Raising chickens in citrus orchards is conducive to the growth of orange trees, chickens will eat pests at the bottom, reduce the insect pests of orange trees, and at the same time, chickens can supplement nutrients to provide the growth of chickens. 2. Raising chickens in orange orchards, the manure discharged by chickens can provide the nutrients needed for citrus growth, which is conducive to the flowering and fruiting of orange trees, reduces the cost of buying fertilizer, and increases economic benefits.

Orchard chicken is grazing-based, house feeding supplemented by the way of feeding, because of its production environment is more extensive, should choose strong adaptability, strong disease resistance, resistant to rough feeding, diligent foraging of local chicken breeds for breeding. Traditional local breeds such as Xiaoshan chicken, Pudong chicken, Xianju chicken, and Shouguang chicken are suitable varieties for orchard breeding.

The orchard chosen requires a certain distance from the village, convenient transportation, high and dry terrain, good ventilation and light. The ground is sandy loam or loam, which has not been polluted by infectious diseases or parasitic pathogens in the past, and has good air permeability and water permeability, so that the soil has good drainage, low thermal conductivity, and microorganisms are not easy to multiply, which meets the requirements of hygiene. The orchard should have sufficient water for broilers to drink, and the water should not contain germs and food, no peculiar odor or peculiar smell, and the water quality should be clear.

In the middle of the orchard where broilers are raised, choose an appropriate sheltered flat place and use earth walls or bricks, wood and shanshan felt to build a simple chicken coop with a slope height of about 2 meters, a span of 5 6 meters and a length of 10 30 meters. The ground is paved with sand or cement, and the density of chicken coops is about 20 per square meter, and 1000 3000 chickens per house are appropriate, and the chicken coop is facing south or northwest facing southeast.

Chicks are just starting to be placed in the orchard, and the trough and drinker should be placed about 1 meter near the house for the first 5 days to familiarize them with the environment, during which they are still fed according to the number of brooding times, and the number of feedings can be gradually reduced later. When the weather is nice, the flock is released from the coop early in the morning and the flock is driven back to the coop in the evening when it gets dark. If it rains, the orchard is sheltered by a large fruit tree, and the chickens are already plump, they can still open the door of the chicken coop and let them come and go freely.

If the fruit tree is still small and there is no way to shelter from the rain, it is not advisable to release the flock. If there is a sudden change in the climate, the chickens should be called back in time.

The flock can be fed an appropriate amount of compound feed before grazing in the morning, and then re-fed once after the flock is recalled in the evening. The amount of supplementary feeding should vary according to the season, such as autumn and winter orchard weeds are small, there are few insects, the amount of supplementary feeding can be appropriately increased, and the amount of supplementary feeding can be appropriately reduced in spring and summer.

It is necessary to establish a set of scientific immunization procedures, and vaccinate the flock regularly, and the vaccination of the flock is generally carried out after the flock returns to the nest in the evening.

When spraying fruit trees to control pests and diseases, the first to drive the chickens to a safe place to avoid them. If it rains heavily, you can avoid it for 2 3 days, and if it is a sunny day, it should be extended for 1 2 days to prevent chickens from being poisoned by eating pesticide-sprayed leaves and grass. After the chickens are slaughtered, the orchard should be cleaned up, and the orchard floor can be disinfected with quicklime or lime milk.

Each batch of chickens in the orchard should be raised at intervals. After raising a batch of orchards, you should be idle for a period of time, and find another orchard to raise, which is the so-called "rotational grazing".
