*Raising fattening pigs* step-by-step para umabot sa market weight na 80-100kg in 5-6 months:
*1. Start with good piglets*
- Piliin yung 8-10 weeks old, 15-20kg na timbang
- Healthy: masigla, walang ubo/sipon, walang pagtatae
- Good breeds: Large White, Landrace, o Duroc cross
*2. Housing setup*
- Space: 0.6-0.9 sqm per pig gaya ng sabi ko kanina
- Dapat may shade, hindi basa, at may good ventilation
- Lagyan ng separate na area for eating, sleeping, at dunging
- Floor: Semento na medyo magaspang para hindi madulas
*3. Feeding program*
- *Starter 15-30kg*: 18-20% protein. Pakain 3-4x a day
- *Grower 30-60kg*: 16-18% protein. Pakain 2-3x a day
- *Finisher 60kg-market*: 14-16% protein. Pakain 2x a day
- Rule: 3-4% ng body weight nila ang dami ng feeds per day
- Laging may malinis na tubig 24/7
*4. Health management*
- Deworm: 3-5 days old, tapos every month hanggang market
- Vitamins: Injectable iron sa biik + water-soluble vitamins weekly
- Bakuna: Hog cholera at 4-6 weeks old
- Paligo araw-araw pag mainit para iwas heat stress
*5. Daily routine*
- Linisin ang kulungan 1-2x a day para iwas sakit at langaw
- Observe kung may matamlay, ayaw kumain, o nagtatae
- Weigh monthly para ma-track kung lumalaki ba ng 0.6-0.8kg/day
*6. Marketing*
- Target market weight: 80-100kg sa loob ng 150-180 days
- FCR goal: 3kg feeds = 1kg weight gain. Pag mataas gastos mo
- Benta pag maganda presyo. Check mo presyo sa viajero o sa palengke
*Important tips*:
- Wag biglang palit ng feeds. Gradual for 3-5 days
- Iwasan ang stress: ingay, init, siksikan
- Record mo lahat: gastos, timbang, gamot na binigay
