Stock quantity and output rate are the two most important data for large pig breeding households, but in Liangshui Village, Futian Town, Wushan County, Chongqing City, Liu Debin, a college student pig shepherd, has his own ideas.

He did not raise many pigs, but insisted on green feeding, allowing pigs to move freely on the hillside. Although a pig has to be fed for a year, Liu Debin feels that the economic benefits of this ecological pig are more considerable than feed pigs.

"Green Feed + Free Activity"

The so-called ecological pig breeding means not feeding feed, and breeding pigs in the wild, combining domestication with breeding.

Through market investigation, Liu Debin found that green food is gradually popular in the market, people are no longer satisfied with being able to eat enough, but more want to eat healthy.

Therefore, Liu Debin invested more than 600,000 yuan to build a new pig farm, bought 80 piglets, and fed piglets with pig food prepared from platycodon grandiflorum, corn and sweet potato powder. Each pigsty also opened a small door, piglets can freely run to the outdoor hillside activities, hungry and then return to the pigsty for food.

In order to make pork more green and environmentally friendly, Liu Debin also taught himself Chinese medicine to cure pigs."rhubarb grass, banana leaves, etc. have the effects of clearing heat, detoxification and sterilization." Usually, pigs have some minor problems such as colds and fevers. I will add the herbal medicine into pig food for pigs to take. Not only will the side effects be small, but it can also enhance the immunity of pigs."

"Application certificate + WeChat sales"

Ordinary feed pigs can be sold once every four months, Liu Debin's "environmental pigs" can only be sold after feeding for a year.

Still, Liu Debin is not worried about losing money at all. He said: "The price of feed pigs is on the market, and if there are more farmers, it is easy to rot." The pigs I raise are mainly ecological and healthy. They can be sold for 18 yuan per catty. Currently, they are basically in short supply. There is no need to worry about the problem of price reduction in the rotten market."

Last year, Liu Debin successfully applied for the "pollution-free pork" certificate. Then, he set up his own Weixin Official Accounts, compiled sales information with pictures and texts, and published it in the circle of friends.

Liu Debin's Weixin Official Accounts now have more than 6000 fans through word of mouth in the circle of friends.

He also intends to open a physical store in the neighboring Fengjie County,"the combination of online sales and physical stores, the credibility is more secure." This year, I have more than 200 live pigs, and sales will be better."

"Pig manure fermentation + self-feeding"

Not long ago, Liu Debin transformed the pigsty, dug septic tank under the pigsty, and fermented pig manure.

Pig manure is processed into biogas residue, biogas slurry and biogas. Biogas slurry flows into the field through pipelines to provide fertilizer for the growth of more than 1000 mu citrus trees in the village; biogas residue is used to produce organic fertilizer; biogas can be used for cooking. Nowadays, you can't smell the smell when you walk into a pig farm. Liu Debin is very satisfied with this environmental protection ecological treatment system.

Within the year, Liu Debin also plans to transfer dozens of acres of land to plant corn, sweet potato and other cash crops. "After planting corn and sweet potato by ourselves next year, farm manure will be applied, which not only solves the pig manure problem, but also further ensures that pigs eat green and healthy." Liu Debin said.
