The development of dairy cattle breeding industryÂ
With the development of the economy and the improvement of living standards, people's demand for milk and dairy products has greatly increased, and national policies have also vigorously encouraged and supported the production of dairy cows. The dairy industry has achieved unprecedented development. The rapid development of China’s major dairy groups has led to the development of China’s dairy farming industry, as well as the development of many industries such as plantation and animal husbandry, and gradually formed a dairy industrialization chain with dairy processing enterprises as the core. China's dairy industry has made a huge contribution. Judging from the current development of the dairy group, the dairy farming industry has become a growing industry. Let's take a look at the development of the dairy industry and several ways to promote the development of the dairy industry.
Several methods to promote the development of the dairy industry
1. China's dairy industry needs relevant consulting agencies
Consultation itself is a highly technical skill. It is an advanced form of veterinary services and is more valuable than simply treating sick cattle. According to reports, Europe and the United States have developed trainings such as Cow　Signals, 　Consult　the　Cow, 　Consulting　Services, etc., and have begun commercial operations. In my country, there is very little training that focuses on the field of ranch. Cultivating and forming this skill requires professional training and long-term training.
2. The development of the dairy industry needs to update the concept
In the past, veterinarians believed that as long as all the sick cows were cured, the entire herd would be healthy, so they were busy treating clinical diseases every day. If you hear that a certain veterinarian has a high level of operation in the ranch, it means that he has a high level of surgery. Hundreds of real gastric displacement operations have been performed within a year. The success rate is very high. The pasture veterinary industry is developing towards treatment and surgery, struggling to cope with the treatment of sick cattle. The biggest progress in dairy veterinary research in Europe and the United States in the past 25 years is that the veterinary practice of dairy cattle has transformed from treating clinical diseases to preventing subclinical diseases. People have re-recognized that almost all diseases are caused by multiple factors, and the factors that cause diseases are also Being regarded as part of the disease, removing the causative agent also belongs to the category of disease prevention. Therefore, the veterinary industry now believes that all pathogenic factors that cause diseases are eliminated, infectious diseases are eradicated, all subclinical diseases are prevented, and the entire cattle herd is healthy; the pasture veterinary industry is geared towards preventing veterinarians and nutritional and metabolic diseases. The direction of prevention and pasture consulting. For example, the perinatal period is a stage where dairy cow diseases are highly prevalent. Data show that 75% of the diseases occur in this stage, and 25% of the elimination occurs within 2 months after delivery. Therefore, prevention and health monitoring of perinatal diseases should be done. Early detection and early treatment are essential to eliminate the disease in its budding state. In addition, although the animal husbandry has a history of thousands of years, it was not until the last 10 years that people discovered that understanding and meeting the behavior and environmental needs of cattle is very important, and failure to meet the needs of cattle is also regarded as part of the disease.
3. Managers of large-scale farms need relevant training
After the melamine incident, the scale of dairy farming in my country has become higher and higher, and ultra-large-scale pastures have continuously emerged. As of the end of 2013, more than 30 ranches have been completed and put into production. As a new thing, ten thousand head cattle farms have sprung up like mushrooms after the rain. Many aspects lack mature experience to learn from, and more need to explore suitable development paths and models. According to data provided by DeLaval, there are about 150 managers in the world who can manage large-scale ranches, while there are very few in China. This also urgently needs corresponding training, especially the ability to find and solve problems in production.
The managers of large-scale ranches need to be on-site to discover and solve problems. However, some ranches always sit in the office, even if they go to the production area just to watch the flowers, or to accompany the leaders to promote their own benefits. Turn a blind eye to the problems of the ranch. When analyzing the difference between Chinese and Israeli cattle farm managers, Israeli Daniel said: Chinese cattle farm managers are more like white-collar workers of the company, staying in the office most of the time, living comfortably and having superior office conditions; while Israeli cattle farm managers They are all commanded at the front line of production, analyzed the production data through the cattle farm management software, and then solved it in the first time.
4. Technicians of large-scale farms need relevant skills
In fact, the employees in the ranch are the ones who understand the production situation best. However, on the one hand, there is a general lack of corresponding knowledge and skills. On the other hand, everyone is only engaged in his own position, lacking coordination and comprehensive observation, understanding and analysis. There are huge differences between veterinarians in our country’s ranch veterinarians and foreign veterinarians, which are manifested in the following aspects: education, training and skills, and job content.
In terms of qualification education and professional skills, my country's cattle farm veterinarians have almost no threshold. The author conducted a statistics on large-scale ranches, showing that more than 80% of ranching technicians (veterinarians, breeders, breeders) have a technical secondary school education or below, and lack a systematic and comprehensive knowledge system and relative training.
A system of practicing veterinarians is generally implemented abroad. In the United States, you can become a veterinarian by taking 4 years of study and passing the National Veterinary Degree Examination (DVM). Only veterinary schools accredited by the American Veterinary Association Board of Education can issue DVM degrees. At present, 27 universities in the United States have certified veterinary schools. Approximately 2,100 students graduate each year; to become a practicing veterinarian, a DVM must pass a state government examination and obtain a license before practicing medicine.
