WHY START PIG FARMING?
Pig farming only needs a small investment in buildings and equipment. Pig farming also offers quick returns because the marketable weight of fatteners (piglets you’re raising for the freezer) can be reached within six to eight months.
Pigs have the highest #feed conversion efficiency. This means pigs produce more live weight from a given weight of feed than any other class of meat-producing animal, with the exception of broiler chickens. wide variety of feeds, such as:
Grains
Premixes
Straight meals.....
* Forages
* Damaged feeds
All of which pigs convert into valuable nutritious meat. Top tip: Feeding your pig's damaged grains, garbage and other unbalanced rations can result in lower feed efficiency.
The pig is prolific and has a shorter generational interval. As an example, a sow can be bred from the age of eight to nine months and can farrow (give birth to a litter of piglets) twice or thrice in a year.
9 to 15 piglets can be produced in each farrowing.
Pigs are usually known for their meat production: Their dressing percentage which is the per cent of the live animal that ends up as carcass can range from 65-80% whereas other livestock usually doesn’t exceed 65%.
Did you know that pork is the most nutritious when it has high fat and low water content? It has a better energy value than any other meat. It is also rich in vitamins such as thiamine, niacin, and riboflavin, and is the most consumed meat globally.
Pig manure is commonly used as fertilizer on agricultural farms and in fish ponds. Also, pig fat, which is stored rapidly by pigs, has an increasing demand from the poultry feed, soap, paint, and other chemical industries.

COWS DON’T GIVE MILK
#Threads

A father used to say to his children when they were young: "When you all reach the age of 12, I will tell you the secret of life." One day, when the oldest turned 12, he anxiously asked his father what the secret of life was.
The father replied that he was going to tell him, but that he should not reveal it to his brothers.—The secret of life is this: the cow does not give milk. "What are you saying?" asked the boy incredulously. —As you hear it, son: the cow does not give milk; you have to milk it.
You have to get up at 4 in the morning, go to the field, walk through the corral full of manure, tie the tail, hobble the legs of the cow, sit on the stool, place the bucket and do the work yourself.

Broiler farming thread...
Firstly, you must construct a good house for your chickens. You need to know the size of the house you will need and how many chickens it can carry. The house should be secured so that no rats or birds can enter it.
Know the ratio of feeders and drinkers for your chickens. One feeder can feed 10 to 15 chickens, and 1 drinker can accommodate up to 20 chickens.

Baby goats (kids) are standing and taking their first steps within minutes of being born.
2/9
Each kid has a unique call, and along with its scent, that is how its mother recognizes it from birth – not by sight.
Contrary to the dominant stereotype about goats being willing to eat anything, they are actually very picky eaters.
