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 ventilated swine pen which is spacious as well. You should place your pig pen in a flat area that is free from mud that can attract insects.
Your swine pen must be adequate to accommodate your swines and really should be comfortable to your swine as well. To make it comfortable you may install hog wire and concrete slabs. The surrounding fence must be buried 6 inches deep in the ground so that 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 may put hay and straws on the ground. You can also design areas in the pen where your swine can feed, rest and relieve themselves. A nice roofing is required as well to protect your swine 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 task. This must be done carefully. Make sure that you purchase your pigs from a seller who has learned what are high quality pigs and what are mediocre breeds.
Once your swine are in their houses all you have to do is take good care of them. You can do this by providing them with food plus clean water on daily bases. Remember to clean the pen every every now and then to ensure that bacteria doesn’t develop in the pen. A proper hog will produce quality meat thus giving you more income.
