Stress, Modern
Problem of Ma
BY J, W. UNDERWOOD
Livestock Specialist
West. Ont, Agricultural School
Every day we read in the
press, or hear of someone who
has succumbed to the strain of
automation and modern day
pressures, and has had a ner-
vous breakdown, a slight heart
spell, an ulcer attack.
Few farmers, much less ur-
ban folk, realize that this
same problem of stress is af-
fecting our domestic livestock
population,
Due to modern techniques
of livestock husbandry, many
more animal units are raised
on the average farm or in the
feedlot or feeder barn. This
brings about what we call close
confinement rearing, and with
it comes stress from handling
for such jobs as iron injections,
vitamin antibiotic injections,
vaccination, weaning, weighing,
sorting and shipping.
These practices, all good
individually, and necessary to
efficient production, nonethe-
less add up td a drastic change
from the easy life of a sow and
her litter in the barnyard, or
the cow and her calf, grazing
peacefully on the back creek
flats.
Thus, as with humans, so
with the confined animal, stress
begins to show up. Specifically
in swine it shows up in the form
of: 1. Cannibalism (i.e. tail
biting, ear chewing); 2. Gas
tric ulcers; 3. Scouring.
Stress lowers resistance to
disease, and so leaves the ani -

mal easy prey to bacterial
build-up under high volume
production operations,
Thus the need for extremely
good management on the mo-
dern farm. All possible precau-
tions to reduce excess handling
should be followed and, in add-
ition, whenever a stress is anti-
cipated, some precautionary
measure taken. This can in-
clude medication, tranquilizing,
and most of all, giving plenty
of time for the job, and, where -
ever possible, making the sur-
roundings seem familiar, An
example of this is such a small
item as placing straw or famil-
iar bedding on the loading
ramp.
Remember, whether man or
animal, it is far easier and
cheaper to avoid stress than to
recover from its crippling ef-
fects.
