Feeding methods of rural sows

Rural sows should be fed with feed rich in protein and vitamins before pregnancy. Sows should be fed with sufficient and comprehensive nutrients around 20 days of pregnancy, and must not be fed with moldy, frozen, toxic and irritating feed. Sows should be fed more concentrated feed in 2-3 months of pregnancy, and the prenatal feed should be reduced 10-20%.

How to feed rural sows

1, feeding before pregnancy

Raising sows in rural areas requires sows to have sufficient nutrition to ensure their normal growth and development. In the early pregnancy, sows need to be fed more protein and vitamin-rich feed, and at the same time, some green feed should be properly matched to make sows more robust.

2, about 20 days pregnant feeding

Rural sows are particularly prone to miscarriage after about 20 days of pregnancy. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen feeding management at this time. Be careful not to feed sows moldy, frozen, toxic and irritating feed, and the nutrition of the feed should be full and comprehensive. Otherwise, improper feeding will easily lead to sow abortion.

3. Single-lap feeding

It is best to feed rural sows in a single circle after two months of pregnancy. Let them exercise and bask in the sun every day. Feed needs to ensure adequate nutrition. When a sow is pregnant for about three months, it will enter the second pregnancy. At this time, green feed can be reduced appropriately, and concentrated feed needs to be increased. It is best to feed 2.5 kilograms every day.

4, delivery maintenance

When rural sows are about to give birth, the concentrate should be appropriately reduced to avoid mastitis and dry stool, which is not conducive to sow production. It is also the best to reduce the prenatal feeding of sows 10-20%. Pay attention to increasing protein and minerals in feed.
