When beginning pig farming you should first plan on where you want your swines to call home. For pig housing you must construct a well ventilated pig pen which is spacious as well. You must place your pig pen in a flat place that is free from mud that can attract insects.
Your pig pen should be large enough to accommodate all your swines and should be comfortable to your pigs as well. To make it comfortable you may install hog wire and concrete slabs. The surrounding fence must be buried 6 inches deep in the ground so that the pigs don’t dig under it. Concrete slabs will ensure that the floor is proper and easy to clean.
To absorb smells that the swine produce you may put hay and straws on the floor. You can also design parts in the house where your swine can feed, sleep and relieve themselves. A good roofing is necessary as well to protect your swine from extreme weather like heat and rain.
After you have designed a pig pen you then go ahead in choosing the right pig breed for your task. This needs to be done carefully. Make sure that you purchase your swine from a seller who has found out 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 plus clean water everyday. Remember to clean the pen every once in a while to ensure that bacteria doesn’t grow in the pen. A healthy pig will produce quality meat thus giving you more revenue.
