Key points of breeding

1, carrying out protective feeding.

In summer and autumn, planting gourd, big melon, sleeping melon, sunflower and other plants outside the pig house can shade and cool down. In winter, plastic greenhouse feeding technology should be popularized, and insect repellent and immunization work should be done regularly.

2. Promote high-density breeding pigs.

0.8m2 pigpen in winter 1 fattening pig, summer 1 pigpen 1 fattening pig. High-density breeding pigs not only have few laps and low cost, but also fatten pigs compete for food. Sleep without a sports ground, love to gain weight quickly and reduce feeding expenses.

3. Feed should be cheap

Feed accounts for 70 ~ 75% of the cost of raising pigs. Feed formula should change with the change of market price and season, and cannot be fixed. If pigs eat less in hot summer, the feed should be more nutritious. Feed nutrition should be balanced to meet the growth needs.
