Why are wild boars not afraid of swine fever, but pig farms are more dead. What is the truth about African swine fever?
In the statistics of national authorities, there are few cases of wild boars infected with swine fever, not completely absent, but the number is very small, and compared with the large-scale infection of pig farms, it is basically negligible. Wild boars will also come to human activities to forage, especially in the autumn season, many wild boars will run out of the mountains and forests to forage in the farmers' crops, there is a chance to be infected with swine fever, but wild boars infected with swine fever and die very little.
In comparison, the pig breeding conditions of pig farms are 10 million times better than that of wild boars, vaccination, careful feeding, wind can not blow, rain can not be drenched. However, it still does not change the fact that once infected, it will be wiped out. This has caused huge losses to pig farms as well as farmers. Decades later, there is still no way to solve this African swine fever, and vaccination is more like an ornament...
Therefore, many netizens have said that this African swine fever is actually a huge capital conspiracy. Many people even suspect that the African swine fever is transmitted through feed. It is said that foreign big capital has invested African swine fever virus in feed raw materials, so that some small and medium-sized pig farms in China and the pigs of farmers and individual farmers are directly infected with swine fever, and then increase their drug dosage and feeding costs, and even the collective death of pigs. In this way, these foreign capitals can manipulate China's pig market and monopolize the pig market, so as to harvest leeks and make huge profits.
In fact, such conspiracy theories are not groundless, after all, what can foreign capital do for the sake of profit? Such examples are not only in the agricultural planting and breeding sector, but foreign capital has penetrated almost all walks of life in China. You can't have the heart to hurt people, and you can't have the heart to defend people.
China's pig industry should refer to the case of how wild boars are rarely infected with African swine fever. Summarize a more suitable pig breeding model, reduce the infection rate of African swine fever, reduce the use of drugs, and reduce mortality, only in this way can we reduce the cost of breeding and sustainable development. Otherwise, a swine fever will return to the pre-liberation period overnight...
Why are wild boars rarely infected with African swine fever?
1. Wild boars have a huge space for activity. Wild boars basically live in mountains and inaccessible places. Since there is not much food in nature, wild boars must expand their space to eat more food to survive, so wild boars are running around all over the mountains to feed. The amount of activity and space is the fundamental reason why wild boars are rarely infected with swine fever.
2. Wild boars are wild and strong, and their ability to resist diseases is strong in itself. Wild boars reproduce themselves in nature, have very strong adaptability, strong vitality, and run all over the mountains every day, exercise a lot, practice strong physical fitness, and can resist some external interference and virus invasion to the greatest extent, so wild boars not only rarely get sick, but also have a certain ability to resist African swine fever.
3. In the mountains where wild boars are active, the mountains are high and dense, and the temperature is low, which is not conducive to the spread and spread of African swine fever. Unlike the high-density pigs raised in large pig farms, they are raised one by one, and even some rich bosses install air conditioning in the pig barn in order to cool down the pigs, which is actually counterproductive. Everyone has air conditioning disease, can pigs be spared?
Fourth, wild boars mainly eat grass in the mountains and forests. These herbs in the wild are actually the best medicines. Wild boars also feed on small insects and animals, such as earthworms and even snakes. Of course, it is mainly based on plant stems and leaves, because there are not so many small animals in nature.
Therefore, China's pig breeding industry should develop more farmers to breed, do not engage in high-density breeding, pig breeds can be cultivated with wild boars, and to maintain the wide range of sources of wild boars, wild boar breeds can be collected from all over the country to breed. In this way, there will be no single gene, and the pigs will be bred with fewer diseases.
