Pig Farming

PIG FARMING


Pigs grow fast and are a prolific breeder, giving birth to 6 to 12 piglets at a time. A Pig is capable of producing two litters per year under optimal management conditions. Pigs convert inedible feeds, forages, certain grain byproducts obtained from mills, meat by-products, damaged feeds, and garbage into nutritious meat.

The carcass return is quite high i.e. 60-80 percent of live body weight. With a small investment on building and equipment, proper feeding and sound disease control programme, the farmer can profitably utilize his time and labor in the subsidiary occupation of Pig Farming. The faeces of pigs are used as a manure to maintain soil fertility. Our Pigs are reared to be healthy & free from diseases and thus highly demanded in the industry.
