Pigs are very good in d sense that they eat all organic remains and waste.Its very much in use in Egypt for refuse disposal and management. Once they have eaten most of d organic wastes, it becomes easier to manage the remaining inorganic wastes like leather and plastics or metals well

if you are talking of what they eat making them unclean, do you know all animals eat dirt depending on how they are left to roam about? If you poop in the open and magots begin to infest the poop, if a chicken passes by, it will relish that poop with the maggots so does that make all chickens unclean? Even the fish you eat, when people die in rivers and don't immediately get found, what do you think eats parts of those people? Fish... When people poop in rivers, before the poop even touches the water, a lot of fish will already finish it in the air before it even touches the water. Cray fish nkor? The day you are unfortunate to see a dead body floating on water, take a closer look... 80 percent if the time, you'll see them gathered by crayfish. I know you eat all these things bought from the market but does that make them unclean? Especially the ones grown in farms with controlled clean feeding. I believe you are educated sir..... Pigs are not unclean.... Only pigs found eating from gutters and waste bins are physically unclean not every specie. Its just like saying because some human beings eat human flesh that means all human beings are cannibals.. you are wrong and you are missing.

it's practically blood money... Very lucrative but of course like every other business, you'll need to know what you re doing. Feeding them can be expensive if you do not know what you are doing and very cheap if you do know what you are doing. Some farmers grow cassava in the farms which when grown are turned to feed which is a very effective way to reduce cost. I have a friend who owns a piggery and he uses chicken feed growers to feed his pig. One small plastic bowl of that feed twice daily and that is it. If you see his pigs, very massive and all muscle less fat
Of course he adds a few supplements and a few other things to the chicken feed to bulk up. Even blood and bones from already killed pigs are used to make their feed(blood meal and bone meal). Like I said.. if you know what you are doing, you can spend very little of feed while selling at profit. They mature in just 6 months, give birth 2ice a year to about 10 to 15 piglets which can be sold in 6 months time for about 50-60k each. Do the maths and subtract feeding from the total sum. That's a whole lot of money. If you are lucky, find a butcher that sells pork or a cold room, most of them buy your entire stock once they have reached maturity.

Whether you're bringing up a herd or just a couple of hogs, follow these five techniques to keep your pigs happy on the farm.

1. Feed them right:

Not every bag of pig feed is perfect for your swine. N.C. State University Professor and Swine Nutritionist Eric van Heugten says that different life stages require different nutrients. "The greatest bang for your buck would be to go to at least two diets: One for young pigs and lactating sows, and one for older pigs and gestating sows."

2. Choose the best supplements:

While you can pork up your porker by providing it with ample food, nutritious supplements are key to overall health and building muscle bulk. van Heugten points out the power of selecting the amino acid lysine as a diet supplement. "Farmers should carefully evaluate the diets to make sure they meet the amino acid requirements of the pig," he says. "Lysine is the amino acid that needs to be supplemented first, because it is usually limiting growth of the pig." Read a more detailed study from Gary L. Cromwell, a professor in swine nutrition at the University of Kentucky here (Amino Acid Supplements For Pigs).

3. A healthy pig is a happy pig:

Janet Archer, education and outreach specialist for the N.C. Pork Council, knows the benefits of having happy, healthy pigs. "We assess animal well-being by how well animals produce." Archer notes a few basic husbandry skills can make for a happy home: clean water, an adequate, well-balanced diet and adequate ventilation. She also points out one very important task to maintaining hogs' long-term well-being: record keeping. "Farmers must have a record-keeping system to establish a baseline for their production numbers, so they can track continuous improvement." Alabama A&M and Auburn University have put out some nice Swine Production Records, which can be helpful when trying to organize your records.

4. Understand your pigs:

Understanding a pig's "point of balance" can give farmers and pigs peace of mind, Archer explains. "The point of balance is around the animal's shoulder: If we touch the animal behind her shoulder, she will move forward, and if we touch her in front of her shoulder, she will back up. These two tools help us to keep animals moving in the direction in which we want them to move." In addition, mechanisms like pig rings can help keep your livestock under control.

5. Minimize stress on your livestock:

Transportation can be stressful for animals and humans, but it is crucial to minimize that stress in order to maximize your pig farming profit, and everyone's well-being. "Minimizing stress starts long before we move the animals," says Archer. "It's important to walk through the pens and handle the pigs to get them used to positive human interaction." Of course, when it comes to the animal getting used to anything, the earlier the better.
