Features: "Pig Farming (For Animal Husbandry Majors)" is a unified textbook for compulsory courses in animal husbandry at agricultural and forestry colleges and universities across the country. The purpose of compiling this textbook is to highlight practicality, strengthen hands-on training, emphasize relevance, and focus on flexibility. It is neither a copy of the undergraduate "Pig Farming" textbook nor a condensed version of undergraduate materials. It aims to teach students true knowledge that stands the test of practice through the textbook and cultivate their ability to analyze and solve problems. The book primarily covers topics such as the pig farming industry, pig breeds and hybridization, pig breeding, nutritional needs and feed for pigs, feeding and management of breeding pigs, piglet production, and feeding and management of growing-finishing pigs.
