Proper Feeding

[nemo]

Options:

If you have limited budget. Go to selling piglets Every area have different price range but now at the current situation of the swine industry you can sell your piglets at 1,800 at 30-day old. If you're around region three that's the price.

IF you have many piglets you could sell half and maintain the other half as fattener.

Fattener price depending on the region. You could look at the post of Sir Slyfox. So, roughly it would range on that area.

In swine business the core  of the operation is the sow production.

I just wish I could understand you doncorleone.

I'm newbie here in gensan. My problem is I don't know where to sell my my pigs. I've talked to the middle man but his asking price is only 66/kilo.

[nemo]

Doncorleone is saying that he is new in this business and he still don't know where to sell his produce. He is from gensan.

--------------

Try to ask near by raisers if they could give you contacts.

For starters this really the first challenge.

[mr hog]

doc,
   good day po sa kanila...tanung ko lang po doc masama po ba na nakababad ang feeds sa tubig,anu po ang advantages at disadvantages nito sa growth rate ng hayop?or mawawala po ba ang mga important nutrients dito na kailangan ng baboy pag nakababad po ito sa tubig?ang balak ko po kasi doc gagawa na lang ako ng concrete tank with faucet and ilalagay ko po dun yung feeds mix with water and every feeding time pipihitin ko lang po yung faucet at lalabas yung feeds diretso sa feeder nila..naisip ko po ito kasi hindi masyado kailangan ng manpower at hindi sya time cunsuming compare po sa scoop per feeding....anu po ang opinyon nyo dito doc?thank you and more power

Mapapanis ang pagkain
Kung gravity lang ang magtutulak sa pagkain mo kakailanganin mo ng maraming tubig.

Sa ibang bansa ginagawa yun fermented feeds. Nilalagay ang pagkain sa isang lalagyan na medyo airtight then magkakaroon ng bacterial production para maferment ang pagkain at ito ang ibibgay sa baboy. Specialized piping system ang kanilang ginagamit para ito ideliver




-----------------------------
Feeds will be spoiled if you do this.

And if you will only use the force of gravity to flush the feeds to your pens then you will need a lot of water to do this.

iN other country they use  fermented feeds and it is being delivered through a specialized piping system.

Feeds is stored in a tank with minimal air then anaerobic bacteria like lactobacilli will ferment the feeds . they sometimes call it gruel, this gruel what the animal then eats

Hi Doc,

Please explain to us mathematically or in simple english about :

1. Average Daily Gain ( ADG )
2. Feed Conversion Ratio ( FCR )

Thanks.

[nemo]

ADG= [Final weight - initial weight] divided by number of days it was fattened
     = 85 kgs - 1.5 kgs (weight at birth) / 150 days
=0.556 grams /day

some compute ADG at weaning weight na
 =85 kg - 8.5 kg (weaning weight) / 120 days
=0.638 grams / per day
the higher the number the better
------------------

FCR = the amount of feed given to the animal to gain 1 kilo of meat

FCR= total amount of feed consumed(booster, prestarter, starter, grower, finisher) / final weight
     = 200kgs of feeds / 85 kgs
    = 2.35
the lower the lumber the better.

[sanico]

Doc, ang ibig sabihin ng FCR, ay weight o timbang na na-e-convert ng baboy sa pagkain niya araw-araw ?
At ang ADG naman ay ang average na timbang nakuha from birth to selling ? OR Vice Versa ?
Nalilito lang ako....

ADG= [Final weight - initial weight] divided by number of days it was fattened
     = 85 kgs - 1.5 kgs (weight at birth) / 150 days
