay attention to the health status of the poultry and maintain the environmental sanitation inside and outside the poultry house and around. Regularly clean and disinfect the surrounding environment, inside and outside the poultry house, utensils, equipment, etc., And at the same time do a good job in eradicating rodents, killing mosquitoes and flies, and preventing wild animals and wild birds.
7. Sound rules and regulations
Formulate management systems for field directors, technicians, breeders and other positions; formulate use systems for feed, veterinary drugs and other inputs; formulate management systems for sanitation, epidemic prevention, and disinfection. In the usual management, work according to the rules and strengthen the assessment. All systems are on the wall and implemented in accordance with the system.
8.Pay attention to file management
Establish and improve various ledger materials, production files include daily egg production, daily mortalities, daily feed consumption, temperature and humidity and other environmental conditions records; input records include feed, veterinary drugs, veterinary additives and other inputs into the warehouse and out storage records, feed processing records, and veterinary drug group prevention and treatment use records; epidemic prevention files include disinfection, immunization, and antibody monitoring records; sick and dead poultry processing files include necropsy and harmless treatment records; training files include employee training plans and training records. All accounts must be recorded in a timely and complete manner. Account information is kept for more than 2 years.
9. Implement scientific epidemic prevention
The poultry farm has complete epidemic prevention facilities and a sound epidemic prevention system. In accordance with national regulations, epidemic prevention work such as immunization monitoring is carried out, scientifically implements comprehensive prevention and control measures for poultry epidemics, and implements harmless treatment of sick and dead poultry. Farms are equipped with facilities for the harmless treatment of sick and dead poultry such as incinerators or corpse pools, or incineration or deep burial are used for harmless treatment. Develop a poultry immunization plan based on the actual situation of the field and the results of antibody monitoring, and implement the immunization program as planned.
10. Standardize the disposal of feces
The cost of fully realizing the harmless treatment of feces is a huge economic burden for ordinary farmers. Therefore, farmers still generally adopt the traditional treatment measures of returning soil to the field, which is different from large farmers, vegetable bases, and forests.
Fruit tea gardens, seedling bases and other planting bases are linked to establish a production assistance relationship. Conditional farms should strengthen the prevention and control of breeding pollution, improve the ecological environment of poultry, and accelerate the promotion of practical poultry breeding pollution prevention technologies and ecological breeding models such as dry-wet separation, biogas treatment, organic fertilizer processing, earthworm breeding, breeding-biogas-planting, etc., To promote the level of pollution prevention and control of large-scale poultry farming has been further improved.
Now that we know how to manage chicken farms, farmers can carefully develop the chicken industry by following the above ten points to make the industry more and more perfect.
