CATDOLL : CATDOLL: How to adjust sow backfat and what to pay attention to

Why is it necessary to adjust sow backfat?

Adjusting the sow's backfat is an important management task for the livestock farming industry. Too much or too little backfat will have a negative impact on the sow's health and production performance. Therefore, understanding how to properly adjust the sow's backfat is essential knowledge for farmers.

Backfat adjustment goals

The main goal of adjusting the sow's back fat is to make it reach the best state, which can not only ensure the health of the sow, but also improve the reproductive effect. Reasonable back fat adjustment can ensure that the sow has good physical strength and reproductive ability, thereby increasing the birth rate and the growth rate of piglets.

The causes and adjustment methods of excessive back fat

Excessive back fat may be caused by excessive feed supply or unbalanced nutrition. In order to adjust sows with excessive back fat, it is necessary to appropriately reduce feed supply, increase exercise, and choose a suitable feed formula. In addition, fat loss can be helped by increasing fiber intake and controlling the supply of high-energy feed.

The causes and adjustment methods of thin back fat

Too little back fat may be caused by insufficient feed supply, insufficient nutrition or digestion and absorption problems. In order to adjust sows with too little back fat, it is necessary to increase the feed supply and choose a high-energy, high-protein feed formula. In addition, appropriate amounts of nutrients such as vitamins, minerals and amino acids can be added to improve the quality of back fat.

Notes on backfat adjustment

• Check the back fat status of sows regularly, identify problems in time and take corresponding measures.
• Reasonably control feed supply and feed formula to ensure sows get proper nutrition.
• Strengthen feeding management and provide a comfortable environment and suitable drinking water conditions.
• Give sows regular exercise to promote metabolism and fat burning.
• Clean the pig house in time to keep the environment clean and prevent infection and infectious diseases.

Adjusting the sow's back fat is an important task in the breeding process. Farmers should formulate appropriate adjustment plans according to specific circumstances and strengthen daily management to ensure the health and production performance of sows.
