Reasons why cows do not grow

When raising cows, if the cow does not grow well and becomes too thin, it will lead to a series of conditions such as inability to normal estrus, unfit for breeding, and insufficient milk secretion after delivery. So what is the reason why the cow is not thin enough to get fat? In fact, the main reasons are these three aspects:

1. Poor stomach.

Cows have poor stomach and intestines. In fact, this phenomenon is quite common in the process of raising cows. If the cow’s stomach and intestines are not good, not only will it not get fat, but it will also be prone to problems such as rumen food and rumen flatulence. The probability of disease is relatively high. Therefore, when the cow is not fat, the first thing to do is to solve the cow’s gastrointestinal problems. You can feed the cow a premixed vitamin powder feed, which can invigorate the cow’s stomach and promote ruminating and regulate the cow’s gastrointestinal system, which is of great help to improve the growth of cows.

2. Insufficient nutrient

In addition to the poor gastrointestinal tract of the cow, which makes it weaker, the lack of nutrition in the feed will also cause the cow to lose weight. The lack of nutrition in cows may lead to pica and rough coats. Therefore, for cows that are not fat, it is recommended to use vitamin premix or vitamin soluble powder for them while conditioning their stomachs, so that the cows can get as many vitamins and minerals as possible. This is also a more effective measure to improve the condition of the cow.

3. Parasites.

Regardless of whether beef cattle or cows, if they do not get fat during the breeding period, it is also necessary to consider whether it is the reasons of parasites, and whether the cattle are regularly dewormed. If there is no deworming, it is recommended to use the anthelmintic albendazole ivermectin powder to deworm the cattle in time. If deworm the cows, we should choose to deworm them during the empty pregnant period, which will be safer. If during a cow during pregnancy, it is recommended to deworm in the second trimester, but you must pay attention to the amount of anthelmintic, and choose to use anthelmintic during pregnancy (for example, acetamidoavermectin injection).

4. The environment of Breeding houses

The growth of cattle will be affected by many environmental factors in the breeding houses, including temperature, humidity, hygiene and other factors. The better these factors are controlled, the more beneficial the growth of cow. Poor temperature, humidity, and sanitation control will increase bacteria and viruses in the breeding houses, and cow will easily cause various diseases, which are not conducive to the growth of cow. Therefore, we must pay attention to environmental issues. Use disinfectants to disinfect the breeding houses once a month to prevent various diseases and problems caused by bacteria and viruses in cattle.
