The overall economic efficiency of using synbiotic for the prevention of gastrointestinal diseases in calves in the production environment

Today, we can consider the need to use remedies based on probiotic microorganisms in the technology of growing young farm animals as proven. Prescribed for prevention purposes, they must be not only safe and effective, but also cost-effective for the consumer. The studies presented by us were carried out in order to calculate the overall economic efficiency of the use of the developed synbiotic agent for the prevention of gastrointestinal diseases in calves in a production environment. We carried out our work in accordance with the official methodology for determining the economic efficiency of veterinary measures, approved on February 21, 1997 by the head of the Veterinary Department of the Ministry of Agriculture of the Russian Federation V.M. Avilov. At the assay, 86 newborn calves were involved (SPK husbandary farm "Vtoraya Pyatiletka") - 63 calves from LLC "HLEBOROB" - 23 individuals). 31 were in the experimental group and 32 in the control group in the SPK breeding plant "Vtoraya Pyatiletka". And at the "HLEBOROB" farm 12 in the experimental group and 11 in the control group. From the third to the tenth day of life, the calves of the experimental groups were orally administered a daily dose of the synbiotic mixture two hours before morning feeding with an interval of 24 hours, in the amount of 2 doses per 10 kg of live body weight (1 dose ~ 109 CFU), dissolved at the rate of 1 dose / 0.5 ml of milk serum. According to the results of the experiments, the maximum profit in the experimental group was recorded - 30,925 rubles, which was 3 times higher than the value of the control, where this indicator was equal to 9,900 rubles, respectively.
