Sweet potatoes fed to pigs

Sweet potato is sweet and palatable and nutritious. It is a good feed for pigs, but if it is fed improperly, the pigs are prone to reduce food, stop eating, drop lice or poison. Therefore, when feeding sweet potatoes, pay attention to the following points:

1. The amount of feed should be appropriate. How much suitable sweet potatoes to use for pigs is determined by the pig's weight, age, sex, etc. If the amount of feed is too large, other feeds will eat less and the nutrition of the pig will not be comprehensive, which will hinder growth and development. In general, piglets, sows and boars are fed less; large pigs and finishing pigs weighing more than 60 kilograms are fed as appropriate, but they should not exceed 8 kilograms per head per day.

2. The method should be appropriate. In order to make pigs have a good appetite, feeding should be done as little as possible and regularly quantified in order to help improve the digestive capacity of the gastrointestinal tract. If they are fed with green feed, they should first feed green fodder and then feed sweet potatoes; if they are fed with other concentrates, they should have a proper proportion. If cooked, feed it in time after cooking. At the same time, pay attention to the cleanliness of the utensils to prevent the rancidity of sweet potatoes from being stored for too long.

3. Diseased potatoes should be removed. Black-spotted diseased potato, even if boiled, steamed, roasted, etc. cannot destroy its toxicity, it can easily cause poisoning when the diseased potato or its residue is fed to pigs. Pig food poisoning potato poisoning often occurs 3 to 4 days after the onset of disease, such as increased body temperature, loss of appetite, constipation, fecal dry black, spherical, and often with mucus and blood. Therefore, we must remove the diseased potatoes.
