In recent years, food safety has attracted more and more attention from consumers. In addition, with the announcement of Document No. 194 of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, the advantages of antibiotics in livestock and poultry breeding have gradually faded away due to problems such as residues. Natural pollution-free The development of veterinary pharmaceutical products and natural feed additives has attracted increasing attention. Zhejiang Jindakang Animal Health Co., Ltd. keeps up with the pace of the times, from research and development to actual combat, to deal with various sudden diseases in pig farms, and to achieve effective prevention and treatment of "one disease, one drug, one disease, one product". A few days ago, a reporter from "Pig Pocket" conducted an exclusive interview with two teachers, Jin Dakang veterinarian Ou Bin and veterinarian Zhang Lizhao, to learn about Jin Dakang's practice of traditional Chinese veterinary medicine in dealing with swine diseases, and asked about the future of traditional Chinese veterinary medicine in my country.

Q1 "Zhudou": What do you think of the application prospects of Chinese veterinary drugs? What obstacles do you think currently exist in the development of traditional Chinese veterinary medicine?

Ou Bin: Traditional Chinese veterinary medicine refers to pieces and preparations made from natural plants, animals and minerals, and are used under the guidance of traditional Chinese veterinary medicine theory. Drugs for preventing and treating animal diseases and improving production performance. Traditional Chinese veterinary medicine is a traditional medicine that has been passed down for thousands of years in my country. It is also an empirical medicine and practical medicine. The theory of traditional Chinese veterinary medicine is the basis for the existence and development of traditional Chinese veterinary medicine. Thousands of years of application practice have proven that traditional Chinese veterinary medicine has the advantages of significant preventive and therapeutic effects, relatively small toxic and side effects on livestock and poultry, no or low residues in animal foods, and is not easy to develop drug resistance, especially in the diagnosis and treatment of certain diseases. It is unique in its treatment. Today, when food safety issues are sensitive, the development of natural pollution-free traditional Chinese veterinary drug products and natural feed additives has attracted increasing attention. The development of traditional Chinese veterinary drugs is facing an unprecedented opportunity. Vigorous research and development of traditional Chinese veterinary drugs and traditional Chinese veterinary feed additives is an important area for the development of my country's veterinary drug industry and an important way to improve the international competitiveness of my country's veterinary drug products.

The biggest obstacles to the current development of traditional Chinese veterinary medicine are mainly as follows: 1. The recognition of traditional Chinese veterinary medicine by breeding enterprises is generally low: as we all know, most of the clinical veterinary medicine talents trained in China in recent decades are Western medicine Currently, many mainstream veterinarians use the concept of Western medicine to evaluate traditional Chinese veterinary medicines, resulting in low acceptance of traditional Chinese veterinary medicines. 2. Lack of talents in traditional Chinese veterinary medicine: At present, major domestic agricultural colleges and universities have very few talents in training traditional Chinese veterinary medicine, resulting in a shortage of talents. 3. Insufficient medicinal material resources: mainly reflected in the competition between animals and humans for medicine and medicinal material cultivation. Nowadays, wild medicinal material resources are scarce. Most Chinese medicines are cultivated artificially. However, Chinese medicines are said to be "authentic medicinal materials", which results in good There are not enough medicinal materials, animals compete with people for medicines, the prices of medicinal materials are rising, and the production cost of traditional Chinese veterinary medicines is too high. 4. The quality of medicinal materials is uneven: the origin, harvest season, processing method, etc. of Chinese medicinal materials have a great impact on product quality. In addition, the Chinese medicinal materials market is in chaos such as adulteration and adulteration, and the low detection threshold has led to the quality level of similar products on the market. Inconsistency can easily induce farmers to think that "TCMs are useless". The improvement of quality standards of TCMs is currently the bottleneck in the development of TCMs. 5. The production and processing of Chinese veterinary drugs are relatively backward: Different components of Chinese medicinal materials require different extraction processes, but many varieties still use the most traditional water extraction and alcohol precipitation method for extraction. Not only are no effective active ingredients extracted, it has a negative impact on product quality. And it causes a huge waste of traditional Chinese medicine resources.

Q2 "Pig Pocket": From a marketing perspective, do pig farmers have any bias against Chinese veterinary drugs? What are the main ones? How to solve?

Ou Bin: Indeed, at this stage, pig farmers have a relatively large prejudice against Chinese veterinary drugs: for example, most veterinarians use Western medical concepts to evaluate the effects of traditional Chinese veterinary drugs, resulting in the vast majority of pig farmers It is said that Chinese veterinary medicine is only suitable for routine health care, and it is unreliable to treat key diseases. Coupled with the fact that my country's traditional Chinese veterinary drug industry was not standardized in the past few years, many companies mixed traditional Chinese veterinary drugs with Western medicines and faked traditional Chinese veterinary drugs (using drug residues to produce traditional Chinese veterinary drugs), etc., which has greatly reduced the confidence of the majority of breeders in traditional Chinese veterinary drugs.

In order for traditional Chinese veterinary drugs to be recognized by the majority of farmers, we believe that: first, the national level must formulate strict production, management, and supervision mechanisms to control from the source whether production companies are qualified to produce traditional Chinese veterinary drugs. Secondly, we need to cultivate more Chinese veterinary medicine talents so that the majority of breeders can have a more comprehensive understanding of Chinese veterinary medicine.

Q3 "Pig Pocket": What technical guidance do you think is needed for the use of Chinese veterinary drugs in pig breeding?

