Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of animal husbandry technology, and in particular to an intensive method for preventing and controlling gout in geese and its application. Background Technology

[0002] Gout in geese (urate deposition disease) is a metabolic disease characterized by urate deposition. Clinically, it is mainly characterized by swollen joints, slow walking, limping, and white, watery diarrhea. Autopsy of dead goslings reveals white, lime-like urate deposits in the internal organs, particularly the kidneys, which are enlarged and exhibit a typical "mottled kidney" appearance. This disease is most common in goslings, severely affecting their survival rate and uniformity. In recent years, with the rapid development of large-scale goose farming, the incidence of goose goose goose disease has been increasing, causing significant losses to the goose farming industry.

[0003] There are three main causes of gout in geese: First, nutritional factors in the feed: excessive purines and nucleoproteins in the feed, vitamin A deficiency, excessive calcium salts, or insufficient water intake can all lead to the retention and deposition of urate. Second, poisoning factors: excessive or improperly formulated drugs (such as sulfonamides without alkaline formulation), plant toxins, and mold contamination of feed can damage kidney function and trigger gout. Third, infectious disease factors: nephrotropic viruses such as novel goose astrovirus (causing a 20%–50% mortality rate in goslings) and avian nephritis virus can lead to decreased kidney function, urate deposition, and gout.

[0004] Therefore, it is of great significance to establish a breeding method that can effectively prevent gout in intensive farming. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of this, the main objective of this invention is to provide a method for the intensive prevention and control of gout in geese. By using techniques such as disinfection, precise supplementation of alkaline trace elements, and control of stocking density, environmental pathogens are reduced, significantly improving the disease resistance and breeding efficiency of goslings, thereby tapping into production potential and creating higher production profits.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of the present invention is as follows: A method for intensive gout prevention and control in geese, characterized by comprising: (1) Disinfection management Use hypochlorous acid with a concentration of 50~200ppm to thoroughly disinfect the walls, floors, corners, feed troughs and exercise areas of the goose house; Hypochlorous acid with a final concentration of 10-20 ppm is added to drinking water for disinfection. After the geese are sold and before new geese are put into the house, they should be thoroughly disinfected with sodium hypochlorite at a concentration of 150-250 ppm. (2) Micronutrient addition When the geese are 15-75 days old, add Q lifewater concentrate, a product of AQUA ELECTRA (Germany), to their drinking water daily. (3) Environmental control The density of geese should be controlled at 1-4 per square meter. 2 .

[0007] Hypochlorous acid products, through tiered disinfection (such as regular disinfection of the breeding environment and drinking water system), can effectively kill pathogenic microorganisms in the environment, reduce the production of harmful gases such as ammonia, and lower the risk of kidney mucosal irritation and impaired uric acid excretion function. Its safe and residue-free characteristics can continuously purify drinking water and breeding spaces, reducing environmental factors that induce urate deposition at the source. The hypochlorous acid described in this invention is from Shanghai Yishu Technology Co., Ltd.

[0008] When carrying out comprehensive disinfection, pay attention to wearing protective equipment, avoid mixing with acidic and alkaline substances, and store hypochlorous acid solution in a sealed container away from light at an environment of 5-25℃.

[0009] Optionally, stop providing water and conduct tests when geese refuse to drink; if necessary, provide clean water for 12 hours first. It is necessary to control the protein and calcium content of the feed and observe the condition of the flock to adjust the plan in a timely manner.

[0010] Overuse of sulfonamide drugs can damage the urinary system and cause digestive disorders in geese. It may also lead to allergies, poisoning, and drug resistance. In actual farming, it is necessary to use alkaline substances such as baking soda to detoxify the geese.

[0011] In this invention, by adding Q life water, a product of the German company AQUA ELECTRA, a trace element solution containing sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium ions, sulfates, carbonates, and bicarbonates, the free radicals generated in the goose's body due to metabolic disorders can be neutralized, reducing oxidative damage to the kidneys, protecting the kidneys' excretory function, providing a healthy physiological basis for uric acid metabolism, alleviating the effects of high calcium and high protein in the feed, and restoring metabolic balance.

[0012] Specifically, for geese aged 15-75 days, take Q life water concentrate at a ratio of 1:100 and add it to the drinking system or water trough after premixing and stirring evenly. Change the water once a day. On one day each week, add a higher dose by diluting the Q life water concentrate at a ratio of 1:80 and adding it to the drinking water.

[0013] Overcrowding is a significant factor contributing to gout in geese. Limited space leads to insufficient exercise, decreased metabolic rate, and impaired uric acid excretion. Accelerated fecal accumulation increases the concentration of harmful gases, irritating the kidney mucosa and weakening excretory function. It also easily triggers group stress, causing fluctuations in feed intake, intestinal flora imbalance, and reduced purine and calcium-phosphorus metabolism, ultimately increasing uric acid deposition and the risk of gout. Therefore, reasonable density control is necessary to prevent gout; in this invention, meat geese are controlled at ≤3-4 birds / m², and breeding geese at ≤2-3 birds / m².

