When beginning pig farming you should first plan on where you want your pigs to call home. For pig housing you should construct a well aired swine 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 pig pen should be large enough to accommodate your entire swines and really should be comfortable to your pigs as well. To make it comfortable you may install hog wire and concrete slabs. The fence should 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 odours that the pigs produce you can put hay and straws on the floor. 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 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 task. This must be done carefully. Make sure that you buy your swine from a seller who has learned 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. This can be done by providing them with food and clean water everyday. Keep in mind to clean the pen every once in a while to make sure that bacteria doesn’t develop in the pen. A healthy hog will produce quality meat thus giving you more profits.
