When starting out in pig farming you should first plan on where you want your pigs to call home. For pig housing you must construct a well aired pig pen which is spacious as well. You should place your swine pen in a flat area that is free from mud that can attract insects.
Your swine pen must be large enough to accommodate all of your swines and really should be comfortable to your swine as well. To make it comfortable you may install hog wire and concrete slabs. The fence must be buried 6 inches deep in the ground so the pigs don’t dig under it. Concrete slabs will make sure that the floor is proper and easy to clean.
To absorb odours that the swine produce you can put hay plus straws on the floor. You can also design parts in the pen where your pigs can feed, rest and relieve themselves. A nice roofing is needed as well to protect your swine from extreme weather like heat and rainwater.
After you have built a pig pen you then go ahead in getting the right pig breed for your project. This should be done carefully. Make sure that you buy your swine from a seller who knows what are high quality pigs and what are mediocre breeds.
Once your pigs are in their houses all you need to do is take good care of them. You can do this by providing them with food and clean water everyday. Remember to clean the pen every once in a while to ensure that bacteria doesn’t develop in the pen. A proper pig will produce quality meat thus bringing you more revenue.
