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 aired swine 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 pig pen must be adequate to accommodate all your pigs and should be comfortable to your pigs as well. To make it comfortable you may install hog wire plus concrete slabs. The 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 odors that the swine produce you can put hay plus straws on the ground. You can even design parts in the pen where your pigs can feed, rest and relieve themselves. A nice roofing is required as well to protect your swine from extreme weather like heat and rainfall.
After you have built a pig pen you then go ahead in getting the right swine breed for your task. This needs 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 swine 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 everyday. Remember to clean the pen every occasionally to ensure that bacteria doesn’t grow in the pen. A proper pig will produce quality meat thus giving you more profits.
