What if fattening pigs grow slowly?

Raising pigs is a very common breeding project in our daily life. Pork is a kind of meat product with the largest consumption in our country every year. Although the price of pork is rising, there is still a great market demand. However, when we are fattening pigs, we will find that fattening pigs grow very slowly, seriously affecting the efficiency of breeding. So what should we do if the fattening pig grows slowly? Let's take a look at it with the editor.

1. Feeding management

When feeding fattening pigs, we should pay attention to the principle of timing and quantity, and should not be changed casually. Let pigs be raised into a fixed conditioned reflex to improve the conversion rate of feed utilization. Pigs are fed about three times a day, and once more if they weigh less than 50 jin. The feeding amount should be controlled at 4% of the pig's body weight. Young pigs should be fed more appropriately, while big pigs should be fed less. After feeding, it is necessary to make every pig full, and it is better not to have any leftovers, which is very beneficial to the growth of fattening pigs.

2. Feeding method

When we put in the feed, we should also pay attention to control the feed feeding method. When feeding, the feed should be controlled according to the actual situation of pigs in each pen, and then the feed should be kept evenly from one end of the trough to the other. In this way, it is possible to ensure that each pig has a uniform feed. And for some pigs that do not dare to grab food, they can also eat at both ends to avoid the phenomenon of individual pigs losing weight. Then before feeding, attention should be paid to the cleaning and disinfection of the trough, especially the excreta in the trough. After eating, we should pay attention to clean up the leftovers in the trough to prevent contamination and lead to feed waste.

3. Feed form

When feeding, we should also pay attention to the form of feed. The main feeding forms of fattening pigs are dilute material, dry material, wet mixture and so on. The feed should not be too thin, which will affect the chewing of fattening pigs, lead to dilution of digestive juice, and have a great impact on the food intake of fattening pigs and reduce the meat yield. Therefore, we should pay attention to the dilution degree of the dilute material, not too thin. Dry feed can increase the chewing time of feed in the mouth of fattening pigs, and then the meat yield can be significantly increased when the feed is mixed with digestive juice. Wet mixing is mainly to wet the mixing material, which can improve the feeding efficiency.

4. Timely refueling

Feed feeding can not be fed alone for a long time, the feed of fattening pigs should pay attention to the conversion of feed according to the growth stage of pigs. Feed the piglets before 60 jin. Pigs in the weight range of 60-120 jin should be fed with medium feed, and then fed with large feed after 120 jin until the pig comes out of the pen. Reasonable feeding work is mainly to enable fattening pigs to adapt to feed at all growth stages, but also to reduce feed costs.

The above is a brief introduction to how fattening pigs grow slowly. That's all for today's introduction. This article is for reference only. I hope it can help you all.
