Application And Research Of The Technique Of Breedingrabbits With Highanimal Welfare

Animal welfare is to make animal life healthy,comfortable,safe,well-fed,able to express nature,and from suffering and fear.It consists of five basic elements:① providing animals with safe and clean water and feed for keeping their health and energy free from hunger and thirst---physiological welfare;② providing animals with a safe and comfortable place to live and protecting animals from Disadvantage---Environmental Welfare,③ Prevention and treatment of epidemics for animals,protection from pain and injury---Health and Welfare,④ Adequate space for animals,Appropriate supporting facilities and allied animal partners,Make it free to express the normal behavior---psychological welfare,⑤ ensure that animals have the external conditions to avoid mental suffering and disposal methods,so that animals from fear and grief-behavioral benefits.Animal Welfare developed earlier than the leading European and American countries have been constantly implementing the concept of animal welfare and put it into practice in the form of law.At the same time,as countries and international organizations continue to raise the demand for animal welfare,their origin in the sale of animal products in their own country must be manufactured in accordance with the standards set by their laws,otherwise the import of animal products of origin will be terminated.As a result,animal welfare has become one of the new means of world trade barriers.In recent years,China’s aquaculture industry has suffered huge losses due to animal welfare issues.Rabbit contains nutrients and digestion and absorption of nutrients are higher than a variety of livestock and poultry,with "three high,three low" characteristics,namely,high lysine,high protein,high digestibility,low cholesterol,low fat And low energy,in addition to long-term consumption of rabbit meat can significantly reduce the incidence of cardiovascular disease.With the progress of society and the development of productive forces,the rabbit breeding industry has entered an era of intensive and intensive breeding mode.Adopting factory-oriented and standard management methods,raising stocking density,fast turnover of rabbits and operating efficiency,providing products with high quality and low price for the market,but there are serious animal welfare problems.At present,domestic enterprises have already cooperated with European and American countries on the breeding mode of high animal welfare level.According to the current EU quadrupeds Association of production standards breeding base construction,breeding,slaughtering,processing all sectors meet the technical requirements of the four claw associations,and by the association is responsible for supervision.The main technical difference between the high-welfare rabbit-raising model and the ordinary rabbit-raising model is that it is more in line with the needs of animals and their physiological habits,such as group living,adequate space for activities,suitable exercise and hidden places,molars toys,adequate and clean drinking water,Nutritious and adequate feed,good ventilation exhaust harmful gases to bring clean and fresh air,efficient cleaning of excrement and disinfection of machinery and equipment.In this study,the fecundity rate of females was comparatively analyzed(76.03%for welfare rabbits and 72.75%for ordinary rabbits)through data records of high animal welfare level and common factory-made rabbits in the same period,The data of litter selection(7.88 for welfare rabbits and 7.64 for ordinary rabbits),survival rate of crossbred rabbits(96.41%for welfare rabbits and 96.1%for ordinary rabbits),survival rate of slaughter of rabbits Data(93.76%for welfare rabbits and 95.64%for ordinary rabbits),average weight of slaughter data(2.17kg per rabbit for welfare and 2.28kg for ordinary rabbits),slaughter day data 72.93 days,70.31 days for ordinary rabbits),feed ratio(3.75 for welfare rabbits and 3.41 for ordinary rabbits),slaughter costs(welfare rabbits is 14.74 yuan/kg,ordinary rabbits are 13.43 yuan/kg),etc.Data,come to two modes on the impact of production indicators.Combining the cost of farming and the comparison of sales price,the economic benefits(welfare raising rabbit is 5.27 yuan/kg,ordinary raising rabbit is 2.57 yuan/kg)are affected by these two modes.The results showed that the litter size,litter size,litter size and litter size of rabbits in high animal welfare mode were significantly increased,while the survival rate of litter rabbits was not significantly increased.The survival rate of rabbits was reduced,the slaughter weight was decreased and the slaughter age was delayed.Meat ratio increased significantly,resulting in high animal welfare mode of production costs higher than the normal mode.However,due to the welfare of rabbits purchase price higher than ordinary rabbits,and the price difference is higher than the difference between the cost of production,so the economic benefits of raising rabbit mode of welfare than ordinary rabbits.In order to further promote the development of animal welfare in China and avoid the risk of trade barriers,this paper puts forward suggestions from the aspects of national legislation,non-governmental supervision,personnel training,international cooperation,industrial development and the development of alternatives.
