Does the pig industry make money after all?

Does the pig industry make money after all?  Do these four things well, pig farm money is not a problem

Pig farm industry is one of the traditional breeding industries in China, which has a history of thousands of years. By now, China has become the world's largest pig producer. So is pig farming profitable? The following is a brief introduction.

First, pig farms are definitely profitable.

However, as with other industries, not every pig farmer makes money. Some farms lose money, others make money. Only pig farms can make money.

The main factors affecting money are: pig price, quantity, speed, disease incidence, cure and so on. In theory, if the incidence of disease is low, you can at least not lose money on self-breeding, but if the price of pigs is low, you can probably lose money on buying piglets for breeding. When pig prices rise, more money can be transferred only if the breeding rate and survival rate of pig farms are guaranteed.

Does the pig industry make money after all?

But can pig farming make money? The key is to reduce the cost of farming. There are mainly three aspects: First, seize the opportunity to raise pig farms under the condition of market shaking, we should pay attention to four periods, namely the trough period, the development period, the peak period and the decline period. The bottom of the pig market wobble is a good time for pig farmers to enter. At this time, the price of piglets and breeding pigs is lower, and the input cost of pig farm is lower. When the pig market gradually out of the trough into the development period, pig farmers should accelerate the expansion of planning; When the pig market enters the peak, pig farmers should produce pigs as soon as possible, in order to obtain a good benefit; When pig production went into decline,

Second, moderate planning. Large-scale pig farming involves capital, skills, land, environmental protection and many other issues. Demand is gradual, not overnight. However, in the process of pig farm production, it is still necessary for farmers to carry out appropriate planning and breeding according to their actual situation. This is because the farmer's pig farm plan is too small, even if the pig farm efficiency is good, raising one or two pigs is difficult to obtain significant benefits; When the benefit of pig farms is not good, the first battle in the place is a great loss and may be busy in vain.

Third, epidemic prevention and control. In recent years, the atypical symptoms, mixed infection and drug resistance of swine epidemics caused by African swine fever have increased significantly. The cost of epidemic prevention and control has become one of the important costs, even in some periods become a key factor in determining the efficiency of pig farms. Therefore, pig farmers should change the thinking of "emphasizing treatment over prevention" and establish the concept of "prevention first", starting from the site selection of pig farms, pig house design, programmed epidemic prevention, scientific feeding and other aspects. In order to greatly avoid the epidemic.

To sum up: pig farms still make money, as long as a good grasp of the market, scientific pig farms, reduce breeding costs, we can get better earnings.
