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 pig pen which is spacious as well. You should place your pig pen in a flat area that is free from mud that may attract insects.
Your swine pen must be adequate to accommodate all your pigs and really should be comfortable to your swine as well. To make it comfortable you may 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 smells that the pigs produce you may put hay and straws on the floor. You may also design areas in the house where your swine can feed, sleep and relieve themselves. A good roofing is required as well to protect your pigs from extreme weather like heat and rainfall.
After you have built a pig pen you then go ahead in choosing the right swine breed for your task. This must be done carefully. Make sure that you buy your swine 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. This can be done by providing them with food and clean water on daily bases. Also remember to clean the pen every once in a while to make sure that bacteria doesn’t grow in the pen. A healthy pig will produce quality meat thus bringing you more profits.
