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 pig pen which is spacious as well. You should place your swine pen in a flat area that is free from mud that may being insects.
Your swine pen should be large enough to accommodate all your swines and should be comfortable to your swine as well. To make it comfortable you can install hog wire plus 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 odours that the swine produce you can put hay and straws on the floor. You can also design areas in the pen where your swine 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 pig 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 have 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 develop in the pen. A healthy pig will produce quality meat thus bringing you more income.
