Good, efficient housing makes management easier and helps the farmer to successfully rear 85 % or more of all the live born piglets to market weight in the shortest possible time. Pigs at different stages of growth need different environments (temperatures). If they are to produce and grow to their maximum potential piglets need special protection against very low temperatures. Growing and reproducing pigs must be protected against high temperatures. The houses must therefore be built in such a way that the pigs are protected against extreme temperatures and other bad weather conditions such as cold winds and continuous rain.

Floor
The snout of a pig is said to be harder than a crowbar. It can dig up even the hardest surfaces and create pot holes. Therefore, the floor of the piggery should be hard, unbreakable and rough. Materials such as reinforced concrete, stone slabs or hard cement tiles fixed with cement are suitable materials for constructing the floor of the piggery. A concrete floor laid on a hard and thick foundation with rough surface is the best. The floor should have proper slope from all sides towards the drainage
Feeders And Waterers
Pigs’ saliva is very corrosive and the feeders and waterers get easily pitted and holed. Under such situation hygienic feeding is impossible. To avoid this problem care should be taken while constructing the feeders and waterers. Reinforced concrete with a mixture of 1: 1.5: 3 cement, sand and stone chips respectively are the best material for a permanent feeders. This is topped with a thick coating of cement which is given a smooth and fine finish. There should be a separate drainage facility from each feeder and waterer to the outside. The corners of the feeders and waterers should be round and smooth. Stone, wood, brick and cement are other types of materials that can be used for the construction of feeders and waterers
Wall
The walls of a permanent piggery may be made of brick or stone with cement and should be of nine inch thickness. The walls should be plastered and coated with fine cement up to a height of 4 -5 ft. The corners and the place where the walls join the floor should be made smooth and round. The walls should be 4-5 ft high from the floor. The rest of the wall up to the roof can be open
Roof
The roof which can be conical or flat should be sufficiently high (about l0-12ft) to have enough air circulation. It can be supported by pillars raised on walls with a minimum height of 8 -10ft from the floor. The roof should be all weather proof and material should not make the housing too hot or too cold inside. In hot/warmer areas the roof should be raised high to provide enough ventilation in the pig house
Doors
The doors should be strong and durable. Any material may be used for the door but the best material is iron. Metal sheets fixed on an iron frame are excellent. The door should be fixed close to the floor so that pigs do not lift it up by putting the snout under it. The width of the door should be at least 3 -4 ft
Wallowing Tank
In hot areas it is desirable to provide a wallowing tank in each room or on the open space of combination system. On an average, a tank of 8 x 6 x 1 ft is sufficient. The size may be increased depending on the number of pigs. The gradient should gradually decrease by one 2ft deep on one side of the tank to four inches on the other side. An underground drainage should be provided

Feeding Passage
The feeders can be constructed in a row on one side of the feeding space of each room. The rooms of the piggery should be constructed in such a way that the feeders come in one line. A feeding passage of about 3- 4 ft is convenient for moving around. Openings made on the half wall towards each feeder make it convenient for feeding, and these should be considered during construction. Alternatively a wire or iron frame provides a good convenient wall
Cleaning Passage
A cleaning passage on the opposite side of each room is very necessary. The door of each room opens to the cleaning passage. One should be able to enter each room, remove dung and other wastes, wash and sweep, clean and drain out into the main drainage from each room. The same passage can be used to transfer pigs from one room to another for breeding, littering, weaning, etc
Drainage
The drainages from each room and the main drainage should be constructed with sufficient slope (generally 1: 100). The surface of these drainages should be smooth so that cleaning becomes easy.
Sewage Tank
In a very big piggery, a large quantity of sewage may be drained. Under such situation, it is highly advisable to have a separate collection tank for sewage collection
Compost Pits
Two compost pits are required side by side. They can be built with brick or stone, no plastering is required on the sides or on the floor at the bottom. If bricks are used, a coating of thick cement solution is recommended to preserve the brick from weathering. The pits can be underground or built on the surface

