Ten Feeding Methods for Increasing Weight and Increasing Weight of Pigs

In the process of pig farming, there are several effective feeding strategies that can significantly improve growth rates, feed efficiency, and overall health. Here are some practical methods that have been proven to be beneficial:

1. **Calcium Formate Fertilizer** Adding 1.5 grams of calcium formate to the feed during the first few weeks after weaning can boost the growth rate of piglets by over 12%, enhance feed conversion by 4%, and reduce the occurrence of diseases among young pigs. 2. **Enhancing Sow Productivity** From day three post-weaning, adding 200 mg of vitamin E and 400 mg of carrots to the sow’s diet helps increase litter size by 21.9%. Reducing these additives by half when the sow is in heat and continuing until 21 days into pregnancy ensures strong sows and high survival rates for piglets. 3. **Baking Soda for Weight Gain** When added to feeds lacking lysine, baking soda compensates for the deficiency, aids in fiber digestion, and promotes faster weight gain and better meat production. 4. **Copper for Faster Growth** Incorporating trace amounts of copper during the fattening phase improves weight gain and protects against certain pathogens. Combining it with antibiotics can increase daily weight gain by 6.7% and improve feed utilization by 2–5%. 5. **Saccharin for Better Feed Intake** Feeding pigs a small amount of saccharin (0.05 g per kg of feed) enhances palatability, increases feed intake, and boosts daily weight gain by 7%. This also reduces feed costs by about 4.8% and expenses by 3.5% per 100 kg of weight gained. 6. **Yellow Pigment for Improved Growth** Adding yellow pigment to feed once pigs reach 35 kg can increase daily weight gain by 7% and improve feed conversion by 5%. Flavomycin is typically used at 20 mg/kg for piglets and 50–250 mg/kg for growing pigs. 7. **Citric Acid for Better Digestion** Including 30 g of citric acid per kg of feed improves feed taste, nutrient absorption, and conversion. It increases daily weight gain from 189 g to 216 g, especially effective for weaned pigs weighing between 5–10 kg. 8. **Fattening Through “Moving”** Changing the pens of fattening pigs once a month can stimulate appetite, increase gizzard size, and accelerate growth. However, this should be done carefully, ensuring that groups remain consistent and no mixing occurs to avoid stress or aggression. 9. **Oxygenated Soft Drinks for Weaners** Providing oxygenated soft drinks to weaned pigs every five days can help them gain 200–250 g per day. The drink is made by dissolving oxygen in water, and adding nutrients like fertilizers can further enhance results. 10. **Vitamin C for Boar Semen Quality** Adding 1–4 g of vitamin C daily to boar feed improves semen quality. For sows, giving 1 g of vitamin C one week before farrowing reduces umbilical cord bleeding and piglet mortality. These techniques not only support healthy and efficient pig growth but also contribute to better farm productivity and profitability. Implementing these strategies can make a significant difference in modern swine management.
