The software for Microsoft Windows was written in Visual Basic 6.0 programming language. The system was divided into two sections regarding main program and reference information. The scale of pig house was based on the hogs produced per year and sows on farm in the main program section. The pen reports at individual age and sex were derived from the incorporation with length of gestation, lactation, and weaning to conception, weaning weight, average litter size, survival rate of piglets, and daily weight gain and space allowance at different growing stages. The cost of pig housing could therefore be induced from the market price of building pen. The software for Internet used the Active Server Pages (ASP) programming to connect the Server to create a pig house report simultaneously and to offer an instant service on the Internet. The section of reference information provided some designed figures and pictures of the pig housing concerning roof, pen crate, and floor. The reference pictures of other equipments regarding drinkers, feeders, bulk bins were also included in the system. Key Words: Pig housing, Planning, Software.
