Tonnes of cheap Milk Feed for Sale

img_20170216_132425  img_20170216_132416

Hello friends, over the years powdered milk has always been a delightful growth booster for my pigs.

This year as usual am happy to share with everyone this amazing nutritious pig feed.

I still have some tonnes available but its running out fast so make your orders quick.

BENEFITS

  • faster growth rate than corn and soya rations. Milk is completely digestible and within 30 days a 30 kg grower consuming milk feed will attain 60 kg.

  • simplifies feed regimen for pigs. You don’t need to compound any complex formulations as milk is a complete meal already.

    You can feed 50% milk and 50% fermented cassava peels and have excellent results.

  • Boosts Boar(Male) semen quality thereby increasing Sow(female) litter.

  • improves Sow ovulation.

  • reduces meat fat.

  • excellent as lactation and creep feed.

  • appetite booster with sweet taste.

  • develops and corrects musculoskeletal deficiencies in pigs.

  • no need for premix.

  • no need for Lysine.

  • contains antioxidants.

  • – Milk fed pork is rich, sweet, and tender.

How to Use

  • for Weaners 50-80% inclusion ratio is recommended.

  • for Growers between 30-60 kg I recommend 30-50 % inclusion.

  • for Finishers 70kg+…… it’s useful as an appetite booster enabling them consume and digest more quantities of fibre such as Shangi, Brewery waste, Sesame, Cassava peels or PKC…so u can use at 10-20% inclusion ratio

Controlled Breeding Of Pigs In Nigeria For more Profits

Most Pig farmers in Nigeria breed without control and usually get caught up in a financial mess.

In most cases the farmer has insufficient rooms or feed for the pigs he has produced uncontrolled, hence he is forced to sell them at a loss.

Controlled breeding is a kind of family planning that ensures a farmer has complete control over the herd reproduction. It allows the farmer to decide the specific days to breed, farrow and sell.

Monitoring Growth of Pigs Using A Digital Pig Scale

Its a new year and I would like to start on a progressive note.

Getting your pigs to grow rapidly means giving them good feed, which might be very costly.

If you’re are concerned about cost of feeding and time to market, you should be more concerned about the growth rate of your animals.

The only way for you to derive maximum value for every gram of feed is to monitor the daily or weekly weight gain of your pigs using a stress free and accurate device.

The best tool to achieve this performance indicator is a Digital Pig Weight Equipment.

Reducing Losses On the Pig Farm Using Toxin binder

Today I will share an old but powerful idea for reducing losses and increasing profits on the Pig farm.

Many Pig farms have suffered the occasional/sporadic deaths of grown pigs due to presence of harmful toxins in their feed.

Inclusion of commercial toxin binders in pig feed formulations helps to mitigate this great economic loss but also at a significant financial and processing cost to feeding, hence some might shy away from its usage. So what alternative exists for the cost efficient farmer?

Advantages and Disadvantages of Farrowing Crates For Pigs

A key driver for profitability on a piggery farm is the ability to produce, wean and fatten a great number of piglets annually. This goal is however limited or threatened on most pig farms in Nigeria as a result of production challenges arising from piglet mortality.

Piglet mortality occurs due to a number of different factors that centre around the absence of a farrowing crate in the production unit. Read more…
