Methods for farmers to cope with a "cold snap"
When hog market prices fluctuate greatly, farmers should be fully prepared to prevent the impact of a "cold snap."
Strengthen breed improvement. Farmers can, according to market demand, raise more improved breeds of pigs, such as lean-type improved breeds. Improved breeds of pigs have the advantages of fast growth and a high lean meat rate, and their market price is relatively high.
Reduce feed costs. When choosing feed, pay attention to whether quality matches price and whether quality is stable. When mixing feed themselves, farmers should pay attention to the feed formula and processing techniques to ensure product quality and safety.
Focus on feeding management. Implement different management methods according to the different growth stages of pigs, and properly handle issues such as temperature, humidity, drinking water, and ventilation in the pig house.
Strengthen epidemic disease prevention and control. The principle of disease prevention and treatment is: prevention first, combining prevention and treatment. Implement strict and scientific immunization procedures and strict sanitation and disinfection systems, strengthen epidemic prevention and epidemic monitoring, and improve the quality and level of epidemic prevention. Quarantine should also be strengthened to reduce the spread of epidemic diseases.|||Restock less, avoid illness, and just wait for pig prices to rebound|||Strengthen epidemic disease prevention and control.
