What diseases should we pay attention to when raising pigs?

At present, an important problem that puzzles many pig farmers is the common diseases encountered in the process of raising pigs. If the prevention and control of pig diseases are not timely and the treatment is unscientific, it will easily cause huge losses to the whole pig industry. Many diseases in pig diseases spread very fast, and the mortality rate is relatively high, and many diseases are highly contagious. If the prevention and control is not timely, it will also affect people's diet and health to a certain extent, so it is very important to prevent common diseases of pigs. So let's take a look at what diseases we need to pay attention to when raising pigs today.

1. Classical swine fever

Classical swine fever is a viral infectious disease, and its pathogen is mainly classical swine fever virus, which can occur all year round, especially in autumn. The morbidity and mortality of piglets are the highest. The sick pig has obvious high fever, red skin, early constipation, late diarrhea, loss of appetite and poor mental state. Once the pigs are found to be sick, farmers should isolate and diagnose them in time and immunize the pigs with large doses of classical swine fever vaccine. Note that the vaccine dose must be dozens of times more effective than the conventional vaccine. If the vaccination is carried out according to the normal vaccine, the effect will not be achieved. In order to reduce the incidence of swine fever, farmers should do a good job of immunization, strengthen environmental hygiene, use caustic soda to disinfect pens, create a healthy environment, and effectively reduce the incidence of pigs.

2. Infectious gastroenteritis

At ordinary times, we should strengthen the cleaning and disinfection of the environment, do a good job in the hygiene of the pigsty, control the appropriate temperature and humidity range, and keep the pigsty dry and fresh. During treatment, 3.5g of sodium chloride,1.5g of potassium chloride, 2.5g of sodium bicarbonate, 20g of glucose and 1000 ml of cold boiled water can be made into oral liquid for piglets to drink by themselves.

3. Swine flu

Symptoms: Swine flu is an acute infectious respiratory disease caused by influenza A virus infection, which often occurs in autumn and winter with changeable weather and cold climate. Pigs of all ages, sexes and breeds are susceptible to this disease. The detoxification of sick pigs from respiratory tract is mainly spread by droplets and dust in the air. In addition, personnel, utensils and feed are also the media of communication.
