Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of fattening sheep feed, in particular to a straw probiotic feed. Background Art

[0002] Straw is a widely produced by-product in agricultural production, mainly including corn straw, wheat straw, rice straw, etc. These straws are rich in various organic substances such as cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, etc. As a feed raw material for ruminants, they can provide important nutrients for them in some cases. However, straw contains a large amount of macromolecular substances such as cellulose, which are difficult to be directly and effectively utilized by ruminants such as sheep, limiting the widespread application of straw in animal husbandry. Traditionally, ruminants can digest part of the cellulose through their unique gastrointestinal system (including the rumen), but their digestion capacity and conversion efficiency are much lower than those of concentrated feeds, and incomplete digestion of excessive cellulose may also cause intestinal discomfort or malnutrition.

[0003] In the prior art, although there are certain methods to improve the utilization efficiency of straw, there are still problems such as complex processing methods, high costs and serious environmental pollution.

[0004] In the field of animal husbandry, in order to improve the efficiency of breeding, a large amount of concentrated feed, such as corn, soybean meal, wheat bran, etc., is usually added. These concentrated feeds are rich in energy and protein, which are the key to the rapid weight gain of fattened sheep. However, the cost of these concentrated feeds is high, which directly affects the economic efficiency of mutton production. Especially in small-scale and medium-sized farms, feed costs usually account for the main part of breeding costs. Therefore, how to reduce feed costs and improve the utilization rate of straw has become an urgent problem to be solved in the industry.

[0005] In addition, large amounts of antibiotics are used in traditional feed, affecting the quality and safety of mutton.

[0006] Therefore, an innovative and environmentally friendly straw resource utilization technology is urgently needed. Summary of the invention

[0007] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a straw probiotic feed, which aims to improve the utilization efficiency of straw by ruminants by selecting and optimizing probiotic strains and combining the fermentation conversion of straw, thereby reducing feed costs, improving mutton production efficiency, and promoting the resource utilization of straw and the development of green breeding technology to solve the technical problems raised in the background technology.

[0031] Straw is rich in nutrients such as cellulose, but it is difficult for sheep to directly and efficiently use it. Probiotics can decompose macromolecules such as cellulose in straw and convert them into small molecule nutrients such as sugars and fatty acids that sheep can absorb. At the same time, they colonize in the gastrointestinal tract of sheep, regulate the balance of microbial flora, inhibit harmful bacteria, enhance sheep immunity, and promote nutrient absorption, thereby improving fattening effects.

[0032] Research Process

[0033] 1. Strain screening and identification (first three months): Collect a variety of probiotics from natural fermentation environments, animal intestines, etc., and through laboratory culture, morphological observation, physiological and biochemical characteristics testing and molecular biology identification, screen out strains such as lactic acid bacteria and Bacillus that have strong straw decomposition capabilities and adapt to the sheep intestinal environment.

[0034] 2. Feed formula optimization (3-6 months): Use straw as the main raw material, match it with an appropriate amount of concentrated feed, add selected probiotics, design formulas with different proportions, conduct in vitro simulated fermentation tests, determine the nutritional components, pH value, organic acid content and other indicators of the fermentation products, combine it with fattening sheep feeding tests, monitor the growth performance, feed intake, digestibility, etc. of the sheep, and determine the optimal formula after multiple adjustments.

[0035] 3. Pilot production and quality testing (6-9 months): Carry out pilot production in a small feed processing plant to test indicators such as product particle size, moisture, number of live probiotics, and nutritional ingredients to ensure stable product quality and meet feed hygiene standards. At the same time, optimize production process parameters to improve production efficiency and product qualification rate.

[0036] 4. Application effect verification (9-18 months): Select multiple fattening sheep farms to carry out comparative experiments. Set up experimental and control groups, feed straw probiotic feed and traditional feed respectively, record the sheep's initial weight, final weight, daily weight gain, feed-to-meat ratio and other growth data, collect blood and feces samples regularly, test immune indicators and changes in microbial flora, comprehensively evaluate the impact of feed on the growth performance, health status and meat quality of fattening sheep, and continuously improve and perfect it.

[0037] In the process of application effect verification:

[0038] Significant fattening effect: the daily weight gain of fattening sheep increased by 3.6%, the feed-to-meat ratio decreased by 1%, the breeding cycle was shortened by 10 days, the breeding efficiency was improved, and the protein content of mutton increased by 0.45%, the fat content was optimized, the meat was tender and juicy, the flavor was good, and the market competitiveness was strong, providing strong support for the efficient, high-quality and sustainable development of the mutton industry, and promoting the recycling of agricultural resources and the transformation and upgrading of animal husbandry.

[0039] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-restrictive in all respects, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the above description, and it is intended that all changes falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims be included in the present invention.
