Water is a very important resource for Silent Farm. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info But this water is not ordinary water, but the water that Li Sheng made out of the space.

In the past, the water of the space lake made the pasture on the farm a very profitable industry. And Li Sheng now wants to get another kind of water that may be even more special to the farm.

He was in space again, still in the creek.

The flow of the creek is not very large, because there are a lot of pebbles on both sides of the stream, and a lot of water flows through the pebble gaps in hiding.

He used the control of the water to remove the pebbles somewhere downstream of the creek, which formed a pool with a depth of more than one meter and an area of more than two hundred square meters. With this waterhole, there is a stable water source output point in the space. He docked at this waterhole and outside the farm.

The port of the connection point outside the farm is temporarily set up in the courtyard of the villa. The amount of water produced at this outlet is not large, and it looks like a small spring. But the water that came out was enough for him to experiment.

He planted two roses and two mulberry trees again. This time he washed the roots of both plants clean. One is made of ordinary soil, and the other is made of black soil from the cultivated land.

If he can't survive, he will have to give up. He couldn't go into the space to find dirt. The dirt in that creek is hard to find. Even if he has the heart to look for it, he may not be able to find much, and he can't form an industry at all.

"Boss, are you free?" Zhang Feng's phone called, and he could tell that his tone seemed to be relieved after the phone was connected.

During this time, Li Sheng's phone often couldn't get through during the day, and he could only call him at night if he had something.

Li Sheng asked him what was the matter. Zhang Feng said: "A small number of cattle in the No. 5 cattle pen had diarrhea symptoms, and Huang Bin diagnosed it and judged it to be acute infectious bovine enteritis. He recommends that symptomatic cattle be treated in isolation and that pen No. 5 be disinfected. ”

Huang Bin was the veterinarian he recruited during the Chinese National Day last year, and he came to work on the farm not long after the Chinese New Year. However, he can only work as an invisible veterinarian on the farm now, and he is also on probation.

Li Sheng was shocked at first, this was the first time that a cattle disease had appeared on the farm, and it was contagious. But after thinking about it, now that the cattle pen is fenced, the grazing density is much larger than before, and it is normal for some cattle to get sick. He said: "Just do what Huang Bin said." I'll go take a look. ”

He hung up the phone, changed into clothes, towed the helicopter out and flew straight to the No. 5 cattle pen.

His plane found an open space near the No. 5 cattle pen station. Zhang Feng was already in the No. 5 bullpen and was already waiting below when he saw the plane coming.

Li Sheng turned off the plane's engine before jumping off the plane, and asked Zhang Feng, who greeted him, "How is the situation?"

Zhang Feng frowned and said, "Huang Bin said that it was a highly contagious bacterial enteritis. Fortunately, it was discovered early, otherwise the current situation might have gotten out of control. But the situation is not optimistic, and we don't know how many infections the herd has. ”

When Li Sheng heard this, his brows furrowed, and he asked, "What about Huang Bin?"

"He was giving medicine to sick cattle in the isolation barn. ”

"Let's take a look. ”

Zhang Feng took Li Sheng to an independent cowshed. These barns are not very large, and they were mainly built to cope with those who want to produce cows. Each one is not large, and can only hold twenty or thirty cows, but there are more than twenty of them. This means that hundreds of cattle can be left in the barn at the same time. Huang Bin chose the most marginal one as the isolation cowshed, and the five sick cattle that had been found were locked inside.

The two came to the cowshed, where a man in a white coat and a mask was observing the sick cow. Seeing Li Sheng and them coming in, Huang Bin greeted him, sent two masks and said, "Boss, Manager Zhang." To be on the safe side, wear a mask first. ”

Li Sheng took the mask and put it on before asking him, "How is the situation now?"

"Medicine has been used and sick cattle have been registered. The condition of the sick cattle has basically stabilized and they have begun to eat. Diarrhea did not worsen either. Huang Bin took the two to the place where the sick cow was kept.

Each sick cow was kept in a separate place, and there was loose cow dung in the pen. However, Li Sheng found that the five cows were all half-sized cows. So he asked Huang Bin: "This calf is susceptible to enteritis?"

Huang Bin shook his head: "It's not certain yet." But I'm worried. Judging from the breeding records, the cattle on the farm have hardly used drugs except for vaccination, which shows that the resistance of the cattle is still very strong. The environment of the cattle pen is also relatively good. If it were a different cattle farm, if such a condition occurred, it would be uncontrollable now. ”

Li Sheng nodded, it is certain that the cattle on the farm are more resistant to disease than other farmed cattle. At least they eat grass, not corn.

He asked again, "What is the effect after the drug is administered now?"

"Because it was urgent, I used a broad-spectrum antibacterial oral drug for animal husbandry, but now it seems that the situation is fine. At least the cattle's condition was relieved. ”

Li Sheng saw that the sick cow still pulled out a little from time to time, but at least it was not so thin. He nodded and said, "You have handled these sick cattle very well. How's the prevention of the cattle pen?"