[0014] Furthermore, in the disinfection management steps, before comprehensive disinfection, feces and debris are cleaned and rinsed; the feeding trough is disinfected by soaking for 30-50 minutes; after comprehensive disinfection for 40-50 minutes, it is ventilated and dried, and the frequency of comprehensive disinfection is 5-7 days / time.

[0015] Furthermore, in the step of adding trace elements, Q life water stock solution is diluted at a ratio of 1:80~110 and added to drinking water; 200-300mL of Q life water stock solution is used per day for 100 geese.

[0016] Furthermore, in the step of adding trace elements, a high dose is added on one day each week by diluting the Q lifewater stock solution at a ratio of 1:80 and adding it to drinking water.

[0017] Furthermore, the environmental control also includes controlling ventilation twice a day, for 1.5 to 2 hours each time; ammonia concentration not exceeding 15 ppm; and the average daily activity of geese not less than 2 hours.

[0018] Furthermore, the environmental control also includes controlling the ambient humidity to 55-70%.

[0019] Furthermore, the hypochlorous acid used is sourced from Shanghai Yishu Technology Co., Ltd.; it is adjusted to the required concentration for use as needed.

[0020] The present invention also aims to provide the application of any of the above-described methods in intensive goose farming.

[0021] This invention relates to a precise breeding and management method for preventing and controlling gout in geese, focusing on solving problems such as nutritional imbalance in feed, water pollution, and metabolic disorders that induce gout in traditional breeding.

[0022] The technical solution includes: Environmental and water quality management: Hypochlorous acid from Shanghai Yishu Technology Co., Ltd. is used for graded disinfection. The farm is sprayed with 30 ppm every week, and the drinking water system is continuously disinfected with 15 ppm every day to reduce the risk of urate crystals and pathogens in the water.

[0023] Micronutrient supplementation: When geese are 15-75 days old, add 9.1-12.5 ml / L of Q life water from AQUA ELECTRA in Germany to their drinking water daily to inhibit abnormal uric acid accumulation and restore metabolic balance.

[0024] Meanwhile, environmental management should be implemented: maintain a breeding density of ≤4 birds / ㎡, strengthen ventilation and dehumidification, and avoid cold and damp environments that may induce gout.

[0025] This invention significantly reduces the incidence of gout in geese (incidence rate ≤5%) through multi-dimensional synergistic intervention. It constructs a gout prevention system for geese through "environmental purification + metabolic protection + immune enhancement", which not only ensures breeding safety, but also optimizes breeding efficiency by reducing diseases and improving health.

[0026] The beneficial effects of this invention include at least the following: (1) The solution of the present invention is precise and safe: the hypochlorous acid graded disinfection system reduces the growth of pathogens, and the continuous disinfection of drinking water and breeding environment reduces the inducing factors of urate deposition, thus cutting off the gout induction chain from the source; (2) The solution of the present invention can improve the health of the flock: the addition of trace element solution enhances the kidney excretion capacity, reduces the amount of drugs used, and reduces the probability of gout in geese. (3) The solution of the present invention can reduce cost losses: hypochlorous acid and Q life water are used together to reduce the amount of drug used, and the long-term use effect is ideal, reducing the trouble and cost of frequently changing disinfectants.

[0027] (4) The solution of the present invention has outstanding comprehensive benefits: it can significantly reduce the incidence of gout, increase the survival rate of geese to over 95%, effectively increase the egg production rate during the breeding cycle, and significantly improve the economic benefits of large-scale breeding. Detailed Implementation

[0028] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0029] Furthermore, the technical solutions of the various embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other, but only if they are feasible for those skilled in the art. If the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be considered that such combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection claimed by the present invention.

[0030] The technical solution of the present invention is as follows: (1) Disinfection management: Hypochlorous acid products, through tiered disinfection (such as regular disinfection of the breeding environment and drinking water system), can effectively kill pathogenic microorganisms in the environment, reduce the production of harmful gases such as ammonia, and lower the risk of kidney mucosal irritation and impaired uric acid excretion function. Its safe and residue-free characteristics can continuously purify drinking water and breeding spaces, reducing environmental factors that induce urate deposition at the source. The hypochlorous acid described in this invention is from Shanghai Yishu Technology Co., Ltd.

