How many times a year can you breed a sow?

A sow can typically be bred two to three times a year, depending on her health and management practices. After giving birth, it is advisable to wait about 4 to 6 weeks before breeding again to allow for recovery. This can lead to an average of 2.2 litters per year. Proper timing and care are essential to ensure the health of both the sow and her piglets.
