Start With Fall Pigs For Profits And Quick Markets
Proper early feeding boosts speed to market and profits. A two week old piglets thrive on a cutting ration of 40 pounds ground barley or wheat 40 pounds ground corn 10 pounds tankage and 10 pounds linseed meal fed in a creep. Skim milk lowers costs and aids gains when available. The Trinity ration of 50 pounds tankage 25 pounds linseed meal and 25 pounds alfalfa meal works well in a self feeder with corn or coarsely ground wheat. An equal mix of ground wheat and barley is another cheap option. If using ear corn, feed two-fifths to one-half pound daily per pig up to 100 pounds, then raise to three-fifths to four-fifths pound for heavier hogs. Early market pigs in March or April bring a premium up to $1.50-$2.00 per head. Extra month’s labor and risk saved is another benefit of this approach.
