With the development of the scale of animal husbandry industrialization, the continuous improvement of marketization degree and the constant change of the relationship between market supply and demand, the problems faced by the development of animal husbandry are much more complicated than before, and the development task is more arduous. The current problems of livestock machinery in China are mainly reflected in the following aspects:

It is an urgent task for China to prevent grassland degradation, restore grassland vegetation, improve grassland production level, improve ecological environment, and implement the strategy of sustainable development of grassland animal husbandry. Since the state and local governments attach great importance to the development of animal husbandry in pastoral areas and advocate the development of herbivorous animal husbandry and grain saving animal husbandry, the construction of grassland has developed rapidly and the conversion of farmland to grassland has been implemented, and the demand for grassland construction machinery and herbage harvesting machinery has increased. However, at present, China's grassland construction machinery and herbage harvesting machinery have a low technical content, and the equipment for processing grass seeds is backward. Generally, the grass seeds can only reach the level 3 stipulated by the national standard, and the circulation outside the system is often lower than the level 3. In the air separation and screening accuracy, in addition to awning performance, straw specific gravity separation, coating, pelletization technology is far behind the foreign requirements. Subsurface cryptomatic grassland improvement equipment is the necessary equipment for grassland construction and improvement, and it is also the development and promotion equipment urgently needed for grassland maintenance and improvement. In recent years, the equipment has been developed successively in China. The reliability of herbage harvesting and processing machinery is poor, and the cost has not been reduced to the lowest point, which cannot meet the needs of users. Especially after returning farmland to grassland, high-quality forage grass and alfalfa grass are planted in large quantities. The domestic production quality of urgently needed cutting and conditioning equipment, rapid drying and dehydration equipment, picking and pressing square baling and round baling equipment is still not up to standard. For example, the key technology of picking and tying machine is backward, which restricts the use of grass machinery.

China's animal husbandry machinery development from scratch, from a single variety to suitable for a variety of product processing equipment, feed processing, forage grass processing, herbage planting, grassland improvement, breeding equipment, testing equipment has formed a complete range of complete sets of equipment. The rapid development of animal husbandry machinery provides a powerful mechanical guarantee for the development of animal husbandry in China. Animal husbandry machinery in the future development direction mainly consider the following aspects:

The animal husbandry machinery

Under the guidance of the party's policies, small-scale farming, family farming and small ecological industries are flourishing in rural areas. The development of small livestock and poultry farm and ecological agriculture needs to be equipped with complete relevant equipment. The transition from traditional animal husbandry to modern animal husbandry requires more and more extensive automation and mechanization of animal husbandry equipment. Finally, animal husbandry will develop towards high yield, high quality and high efficiency. Because this is convenient family changes, of miniature operation, the function is more comprehensive and the small animal husbandry equipment with relatively cheap price is broad farmer friend urgent need.

With the development of human society and the improvement of living standards, people have higher and higher requirements on food hygiene. As a result, "organic animal husbandry" has been flourishing all over the world. Meat produced through "organic farming" has grown by an average of 20% a year in recent years, and consumption of organic byproducts has increased. Worldwide sales of organic livestock products exceeded $1760 in 1999. In the European market, organic milk costs 37% more than regular milk. The development of organic livestock industry and its products is an important part of the world's agricultural development, research and development of "organic livestock machinery", suitable for fermentation feed production requirements, put an end to feed the drug residues in the phenomenon of excess, reduce the cross contamination, production efficiency and safety of feed products, is a direction in the development of animal husbandry and machinery.
