When starting out in pig farming you should first plan on where you want your swines to call home. For pig housing you should 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 being insects.
Your pig pen should be large enough to accommodate your swines 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 that the pigs don’t dig under it. Concrete slabs will ensure that the floor is proper and easy to clean.
To absorb smells that the pigs produce you may put hay plus straws on the floor. You can even design areas in the house where your swine can feed, rest and relieve themselves. A good roofing is required as well to protect your swine from extreme weather like heat and rainfall.
After you have designed a pig pen you then go ahead in choosing the right swine breed for your project. This has to be done carefully. Make sure that you purchase 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. This can be done by providing them with food and clean water on daily bases. Also remember to clean the pen every every now and then to ensure that bacteria doesn’t grow in the pen. A proper hog will produce quality meat thus giving you more revenue.
