The article presents the main results of vitamin-grass meal feeding of safflower, sainfoin and meadow clover to young and dairy cattle in order to increase their resistance to various diseases. The fundamental direction in the development of agriculture in Russia is to multiply the realization of livestock products and production volumes.
Over the past 5 years in cattle farms of all categories various diseases of non-infectious nature have been registered in cattle in about 45% of cases. Modern cattle breeding in Perm Region is developing on an industrial basis. At the same time, large livestock complexes are overloaded with cattle, and there is a lack of walking, exclusion of insolation, uncontrolled and unreasonable feeding
of monofeed, etc. Violations of the technological cycle of receiving and growing young cattle, numerous stress situations – all this inhibits the full creation of immunity and negatively affects the physiological condition of cows. A significant part of modern drugs contains some antibiotics as an active ingredient. Based on the above, currently in the livestock industry of Perm Region much
attention is paid to the production of phytocomplexes. This will allow specialists of the zooveterinary service of agroindustrial complexes to introduce environmentally safe additives into rations to strengthen the immune status and safety of farm animals, as well as to improve the quality of the resulting products.
