JPH01285160A - Feed for hog-raising - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a feed for hog-raising having intestinal function controlling action and antidiarrhetic action, liked by hog, having low feed conversion and effective in increasing the body weight by adding a specific Chinese herb drug to a feed for hog-raising. CONSTITUTION:A conventional feed for hog-raising is added with one or more kinds of Chinese herb drugs selected from SENSHINREN (Andrographis paniculata), SANZASHI (fruit of Crataegus cuneata) and KANZO (root of Glycyrrhiza glabra). In the case of using the above herb drugs in combination, the amount of SANZASHI and KANZO is <=1 pt.wt., usually about 0.8-0.1 based on 1 pt.wt. of SENSHINREN in dry basis and the total amount of the herb drugs is about 0.1-3wt.% based on the feed.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Field of Application] The present invention relates to a feed for pigs that has an intestinal regulation effect and an antidiarrheal effect.

[Conventional technology]

One of the issues that must be solved in the current pig farming industry is the problem of diarrhea and loose stools. Diarrhea and loose stools impede the availability of feed and at the same time have a major impact on growth. In particular, the effects of diarrhea and loose stools during the piglet stage are significant, leading to stagnation in body weight, which continues into later life and has a major impact on productivity. Various antibiotics have been used to solve this problem.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

However, in many cases, administering drugs after the onset of diarrhea is ineffective, and there has been a desire to develop a preventive method that does not cause diarrhea.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The present invention has been made to solve these problems, and by adding a specific herbal medicine to pig feed, it is possible not only to prevent diarrhea and loose stools, but also to prevent pigs from suffering from this problem. The present invention was completed after discovering that pigs enjoy the feed and have no adverse effects on pigs.

That is, the present invention relates to a feed for pigs, which is characterized by containing lotus root, licorice root, or licorice root.

Andrographis p
anicul-ata (Burm, f,) Nees)
is a plant of the Acanthaceae family. The part added to the feed may be the whole plant (or the leaf part).Also, this lotus may be cultured as a callus.It may be added to the feed in its raw state. Dry products are preferable for preserving feed, and are preferably shredded or powdered so that they can be mixed uniformly into feed.

5ie1. It is a fruit of a plant belonging to the Rosaceae family, such as E. et al.

Licorice (Glycyrrhiza ur)
alens-is Fisch) is a leguminous plant, and licorice may be added to the feed (or only the roots or rhizomes may be used. It is a callus cultured product of root or rhizome cells. It may be added to the feed in its raw form, but it is preferable to use it in a dried form, and it is best to use it in shredded or powdered form.

The feed of the present invention may be supplemented with any one of the lotus root, the soybean radish, and the licorice root, but the lotus root is the most effective when used alone. It is preferable to add to the feed a combination of the lotus, the licorice, or both, and it is especially preferable to add them all.The mixing ratio is 1 part of the lotus by dry weight, and 1 or less of each of the licorice and the licorice, usually. 0.8~0.
A value of about 1, particularly about 0.7 to 0.3, is appropriate. The appropriate amount to add to the feed is 0.1 to 3 weight percent. This amount to be added is the total amount when a plurality of the above Chinese herbal medicines are added.

Other ingredients of the pig feed of the present invention may be the same as known feeds for pigs, including protein, energy source, calcium source, phosphorus source, vitamins, minerals, and the like.

Protein sources include fish meal, soybean meal, rapeseed meal, feather meal, and meat bone meal.Amino acids such as DL-methionine, L-tryptophan, L-lysine, and L-threonine are used to compensate for amino acid imbalances. Energy sources that may be added include carbohydrates such as corn, milo, and wheat flour, and oils and fats such as feed oil, soybean oil, and powdered oil. Examples of calcium sources include calcium carbonate. It goes without saying that it is necessary to contain other phosphorus sources, vitamins, minerals, etc. in the same way as known feeds.

The content is approximately 16-22% crude protein and 3-10% crude fat.
degree, calcium 2.8-3.5%, ME2800
~3200 Kcal/kg may be sufficient.

The feeding method may be the same as the conventional method.

[Effect]

When pig feed is supplemented with fenugreek lotus, linden lily, or licorice, the occurrence of diarrhea and loose stools in pigs is significantly reduced.

〔Example〕

Example 1 A commercially available feed for pigs (Ciaicronate J, trade name, ITOCHU Feed ■Product) was mixed with 0.125% by weight of Chungshinren, and a weight ratio of Chungshinren: Yamashiko: Licorice was 1:1. A test was conducted in which 0.5% by weight of a 2:1 mixture was added.

Six pigs immediately after weaning were used in each group and raised for 7 days. At the same time, a fecal survey was conducted for 10 days.

The breeding results are shown in Table 1, and the fecal examination results are shown in Table 2.
