Swine production

Swine production is the process of raising pigs for meat, mainly pork. It involves selecting healthy breeding pigs, providing proper nutrition, and maintaining clean, safe living environments. Farmers manage breeding, monitor health, and ensure pigs grow at a steady rate. The pigs are usually raised until they reach a specific weight, then scheduled for slaughter. Throughout the process, attention is given to genetics, health care, and nutrition to produce quality pork efficiently. Swine production plays a vital role in the global food supply, combining husbandry, science, and management to meet consumer demands.