"I've asked workers to dispose of the loose manure of the sick cows, and I'm going to disinfect the grass near the manure on a small scale. My opinion when it is best to disinfect the entire cattle pen and all the cattle. He nodded to Zhang Feng before continuing. However, Manager Zhang said that the boss attaches great importance to the protection of the grassland and needs to ask for your advice. ”

Li Sheng was indeed worried that large-scale disinfection would pollute the pasture grass of the entire farm, and he asked, "What disinfectant do you plan to use?"

Huang Bin was speechless. If the cattle are released, they are likely to contaminate the pasture outside. The cattle cannot be let out, but the cattle on the farm are all staked, and disinfection will inevitably cause harm to the pasture, at least it will make the cattle unwilling to eat the grass that is being disinfected. He didn't know how to break this contradiction.

However, he still expressed his opinion: "The most economical and suitable way to disinfect a large area is to use quicklime." But quicklime can make a lot of changes to the soil, and the damage to the pasture is very serious. As for the method of using pesticides, he didn't say anything, because he knew that Li Sheng was very resistant to using pesticides. And with the use of pesticides, the cattle can only go hungry.

Quicklime produces a strong alkali when it is heated by water, and Li Sheng still remembers this junior high school chemistry knowledge. If quicklime had been used, the grass inside the entire pen might still be alive at the roots, but the blades of grass on the ground would have been dead. Moreover, the quicklime reaction will cause a drastic change in soil acidity, and he does not know if the grass roots in the cattle pen will be affected.

He hesitated for a moment and said, "Observe for a day." If the disease starts to spread, do what you say. ”

Huang Bin nodded. However, he took one look at the sick cow and said, "The cattle on the farm are sick." If not, we don't have a qualified veterinarian on the farm, and we can't keep a prescription for treatment. ”

Li Sheng thought for a moment and said, "What's the difference between reporting and not reporting?"

"If you don't report it, as long as the condition is under control, the workers won't tell the public. Everything is fine. I'm afraid that the disease will spread very badly. In that case, even if you want to, you can't hide it. Huang Bin thought for a moment and truthfully said his thoughts. "If notified. It is likely that all pens will be required to be disinfected. There will even be requests for the destruction of diseased cattle. ”

When Li Sheng heard this, he immediately decided to say, "Then observe for two days first." Let workers pay more attention to whether there are any newly sick cattle. He turned to Zhang Feng and said. "Lao Zhang, you ask the other cattle pens to transfer some workers over. The other cattle pens are a little harder for the time being. ”

He was forced to do so. He felt that after the report was issued, he might really be asked to extinguish the sick cattle, and to disinfect all the cattle pens and even all the pastures. The farm has enough cowsheds to say that it can be fed with hay. The problem is that there are almost no cowsheds on the farm.

If they are to be disinfected, these cattle can be stored outside, which can infect the pasture outside the cattle pen. It was a contradiction that the farm could not solve.

That's not unfounded, he doesn't have a good relationship with the animal epidemic prevention structure in the state of Pará. Last time, they made a big fool of themselves. Even if it's not a zoonotic disease, there are many ways for the other side to embarrass a farm. If nothing else, the mere requirement that the cattle not be sold until the disease is determined to be extinguished made him uncomfortable enough.

He finally said to Zhang Feng: "This matter must be kept secret. Don't tell anyone about the condition, and workers don't need to know too much. He was reminded of the previous leak of the farm rat infestation. He suspected that there was an inner ghost in the farm, but this inner ghost Zhang Dingbian had never been able to find it. Although he was only suspicious, he felt that he should be careful.

Zhang Feng also knows that Silent Farm is on the cusp right now, and any little thing will attract attention.

Li Sheng offered to go to the cattle pen to see the situation.

The three of them walked out of the bullpen, Li Sheng took off his mask, and asked Huang Bin as he walked: "How are you preparing for the medical practitioner exam?"

Huang Bin also took off his mask and replied: "My academic qualifications and work experience in China have been recognized by the assessment agency here, and I have signed up for the exam in a month." ”

"How sure are you?"

"There is no problem in practice. The theory exam is reading a book. I've been practicing oral conversation with my colleague lately, and the oral defense isn't a big problem. ”

Li Sheng nodded and said, "Try to pass the test at one time." As you can see, we're short of a veterinarian. ”

If there is a veterinarian, the farm's animals can be treated with drugs if they are ailmented, and some non-epidemic diseases can be treated instead of being slaughtered.

"I'll do my best. Huang Bin is quite satisfied with the work here.

Although it is now a probationary period, it is equivalent to 15,000 RMB a month, which is higher than that of domestic practicing veterinarians. Aside from missing family a little, everything is fine here. If he obtains a practicing certificate, he can get nearly 45,000 RMB a month, including food and accommodation, if such treatment is in China, I don't know how long it will take to get it.
