All these problems led to low labor productivity,low asset utilization rate and poor economic benefit in silkworm eggs producing farms in China. Except the provinces( regions) of Guangxi,Guangdong and Yunnan,the silkworm eggs producing farms in other provinces were generally at deficit condition. In the light of ownership,although silkworm eggs producing farms of different ownership systems were in the red,those of the private sector had the minimum deficit. Based on these findings,it is proposed to deepen system reformation of silkworm eggs producing farms,loosen control to price and circulation of silkworm eggs,implement large-scaled production and operation,speed up scientific and technological innovation,expand diversified development channels,and reinforce government support so as to increase production and operation benefits of silkworm eggs producing farms in China.展开更多

A wetland of 688 mz was constructed on an egg duck farm, and water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) was chosen as an aquatic plant for the wetland and used as food for duck production. The objectives of this study were to test the role of water hyacinth in purifying nutrient-rich wastewater and its effects on the ducks' feed intake, egg laying performance and egg quality. This paper shows that the constructed wetland removed as much as 64.44% of chemical oxygen demand (COD), 21.78% of total nitrogen (TN) and 23.02% of total phosphorus (TP). Both dissolved oxygen (DO) and the transparency of the wastewater were remarkably improved, with its transparency 2.5 times higher than that of the untreated wastewater. After the ducks were fed with water hyacinth, the average daily feed intake and the egg-laying ratio in the test group were 5.86% and 9.79% higher, respectively, than in the control group; the differences were both significant at the 0.01 probability level. The egg weight in the test group was 2.36% higher than in the control group (P 〈 0.05), but the feed conversion ratios were almost the same. The eggshell thickness and strength were among the egg qualities significantly increased in ducks fed with water hyacinth. We concluded that a water hyacinth system was effective for purifying wastewater from an intensive duck farm during the water hyacinth growing season, as harvested water hyacinth had an excellent performance as duck feed. We also discussed the limitations of the experiment.展开更多

文摘【目的】探究残差神经网络(residual neural network,ResNet)对不同种类鸡蛋的分类效果,明确深度学习应用存在智能鸡蛋巡检装置的可行性,为家禽养殖智能化进程提供新思路,并为鸡蛋分类研究提供数据支撑。【方法】在鸡舍实地取样,采用自适应矩估计优化器(adaptive moment estimation,Adam)以微调最后1层、微调所有层和重新训练所有层3种迁移学习策略分别训练,并通过调整模型权重参数及改变学习率的方式训练出最佳分类模型。【结果】得到识别准确率高达98.971%的鸡蛋分类模型。计算出模型在数据集上的各类评估指标,并借助混淆矩阵及语义特征降维可视化,分析出鸡蛋分类识别中易被误判的类别及语义。该模型部署后实时性良好,满足实际需求。【结论】鸡蛋的分类识别中光照条件是关键影响因素,应尽可能使鸡舍光照稳定均衡。针对6类鸡蛋,微调所有层并调整学习率参数为0.6,可得最佳模型。其在鸡舍场景下分类效果优良,尤其是颜色语义,应用于智能鸡蛋巡检装置,可有效降低人力成本。后续研究中应注重畸形蛋及软壳蛋的记录,为进一步优化提供数据支撑。
