How to keep warm in Pig Farm

With the arrival of cold winter, the temperature control of pig farms has become a problem for many farmers to worry about, and the appropriate growth temperature can also allow pigs to grow rapidly in winter. The insulation methods of pig farms in China are not diversified. Let's learn about several insulation methods together with Xiaobian.

1. Place bedding

As one of the traditional ways of keeping warm in our country, adding bedding in pigsty is undoubtedly proved by history, and many free-range households in our country are using this method. More suitable for bedding things more, such as hay, rice straw, sawdust and the like can be. It avoids direct contact between pigs and the ground, separates cold sources, and the bedding absorbs moisture, keeping the pigsty in a relatively dry environment, so that the environment in which pigs are located will not be very wet and cold, so as to ensure the temperature of the pig farm.

2. Increase breeding density

This is a more practical way for some large pig farms, belonging to zero cost, and the effect is also ideal, but it is generally recommended to use pig farms that do manure separation or use fermentation beds, so that it is easy to clean up manure. After the density increases, the range of pig activities becomes smaller, the contact becomes more, and they can also gather together for heating, which can ensure the temperature of the pig farm to a certain extent, and also reduce the range of feed that needs to be put in, which is regarded as reducing the working time of pig farmers to a certain extent.

3. Electric heating

This is a method brought about by technological progress, which is currently being widely deployed. At present, infrared lamps or electric heating plates are two kinds of insulation tools, both of which are placed inside the pig farm, and the effect of insulation has been achieved by increasing the indoor temperature. However, according to the current situation of some users, this service life needs to be improved, and the cost is relatively high. Generally, large pig farms can try it.

4. Floor heating

The use of floor heating is currently used more in the north and less in the south. At present, there are two mainstream, one is through coal and the like heating, one is through hot water and the like heating, the effect is relatively long-lasting. Generally, pipes are buried underground, and then heating substances can be added to them. Xiaobian here recommended the use of plumbing, one is environmental protection, the second is lower cost, the third is the effect is more durable.

The above are several ways to keep pigs warm. In fact, many places have their own unique ways of keeping pigs warm. If you want to share them, you can recommend them to us. Welcome everyone to communicate with us more oh.
