Abstract

The present invention relates to a composition for improving the environment of pig breeding in unsupported soil. Its aim is to increase the size of the child and reduce death. The active ingredient of the composition by which the coters are provided is a sugar saturation sludge.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a composition for improving the pig breeding environment of litter-free housing in livestock production.

The need to increase labor productivity in agriculture will force the concentration of livestock production. One of the hallmarks of housing technology in pigs is the omission of litter. These so-called. unsubstantiated stabling areas with undergrowth removal of manure allowed a significant increase in labor productivity. The current structure of farrowing sows has a section of the floor of the sow floor, which facilitates the removal of excrement; in fact, the sow and pig bed area is mostly converted from smooth concrete. This arrangement is dictated, in particular, by the requirement of maintaining zoohygiene, since it allows washing after weaning and relocation of sows and weaning the bed - documented washing with disinfectants. The disadvantage of this housing technology, which cannot be eliminated by known means with a reasonable economy, is the contamination of the bedding area by pig excrement, which worsens the microclimate, allows local parasite transmission, attracts insects that harass animals and others.

All of this is reflected in lower weight gains in pigs than their genetic pool and feed quality would allow. Higher mortality in pigs may also be manifested.

Disadvantages of the prior art are substantially reduced by means of improving the environment of pig breeding in non-littering housing, which is based on the fact that it contains a saturating sugar sludge as the active substance. It is applied by spreading the floor 1x in three days to 2x in a day in an amount from 0.1 kg. nr ² . cl ¹ to 5 kg. mr ² . d ^-1 .

The composition is a nontoxic, fine-grained, moisture-absorbent powder material, is not bacterially contaminated and is readily available at a low cost.

The main advantage of the composition is that a higher effect is achieved at a minimal cost, i.e. a lower cost. higher increments, ie better utilization of buildings, feed, word-m of higher benefit per unit of cost.

The effect of vitality and fitness is subjective and can be documented photographically. One of the components of the co-mp-lex action of the s-ature sludge is probably an insecticidal action on eventually picked eggs and iranaguls occurring on the treated flat. The insecticidal multiplication of s-aturation sludge is known both from the literature and from our own experiments in other contexts.

The indisputable advantage of the composition is that the use is unpretentious for the consumption of human labor - even in the manual dusting that has been used in in-service tests. In this connection, it can be relatively easily mechanized by simple and known devices.

Chemically, the saturation sludge is a co-precipitated calcium carbonate having a particle size of about 50 µm and an inner surface of about 15 m ² .g ^-1 . It is likely that the main mechanism of its action is physicochemical: water, m-icro-organisms, toxic, resp. odorous decomposition products on a large surface of the spreading material. Thus, the characteristic of the active material is its absorbency, which must, however, be within certain limits: it must not be so large that the material becomes mushy or sticky under the given conditions; must not be hygroscopic.

The invention is illustrated by the following examples.

Example 1

Before application, the saturation k-a1 from the sugar refinery was d-dried to a moisture content of max. 10%. The experiment was carried out with sows of the breed Slovak white noble with individual housing in cox (box) of 1.8 x 2.3 m, ie. with a total flat area of 4 m ² , with feeding of dry fodder mixture and feeding with pin feeders. Wooden bunk beds were installed under the infrared radiators.

From day 4 and day 5 of the litter, the floor of the two experimental kettles was sprinkled with 5% saturation sludge at 150 and 300 grams per kettle per day. The average weight of one pig at weaning (31.5 days from litter) was 6.37 and 8.06 kg, in the control group 6.00 kg. These weights represent increments of 5.21 and 7.07 kg in the experiment, and 5.08 kg for the control. Taking the control group at 100%, the increments in the experimental groups are higher by 2.6 and 39%.

Example 2

The housing of the sows in another farm yard was similar, the size of the boxes was 1.7 xx 2.0 m (3.4 m ² ), the floor was covered with hard asphalt. There were six sows in the control and experimental groups.

Since the launch, the floor of the test pens was sprinkled with a saturation sludge of 100 g per day per pens.

The mean weight of 1 pc at birth was 1.21 kg (control) and 1.36 kg (trial). The weaned weights were 7.88 and 7.96 kg, respectively. 40.8 days of feed represents an average daily increase of 0.154 kg.

. d ¹ and the 0.162 kg.d ^first Thus, increments in the experimental group were 5.2% higher.

The invention is applicable in animal production for rearing pigs in litter-free operations.
