Pig breeding and management in winter
1. Feed management
Winter is an important period for the growth and development of pigs, and nutritional intake is very important. Appropriate feed should be provided according to the age group and growth stage of the pig. Generally speaking, small meals should be eaten frequently in the early stage, and the amount and frequency of feeding should be gradually increased. In order to avoid overfeeding and food waste, the type and quantity of feed should be adjusted according to the growth status and feed situation of the pigs.
2.Water source management
Water source management in winter must also be paid attention to. Water temperatures that are too low will result in insufficient water intake for pigs, which may cause digestive system diseases. Therefore, the water source must be kept within a suitable temperature range, and insulation facilities such as heating equipment, antifreeze pipes, etc. must be used. At the same time, the water source must be changed regularly to ensure the health of the pigs.
3. Disease prevention and control
Winter is the active period for many diseases, such as worm disease, swine fever, swine pneumonia, etc. In order to prevent pigs from suffering from diseases, disinfection, vaccination, isolation and other work should be carried out frequently. In addition, effective anti-insect measures should be taken to keep the pig house clean and hygienic.
4.Environmental health
Environmental sanitation is one of the important tasks of winter feeding and management. There should be no debris accumulated or dust in the pig house. Clean and clean the pig house materials regularly to maintain a clean and hygienic environment. Pay attention to the garbage disposal inside and outside the pig house to avoid the reproduction of garbage mold and damage to the feed.
