Why do pigs not eat in summer?
1. High temperature in summer leads to loss of appetite
Most pigs are fat, strong and have thick sebum, so the heat dissipation is very slow. Coupled with the continuous high temperature of the weather, it is easy to cause the pigs to lose their appetite and not eat.

2. Pig house environment is poor
Mosquitoes and germs are easy to breed in hot and humid summer, and the environment of the pig house should also be cleaned up in time, otherwise it will easily cause the pigs to feel irritable and affect their appetite.

3. Feed mildew leads to disease
It is rainy in summer, and if the feed is not placed well, it is easy to produce mycotoxins. Pigs will lose their appetite after eating moldy food, and in severe cases, it will cause mycotoxin poisoning and threaten the health of pigs.
