Abstract

This study investigates the application of PID algorithm-based temperature control systems in pig house environmental management and its impact on agricultural production efficiency. Through field experiments conducted at Dongshun Aquaculture Ecological Development Co., Ltd. in Nanping City, Fujian Province, we evaluated the system's effectiveness in energy efficiency, production performance, and animal health. Results show that the PID system achieved 18.5% energy savings, a 9% increase in daily weight gain, and a 7.1% improvement in feed conversion ratio. Additionally, meat quality scores improved by 8.3%, and disease incidence rates decreased by 21.9%. Economic analysis indicates that the system begins to generate a positive return on investment in the second year, with cumulative benefits reaching 192% within five years. These findings highlight the potential of PID temperature control systems in improving pork production efficiency and sustainability, offering a valuable solution for modern pig farming.
