Small forms of economic activity have been actively developing in the Russian Federation in recent years. Novice farmers choose animals to achieve payback and profit. One of these breeds in the pig industry is the Vietnamese potbellied pigs. This breed appeared and began to spread in Russia not long ago. The article describes the morphological and biochemical studies of peripheral blood. There are described macro-and microstructural changes in the liver of piglets of the Vietnamese pot-bellied breed with a concentrated type of feeding. Moreover, there were determined the biochemical parameters that reflect liver functional deficiency, confirmed by histological studies. Analysis of the obtained data showed that during the first 5 months there was the highest average daily increase, and then there was observed a decrease in the dynamics of weight gain. According to the average daily weight gain, it can be concluded that, after 5-6 months the experimental piglets begin to develop not muscle, but fatty tissue, which is confirmed by literary data.

Abstract. The prevalence of coccidiosis diseases of various animal species has a global scale, so this problem has attracted the attention of veterinary specialists around the world. The purpose of this study was to study the specific features of the species composition and laboratory diagnostics of eimeriosis in young ruminants and to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment and prevention when using drugs from different groups. The material for the study was goats and calves. The research was carried out on the basis of two farms of the same agricultural holding in the Sverdlovsk region. Diagnostics was performed based on clinical and laboratory studies. Results of the study. The main pathogens in the goat breeding complex in goats of different ages were identified: the main causative agent of coccidiosis in 120-day-old goats was Eimeria arloingi, which accounted for 54 % of all detected oocysts in the samples. Eimeriosis occurred as a mixed invasion of Eimeria arloingi with Eimeria ninaekohlyakimovae (33 %) and Eimeria intracata (13 %). Eimeria arloingi (68 %), in 21-days-old goats – Eimeria ninaekohlyakimovae (32 %). Eimeriosis caused by Eimeria bovis was detected in 30-days-old calves (100 %). The article describes the results of using various anticoccidial drugs in the treatment and prevention of eimeriosis. A comparative evaluation of the therapeutic effectiveness of known coccidiostatics is given. The economic efficiency of different groups of drugs was evaluated. The scientific novelty lies in the fact that the morphological and quantitative assessment of parasitocenoses in eimeriosis in young ruminants was carried out. A comparative evaluation of the effectiveness of various traditional remedies and a new drug for the treatment of eimeriosis in calves and goats was carried out. Conclusion. Not all of the drugs used have the same therapeutic effectiveness both in terms of treatment time and the quality of elimination of the etiological factor.

Bovine respiratory infections occupy the second place in the nosological picture after diseases of the digestive system and cause huge economic damage, which in the Russian Federation, according to our estimates, amounts to several billion rubles a year. Very often, respiratory pathologies in highly productive cows are complicated by wound infections of the distal extremities, which primarily include necrobacteriosis, streptococcosis and staphylococcosis, which also bring economic losses to farms due to reduced animal productivity and culling of highly productive cows.The primary causecontributing to the development of wound infections of the distal extremities in cattle is respiratory infections. According to our long-term observations, all farms where outbreaks of necrobacteriosis were recorded were unfavorable for bovine respiratory infections, such as infectious rhinotracheitis (IRT), viral diarrhea(VD), parainfluenza type 3 (PG-3) and respiratory syncytial infection (RSI). Comprehensive prevention of wound infectionsof the dental extremities of cattle (cattle) should include mandatory prevention of respiratory infections. For complex prevention of mixed infection, we proposed the use of an ECHO (electrochemically activated) solution of neutral anolyte (ANK+) in the form of a fine aerosol in combination with the use of a plant-tissue preparation “Vidoral”, (Patent RU 2,625,022 C2 dated 11.07.2017, copyright holder of the Federal State Budgetary Institution of Higher Education of the UralState Agrarian University ) with immunomodulatory properties.

Описано влияние кормовой минеральной добавки (КМД) на показатели гематологического, минерального и биохимического профиля у коров. Обеспечение организма коров всеми необходимыми макро-и микроэлементами в период беременности восстанавливает и регулирует обменные процессы в организме матери и плода. Кормовая минеральная добавка является энтеросорбентом и выводит из организма токсические вещества кормов и токсичные продукты обмена веществ. Описано влияние добавки на родовой процесс и развитие послеродовой патологии. Родовой процесс протекал физиологично, у коров, получавших кормовую минеральную добавку, не было задержаний последа. Количество послеродовых эндометритов снизилось на 20 %. Снизилось число случаев гипофункции яичников в два раза, уменьшилось и количество другой патологии до 2,5 %. Лечение коров с эндометритами проходило быстрее, практически все коровы после лечения пришли в охоту в течение 61,25 дня после отела. Использование полиминеральной кормовой добавки повышает естественную резистентность коров, нормализует обмен макро-и микроэлементов, что важно в период активного роста плода, профилактики развития ранней постнатальной патологии, естественной резистентности плода и активного костеобразования. Использование КМД БШ-ВИТ при восстановленном уровне обмена веществ положительно сказывается на повышении резистентности организма коров и уровне молочной продуктивности. В процессе родовой деятельности участвуют и мать, и плод, поэтому, восстанавливая здоровье матерей, мы получаем здоровое потомство, имеющее более высокую резистентность. Получены положительные результаты по оценке состояния здоровья новорожденных телят. Телята от коров опытной группы не имели признаков ранней постнатальной патологии, средний прирост живой массы был выше, чем у телят от коров контрольной группы.
