There are three levels of fungal infections:
- Acute primary infection occurs as a result of the consumption of high to moderate amounts of fungal toxins and the emergence of a condition such as hepatitis, kidney and bleeding and membranes of the mouth and intestines and can lead to death. Normal pollution levels are usually not high for this condition.
- chronic primary infection: The result of the consumption of a longer period of small to medium amounts of fungal toxins and does not produce distinctive symptoms and thus difficult to diagnose, and it reduces the productivity of animals and birds in the form of slow growth rates and reduce reproductive efficiency.
- Secondary infection: It arises from the consumption of low levels of fungal toxins and lead to a defect in natural immunity and acquired against infectious diseases and it leads to a reduction in the efficiency of immunizations and economic losses.
Care should be taken of the stores of feed components where they should be clean free of insects and mice, where temperature and humidity can be controlled. The grains can also be treated with some antifungal treatments such as organic acids such as propionic acid, sorbic, formic, acetic and bioteric.
Organic acid salts are better than organic acids alone as they are more effective for a longer period.
It should be noted that the fungal toxins that were formed in the field and before the harvest will continue to exist and will not be affected either in the storage method and the addition of fungicides.
