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 swine pen which is spacious as well. You should place your pig pen in a flat area that is free from mud that may attract insects.
Your swine pen must be large enough to accommodate your entire 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 that 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 ground. You can even design sections in the pen where your swine can feed, sleep and relieve themselves. A good roofing is needed as well to protect your pigs from extreme weather like heat and rainfall.
After you have built a pig pen you then go ahead in choosing the right swine breed for your project. This must be done carefully. Make sure that you purchase your swine 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. This can be done by providing them with food plus clean water on daily bases. Keep in mind to clean the pen every occasionally to ensure that bacteria doesn’t develop in the pen. A proper hog will produce quality meat thus giving you more profits.
