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 ventilated pig pen which is spacious as well. You must place your pig pen in a flat area that is free from mud that may being insects.
Your swine pen should be adequate to accommodate all your pigs and really should be comfortable to your swine as well. To make it comfortable you can install hog wire and concrete slabs. The fence should be buried six 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 odors 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, rest and relieve themselves. A nice roofing is needed as well to protect your swine from extreme weather like heat and rain.
After you have designed a pig pen you then go ahead in choosing the right swine breed for your project. This has to 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 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 everyday. 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 revenue.
