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 ventilated pig pen which is spacious as well. You must 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 plus 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 make sure that the floor is proper and easy to clean.
To absorb odors that the pigs produce you can put hay and straws on the ground. You can even design parts in the house where your pigs can feed, sleep and relieve themselves. A nice roofing is needed as well to protect your swine from extreme weather like heat and rainwater.
After you have designed a pig pen you then go ahead in choosing the right pig breed for your task. This should be done carefully. Make sure that you purchase your pigs from a seller who has learned 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 on daily bases. Also remember to clean the pen every every now and then to ensure that bacteria doesn’t develop in the pen. A proper pig will produce quality meat thus bringing you more revenue.
