Method for managing free-ranging sheep in yard by using computer program

Abstract

A method for managing free-ranging sheep in a yard by using a computer program is characterized in that a magnetic card is arranged on the ear or the neck of each sheep and contains information of feeding, growth and breeding of the sheep. A sheep hayrack is installed in a specific area of the sheep yard, a non-contact magnetic card reader is arranged above the sheep hayrack, and a hay feeding pipeline is connected with the back of the sheep hayrack. When the sheep approach the sheep hayrack, the non-contact magnetic card reader above the sheep hayrack conducts information exchanging with the magnetic cards on sheep bodies. After the computer analyzes and processes the information of the sheep, an executing mechanism opens a hay feeding pipeline gate to give a portion of hay suitable for each sheep. Program management can be conducted on each sheep in the yard through the computer program. The soil ground in the yard is not required to be leveled, sheep pens are required to be built, a playground is not required to be built, and only a sheep pen fence, a hay bin and a sheep hayrack installing area are required to be built. The sheep can move randomly within the yard, and by means of the sheep farming method, growth and breeding of the sheep are close to the natural state.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of modern agricultural engineering, and relates to a computer program management method for raising sheep in the field, which is characterized in that the sheep are raised in the field without building pens, and the computer program manages the feeding and drinking of the sheep. Unrestricted growth, this method can maximize the growth and reproduction of sheep close to the natural state. Background technique [0002] At present, the sheep breeding mode in the southern agricultural areas of my country is changing from the traditional free-range farming mode to the modern breeding mode. The well-known sheep farms mostly use centralized pens for breeding in livestock houses, and the breeding density is generally 1 to 1.5m 2 / only, centralized feeding of forage, centralized treatment of excrement, some have small playgrounds behind the pens, some have no playgrounds, intensive sheep raising has largely solved the proble...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

The well-known sheep farms mostly use centralized pens for breeding in livestock houses, and the breeding density is generally 1 to 1.5m 2 / only, centralized feeding of forage, centralized treatment of excrement, some have small playgrounds behind the pens, some have no playgrounds, intensive sheep raising has largely solved the problem of raising sheep in southern agricultural areas, but it has also created many problems. For example, raising sheep in pens changes the physiological habits of sheep, the movement of sheep is restricted, the density of sheep is high, there is little light, the living environment is harsh, there are many diseases, and the quality of meat is poor. These are the existing intensive sheep breeding models. Unresolvable problems, resulting in slow growth of captive sheep, high incidence of disease, low meat quality, low production efficiency and environmental pollution, etc.
