Abstract: Under high temperature environment in summer,livestock and poultry are vulnerable to heat stress.After they have suffered heat stress,their production performance is reduced,which seriously affects their breeding efficiency.Based on the development law of livestock and poultry,the nutrition regulation measures aim to reduce the impact of heat stress on the growth process of livestock and poultry via appropriately allocating the nutrient composition and content,and leading the development of livestock and poultry breeding to the health,green,sustainable and high-efficient direction.This article reviews the latest advances in the prevention and control of heat stress from the perspective of regulation of electrolytes,minerals,vitamins and other nutrients,in hoping to provide useful ideas to prevent and control the heat stress in livestock and poultry and to find new measures to minimize the economic losses of animal husbandry production.
