When beginning pig farming you should first plan on where you want your domestic swine to call home. For pig housing you must construct a well ventilated 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 large enough to accommodate all of your domestic swine and should be comfortable to your swine as well. To make it comfortable you can install hog wire and concrete slabs. The fence must be buried six 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 odors that the swine produce you can put hay and straws on the floor. You can also design sections in the pen where your pigs can feed, sleep and relieve themselves. A nice roofing is required as well to protect your swine from extreme weather like heat and rainwater.
After you have designed a pig pen you then go ahead in getting the right swine 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 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. Keep in mind to clean the pen every occasionally to make sure that bacteria doesn’t develop in the pen. A healthy pig will produce quality meat thus bringing you more profits.
