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 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 attract insects.
Your pig pen should be adequate to accommodate all of 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 should be buried six inches deep in the ground so 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 swine produce you may put hay plus straws on the ground. You can also design parts in the house where your pigs can feed, rest and relieve themselves. A nice roofing is necessary as well to protect your pigs from extreme weather like heat and rainwater.
After you have built a pig pen you then go ahead in choosing the right swine breed for your project. This needs to 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 have 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 occasionally to make sure that bacteria doesn’t grow in the pen. A proper hog will produce quality meat thus bringing you more revenue.
