New trick for greenhouse pig farming in Qionglai: warm in winter, cool in summer
Black pig
Feeding black pigs
As living standards continue to rise, people also have more high-quality demands for dining ingredients. Green, high-quality pork is not only fatty but not greasy, with fine fibers that melt in the mouth. But such pork cannot be obtained merely by raising pigs in foul-smelling pigsties and feeding them artificial feed.
Air conditioning for heating in winter, water curtains for cooling in summer
The ecological black pig farm in Linji Town, located in Qionglai City, took advantage of the town's good ecological environment and other features to build an ecological breeding farm. The farm is clean and tidy with no foul odors. Air conditioning is used for heating in winter, while water curtains are used for cooling in summer, keeping the pig pens at a constant temperature of 26°C year-round.
Automated breeding facilities have become the magic weapon for ecological pork. For the pig farming industry, the biggest challenge is the handling of manure. The farm workers use floor drains, and the manure is automatically absorbed and collected through slatted floors, then used as organic fertilizer for pig grass and other green feed, forming a low-cost, green and environmentally friendly treatment model. There is no manure or sewage in the pig pens and no foul odors, achieving zero pollution emissions and resolving the contradiction between farming pollution and environmental protection.
Living in villas, eating fine meals
The pigs' food is green feed made from 75% green fodder and 25% mixed grains, to ensure the vitamin content of the pork. Combined with auxiliary facilities such as automatic drinkers, it can be said that the pigs on this farm live in villas and eat fine meals. It is reported that the market price of ecological black pigs is about 60 yuan/jin.
Standardized large-scale farming developed under the concept of ecological circulation is the trend of the future. From exploring the treatment of farming pollution, to the unified preparation of green feed, to the new model of automated feeding, this farm has achieved diversification and attained good economic and social benefits.
