How to save money when raising pigs? These five key points you need to know

The environment of a pig farm affects not only the normal growth and development of the pigs, but fermentation bed pig raising is a good helper for “automatic cleaning,” and it is also closely related to the control of animal diseases. Regarding how to do a good job in pig raising management, JINBAOBEI technicians remind that the following five points should be focused on:

1. Purify the pig herd

Actively adopt new techniques, such as: early weaning isolation, the 14-day clean-out method, all-in all-out, segregated isolation rearing, and so on. Take this opportunity to implement them, create a better rearing environment, and thereby achieve the greatest breeding benefits with the least input.

2. Cull diseased pigs

Deal with pigs in poor health as soon as possible.

3. Improve equipment

Improper pig house design, such as poor waste discharge design, poor ventilation, or pig houses that cannot be isolated or operated on an all-in all-out basis, should be repaired at the appropriate time without requiring large capital expenditure, so that they become good pig farms that are easy to manage, easy to disinfect, and easy to control pathogens in.

4. Reduce density

Reducing stocking density can not only cut expenses, but also improve rearing performance, and costs will naturally decrease.

5. Avoid contamination

Pig farms should refuse entry to outsiders, pay attention to the disinfection of personnel and vehicles, and standardize pig farm management.
