This means the quality of the feed must be good. There are many feed varieties to choose from now, including premix, concentrate, and complete feed; from big manufacturers and small manufacturers. I suggest that if conditions allow, choose complete feed from a big manufacturer, because the quality is guaranteed and stable, and after-sales service is also very good. If your own raw materials are sufficient and of good quality (no mold), you can also choose premix or concentrate, but then you will need to add a feed grinder and mixer.
In addition, to eat well, you must also ensure there are enough feeding spaces for the pigs to eat. Nowadays there are generally two methods: meal feeding and free-choice feeding. Meal feeding requires a bit more labor, but it allows effective observation of the pigs' condition, and pigs with problems can be found and handled in time. Free-choice feeding requires less labor, but you need to invest in free-choice feeders.

2. Drink wellFirst, make sure ofthe quality of drinking water. If conditions allow, pig farms should have a qualified testing institution test the farm's water quality, and it can only be used if it meets pig drinking standards.
In addition, make sure ofwater temperature. Pigs do not like to drink water that is too hot or too cold, so for installed water pipes, sun protection should be done in summer and freeze protection should be done in winter.
Thedrinking methodin the pig house is also very important. Nowadays automatic drinkers are generally used. Pay attention to the number, height, and position of the drinkers to ensure pigs can conveniently drink water when they want to.
3. Rest well
Resting well requires a comfortable resting area. The first condition is to ensurethe stocking density is not too high, and to ensure pigs have areas for eating and drinking, excretion, and resting.
Another thing is to have suitabletemperature, humidity, and air qualityconditions, that is, do a good job of summer heat prevention, winter insulation, and appropriate ventilation.
If pigs eat well, drink well, and rest well, their mood will naturally be good, and with a relaxed mind and a plump body, it would be hard for them not to grow fast! Of course, while doing this work well, you also need to do some basic vaccinations and biosecurity work, so that our pig farming business can go more smoothly!
