Pig Care Basics.
I’ll never forget one of my first barn walk-throughs with Dr. G. F. Kennedy. “People try to overcomplicate pig farming. It comes down to air, water, and feed and if you get those right, this really isn’t that hard,” he shared. While that may be oversimplifying it at times, his general wisdom was right, and pig production has always relied on these three fundamental pillars:
- Good AIR quality.
- – Access to fresh, clean WATER.
- – Balanced, nutritious FEED.
In this publication, we will dive deeper into these timeless principles, exploring how these elements continue to drive the efficiency and success of today’s pig—and on the advice of Doc Kennedy, try to not overcomplicate.
