Winter in the north is very cold. How to raise pigs in the north for the winter?

People's going out to work is obviously reduced, which is also the most difficult period for pig farm management. Of course, due to the geographical location, it is warm in the south and snowy in the north. Therefore, in the cold winter, it is necessary to do a good job of cold prevention and warmth, so that pig farms can safely spend the winter.

Friends who raise pigs in rural areas raise pigs in relatively simple sheds without heating equipment, which leads to low temperature in pig farms, cold, illness and even death of pigs. In fact, in the aspect of cold protection and heat preservation of pig farms, as long as the pig farms in rural areas make up their minds, pigs can survive the winter safely.

When the weather starts to get cold in late autumn and early winter, the pig farm should enclose the pigsty with cloth to prevent the cold wind from blowing on the pigs and make the pigsty have a certain temperature. In addition, when feeding pigs, you can appropriately increase energy feed (eat more corn) or shake pigs with vegetable oil to generate a lot of heat in pigs to prevent cold weather attacks.

In addition, there are abundant abandoned resources in rural areas, which can be used to keep out the cold. It's a big secret of pig farms for winter, but pig farms have not found it. So, what are the big magic weapons? They are loess, straw, vegetation and ginger.

Loess is a yellow clod buried underground, which is rich in various trace elements and is necessary for pigs. It usually takes one meter to get there. So how to use loess? After cleaning the pigsty in the morning, sprinkle loess every time, so that pigs can enjoy it freely, which can not only prevent cold and keep warm, but also reduce the phenomenon of biting pig's tail.

Rice is a crop that grows in summer. It absorbs some heat and certain elements and releases them at the right time. Therefore, in the cold winter, laying thick straw in the pigsty can make the pigs sleep well.

Super wood, also known as paraquat, is the residue of burning plants, rich in trace elements such as potassium, phosphorus and magnesium, and has a strong adsorption effect. Therefore, putting grass and firewood in the wet pigsty can absorb the moisture in the air and raise the temperature of the pigsty. Sprinkling grass and firewood in pigsty can not only play the role of sanitation and disinfection, but also treat pig diarrhea.

Ginger is a commonly used condiment, mild in nature, with the effects of dispelling wind and cold, resolving phlegm and relieving cough, warming up vomiting, detoxicating and stopping diarrhea, and it is an "antiemetic drug" in traditional Chinese medicine. Therefore, especially in cold days, drinking ginger soup for pigs can not only keep warm, but also improve the disease resistance of pigs.