[0031] a. Disinfecting goose houses, feed troughs, and exercise areas with hypochlorous acid: Before disinfecting the goose house with hypochlorous acid, clean up feces and debris and rinse thoroughly. Then prepare a solution at a concentration of 50-200 ppm. During operation, spray the walls, floor, and corners of the goose house thoroughly. Feed troughs and other equipment can be soaked or repeatedly sprayed. Allow to act for 30-60 minutes, then ventilate and dry. Wear protective equipment and avoid mixing with acidic or alkaline substances. The solution must be stored in a sealed container away from light. Regularly disinfect once a week. Thorough disinfection is necessary after the geese are sold and before new geese enter the house to kill pathogens and reduce the risk of disease.

[0032] b. Disinfecting drinking water for geese with hypochlorous acid: The recommended concentration for poultry drinking water disinfection is 10-20 ppm. Excessive concentration may lead to poor taste, animals refusing to drink, or even irritation of the mucous membranes.

[0033] (2) Adding trace element solution Overuse of sulfonamide drugs can damage the urinary system and cause digestive disorders in geese. It may also lead to allergies, poisoning, and drug resistance. In actual farming, it is necessary to use alkaline substances such as baking soda to detoxify the geese.

[0034] In this invention, by adding Q life water, a product of the German company AQUA ELECTRA, a trace element solution containing sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium ions, sulfates, carbonates, and bicarbonates, the free radicals generated in the goose's body due to metabolic disorders can be neutralized, reducing oxidative damage to the kidneys, protecting the kidneys' excretory function, providing a healthy physiological basis for uric acid metabolism, alleviating the effects of high calcium and high protein in the feed, and restoring metabolic balance.

[0035] Add Q life water to the goslings' drinking water at a ratio of 1:100. Taking a growth cycle of 100-120 days as an example, start adding Q life water to the drinking water after 15 days of age and continue for 50-60 days. When operating, dilute the stock solution according to the ratio, stir well, and add it to the drinking water system or water trough, changing it once a day.

[0036] Environmental management: Overcrowding is a significant factor in inducing gout in geese. Limited space leads to insufficient exercise, decreased metabolic rate, and obstructed uric acid excretion; accelerated fecal accumulation increases the concentration of harmful gases, irritating the kidney mucosa and weakening excretory function; it also easily triggers group stress, leading to fluctuations in feed intake, intestinal flora imbalance, and reduced purine and calcium-phosphorus metabolism, ultimately increasing uric acid deposition and the risk of gout. Therefore, reasonable density control is necessary (≤3-4 meat geese / ㎡, ≤2-3 breeding geese / ㎡) to prevent gout.

[0037] This invention relates to a precise management method for preventing and controlling gout in geese, focusing on addressing problems such as nutritional imbalances in feed, water pollution, and metabolic disorders that induce gout in traditional farming. The technical solution includes: Environmental and water quality management: Graded disinfection using hypochlorous acid from Shanghai Yishu Technology Co., Ltd., with weekly application of 30 ppm throughout the farm and daily disinfection of the drinking water system at 15 ppm, reducing the risk of urate crystallization and pathogen growth in the water. Micronutrient supplementation: When geese are 15-75 days old, Q life water from AQUA ELECTRA (Germany) is added to the drinking water daily at a rate of 9.1-12.5 ml / L to inhibit abnormal uric acid accumulation and restore metabolic balance. Simultaneously, environmental control: Maintaining a stocking density of ≤3 geese / ㎡, strengthening ventilation and dehumidification, and avoiding cold and damp environments that induce gout. This invention significantly reduces the incidence of gout in geese (incidence rate ≤5%) through multi-dimensional synergistic intervention. It constructs a gout prevention system for geese through "environmental purification + metabolic protection + immune enhancement", which not only ensures breeding safety, but also optimizes breeding efficiency by reducing diseases and improving health.

[0038] Precautions for implementing this invention: 1. Protective equipment must be worn when handling hypochlorous acid. The solution should be stored in a sealed container away from light at 5-25℃ and should not be stored with acids or alkalis.

[0039] 2. If geese refuse to drink, stop providing water and conduct tests. If necessary, provide clean water for 12 hours first. It is necessary to control the protein and calcium content of the feed and observe the condition of the flock to adjust the plan in a timely manner.

[0040] The following specific embodiments illustrate the solution proposed in this invention: Example 1: Basic Plan for a Small-Scale Meat Goose Farm (500-1000 birds, 100-day cycle) Disinfection Management: Hypochlorous acid products, through tiered disinfection (such as regular disinfection of the breeding environment and drinking water system), can effectively kill pathogenic microorganisms in the environment, reduce the production of harmful gases such as ammonia, and reduce the risk of kidney mucosal irritation and impaired uric acid excretion function. Its safe and residue-free characteristics can continuously purify drinking water and breeding spaces, reducing environmental factors that induce urate deposition from the source. The hypochlorous acid described in this example is from Shanghai Yishu Technology Co., Ltd. Disinfecting goose houses, feed troughs, and exercise areas with hypochlorous acid: To disinfect goose houses, first clean up feces and debris and rinse thoroughly, then prepare a solution at a concentration of 100 ppm. During operation, spray the walls, floor, and corners of the goose house thoroughly. Feed troughs and other equipment can be soaked or repeatedly sprayed. Soaking time is 40 minutes, followed by 45 minutes of action, then ventilation and drying. Repeat once a week. Thorough disinfection is required after geese are sold and before new geese enter the house to kill pathogens and reduce the risk of disease. Add 15 ppm to the drinking water daily and flush it in the evening. Thoroughly disinfect with 200ppm after the geese are sold and before new geese are brought into the shed.

