Scientific feeding guide for pregnant sows

Feeding pregnant sows plays a vital role in the health and production of pigs. The following is a scientific feeding guide to help farmers better care for pregnant sows and ensure the health of sows and piglets.

1. Feed selection

During pregnancy, sows need to pay special attention to the selection of feed. They should choose high-nutrition feed rich in protein, vitamins and minerals, such as corn, soybean meal, fish meal, etc. Reasonable feed combination is conducive to the growth of sows and the healthy development of the fetus.

2. Feed quantity

The amount of feed required by pregnant sows varies at different stages. Generally speaking, the amount of feed can be gradually increased in the early stage, and the supply of energy and protein should be appropriately increased in the later stage, but excessive obesity should be avoided to affect the smooth birth of piglets.

3. Drink water

Sows need to drink enough water during pregnancy to maintain their metabolism and health. Clean the water source regularly to ensure the water quality and ensure that the sows can drink clean water at any time.

4. Vitamin and mineral supplements

In addition to staple food, sows also need an appropriate amount of vitamins and minerals. Farmers can add an appropriate amount of vitamin supplements, such as vitamin E, vitamin B, etc., to the feed to help sows absorb nutrients better.

5. Regular medical check-ups

During pregnancy, it is very necessary to conduct regular physical examinations on sows. Check the sow's weight, behavior and mental state, detect abnormalities in time and make adjustments to ensure the health of the sow and fetus.

By following the above scientific feeding guidelines, you can better care for pregnant sows and provide comprehensive protection for the health of sows and piglets.
