CATDOLL : How to feed sows scientifically to make them give birth to more piglets

Choose the right feed

The type of feed for sows is very important. You should choose feed rich in protein, vitamins and minerals, such as corn, soybean cake, silage, etc. Make sure the feed is of good quality, dry and free of mold.

Feed regularly and keep them separately

The daily feed for sows should be fixed, regular and quantitative. In addition, sows at different stages are best raised separately, as there are different feeding requirements during pregnancy, lactation and piglet periods.

Keeping water clean

Sows need a lot of water during pregnancy and lactation. Make sure the water source is clean and hygienic and maintain an adequate water supply to maintain the sow's physiological needs.

Keep the environment comfortable

The growth environment of the sow also has a great impact on the number of piglets born. Keeping the environment clean and dry, maintaining appropriate temperature and humidity, and reducing environmental noise and interference are beneficial to the health and reproduction of sows.

Regular check-ups and vaccinations

Ask a veterinarian to check the sows regularly to ensure their health. In addition, vaccinate the sows according to the veterinarian's advice to prevent infectious diseases and improve reproductive efficiency.

Scientific breeding

During the estrus period of the sow, suitable boars are selected for scientific breeding to ensure good genetic gene transmission of the pig breed and improve the survival rate and quality of the piglets.

Through scientific feeding management and good breeding strategies, the number of offspring and the quality of reproduction of sows can be effectively improved, ensuring the efficiency and economic benefits of the pig farm.
