Pigsty used for pigs in the evening.Cage size 3 mx 3 m is a good size. Pigsty should provide shade and protection from rain and strong winds. If a pig pen does not have walls, needed a strong fence instead. preferably from the cement floor with little inclination for easy cleaning. This floor can be a layer of grass that must be changed every week. Then, use the grass and pig manure as compost and mulch.
