Nowadays, pig farming has become more modernized after the introduction of pig farming equipment. Family style captive farming has been phased out with the rise of environmental protection and has become automated and clean. What are the requirements for using pig farming equipment? Below, the editor will briefly share with you, hoping to be helpful to everyone.
1. Boar pen: Adult boars can grow up to 2 meters in length for easy turning. Generally, the width and length of the boar pen are not less than 2.4 meters and 3 meters respectively, and the height of the fence is not less than 1.2 meters. There is also a sports field outside the pen to increase the amount of exercise and prolong the service life of the boars.
2. Breeding pen: It is necessary to set up a separate breeding pen in a ten thousand head pig farm. As the breeding boars need to approach the hindquarters of the sows before climbing up for breeding, the length of the pigsty should be at least the sum of the nose to tail lengths of the breeding boars and sows. Also, as the breeding boars chase the sows in the pigsty before breeding, they need space to walk forward in the pigsty, so that they do not rely on their hind limbs as a fulcrum or arch their backs to turn around. According to the above principle, the length of the breeding pen is not less than 3.5-4.0m and the width is not less than 3.0m. Since it is very difficult for boars to approach young sows in the corners of the pigsty, the breeding pen is designed in an octagonal shape, and the ground of the pigsty is Anti slip design, no obstacles such as feeding troughs or water dispensers are installed inside the house to affect the balance of the pigs.
3. Single limit fence for sows: The purpose is to save the area of the pigsty and facilitate feeding management, but not to be too tight and affect productivity. The single limit fence for sows is designed with front and back doors for easy entry and exit.
