All well known breeds e.g. lw, LR are in Nigeria. Growth is stunted in Nigeria because we can't feed and manage pigs well. In the west, pigs are over 100 kg in 6 months. The Nigerian environment is very tough to operate in. People can't feed well let alone animals. A terrible cycle. If animals are not well fed, people can't be well fed because animals is a key source of protein. |

Ifeconwaba:it take 6 to 7month from birth to gain average of 60 to 100kg but it all about breed feed and management just try and get trained anything u don't understand then come here n post it |
Re: Pig Farmers Lets Meet Here by tayo52: 4:40am On Dec 10, 2016 |
omonnakoda:we have so many hybrids n crossbreed,the most common ones are largewhite,we have landrace duroc n hermshire and we have this our native breeds as well,or crossbreed as well we also have gene converters n PIC they are the most improved breeds in naija,we have big companies that do import exotic breeds from different countries to naija,like Obj farm Casia farm and the rest, why we don't get much high FCR is becos we don't give them the right feeds n we like cutting corners alot,how many farmers can afford to feed his or her pigs soya and maize? Most farm always want to make atleast 25% or more on each pigs,unlike the white they settle down for 15% profit on each pigs,cos in pig farming feed n maintainance gup upto 85% of your total profits,reason y farmers don't farm this improve breeds are lack of awareness and it expensive,but at the long runz it save time and money,cos they have good FCR(feed convert ratio Is high)it easy but you ask yourself reason y you want to import with the high exchange rate,will I able to make my money back,do I want to venture into AI,is there farms that sells the kind of breeds I want to import to naija already,can I get other breeds that have same quality or characteristics of the breed I want to import in naija at cheaper price here in naija,do I want to be a breeder selling premium weaners,or a breeder selling fattening weaners,this are the questions u ask yourself 1 Like |

Good morning to you all. I just discovered this thread. great job you are doing here. I am new in piggery and l got few ones some weeks ago. I just discovered that the navel of one of my piglets protruded out though the pig not showing any sign of weakness or sickness. Also feeding well and growing but I'm just disturbed by that protrusion. I was told nothing is wrong with it and that I should just use spirit to clean it that it will go back to normal. please what should I do ? i want you to also add me on the whatsapp group. My number is 08135980333. Thanks |
