Each farm has its own unique set of technical management practices, whether effective or not. The quality of technical management directly impacts the smooth operation and productivity of the farm. As a professional technical manager, it's essential to follow certain key steps in your daily work:
First and foremost, you must act as a technician and understand the farm thoroughly. This includes knowing the owner, employees, the farm’s history, current breeding status, documentation, and reporting systems. You should analyze all available data and communicate effectively with both the owner and staff to identify existing issues. Keep a detailed work diary to document everything you observe and learn. Then, find the right time to discuss these findings with the owner. Once their approval is obtained, implement necessary changes in an effective and timely manner. Ultimately, as a technical manager, your goal is to help the farm achieve good economic returns, ensure seamless integration between the company and the farm, and create a win-win situation for everyone involved—employees, customers, and the company itself.
In recent years, with the rapid expansion of pig farms and increased international exchanges, the health condition of many pig herds in China has deteriorated, leading to more complex challenges for livestock workers. To address this, several critical areas need attention:
1. **Improving Breeding Performance**: The first major issue affecting reproduction is disease. It is crucial for technical staff to prioritize solving these problems. Develop a reasonable vaccination schedule, including appropriate doses, timing, and personnel training. Regularly assess the immune response to ensure effectiveness.
2. **Regular Health Monitoring and Disease Prevention**: Conduct routine health checks and preventive care tailored to specific herds. Understand the disease patterns and epidemiology, and strictly manage medication dosages and treatment durations.
3. **Biosecurity Measures**: Biosecurity is a top priority. As we know, diseases often enter through the mouth, so maintaining a clean and healthy environment is essential. Ensure high standards of hygiene, perform regular disinfection, and create a comfortable living space for pigs to support smooth production.
4. **Nutritional Management**: Pay close attention to feed quality and formulation. Ensure that the feed-to-meat ratio is balanced and suitable for each stage of growth. Proper nutrition is fundamental to animal health and productivity.
5. **Appropriate Grouping and Housing Conditions**: Organize pigs into suitable groups based on age and size, monitor stocking density, and ensure that water supply systems are well maintained and functional.
6. **Early Detection and Disease Prevention**: Continuously monitor the herd's health, detect any signs of illness early, and take prompt action to prevent outbreaks.
In terms of staff management, it's about people. First, you must manage yourself well—be disciplined, work hard, and think critically. Always ask "why" before taking action. Lead by example, especially in front of the owner and employees. Build trust through consistent behavior and clear communication. Only then can you effectively manage your team and drive positive change on the farm.
