Chinese
Traditional Veterinary Drug Market Has Broad Prospect
Along with the improvement of people¡¯s living standard, and strengthening
of people¡¯s health consciousness, the safety problem of animal products
has aroused increasing attention by the broad masses of consumers.
Food safety, drug residue, bacterial tolerance and other problems
have attracted attention by relevant departments. The production of
pollution-free animal products has become an inevitable trend for
animal production development. The developed countries have increasingly
strict registration and management rules over veterinary drugs. EU
has declared that antibiotics will not be used as production promoting
feed additives in 2006 and prohibited the use of many veterinary drugs.
Enzymatic agents, probiotics, Chinese herbal drug and several kinds
of green additives have become the focus of veterinary drug manufacture
enterprises. Particularly green, pure natural, residue-free, nontoxic
side effect Chinese herbal drug products have welcomed by numerous
veterinary drug products, which have broad market prospect.
Developing Chinese herbal drug is the demand of green animal product
production. Chinese herbal drug can solve the residue problem of antibiotics
and harmful chemical synthesized drug in animal food, reduce and avoid
the production and spread of drug resistant bacteria, and improve
the immune capacity of animal body. Chinese herbal drug has complicated
ingredients, can significantly improve animal¡¯s quality after application
of Chinese herbal drugs, increase the immune system and antibody level
of animal body, reduce drug volume and reduce production cost of animal
products. The increasingly strict government regulations and optimal
demand of consumers have made a higher cost of new veterinary drug
development and higher risks. However, Chinese herbal drug is produced
from nature; it has not only the effect in treatment, but also most
organisms in Chinese herbal drug can be used as a nutrient to utilize.
It can not only make full use of natural resources, but also improve
ecological environment.
