1. Feeding after saccharification

After saccharification, corn flour can convert part of the starch into sugar, which can make pigs like to eat and grow quickly. The way to do this is to put the cornmeal into a human jar, then pour it into 2 times the fast-boiling hot water and fully stir it into a paste, then sprinkle 5 cm thick dry powder on its surface, and it will be saccharified after 3-4 hours.

Second, soak and feed

After soaking, corn can absorb water and expand and soften, and pigs are easy to chew, digest and absorb. Soaking method: soak the corn flour with 1-1.5 times of water for about 2 hours.

III. Protein supplementation

Corn has low protein content and poor quality, which can not fully meet the growth needs of pigs. Therefore, protein feed must be supplemented. 15% bean cake or rapeseed cake can be added to the diet. 5% fish meal should be added to piglets.

IV. Supply of minerals

The mineral content of corn is low, so bone meal, calcium hydrogen phosphate, selenium, iron, copper, zinc, manganese and so on should be added to the diet.

Supply of vitamins

The content of vitamins in corn is low, so green feed must be added when feeding. If there is a lack of green feed, multi-vitamins can be added to livestock and poultry.
