Hot summer pig need to know four things
In fact, it is not difficult to raise pigs in summer. For pig farmers who raise pigs all the year round, what should be paid attention to is very clear. For this summer, pig raising should know four things. Have you done all of them well? In fact, when it comes to the precautions for raising pigs in summer, it is nothing more than three things: cooling down, strengthening breeding, mosquito repellent and disease prevention. However, for pig farmers this summer, one more thing should be paid attention to. It is to choose an opportunity to be on the market. Below we understand in detail:

1. heatstroke prevention and cooling
Recently, the higher temperature in some parts of the country is basically above 35 degrees Celsius. For pig farm management, it is essential and the most important thing is to do a good job of heatstroke prevention and cooling. It is recommended to proceed from the following aspects:
1. Reduce the temperature in the pig house
You can build a shed outside the pig house to play a shading effect, or you can plant plants outside the pig house to achieve a shading effect.
2. Cooling with water
① According to the internal situation of the pig house, flush the ground and wall with appropriate amount of cold water to reduce the temperature in the house.
② Sometimes, when the temperature is high, if necessary, cold water can be used to wash the body surface of the pig to help the pig to dissipate heat and cool down.
③ In a pig farm where conditions permit, a shallow pool can be dug in or near the shade of the pig farm, and after water is injected into it, the pig can go down to take a bath at any time. This is also a good way to prevent heatstroke and cool down.
④There is also a common method, which is to pay attention to providing sufficient drinking water to the pigs every day, so that they can drink directly when they need it, which can prevent pigs from heatstroke to a large extent.
⑤ For feasible pig farms, cold water can also be sprayed on the roof of the pig house to reduce the temperature in the pig house.
3. For large-scale pig farms, fans are installed inside, and even some pig houses have been installed with air conditioners. These mechanical cooling equipment are also a good choice.
2. adjust feeding and repel mosquitoes
1, feeding. In the process of feeding pigs in summer, we should also pay attention to reduce the amount of energy in the feed and improve the protein level. Conditional pig farms can also feed pigs with green and juicy feed in moderation. Pay attention to the daily feed to be fresh, do a good job in feed management, to avoid the occurrence of feed mildew.
2. Repellent mosquitoes. There are more mosquitoes in summer, which not only affects the life and growth of pigs, but also may become the medium of the disease in severe cases. Therefore, if there are more mosquitoes in the pig house, we must be vigilant and take timely measures to repel mosquitoes.
Prevention and control of common 3. diseases
1. African swine fever
Although the current non-plague epidemic in our country has gradually gone, it is still the disease that pig farms need to be vigilant and focus on prevention and control.
2. Heat stress
If the pig house is not properly managed and the heatstroke prevention and cooling work is not done, the pig heat stress phenomenon is more likely to occur. It is recommended to pay attention to preventive work at ordinary times. Once a pig has heat stress, emergency measures should be taken as soon as possible to treat the sick pig.
3. Eperythrozoonosis of swine
The incidence of the disease was higher in July-September than in other seasons, especially in sows and suckling piglets. The disease should be isolated and treated in time, and attention should be paid to avoid the spread of the disease.
4. selection machine out
Since the beginning of this year, the overall domestic pig prices have shown a continuous downward trend. So far, although there has been a rise, the recent market is still weak and adjusted. At present, the production capacity on the Chinese market has gradually recovered, and even if there is an increase in the later period, the magnitude will not be too large. Generally speaking, pig prices in the future will still be in a trend of fluctuation and adjustment. Therefore, at this time, it is suggested that pig farmers should pay attention to the daily rise and fall of pig prices and choose an opportunity to put on the market so as to maintain good benefits and do not blindly press the market.