Ou Bin: In fact, the clinical use of Chinese veterinary drugs is very simple and does not require too much guidance, because companies have already considered the convenience of product use when developing and producing Chinese veterinary drugs. As long as the farmer clearly diagnoses the condition of the pigs in the farm and follows the dosage and course of treatment prescribed by the company, he or she can achieve very good results. For example, in terms of syndrome differentiation in traditional Chinese medicine, human syndrome differentiation is individual syndrome differentiation, but animals are raised in groups, so animal syndrome differentiation is based on group syndrome differentiation and then treatment, so that the same drugs can be used at different stages of the disease of the animals to have very good effects. treatment effect. For example, the traditional Chinese veterinary drugs developed and produced by our Jindakang Company are all based on the characteristics of a certain disease in animals, and we develop special traditional Chinese veterinary drugs with the characteristics of "one disease, one drug, one disease, one product", such as; Supai is used for PRRS, pig After the occurrence of PRRS in the farm, the use of Supai can exert a good effect; Qiqiqi is aimed at viral diarrhea. After viral diarrhea occurs in medium and large pigs, the single use of Qiqiqi can quickly cure it.

Q4 "Pig Pocket": How do Chinese veterinary drugs help healthy pig breeding?

Zhang Lizhao: Bacterial resistance is common in large-scale pig farms. The long-term use of low-dose antibiotics in pig farms has led to an increasing number of drug-resistant strains in pig farms. The blind use of new antibiotics and broad-spectrum antibiotics has also artificially cultivated multi-drug resistance in pathogenic bacteria. Professor Tang Zhaoxin believes that the formation of bacterial resistance is much faster than the development of new drugs. Chinese herbal medicine often regulates the body's non-specific immune function to inhibit and eliminate harmful factors in animals, thereby enhancing the body's disease resistance. The use of Chinese herbal medicine can greatly increase the animal's resistance to certain infectious diseases. As feed additives, Chinese herbal medicines not only promote animal digestion and absorption, improve feed conversion rate and production performance, but also improve animal health and regulate the body's non-specific immune function. The natural organic compounds in traditional Chinese veterinary medicine are safe, low-toxic, less likely to develop drug resistance, and have less residues. They are green veterinary medicine products. The use of traditional Chinese veterinary drugs can improve the production performance of livestock and poultry, improve the quality of meat and eggs, and can reflect the integrity of the drug effect and the naturalness of traditional Chinese medicine raw materials. Traditional Chinese medicine does not destroy the normal flora in the intestine and is conducive to the growth of beneficial bacteria. While preventing and treating diseases, it can improve the feed conversion rate and reduce breeding costs.

Ou Bin: The practice of traditional Chinese veterinary medicine in pig raising can not only provide health care, prevent and treat pig diseases, but also improve the production performance of pigs, improve the quality of pork products, and improve the quality of feed. Many farmers tend to confuse health care and prevention. Prevention and health care have the same purpose, which is to prevent and treat diseases before they occur. However, prevention and health care are achieved in different ways. Prevention targets pathogens, while health care targets the body. That is, the preventive effect of traditional Chinese medicine is realized through "eliminating evil spirits", and the health-care effect of traditional Chinese medicine is realized through "strengthening the body." Secondly, traditional Chinese medicine can improve the production performance of animals by replenishing qi and blood, strengthening the stomach and digestion, promoting digestion and absorption, and reducing stress, thereby increasing the output of animal products, improving the production performance of sows, and improving the growth rate of fattening pigs. heavy effect. Third, the use of natural active substances rich in traditional Chinese medicine can improve the meat quality of pork. Fourth, many traditional Chinese medicines have the functions of supplementing nutrition, adding flavor, deodorizing, and preventing mildew and corrosion. As feed additives, they can improve feed nutrition, stimulate animal appetite, and extend the shelf life of feed. It can supplement feed nutrition, increase feed flavor, remove odor, preserve freshness, and extend the shelf life of feed. As the government pays great attention to animal-derived food safety issues and the public's awareness of the importance of food safety continues to increase, traditional Chinese veterinary medicine will surely play a greater role in the green and healthy breeding of pigs.

Q5 "Pig Pocket": What experience has Jin Dakang accumulated in helping pig farmers prevent and treat diseases, and how did he do it?

Ou Bin: Veterinarian Ou Bin. Disease is one of the important factors that plagues the development of the pig industry. The clinical use of traditional Chinese veterinary drugs must achieve the expected efficacy: first, solve the symptomatic problem and be highly targeted; second, the product should be easy to use, and can be mixed with ingredients and administered with drinking water; third, The third is that the medicinal materials and medicines are good. Jindakang's unique formula of one disease, one medicine, one symptom, one product, artificially combines products with syndromes, making it more convenient and simple for pig farmers to use the products.

Examples: 1. If a mixed infection of Streptococcus and Haemophilus parasuis occurs in the middle and late stages of nursery. Most clinical veterinarians only use antibiotics to treat bacteria, but the treatment effect is always unsatisfactory, and diseases occur repeatedly in pig farms. However, whether the Jindakang technical team is treating the disease clinically or preventing and controlling the disease in the early stage, the more direct thing is to control the source of the disease, which is PRRS. As long as PRRS, the source of all diseases, is controlled, secondary infections by related bacteria will naturally occur. Just less. Active PRRS is prone to secondary bacterial infection, and relevant research reports have already concluded that Streptococcus and Haemophilus parasuis are the shadow bacteria of PRRS.

2. Porcine transmissible gastroenteritis: When porcine transmissible gastroenteritis occurs, most pig farms use "blocking" methods to control pig diarrhea, but the clinical results are minimal, so it is believed that pig There is no cure for infectious gastroenteritis. However, Jin Dakang’s technical team used syndrome differentiation and treatment, using the traditional Chinese medicine product “Qi Qiqi” to treat the disease in a “sparing” way, which can achieve the miraculous effect of “one meal effective, two cures”.
