When starting out in pig farming you should first plan on where you want your swines to call home. For pig housing you should construct a well ventilated swine pen which is spacious as well. You should place your swine pen in a flat area that is free from mud that can attract insects.
Your pig pen must be adequate to accommodate all your domestic swine and really should be comfortable to your pigs as well. To make it comfortable you can install hog wire and concrete slabs. The fence should be buried 6 inches deep in the ground so the pigs don’t dig under it. Concrete slabs will ensure that the floor is proper and easy to clean.
To absorb smells that the swine produce you may put hay plus straws on the ground. You can even design sections in the pen where your pigs can feed, sleep and relieve themselves. A good roofing is necessary as well to protect your swine from extreme weather like heat and rain.
After you have built 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 buy 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. Remember to clean the pen every every now and then to make sure that bacteria doesn’t grow in the pen. A proper pig will produce quality meat thus bringing you more revenue.
