Can hogwash pig eat? What is the difference between pigs fed with hogwash and those fed with feed?

Abstract: what is the difference between hogs, feed pigs and domestic pigs?

This question reminds me of the pigs raised in my hometown when I was a child. In the past, in order to subsidize household use or to eat meat in my own family, I used to raise a few pigs. Most of the pigs eat leftovers from home, plus some wheat bran and cowhide vegetables and so on. The pigs raised at home used to grow slowly, but they still tasted good.

Can hogwash pig eat?

First of all, two issues need to be clarified here. The first is that restaurant food waste, that is, the so-called "hogwash" pig raising, is prohibited by the state. The second is that hogwash raising pigs is different from the previous rural families raising pigs.

First talk about the problem of hogwash raising pigs, hogwash raising pigs in recent years is not a lot, now many farmers who raise pigs with hogwash are also very hidden in the process, has not been as aboveboard as before. Because we all know that swill feeding pigs is very unsanitary, hogwash is only some leftovers in the restaurant, these things contain a lot of fat and are very easy to breed all kinds of bacteria and germs.

For convenience, many hogwash farms feed hogwash directly to pigs without high-temperature disinfection, which can easily lead to pig disease and increase the probability of pig parasites and infectious diseases. And because the fat content in the swill is very large, the fat accumulates after the pig eats, causing the pig fattening time to eat, the meat quality is not good.

And many of these pig farms that raise pigs with hogwash are unqualified in terms of health and epidemic prevention. For this kind of pig farm and the pigs raised by these slops are not edible. Therefore, hogwash is a very unscientific and unhygienic method of raising pigs. The law of our country forbids this kind of feeding method, and in order to crack down on hogwash raising pigs in many areas, it will be eliminated at the source. Once the situation of hogwash raising pigs is found out, not only farmers will be punished, restaurants that sell hogwash will also be dealt with accordingly.

Domestic pig

In addition, let's talk about the pigs raised by rural families in the past, there used to be several pigs in rural families, because the raising of pigs is relatively simple and the fattening time is relatively short. In rural areas, the leftovers are usually fed to pigs, although they are also leftovers, but the food cooked in their own home is much cleaner than that in restaurants. And there is not much leftover food at home, most of the time for pigs for some wheat bran, green vegetable leaves and so on. Most of these domestic pigs are eaten by themselves, and this kind of pork tastes good, but it is rare now.

Feed pig

Finally, there are feed-fed pigs, which should be the main way of raising pigs at present, and feed feeding is generally carried out in large-scale pig farms. These pig feeding methods are more hygienic, feed feeding is also convenient, and some antibiotics are added to the feed accordingly, so that the pigs get out of the pen early and get sick less. However, as the fattening time is relatively short, so the meat taste is not very good.
