Little knowledge of pig raising in summer A must-see in raising pigs!

1. Pay attention to heatstroke prevention and cooling

In summer, because the weather is too hot, and if the pigsty is small, the temperature will be higher. At this time, piglets will not like to eat like us humans. What we need to do at this time is to reduce the temperature of the pigsty. Considering this problem, when building the pigsty at the beginning, it should be selected in a place without direct sunlight. This is one of them. Second, if this problem is not taken into account at the beginning, we must adopt artificial cooling methods. First, we must ensure adequate ventilation, open a few more ventilation windows, or reinforce a layer of temperature isolation on the top of the pigpen. This can also effectively reduce the temperature of the pigsty. Another commonly used method is to cool down with water vapor, which can be sprayed with water mist from time to time.

2. Mosquito repellent

Due to the influence of stress factors such as hot weather in summer and autumn, pigs have poor appetite, increased sensitivity and reduced resistance. If they are harassed by crawling flies during the day and biting by mosquitoes at night, the pigs will be restless and not get enough rest, which will affect their growth and feed utilization at light level. It will also lead to symptoms such as anemia, allergies, redness and swelling, and a serious decline in resistance, which will lead to hidden dangers of disease.

The presence of mosquitoes and flies on pig farms can spread the disease in summer. In summer, there are a lot of mosquitoes and flies, which is a headache for many farmers. If the mosquito and fly control is not done well, it is likely to lead to frequent epidemics of pig farms. Breeders can choose some mosquito and fly killing products that can be safely used by pig farms to kill.

3. Feed mildew

In summer, the temperature and humidity are high, and it often rains in some of our areas, so the feed is very prone to mildew, which affects the health of pigs. If our mixed feed is not stored properly, mycotoxins will soon be produced within a day or two, and pigs are prone to problems when eating this feed. So the mold remover is definitely essential, we can use: Kemold Taibao, use it to prevent mildew and mildew.

4. Scientific feeding

Now that summer has come, when the temperature sometimes exceeds 30°C-33°C, pigs are easily unable to take in enough nutrients due to the decrease in feed intake, the feed-to-meat ratio increases, and the production performance decreases; at the same time, the suitable temperature and humidity in summer give Bacteria provide a good breeding environment and cause disease to spread.

(1) Select fresh, high-quality and palatable raw materials, and moderately reduce the proportion of crude fiber in the diet to reduce the generation of body heat.

(2) Improve the protein level of the diet. High-protein diets can increase the appetite of pigs and increase the feed intake of pigs.

(3) In the high temperature environment, the metabolism of vitamins in the body is strengthened, and the demand for vitamins in pigs also increases. At this time, moderately increasing the content of vitamins and minerals in the diet can alleviate the impact of heat stress on pigs.

(4) Add Chinese herbal medicine additives to the diet. Chinese herbal medicine can comprehensively regulate the physiological metabolism of pigs under high temperature, promote the growth and development of pigs, and improve the immune function of the body.

(5) Conditional pig farms can add green and juicy feed to the pig herd.
