When starting out in 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 pig pen which is spacious as well. You should place your swine pen in a flat area that is free from mud that may attract insects.
Your pig pen must be large enough to accommodate your pigs and really should be comfortable to your pigs as well. To make it comfortable you can install hog wire and concrete slabs. The fence should be buried 6 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 smells that the swine produce you may put hay plus straws on the floor. You can also design areas in the house where your swine can feed, rest and relieve themselves. A nice roofing is necessary 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 getting the right swine breed for your project. This needs to be done carefully. Make sure that you purchase your swine from a seller who knows 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 plus clean water everyday. Keep in mind to clean the pen every once in a while to ensure that bacteria doesn’t grow in the pen. A healthy hog will produce quality meat thus bringing you more profits.
