Secrets to Fattening Old and Cull Cattle: Master the Method for Fast Weight Gain
Fattening old and cull cattle is an effective measure to give full play to cattle's production performance and improve the economic benefits of cattle farming. Before fattening, first deworm the cattle and give preventive vaccination, then adopt intensive fattening, that is, achieve the fattening goal within a short period (80 days to 100 days). The secrets I have mastered for fattening old and cull cattle are introduced below: The secret of fattening with rice-washing water plus rice bran. Each day per head of cattle use 20 kg to 30 kg of rice-washing water, add 2 kg to 3 kg of rice bran, mix and feed to the cattle, with other conventional

Simple Control Methods for Eight Diseases and Pests of Edible Fungi
In China, more than 20 species of edible fungi are cultivated on a relatively large scale, including the button mushroom, shiitake, oyster mushroom, snow fungus, wood ear, king stropharia, nameko, and pine mushroom. In recent years, edible fungus cultivation has achieved encouraging results, but according to growers' feedback, diseases and pests of edible fungi frequently occur, causing varying degrees of loss. Here we introduce simple control methods for eight diseases and pests. 1. Brown rot, also known as white rot or blister disease, mainly harms the fruiting bodies of straw mushroom, button mushroom, and others. If the casing soil is contaminated, spray 50% carbendazim or 70%

How to control edible mushroom pests? Eight methods to help you deal with them skillfully
In the process of edible mushroom production, the control of pests (mushroom gnats, mushroom midges, springtails, mites, nematodes, etc.) is a headache for mushroom growers. Now I would like to introduce several methods for skillfully controlling edible mushroom pests to mushroom grower friends, for their reference. 1. Use fermented or sterilized substrate cultivation as much as possible to control the insect population in the cultivation site; the cultivation beds for button mushrooms (Agaricus bisporus) should use fermented substrate. When mixing the substrate, add 0.5% salt, 3% lime, 5%-8% plant ash, etc., which has a good insect-repellent and preventive effect. 2. Before the mushroom bags or substrate are brought into the shed, empty-shed disinfection should be carried out: use 0

Pig farmers, take note: never spray cold water on pigs in the height of summer
In the height of summer, when temperatures are high, pigs often pant heavily from the heat. Some farmers, worried that the pigs will get sick from the heat, spray cold water on them, hoping to cool them down and make them feel more comfortable, not realizing that this does more harm than good. Pigs pant from the heat because they do not sweat effectively, so the heat in their bodies cannot be released for the time being. If cold water is sprayed on the pigs at this point, the strong cold stimulus makes the sweat pores all over their bodies contract sharply, the release of body heat is blocked, and their body temperature instead rises abruptly. In mild cases this causes high fever and lung inflammation; in severe cases it leads to death. Therefore

Scraping the mushroom bed surface of oyster mushrooms can increase mushroom weight
After two harvests of oyster mushrooms, the bed surface often becomes severely dry and compacted, with poor air and water permeability, and the mycelium becomes senescent and weak, which delays the fruiting time, reduces mushroom yield, and may even result in no mushrooms at all. Scraping the bed surface can effectively solve this problem and produce a very good yield increase. The method for scraping the bed surface is: for a severely compacted bed surface with an overly thick mycelial skin, scrape off a thin layer of the aged mycelial skin over the entire surface. For a slightly compacted bed surface with a relatively thick mycelial skin, use a wire to scratch many small crisscrossing grooves until the mycelium is exposed. For ridge-bed cultivation,

How to do garlic fine management and care? Detailed explanation of the eight-step method
Land preparation and fertilization. Choose fertile loam or sandy loam land that has not been planted with onions, garlic, or chives. Before plowing, apply 7500 kg of high-quality farmyard manure and 200 kg of soybean cake per 667 sq m. Or apply 100-150 kg of ternary compound fertilizer and 5000 kg of farmyard manure per 667 sq m. The land should be leveled and raked fine. Combined with land preparation, use 1.5-2.5 kg of phoxim granules per 667 sq m, mix with an appropriate amount of wheat bran and soybean cake into poisoned bait, and scatter it into the soil clods of the plowed land to kill white grubs, wireworms,

A Detailed Explanation of Eight Advanced Rice Transplanting Methods
1. Improved Intensive Cultivation: Transplant young seedlings early at the 3-leaf to 4-leaf 1-heart stage. Fields with good water sources should be transplanted early, while fields with poor water sources can be transplanted slightly later. Both dry-raised and water-raised seedlings are suitable, but basal fertilizer must be applied in full, the soil deeply plowed and leveled, strong seedlings selected as much as possible, and transplanting done in shallow water; both row spacing and hill spacing are 1 chi 3 cun, with three individual plants per hill spaced 3 cun apart in a triangular arrangement. This transplanting method has density within sparseness and sparseness within density, minimizing competition among plants for nutrients and sunlight to the greatest extent, which benefits individual plant development and thus can greatly increase yield. It is the most advocated transplanting method today. Two

Eight steps for meticulous pre-winter management of garlic
Land preparation and fertilization. Choose fertile loam or sandy loam soil where onions, garlic or Chinese chives have not been grown before. Before ploughing, apply 7500 kg of high-quality farmyard manure and 200 kg of soybean cake per 667 sq m. Or apply 100-150 kg of ternary compound fertilizer and 5000 kg of farmyard manure per 667 sq m. The land should be levelled and harrowed fine. Along with land preparation, use 1.5-2.5 kg of phoxim granules per 667 sq m, mix with an appropriate amount of wheat bran and soybean cake to make poisoned bait, and scatter it into the soil clods of the ploughed land to kill white grubs, wireworms, mole crickets and other underground pests.

How do you identify sheep diseases? Remember these eight points to observe
With the adjustment of the structure of livestock breeds, Boer goat farming has become the first choice for farmers to get rich and reach a moderately prosperous life. Boer goats are an introduced breed, few in number and expensive. In addition to strengthening feeding management, the growth and activity of Boer goats should be observed frequently to ensure timely treatment in the early stage of illness and reduce losses. Generally, the following aspects are carefully observed and comprehensively judged to determine whether they are sick. 1. Look at the demeanor. Healthy Boer goats are full of energy, move agilely, and have bright eyes. Sick goats are sluggish, prefer to lie down, hang their heads, shed tears, and are afraid of light. 2. Look at feed
