Matters needing attention in raising pigs in fermentation bed

Fermentation bed is a new type of pig-raising technology, which uses microorganisms for material and energy cycle and conversion, and is an environmentally friendly ecological pig-raising model. When pigs are raised in the fermentation bed, pigs live in organic padding, and the feces of pigs will be quickly decomposed, digested and transformed by microorganisms, and the reasons provided by excreta will make the bacteria grow and reproduce continuously, forming high-protein hyphae for pig feeding. Although its advantages are very good, but there are still many key points to pay attention to when breeding, let's take a look at it.

1. Bedding material selection

The quality of pig bedding in fermentation bed determines the success or failure of pig breeding. choosing a suitable padding can reduce the incidence of pig farm diseases, reduce breeding costs and increase income, so the selection of padding is very important. Generally speaking, all organic materials can be used as cushions, but the actual situation requires good permeability, adsorption, and strong and stable carbon supply, so sawdust, wheat bran and sawdust are generally selected as cushions. At the same time, in order to ensure the intensity of fermentation, some other raw materials are needed, such as rice bran, beer tank, bean cake and so on.

2. Daily maintenance of fermentation bed

When breeding, the fermentation bed must be well maintained to make it clean and permeable. In general, the fecal area should be turned over deeply in 2-3 days to make the excreta decompose and transform quickly, and at the same time avoid the smell affecting the eating and growth of pigs and infecting the disease. The cushion should be added in time every 4-5 months, at the same time, the contaminated cushion should be cleaned up in time, and the serious ones should be discarded, and the failed cushion can be used normally only after the second fermentation. It is necessary to ensure that the humidity of the cushion is 50%, 70%, and the humidity is high, which is easy to cause hardening, poor permeability, low humidity and fast water loss.

3. Water and feed supply

Adequate drinking water equipment should be installed reasonably during breeding. If the installation of drinking water equipment is unreasonable, it will affect the fermentation of bedding materials. At the same time, if the drinking water equipment is not enough, the growth of pigs will be affected, and in serious cases, death will be caused, especially in the summer high temperature period. At the same time, drinking water should pay attention to the water temperature, summer water temperature should not be too high, to be cool, and winter can not be too low, to warm water. The supply of feed should also be adequate, although it can be decomposed and transformed, but the hyphae can not supply the feeding of pigs. If there is not enough feed, pigs will starve and feed on bedding, causing indigestion and gastrointestinal diseases.

4. Pay attention to feeding density and disinfection

When breeding, we should pay attention to the feeding density, if the feeding density is too large, resulting in bedding damage in a short time, leading to the failure of fermentation bed culture, and high feeding density, not easy to dissipate heat, will be alive and hot to death when high temperature in summer. Low feeding density will waste resources, increase breeding costs and reduce income, so reasonable control of feeding, density is very important, generally 1 square meter 1 pig, if it is a smaller young pig and breeding pig, can be 2-3 per square meter. At the same time, it is not suitable to disinfect through drugs when breeding, because the beneficial microorganisms in the fermentation bed will be eliminated together through drug disinfection, resulting in the decrease of decomposition and conversion rate.
