What are the feed requirements for piglets and growing pigs? Key feeding points explained
Feed requirements for feeding piglets and growing pigs
Feed for piglets and growing pigs should be appropriately crushed. In particular, grain feeds such as corn and soybean meal need to be appropriately crushed, but crushing them too finely is harmful.
Piglet and growing pig feed should be fed raw. To help meat pigs eat, shorten feeding time, and avoid feed dust in the barn, dry powder feed can be mixed with water at a ratio of 1 to 0.5 or 1 to 1 to make semi-dry powder feed or wet powder feed, fed in troughs or scattered on a hard floor, with drinking water provided separately.
