Application of Dextrose Monohydrate in Livestock and Poultry Farms

Dextrose monohydrate is good for raising chickens. Many chicken farmers think that the cost of raising chickens with glucose is higher, so they use white sugar instead, thinking that the effect is the same, but this is not the case. First of all, the chemical composition of the two is different. Feeding glucose to chickens can directly supply capacity. White sugar needs to be further decomposed, and the final product is glucose.

The role and dosage of glucose in raising chickens.

1. Chicks are prescribed medicine to resist stress.

When chicken farmers just receive the chickens at home, whether they are freshly hatched or de-warmed chickens, after long-distance transportation, the chickens are dehydrated and hungry. Glucose will relieve this stress. The general dosage is 3% to 5% of drinking water, which means adding 1.5 to 2.5 kilograms of glucose powder to 50 kilograms of water.

2. Protect the liver and nourish the kidneys.

For liver enlargement caused by over-medication, drugs that protect the liver and kidneys must be used. Glucose can promote metabolism and protect the liver. To protect the liver, it must be combined with VC original powder. Usage: Mix 5% glucose with water, 1g VC is mixed with 15 to 20 kilograms of water, just make chickens drink at night. Combined with baking soda powder (the usual dosage is two thousandths), note that both glucose and VC must be selected from the original powder for the best effect.

3. Detoxification.

The dosage of glucose detoxification is about 5%, and it must be combined with VC original powder, 1g mixed with 10 kilograms of water.

4. Treatment of hypoglycemia.

Generally, chickens should drink water for 6 to 8 hours, using 8% to 10% glucose raw powder. Glucose powder has low cost and great use. It is very helpful for the chickens to quickly recover their physical fitness, so it is sought after by the majority of chicken farmers.

Glucose is also a wonderful way to raise pigs. Feeding sows a little after they give birth can achieve unexpected results!

Feeding glucose to sows after giving birth has two effects:

One is that sows need to consume a lot of energy during the delivery process, and they cannot be fed a large amount of food in time to help the sows recover after delivery, otherwise it will easily cause indigestion in the sows. Feeding glucose can not only help sows recover quickly but also prevent indigestion.

Another is that glucose can play a detoxifying role. If the blood congestion in the sow's body after delivery is not discharged in time, it will be absorbed by the body and cause blood stasis, which is not conducive to the sow's postpartum recovery. The use of glucose can help sows speed up the metabolism of toxins in the body and play a detoxification function.

Dextrose monohydrate has more uses when feeding sows after parturition:

1) Used when mixing medicine, it can mask the bitter taste of the medicine and maintain the feed intake of the pigs. In addition, after the glucose melts, it will form a certain viscosity, which can stick the medicine with the feed particles, making the medicine mix more evenly.

2) Used in first aid. For pigs with hypothermia, oral administration or intravenous infusion of glucose can quickly restore the body temperature of sick pigs.

3) Used when poisoning. Used when sick pigs are poisoned by mycotoxins or drugs. It can promote the metabolism of toxins in the sick pigs and relieve the symptoms of poisoning. Especially for mycotoxin poisoning, a large dose of glucose can be used. Generally, 20-25kg is added to one ton of feed and used for 7-10 days to achieve a certain detoxification effect.

4) Energy supply. Sometimes sick pigs suffer from high fever, loss of appetite. At this time, adding glucose to the drinking water can supply energy to the sick pigs and promote the recovery of the sick pigs.
