Live pigs live in buildings that save land and increase efficiency.

On November 7, the reporter came to Xinqiaotun, Shangdu Town, Pingnan County, Guigang City, Guangxi Province. Two brand-new five-story buildings in Tunli attracted particular attention-- they looked like modern office buildings from a distance, but what was heard one after another was the sound of pigs barking one after another.

It turned out that this was a special wild boar farm covered by Zhou Qifeng, a young man in the county. He enthusiastically led the reporter upstairs for a tour. Although it is a pig farm, it is not as smelly as a traditional pig farm. Only the floor of the pig house is clean, and the division of labor of the pig farm is clear. The first floor is the pig growth room, and the second floor is the pig birth room and nursery. After getting pregnant on the third floor, the sows "take" the elevator to the second floor to give birth, and the piglets are fed in the nursery on the second floor before weaning, and "take" the elevator to the first floor after weaning. In this pigsty, more than 1400 wild boars enjoy the treatment of living in apartments and "taking" special elevators. The elevator is actually a lift. After the workers drive the sow into the elevator, close the fence door and fix the pig, press the switch, and the sow will safely descend from the third floor to the second floor.

Most of other people's pigs are raised in pig pens, but Zhou Qifeng's wild boar enjoys "preferential treatment." Zhou Qifeng told reporters: "the primary advantage of raising pigs in a building is the intensive use of land. a building can hold more than 500 breeding sows, which is equivalent to a pig farm of dozens of mu; second, there is a gap from high buildings to low buildings, which can facilitate sewage discharge and centralized treatment of sewage; third, high buildings have good ventilation and lighting, which can effectively prevent the spread of germs. At present, the pig farm is still under construction, and the company plans to invest 200 million yuan to build a provenance breeding base for 10, 000 sows, with an annual output of 200000 wild boars, and to build 30, 000 square meters of pig houses and 100000 square meters of wild boar playground. build a feed processing plant with an annual output of 50, 000 tons, a meat processing plant with an annual processing capacity of 10, 000 tons, and a scientific research office building. "

The reporter found that Zhou Qifeng was not the only one who built buildings and raised pigs in Pingnan County. Quan Zhaowei, a farmer in Dazhou Town, told the reporter: "I have been raising pigs since 2007. As the scale is getting bigger and bigger, the pig houses needed are getting wider and wider, but it is not easy to rent a piece of land in our village to raise pigs. So I came up with the idea of building buildings to raise pigs." Since last year, Quan Zhaowei has invested more than 600,000 yuan to transform the original pig house into a four-story pig house and build a new four-story pig house, turning the staircase into a sloping staircase to facilitate pigs up and down. Quan Zhaowei calculated an account for the reporter: "the two buildings cover an area of less than 400square meters, but they can produce more than 3200 pigs a year." Although the one-time investment in building buildings and raising pigs is larger, it is very cost-effective in terms of long-term benefits and management. "
