Several misunderstandings of raising pigs in rural areas

There are not a small number of pig farmers in rural areas, especially in recent years, there are countless new small and medium-sized pig farms in rural areas. In fact, most of the people in these small pig farms have not been trained in pig raising skills, so they often make mistakes when raising pigs, and they also think that these mistakes are years of accumulated experience. Today, the editor has sorted out several common misunderstandings about raising pigs in rural areas. Let's take a look.

1. Improper selection of feed

I believe that when buying pig feed, many people generally do not waste too much time on it. In many cases, when feed sellers sell which kind of feed is how good, after a little struggle, and then through price comparison, they finally choose the cheaper feed, without taking into account the palatability and quality of the feed and other factors. Especially now a lot of feed is delivered directly to the door, so the quality of the feed will not be tested at all, and in the end, pigs will eat bad or inferior feed and affect their normal growth.

2. Improper feed allocation.

Improper feed allocation is mainly manifested in these aspects. First of all, many people do not pay attention to the problem of nutritional balance when matching feed, but simply consider whether the pig can have enough to eat. Secondly, when matching feed, many people will think that concentrate needs to account for most of the proportion, without taking into account the nutrients needed in the growing period of pigs. Finally, there are many people in the feed configuration, do not take into account breeding pigs, boars, young pigs, suckling pigs and suckling pigs in different growth periods and other factors, basically in accordance with the same proportion. These problems will lead to poor nutrition and stunting in pig growth.

3. Improper feeding and management

There are more mistakes made in this aspect of improper feeding and management. The editor will briefly say a few points here. First of all, most people think that the longer the feeding time, the bigger the growth, in fact, it is not. When the weight of the pig reaches the kilogram, it will not grow much, so it needs to be sold in time. The second is to add a lot of water when feeding, so that pigs can have enough to eat, or set up a special sink in the pigsty and keep adding water. Finally, many people are still using cooked feed to feed pigs, which weakens the nutrients of the feed and may produce nitrite, resulting in pig poisoning and death.

4. Daily management is not standard.

Improper daily management is mainly manifested in pigsty cleaning and disinfection. At present, many pig farms still use traditional bedding to raise pigs, but they do not clean up the bedding in time. Sometimes even once every three or four months, this will produce a lot of bacteria, causing pigs to be infected with bacteria, resulting in classical swine fever and swine disease. The second is that many pig farms basically do not disinfect pig farms and feel that as long as they are cleaned up, or rinse with water.

5. the prevention and control of epidemic disease is not standard.

Improper prevention and control of epidemic disease is a misunderstanding that most people will make. Especially now is a season of frequent occurrence of pig disease, many people worry that their pigs are also infected with the disease, so they will add oxytetracycline and other antibiotics to the feed for a long time, thinking that Qiang can enhance the immunity of pigs. However, they all ignore the toxicity of drugs. Excessive administration of these drugs will seriously affect the growth of pigs, and even lead to pig death and other diseases. There are many people in the pig diarrhea, soft legs, crazy, do not eat and so on, without a diagnosis on the random use of medicine, resulting in irreparable losses.

The above are some common phenomena in the market when raising pigs in rural areas. These are the misunderstandings of raising pigs. I believe that many farmers have made such mistakes. I hope the editor's article can help more people so that they don't make the same mistake in the process of breeding.
