And pigweed? There was plenty on the mountains, and pigs could eat it, so it was definitely best to feed them with pigweed.
As for nutrition and scientific pig breeding?
Rural folks had no one to guide them, so they didn't think too much about it, feeling content as long as the pigs were well-fed and watered.
But the Lin Family was different.
Even the water prepared for the piglets was warm.
The pigsty was dry and well-lit.
It looked different from the other households' roughly built sheds.
Lin Tang symbolically gathered some pigweed, then went home.
She planned to make some nutritious feed according to the knowledge in the books.
The feed was made of wheat straw, husks, corn roots, wheat bran, etc., mixed in a certain ratio.
It was said to be very suitable for piglets a few months old.
Lin Tang, worried that her family would be reluctant about the ingredients used in the feed, made just three days' worth to start with.
After making it, she took out a portion.
