Abstract: Today, with the rapid development of modern and large-scale pig industry, free-range pig farming is still an important part of the breeding industry. Different from large-scale pig farms, there are many shortcomings in feeding management, pig disease prevention and control and so on for small-scale farmers. In the long-term clinical diagnosis and production practice, it is found that sows raised by small-scale farmers often have some problems, such as non-estrus, repeated infertility and "false pregnancy", weak farrowing, stillbirth, and postpartum piglet death. This paper makes a comprehensive analysis on the performance and etiology of the above-mentioned free-range sows, and puts forward the corresponding prevention and control measures, in order to provide a theoretical basis for the feeding and management of rural free-range sows.
