Abstract
One of the topics that is currently undergoing a great deal of discussion in agriculture is changes that are taking place in hog production methods. Heading the list of ideas that might help hog farmers to maintain or increase their farm profits are multiple farrowing, raising in confinement on concrete, and balanced rations. These ideas aren't completely new, but have been modified over a period of years.
