General China raising pigs in High-rise buildings

That's insane.
For those that don't know. Pig shit is basically an alien compound. Not only does it stink particularly bad, I mean really bad, when it dries it becomes something akin to concrete. It cannot be washed way. Not fully. If it didn't smell so uniquely bad you could build incredibly strong homes and structures out of it.

Yeah not sure. My dad used to have a half dozen at a time, maybe less, and they stunk like a bastard. Its hard to explain, its not like cow shit, which if you are from or near rural areas is almost a comforting type of smell even though its not a good smell. Pig shit tightens the nostrils of everyone. Its just such a distinct smell.
You're talking about India.At least it's less Chinese citizens shitting on the street.
As a teenager I used to live in a semi rural area, pig farm several miles down the road. When the wind blew from the east (prevailing wind was from the south west thankfully) , it bloody stunk.
British pigs are fed swill, which comprises a load of food waste products. One of my first jobs was in a toffee factory, and the waste toffee went to pig swill. Who knows what shite ends up in there.
People always thought I fed my pigs scraps from the restaurant, never did. Way I looked at it, pigs are so close to humans on the evolutionary scale that I didn't want to risk infecting my pigs with something that a guest may have and transfer it to them through their table scraps, I didn't want to risk it since they were going into our freezers.
That's weird.
Yes. This is true.
Sure, it hardens when it dries but not like concrete. It's still shit. It crumbles into dust.
It absolutely can. It's not even difficult.
Lol, do what now?
You could probably mix it up with straw and clay like any other kind of "animal based" brick but it's still shit from an animal. It'll disappear when it gets rained on.
What I'm curious about is how they deal with dead animals and the literal fuck ton of shit all of those hogs are going to produce.
They would have to have some kind of pit system. While it wouldn't surprise me that they'd have some giant open pit behind the building, removing the waste from ~2400 hogs can get to be a problem in a hurry if you don't have a system already in place. I imagine that they could feed the dead animals into some kind of incinerator but, even then, you'd still have to have some way of getting the animals to it and then feeding them into it.
It absolutely can be comforting. I don't smell the shit any more.
Some of the best nights of my life have been spent with a sow's head in my lap like a dog.
You would probably be okay. All of the really nasty stuff would either die on the food or the animals would filter it out for you. I would be much more worried about some kind of herd killer being on the food/your clothes/the air you're exhaling than them eating something bad.
Diet will affect their poo, sure, just like it would you. Think of what happens if you eat hot wings etc.
I've never noticed much of a difference, though I can really only smell it if I go "looking" for it or it's a completely different smell (like scour, etc).
Not my experience with it at all
Huh strange.
I would've thought I'd experienced most things in my 20 years as a hog farmer across numerous different farms and hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of hogs.
I tell you what. You box up some of your concrete hog shit and send it to me. I'm not joking and I'm completely serious.
He's going to send you a box with one of his own turds in it.
And I'm going to laugh.
I would too, truth to tell.
The pun that I'm making is that he's talking out of his ass about it.
(Yes, I hate myself too sometimes.)
Ok, so concrete is a bit hyperbolic. Point Im making is it dried into something that 100% couldnt be just washed off. I dont know what to tell you. My dad had pigs, I helped him with pigs and after ruining pants and shoes when I would help him because that shit was stuck to it and never really came off, I likened it to working with concrete. Settle down Cletus. My dad is dead and there are no pigs in my life any longer so that box of shit will just have to be hopes and dreams.