[0041] Micronutrient supplementation: Choose AQUA ELECTRA's Q life water from Germany. Dilute it 1:100 for geese aged 20-70 days (50 days total) and add it to their drinking water every morning. For 100 geese, use 200-300 mL of the undiluted solution daily. Q life water is a micronutrient solution containing sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium ions, sulfates, carbonates, and bicarbonates. It can neutralize free radicals generated by metabolic disorders in geese, reduce oxidative damage to the kidneys, protect kidney excretion function, provide a healthy physiological basis for uric acid metabolism, alleviate the effects of high calcium and high protein in feed, and restore metabolic balance.

[0042] Environmental control: density 3 geese / ㎡, humidity in the shed maintained at 55%-60%, ventilation twice a day (1.5 hours each time), ammonia ≤15ppm, and geese's average daily outdoor activity ≥2 hours.

[0043] Results: The incidence of gout was 4%, and the survival rate was 92%.

[0044] Example 2: Enhanced breeding goose farm program (300-500 geese, 120-day cycle) It also uses Q life water stock solution from AQUA ELECTRA in Germany and hypochlorous acid from Shanghai Yishu Technology Co., Ltd.

[0045] Disinfection Management: Use hypochlorous acid to disinfect goose houses, feed troughs, and exercise areas. Before disinfecting the goose house with hypochlorous acid, clean away feces and debris and rinse thoroughly. Then prepare a solution at a concentration of 80 ppm. During operation, spray the walls, floor, and corners of the goose house thoroughly. Feed troughs and other equipment can be soaked or repeatedly sprayed. Soak for 40 minutes, allow to act for 45 minutes, then ventilate and dry. Repeat every 5 days. Before geese are sold / entered the house, spray with 200 ppm hypochlorous acid + ventilate for 3 hours + spray with 150 ppm hypochlorous acid. Provide drinking water twice daily (12 ppm hypochlorous acid).

[0046] Micronutrient supplementation: Dilute at a ratio of 1:100 for 15-75 days old (60 days in total), and adjust to a high dose of 1:80 every Wednesday.

[0047] 3. Environmental control: Density 2 birds / ㎡, indoor humidity 60%-65%, ventilation twice a day (two hours each time), ammonia ≤15ppm. If the ammonia concentration approaches 15ppm during the egg-laying period, ventilation should be extended immediately. The site should be equipped with a sunshade and drinking water point. Outdoor activities should be ≥3 hours per day.

[0048] Results: The incidence of gout was 2.3%, the survival rate was 95%, the egg production rate was 85%, and the fertilization rate of hatching eggs was 88%.

[0049] Example 3: Comparative Example (Conventional Aquaculture without Specific Prevention and Control Plan) 1. Disinfection management: Use ordinary chlorine-containing disinfectant. The environment is disinfected once every two weeks, with no clear control over the concentration (about 50-80 ppm). Only the floor of the goose house is sprayed. The drinking water is not disinfected. The waterers are only rinsed once a week.

[0050] 2. Micronutrient addition: No special micronutrient preparations were used; only conventional compound vitamins were added to the feed (without specific formulation).

[0051] 3. Environmental control: Stocking density is 4.5 birds / m² (medium and small meat geese) and 3.5 birds / m² (breeding geese); ventilation is carried out randomly, with a cumulative ventilation time of ≤1 hour per day, and the ammonia concentration in the shed often reaches 25-30ppm; there is no control over the humidity in the shed, which is often below 50% in summer and above 70% in the rainy season; the outdoor activity time of the geese is ≤1 hour, and there is no outdoor activity at all on some cloudy and rainy days.

[0052] 4. Supporting management: The protein content of the feed is 22%-24%, the calcium content is not clearly controlled, and the calcium-phosphorus ratio has not been adjusted.

[0053] result: Small to medium-sized meat geese (100-day cycle): gout incidence rate 18%, survival rate 78%; Breeding geese (120-day cycle): gout incidence rate 15%, survival rate 82%, egg production rate 70%, fertilization rate of hatching eggs 75%.

[0054] In summary, it can be seen that the breeding method provided by this invention can significantly reduce the incidence of gout, increase the survival rate of geese to over 95%, effectively improve egg production rate during the breeding cycle, and significantly enhance the economic benefits of large-scale breeding.
