How to Identify Pigeon Diseases? Teach You to Tell Pigeon Illnesses with a Discerning Eye
Check the body posture. Sick pigeons are in poor spirits, inactive, isolated from the flock, eat less or not at all, are thin, have ruffled feathers, dull eyes, rapid breathing, wheeze when breathing or make abnormal sounds from the throat and trachea, drink excessively, or fail to feed their young.

Northeast "Strange Rice" succeeds in trial planting in Heilongjiang and begins to be promoted to farmers within the province
Sitting on a pile of plump rice sacks with a beaming smile, Jin Yushi, a farmer from Xiangfang District, Harbin, is very gratified by the bumper harvest of the 8 mu of "Northeast Strange Rice" he planted this year. This year, low temperatures and scant sunshine caused reduced yields in some rice-producing areas of Heilongjiang Province. However, some rice growers who applied new technologies and new varieties still steadily achieved high yields. Among them, rice farmers Jin Yushi, Zhang Zibin and others obtained a good harvest by accepting the suggestions and guidance of scientific and technical personnel, introducing "Northeast Strange Rice" and applying biological technologies such as "three agents and two fertilizers",

Key Technical Points for No-Till Planting with Rice Straw Return
No-till technology with rice straw return refers to a simple planting method in which, after the rice harvest, the rice straw is spread evenly over the field, no plowing is done, and only chemical weed control is carried out before wheat can be sown. This technology was successfully developed in May 2000 through dedicated experimental research by the Chengdu Second Institute of Agricultural Sciences. The no-till wheat planting technology with rice straw return fully combines the advantages of straw return, no-till, and broadcasting, and scientifically assembles them into a complete new technology package, which has not yet been formally reported at home or abroad. Experimental research shows that this comprehensive supporting technology not only increases

Detailed Explanation of Techniques for Raising Fish Fry in Reservoir Cages Without Feeding
In reservoirs with fertile water quality, using cages to raise silver carp and bighead carp fry without feeding is not only practical and feasible, but also has advantages such as not occupying fry ponds, not spending on fish feed, and low cost. Without feeding, raising one silver carp or bighead carp fry of about 13cm in a cage in a reservoir costs less than 0.10 yuan, while raising one fry of the same size in a pond costs more than 0.10 yuan; converted per mu, the yield is about 150,000 fry/mu or more, which is 30-40 times that of internal ponds. Therefore, reservoir cage culture without feeding

Azalea Bonsai Flower Bud Removal Techniques: How to Make the Canopy Dense and Uniform with Flat Tiers
Stump bonsai styling emphasizes clear layers, that is, the so-called "flat tiers" in bonsai styling should be distinct, giving it a natural charm, and this is especially prominent in azalea bonsai.

For this reason, people usually carry out techniques such as pinching and topping, but the technique I am introducing now is the one most suitable for flowering bonsai: flower bud removal. The flat-tier styling of azalea bonsai is generally the horizontal-branch type. To make it lush and perfect as quickly as possible, before the azalea has bloomed its buds, remove the buds on

Because the disease mostly occurs in the cold winter and spring seasons and is highly contagious, in some places it is customarily called cold diarrhea. There are many methods for treating the disease, but according to practice, the currently more effective method is starvation therapy. So-called starvation therapy means that once symptoms of the disease appear in pigs, the method of stopping feeding is adopted, and absolutely no feed-related food may be given to the sick pigs, including green fodder and so on. Generally, feeding is stopped for 2~3 days. The specific operation method is as follows: clean up the leftover
