The temperature in summer is high. Many sows of pig farmers start to have diarrhea in piglets three days after giving birth, and it takes a long time. Heat stress has brought great negative effects to the pig industry, which has caused the industry to respond to heat. Radical attaches great importance. During this period of time, we received private messages from many farmers and friends asking if potassium diformate can be added to piglets to relieve diarrhea and some heat stress?

Regarding the reaction of piglets to heat stress:

1. Oral and injection of various therapeutic drugs have no effect, and the mortality rate of piglets in the delivery room is relatively high.

2. The piglets mainly showed that the feces pulled out were like yellow tofu flowers, some were like the yolk of salted eggs, and some were watery diarrhea. Individual piglets also vomited.

3. Many sows do not have milk, and some sows have inflammation of the uterus and low feed intake.

4. The pig house is in poor condition and the ground is particularly humid. Some pig pens are dark and not ventilated.

5. The temperature in some pig houses is extremely high because the roof is covered with stone tiles and is not ventilated. An electric fan is used to blow and cool. The wind in the pig house is all hot.

6. The sows of many breeders give birth on the farrowing bed in the farrowing room, and they do not eat feed when they catch up with the farrowing bed. The piglets had diarrhea when they were born.

7. The sows of many breeders are fed full-price feed and dry feed, resulting in a lack of drinking water for sows.

8. The water tower of the pig house is on the roof. The weather is hot, sows and piglets drink hot water, which makes the sows very irritable.

9. Many vaccines are not in place, the first-born sows are not small, and the proportion of Japanese encephalitis, stillbirths and mummies is relatively high. The surviving piglets had severe diarrhea.

10. Feed mildew is serious. Some sows are wet-mixed. They become rancid because they have not eaten cleanly. If the trough is not cleaned, the feed is always rotten and the sows do not like to eat.

11. The piglets were born without nasal drops of pseudorabies vaccine. Pseudorabies occurs during lactation, severe diarrhea, and high mortality.

12. Rotavirus is more rampant because it only infects piglets and the piglets are severely dehydrated.

In order to reduce the occurrence of heat stress in piglets and ensure healthy and normal growth performance, these steps are particularly important:

First, reasonable environmental management, ventilation, shading, and frequent water spraying;

Second, scientific nutrition collocation;

Third, increase feed additives, such as potassium diformate;

Fourth, adding potassium diformate to drinking water can improve the palatability of chickens and increase the amount of drinking water while replacing antibiotics.

Let's talk about the usefulness of potassium diformate piglet intestines that many farmers are concerned about: piglets fed with potassium diformate for heat stress love to eat, not diarrhea, and the mortality rate is reduced.

Product characteristics of potassium diformate: promote growth, inhibit bacteria and sterilize, improve the intestinal microflora; promote mineral absorption, increase feed conversion rate, and reduce feed-to-meat ratio.

Functions of potassium diformate:

1. Promote growth, increase daily gain and feed return.

2. Increase the rate of ketone body lean meat and change body shape.

3. Improve meat quality, increase slaughter rate, and no drug residues, green, safe and secure.

4. Contains organic acidifiers to promote appetite, stimulate animal appetite, and increase feed intake.

5. Strengthen the body with high stress, resist various stresses, improve physical fitness, accelerate metabolism, speed up recovery after illness, increase survival rate, and reduce disease occurrence.

6. Promote liver and kidney function and improve feed conversion rate.

Therefore, try adding potassium diformate to piglet feed to prevent heat stress, which can increase piglet's appetite, prevent diarrhea, and reduce mortality.