Room Arrangement
The three sections, namely eating space, resting space and dunging area can be arranged in the following order

• The three sections are made together under the roof (indoor system).
• Resting place under roof and eating and dunging space in the open air (combination system in less rainfall areas).
• Resting place and eating place under the roof and dunging in the open air (combination system in more than average rainfall area)
• Partitions: (a) no partitions between sections, (b) partition between sections, (c) partition separates dunging space from the other two, and (d) partition separates resting space from the other two
Surroundings
The surroundings of the piggery should be maintained clean and free of bushes. There should be facilities for proper drainages from the surroundings of the piggery. Clean and dry surroundings reduce the occurrence of diseases and parasites

Buying in stock
Be aware that bought-in-stock can bring disease onto your farm, so bringing in pigs is always a disease risk.

Weaners
Weaners are normally exchanged at 8 to 10 weeks of age (18 to 20 kg liveweight). Avoid buying runts or "poor doers". A suitable checklist is:

• Avoid hairy pigs. These have often had a hard cold start to life, they will be old for their age and probably suffering from illness, e.g. Pneumonia.

• Avoid scouring pigs. Any visual signs of loose faeces, dirty backsides or red inflamed areas are a warning to potential purchasers.

• Avoid pigs that cough, they have worms.

• Look for pigs with a bright appearance, clean skin and show a keen interest in both food and life in general.

• Avoid pigs that limp Try to obtain pigs that have been weaned at least a few days prior to transfer. Settle pigs into their new home quickly, unless they have recently been treated, treat for internal and external parasites. Introduce your feed gradually and if possible provide plenty of dry straw or other bedding.

Breeding sows
The purchase of breeding stock from either a known colleague or recognised pig breeder is recommended. Unless there is a genuine clearing sale, buying from a sale yards is a risky business, as you may well buy someone else's cull.

Buying unmated gilts is the safest option. This gives the young gilt time to become accustomed to the particular set of conditions on your unit (including the disease organisms). If purchased at 90 to 100 kg, they will be ready for mating in about a month.

Boars
Remember your boar has a major influence on the progeny (1 boar to 20 sows). So it’s worth while to choose a superior quality boar. Also successful breeding depends on a sound, vigorous boar. No stiffness or lameness should be apparent.

Moving and transporting pigs
Pigs can be difficult to move across open spaces, some equipment and forward planning are vital. Some golden rules are:
• Don't lose your temper, take a calm approach
• Use feed as a lure
• Carry something large, flat and solid like a piece of plywood.
• Use this to block escape routes, the theory being they won't go through what they can't see through.
Using raceways between buildings and paddocks is much easier.

Can you prepare a layout plan for a farm of 400 hectare.

Pls can u post some pig feed formula for those that will like to mix their own feed?

How can you advice me on a cheapest way to build a piggery pen with little capital at hand .I have one Acre of land and 25 pigs comprises of different sizes from my former site and am on temporary location which is not conducive for the pigs.Good farmers of Nairaland i need your advise urgently.

Extensive systems
Outdoor systems are relatively cheap to establish and, if well managed, are considered very welfare-friendly. Performance of these systems can often be similar to conventional farrowing crates. However, outdoor systems require specific soil types and climatic areas. Also, when compared with indoor systems, a higher labour input using different husbandry skills is required.

Conclusion
The choice of farrowing system is based on:
• sow and piglet performance;
• welfare acceptability;
• environmental acceptability;
• ease of management;
• capital costs;
• financial returns / productivity.
There is currently no single alternative farrowing system that meets all the welfare aims and has commercially acceptable levels of performance. Sow and litter productivity can be as good or better in some alternatives when compared with the farrowing crate. However, these better alternatives generally require more space than the farrowing crate. In the future, there will be continued pressure for the pork industry to find economically viable alternatives to conventional farrowing crates.
