Cow bed rice straw mattress

Abstract

The invention discloses a cow bed rice straw mattress. The cow bed rice straw mattress comprises a rubber mattress and a straw mat arranged on the rubber mattress, wherein the straw mat comprises rice straws woven into sheets and gauze covering the rice straws. On the basis of the rubber mattress, the straw mat layer is spread for the cow bed rice straw mattress, and the lying comfort degree of milk cows is improved due to the characteristics of the rice straws such as softness and good elasticity; the gauze can protect the rice straw layer which is intolerant of trampling and prevent the milk cows from eating the rice straws; and meanwhile, the smooth surface layer of the gauze effectively relieves the friction between legs and feet of the milk cows and a cow bed. The invention is used in the field of cow culture.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of cattle breeding, in particular to a straw mat for cattle beds. Background technique [0002] In order to improve the lying comfort of dairy cows, dairy farms are generally equipped with cow beds. At present, there are three main modes: one is sand bed, that is, the cow bed uses sand as a padding material, and the thickness is generally about 20cm; the other is rubber cow bed. Cow beds with two layers of rubber mats are laid on the concrete floor. The rubber mats are generally two layers. The lower layer is a slightly harder sponge mat with a thickness of 5cm to 10cm. The upper layer is a rubber mat with a thickness of about 1cm. The third is fermentation. There is no separate cattle bed in the cowshed, that is, except for the feeding passage, the rest of the shed area is a playground-style cattle field, and the bedding materials are rice bran, sawdust, and dried cow dung. [0003] Sand is currently recognized as t...

Problems solved by technology

The advantage of the fermentation bed is that the cows have a high degree of comfort, which is convenient for the cows to lie down on the spot, and can effectively protect the health of the limbs and hoofs. The disadvantage is that the sanitary conditions are poor, and if the care is not in place, there will be a lot of cow dung on the cows’ limbs, which is harmful to the control of the udder. Inflammation and milk quality are adversely affected. At the same time, disinfection work is particularly important. Failure to do so often leads to outbreaks of contagious hoof disease and mastitis.
