Reasonable grouping and grouping method of pig

In the process of raising pigs, it is often due to the phenomenon of biting and fighting of pigs with different sources and weight, which seriously affects the health and growth rate of pigs, so it is necessary to take measures of reasonable grouping to maintain a proper feeding density, and to improve the efficiency of raising pigs through the method of merging. Let's learn about the grouping and merging methods of raising pigs from the editor below.

1. The principle of clustering

When grouping, pigs with similar sources, body weight, food intake, pigs with little difference and herds should be raised, while pigs with different health sources and body weight, as well as pigs that are easy to fight, should be raised in groups and fed in grooves to make them grow normally. When grouping, it should be noted that the weight difference of pigs in the group should not be too large, generally, piglets should not exceed 3-5 kilograms, fattening pigs should not exceed 50-10 kilograms, and should be properly kept stable after grouping, not with changes, so as not to cause discomfort to pigs. There are fights and bites.

2. Feeding density

The most important thing in grouping is the feeding density. The feeding density of pigs in different growth stages is different. Generally, the weaned piglets account for 0.7 square meters, while the fattening pigs occupy an area of 1.2 square meters. Each group generally raises 10-15 heads, which is not easy to manage. In winter, the temperature is relatively low, which can appropriately increase the feeding density and keep the pigs warm each other, while the summer is hot and hot, and the high feeding density is not conducive to heat dissipation, so it is necessary to appropriately reduce the feeding density.

3. Union group method

The purpose of the group is to bite and fight at the initial stage of the group, and the group should keep the weak pigs in the original circle, and the weaker pigs should stay in the original circle, and the stronger ones should be transferred out of the original circle; dismantle more but not dismantle the few pigs in the original circle, and merge the pigs with more heads into them; the night is not the same as the day, and the group time should be at night, spraying the pigs with the same smell to make them smell the same. First cooked and then, the pigs are locked in a larger enclosure to make them familiar with the smell, and in the group; when they are hungry and full, the pigs will sleep soundly when they are full and will not disturb each other, but fighting will occur in order to grab feed during hunger.

4. Strengthen the management

Before joining the group, the enclosure should be cleaned, the disinfection work should be done strictly, and the feeding and management should be strengthened at the initial stage of herding. If the phenomenon of fighting occurs, it is necessary to stop and protect the weak pigs in time until they live in peace and harmony.
