Matters needing attention in the management of fattening pigs

Pork has become the most basic meat food in our daily life, and pork is needed almost every day. Therefore, with the increase of pork market, the scale of pig industry has gradually become one of the largest breeding projects in our country. Raising pigs is for the meat of the body, so it is very important in the fattening period of pigs, which is the key to fattening pigs. So what should be paid attention to when managing fattening pigs? Let's take a look at it.

1. Feeding management

The management of fattening pigs is very critical, because during this period, pigs have the strongest growth ability, and the demand for feed will increase greatly. Therefore, we should provide enough feed to ensure the nutrition needed for fattening pigs, while feeding feed, we should also ensure adequate drinking water, drinking water should be clean and pollution-free, to prevent heavy metals in drinking water. If there are heavy metals in drinking water, it will hinder the nutrition absorption of fattening pigs, appear malnutrition, make it unable to gain weight normally and so on. In serious cases, it may also lead to visceral poisoning and death in fattening pigs, so we must strictly control the cleanliness of feed and drinking water to avoid anomalies.

2. Control environment

The change of environment will have different responses to fattening pigs, and fattening pigs are very sensitive to the change of environment. We should ensure that the pig house can be ventilated normally to prevent the pig house from producing too many harmful gases and reduce the probability of respiratory diseases caused by harmful gases in fattening pigs. At the same time, it can also reduce the incidence of infectious diseases with air as the transmission medium. Good control of the light in the pigsty, too dark environment is the best condition for bacterial growth, but too strong light will affect the rest of fattening pigs. Therefore, in the environmental management, we should not only do a good job in sanitation, but also control the lighting, ventilation and ventilation of the pig house.

3. Temperature management

The growth temperature of fattening pigs should not be too high or too low. The most suitable growth temperature of finishing pigs is about 20 degrees. Keeping the temperature in the range of 18-22 degrees can accelerate the fat gain rate of pigs and improve the feed conversion rate. If the temperature is too low, fattening pigs will consume more nutrients to maintain their body temperature, which is very disadvantageous to the fattening and growth of fattening pigs. As a result, the disease resistance of fattening pigs will decline, increasing the incidence of respiratory diseases and gastrointestinal diseases, so when the temperature is too low, we must do a good job of heat preservation, appropriate warming treatment for the pig house.

4. Daily records

Many pig farmers regularly observe the growth of fattening pigs in pig houses when raising pigs, but they all forget the most important point. That is, when observing, we must record the weight gain, food intake, activity and health of fattening pigs. Do a good job of these records, so that they can intuitively understand the situation of the pigsty at the first time, which is conducive to a deeper understanding of fattening pigs. It is very beneficial to the later management and the nutrition ratio of feed.

The above is a brief introduction to the matters needing attention in the management of fattening pigs, many friends will only focus on the management of pregnant pigs and piglets, thus ignoring the management of fattening pigs. Lead to some fattening pigs have a variety of problems, fattening failure, can not meet the requirements of listing, affecting their own breeding efficiency. That's all for today's introduction.
