Feeding pigs is a big deal, but whether you should feed dry powder, wet mix or pellets has always puzzled many farmers. Today, I will talk about this topic carefully and hope to help pig friends. 6hj China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

1. First of all, there should be a distinction between pigs of different ages. 6hj China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

From the digestive physiology characteristics of piglets, the advantage of feeding wet feed or porridge to piglets is higher than that of powder or pellets. According to the study, feeding the dry material will cause the intestines of the piglets to shrink and the crypts to become deeper, thus limiting the growth rate. In the case of maintaining nutrients, the powder is lower in cost than the pellets. 6hj China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

For finishing pigs, feeding powder has the advantages of labor saving and stress reduction. It has been observed that feeding dry powder is much less than the amount of feed slag in the feces of the wet-mixed pigs. 6hj China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

However, because pigs like to eat, they often contain feed to drink water, which causes waste of feed and wastes water. In addition, feeding dry powders also has the potential to increase dust in the air, making it difficult to observe sick pigs in time. 6hj China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

2, several feed advantages and disadvantages comparison 6hj China feed industry information network - based on feed, service animal husbandry

Dry powder: 6hj China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

01, can eat freely, to meet the needs of rapid growth of pigs; 6hj China feed industry information network - based on feed, service animal husbandry

02, saving manpower, if the trough is large, can reduce the number of feeding, plus free drinking water, one can manage a very large number of pigs; 6hj China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

03, adapt to pig facilities, because the current nursery pigs are mostly farmed on the Internet, it is convenient to put a free feeding trough, but if you use the trough of wet mix, it is more troublesome. 6hj China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

Wet Mix : 6hj China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

01, can limit the intake of food, especially in the stage of just entering, can effectively prevent the occurrence of diarrhea; 6hj China feed industry information network - based on feed, service animal husbandry

02, improve feed utilization, pigs eat eighty-nine points full of digestion and utilization of feed is the most ideal, and free-feeding places will eat very full; 6hj China feed industry information network - based on feed, service animal husbandry

03, can detect sick and weak pigs in time, because pigs who do not take the initiative to eat food often have problems; 6hj China feed industry information network - based on feed, service animal husbandry

04, can prevent respiratory diseases, because the wet mix feeds no dust, reducing the chance of spreading diseases through the powder. 6hj China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

Pellet material: 6hj China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

01, easy to feed, low loss, not easy to mold, high digestibility of nutrients; 6hj China feed industry information network - based on feed, service animal husbandry

02. The weight gain and feed conversion rate of pellet feeds are better than dry powders (a large number of tests have proved that pellets can reduce feed consumption by 0.2 kg per kilogram of weight gain). 6hj China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

Different shapes of feed have different feeding effects. In general, the feeding effect of pellet feed is better than that of dry powder because the pellet feed is ripened and granulated, and the feed is easier to digest. The dry powder has poor palatability and large dust, which is easy to cause respiratory diseases in pigs. 6hj China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

Which method to use depends on the actual situation of the field: such as the size of the feeding, the type of pig, the responsibility of the breeder, the cost of feed and the final return. The purely fattening pig farm can feed the newly purchased piglets by means of wet mix, so as to promptly select the sick pigs for rapid treatment. 6hj China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

Some pig farms reduce the waste of feed on dry feed, and adopt a less-added approach to keep the feed in the trough that is kept low enough for pigs to eat freely. Especially in the summer, in order to increase the energy content in the feed, after adding vegetable oil to the feed, there is no more feed in the trough to avoid rancidity. 6hj China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

For pregnant sows, because they are fed by limited feeding methods, powders are generally used to reduce costs. If the number of sows is small, it is recommended to use wet mixes. In order to increase the feed intake of lactating sows, it is best to use a wet mix to feed and increase the number of feedings. 6hj China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry
