The Harm Caused by Molds in Animal Husbandry
2026-06-05
This year, in Shandong, Henan, and other regions, excessive rainfall has led to widespread mold contamination of corn. Mold poses a significant threat in animal husbandry; its mycotoxins primarily compromise livestock and poultry health, causing immunosuppression, organ damage, and reduced production performance, resulting in substantial economic losses.
I. Harm to Body Health
Mycotoxins impair the immune system, suppress antibody production, and increase the risk of secondary infections. Major target organ damage includes:
1. Liver : Swelling, necrosis, and hardening (aflatoxins);
2. Kidneys : Swelling, urate deposition (ochratoxin);
3. Digestive Tract : Gastritis, proventriculitis, enteritis;
4. Reproductive System : Decline in egg production rate and reduced fertilization rate (zearalenone).
II. Production Performance and Economic Impact
1. Growth retardation : Reduced feed intake, decreased feed conversion ratio, and slow weight gain;
2. Egg-laying Poultry and Meat Poultry : Decline in egg production, poor eggshell quality, and reduced egg weight; uneven growth and increased mortality in meat poultry;
3. Economic Losses : Increased treatment costs, rising culling rates, and reduced farming profitability.
III. Transmission and Prevention
Mycotoxins can be transmitted vertically through feed, bedding, or hatching eggs.
Preventive and control measures:
1. Strictly control the quality of feed ingredients to prevent mold growth.
2. Improve warehouse ventilation and add a mold‑removal agent (Mold‑Removal No. 1).
3. Use a mold-removal agent (Meiyijing) to break down toxins;
4. Regularly clean equipment, cleaning tanks, and material control systems thoroughly, leaving no死角.
De-Mold No. 1: Composition—allicin and imported nano‑scale adsorbents, primarily designed to adsorb and remove mycotoxins from feed.
Meiyijing—Nine Key Benefits: mold prevention and removal, liver and kidney protection, intestinal regulation, improved feed conversion ratio, enhanced immunity, nutritional supplementation, increased egg production, safe and efficient, and prevention and treatment of proventriculitis and crop inflammation.
Ingredients: Bacillus subtilis, glucose oxidase (Type I), catalase, various vitamins, and others.
Functional features: (1) Mold prevention and removal—effectively degrades a variety of mycotoxins in feed and drinking water pipelines, thereby preventing and mitigating their toxic effects on the organism.
(2) Protects the liver and kidneys, neutralizes and eliminates mycotoxins and drug‑induced toxins from the body, thereby reducing their damaging effects on vital metabolic organs such as the liver and kidneys.
(3) Regulates the intestinal tract, inhibits the proliferation of harmful bacteria such as Escherichia coli, repairs damaged intestinal mucosa, and prevents and controls diarrhea and feed wastage.
(4) Improving the feed-to-gain ratio can enhance nutrient absorption and reduce the feed-to-gain ratio.
(5) Enhance immunity, eliminate harmful free radicals in the body, reverse immune suppression, and boost immune function.
(6) Supplement nutrition to enhance the body’s resistance;
(7) Improve eggshell quality and increase egg production;
(8) Safe and highly effective; suitable for chicks, ducklings, and pregnant livestock.
(9) Prevents avian proventriculitis and crop inflammation caused by molds.
