Treimers Build High Tech Hog Finishing House
Durant area hog raisers Leroy Treimer and son Denny unveiled a 774 by 42 foot finishing barn engineered by Bloom Builders of OsKaloosa. The 380 hog facility features limited feeding, automatic lines, slotted floors, an insulated concrete shell, a central waste system, six large fans, and a Wisconsin lab phosphorous check. They expect the $14,000 structure to eventually pay for itself through efficiency gains, with about 300 hogs staying at a safe 55 to 60 degrees in winter.
