If I am correct I think live weight is about 470 or 480 A kilo so if your pig is 100 kg that's 48,000 naira

To all my Masters in the house, greetings. I have a quick question, what would be the space requirement for 30 weaners for fattening
In terms of room size and number Per room before they get to market size

FashPet:
The formulation will work for exotic breed. I'll later get back to you on the costing per kg because it's when farm is small that one takes costing of feeds per kg but it's a good thing to have the records intact and do proper calculation

Pigs are of different stages and they're fed with different formulations based on the stages. Also also one must consider the purposes. If you're raising for slaughter,your whole mind concentration would be on maximum weight that will fetch you enough money.
Many farmers are lazy to have different formulations for their pigs which is not too good. Let me give this instance. If you feed your farrowing pigs with too much protein and fat, they get so much weight and fat which can be dangerous to the piglets when they Farrow. Some fat ones sleep on the piglets and won't stand unless someone intervenes and some piglets die because of this while some get handicapped.
Therefore, you need watch the concentrate and the quantity of feed you give at each stage

Thanks for the response boss, looking forward to the costing sir. How would you adjust it for the grower stage and onward

For all the newbies stumbling on this thread like myself & wishing to venture into piggery, my advice is go start reading from page 1. Ask your questions when you get to the last page. A big thanks to all the Ogas that have not been stingy with their knowledge & experience over the years - Lagbaja, Dejia, Femu, Ops and more recently dynamix101, adeyinkapiggs, FashPet, tayo52 and sinaakinsanya, may God keep blessing you all.
Oga Lagbaja posted this feed formulation 3yrs ago & costed it at about N30 per kilo.

50% of cassava ( I buy them Fresh, break them into chips, dry and store them)
30% pkc
10% GNC( groundnut meal) or SBM (soyabean meal)
6% blood meal
2.5%. Oyster shell/bone meal/ lime stone
0.25% lysine
0.25% methionine
0.5% salt
0.25% premix
0.03% (3g per 1kg bakers Yeast) ( probiotic)
0.1% H-Plus from Animalcare

Now to my questions

1- would this formulation still give optimal growth today?

2- If costed today, how much would it be per kilo

3- Would this formulation be good for exotic weaners ?

4- Can this formulation serve through all the stages till they are ready to be served ?

There is still a million questions to go but I'll look forward to your honest response or if there is a better more cost effective formulation for optimal growth pls point me in the right direction

Good day to all you super farmers. I have been unable to choose the most profitable of fish farming & piggery.
Could you guys please advice me on:
1- The level of experience required to do well in either farming
2- Approximate start up capital
3- profitability
4- Requirment to start either type of farming.

I know I have asked a lot, I would also appreciate if there are sites where I can brush up my knowledge. Thanks
