When beginning pig farming you should first plan on where you want your swines to call home. For pig housing you should construct a well aired swine pen which is spacious as well. You should place your swine pen in a flat place that is free from mud that may being insects.
Your pig pen should be large enough to accommodate all of your pigs and 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 six 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 odors that the swine produce you may put hay and straws on the floor. You can also design sections in the house where your pigs can feed, rest and relieve themselves. A good roofing is required as well to protect your pigs from extreme weather like heat and rainwater.
After you have designed a pig pen you then go ahead in getting the right swine breed for your project. This has to be done carefully. Make sure that you purchase your pigs from a seller who has found out what are high quality pigs and what are mediocre breeds.
Once your swine 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 on daily bases. Also remember to clean the pen every occasionally to ensure that bacteria doesn’t grow in the pen. A proper pig will produce quality meat thus bringing you more revenue.
