1. The selection of excellent varieties is the most important thing in order to obtain the high efficiency of raising sheep, and attention should be paid to the selection of elite goats. In order to improve economic efficiency, Yangyang households should actively select and improve hybrids. They should be introduced into rams such as Boer sheep, Nanjiang Huangyang and Matou sheep. The female rams should be selected for large body size, rib arches, and backs. Wide waist, large belly without sagging, wide and deep hindquarters, round and compact breasts, large and neat nipples, lively and vivid style, fast walking and other characteristics of the local ewe breeding.
2. To improve the herd in the breeding, and constantly improve the structure of the sheep, has an important role in the growth of goats and increase economic efficiency. Therefore, old and weak sheep, infertile ewes, and habitual abortion ewes need to be eliminated as soon as possible, used as fattening sheep for slaughter, and young ewes should be constantly added to keep the number of ewes in the sheep at 70%. Keep the sheep above 50%. The young male lambs within 1 month after birth are all cut and fattened to maintain and improve their hybrid advantages. The suitable breeding age for goats is: the ram is under 5 years old and the ewes are under 6 years old, so as to ensure the proportion and quality of the male and female ewes in the prime year and the exuberant fecundity of the sheep.
3. Seasonal breeding ewes should avoid cold and hot summer seasons, generally choose spring and autumn seasons with good climate and abundant pasture. The spring should be carried out from April to May. Lambs will be born from September to October. Autumn will be conducted from October to November. Lambs will be born from March to April of the following year. This kind of seasoning is suitable and the lamb production is more concentrated, which is conducive to the centralized management of lambs.
4. The intensive breeding sheep rams and ewes are the basis for the development of the flock, especially the rams, which have a great influence on the quality of the flock. During the breeding season, sufficient supplementary feeds with high protein content should be ensured, with 2% to 3% of bone meal or calcium carbonate, 1% to 2% of salt, allowing them to eat more grass, supplementing the concentrate, and feeding more vitamins. The juicy green feed ensures the medium condition of the ram. The ewes should strengthen their feeding and management according to their body condition and nutritional needs at different periods (before, during, and after lactation). Like rams, they should maintain a good body condition and a good body condition. Conditional breeding techniques should be improved and artificial insemination should be adopted to reduce the cost of raising and improve the economic benefits of raising sheep.
5. Multi-care lambs Lambs like to live in a clean, dry, warm and comfortable environment, especially in the winter and spring seasons. Without careful attention, lambs are very susceptible to various diseases. Therefore, in the spring when the temperature suddenly drops or swells, it is necessary to strengthen the protective measures to adjust the temperature at any time; in the cold season, we must appropriately increase the stocking density, thicken the bedding layer, and usually prevent the rain from getting wet.
6. Grazing grazing and fattening sheep Grazing should be performed in pastures farther in order to give full play to the fattening sheep's feeding capacity and make full use of forage resources. Nursing ewes, late pregnant ewes, lambs, and frail sheep should be grazing in pastures that are closer to the pens. The conditional cultivators should adopt the zoning and rotation grazing on a quarterly basis and turn grassland grazing on a district-by-region basis to ensure the quality of pastures and speed up the fattening of goats.
7. Grass-raising and sheep-raising The rural areas have limited conditions for raising sheep, especially in areas where there are few pastures. Grass-feeding measures are also needed. Artificial grasses are used to make up for the shortage of fodder. It is not only beneficial to the growth of forage grass, but also can store grass and grass. Winter to solve the problem of lack of material in winter and spring. The area of ​​grass should be based on sheep production and the amount of livestock on the pasture. Generally raising 30 to 50 goats, planting 1334 square meters of pasture; raising more than 100, should plant 3335 square meters. Forage species used perennial forages such as Rumex, S. oleifera, Russian feed, and alfalfa.
8. Prevent diseases Firstly, do a good job of immunization. Early in the spring and fall, give goats foot-and-mouth disease, triple prevention and control (goat epidemic, enterotoxemia, sputum, lamb dysentery), and sheep aphthous, pleuropneumonia, acne, etc. Immune injection. Followed by preventive deworming work. The common internal parasites of goats mainly include hepatic schistosomiasis, lung filarial, and gastrointestinal nematodes, and avermectin, dichlorophenol, levamisole, albendazole, and other anthelmintic drugs can be used. Sheep should be dewormed once every season. When spraying body surface parasites, the liquid must be sprayed at the same time. Shelters and sites should be cleaned once a day, kept clean and sanitized regularly. The manure should be fixed in time or piled up in the septic tank for fermentation and disinfection.
