hog farming

Hog farming, also known as pig farming, involves raising pigs for meat (like pork), breeding, and sometimes sale of piglets. Farmers provide pigs with specialized shelters, nutritious feed, water, and healthcare to ensure healthy growth. The process includes breeding sows, caring for piglets, and managing their growth until they reach market weight. Farmers often follow strict hygiene and welfare standards to prevent disease and ensure quality products. Hog farming can be done on small family farms or large commercial operations, with the aim of producing safe, affordable pork for consumers.
