AgricultureAre You A Smart Pig Farmer? Know These Now. by Lapeywilliams(op):
I've had so many opportunities to meet with several pig farmers both in person (one on one) and online, during our meetings we usually engage in so many discussions ranging from start up cost, making profit in the business ,the problem been faced by judicious farmers in the business,sales and marketing, and so on. However, there are few things that has got my attention during most of my dialogues with my colleagues in this venture, it seems the root of most of the problem is down to one thing, being an experienced pig farmer, who have garnered enough experience right from my childhood till now ( I was born and raised in this business), I realized most mistakes made by most start up pig farmers are something they could have easily avoided on the on-set if they had put some few things into practice by gathering some useful information which might have really helped.

I will like to highlight some of the problems most farmers who consulted me usually encounter, what perplex me most is that, these are problems one could easily have avoided. Piggery is a very nice and profitable agric venture one could rely on, I told you I was raised up through this means and by the grace of God will raise more up through this same mean.The bottom line is, as profitable and reliable the venture is, if one did not take care to get some vital information, one may likely end up despising the business due to frustrations brought about by lack of knowledge one fails to pick up when planning the start up.
Will like to put these problems in form of FAQS (i.e. Frequently Asked Questions ) for our easy understanding.

1. My pigs seem to be growing very slow or not growing at all, what could be the cause?:

This particular issue could get a farmer so frustrated to the extent of hating the business for life. Whenever I'm asked this question, I usually ask the person these two questions,what breed do you have in stock and what are you feeding them? The later seems to be the only question most could answer, many do not know the name of the particular breed they have in stock and those that know don't know much about the characteristics of these breeds, and the worst case is, most start up farmers are sold crossbreeds, concoction as many professional pig farmers would call it in the name of pure breds or exotic breeds, falling into wrong hands you would say? Not like that sometimes, most of us love cheap things and there is nothing wrong about that, I love cheap things too cos it would save me some bucks ,but sometimes in business, cheap things don't normally stand the test of time,the result are usually poor and brings more expenses one could have ultimately duck in the start. Sometimes what we think we got in good bargain may not actually be until we give it time.
Pure line and exotic breeds are usually expensive, but they will put your mind at rest and save you from headaches for a very long time with proper management.

2. When will I start making profit? I don't seem to understand the process:

The first time I was asked this question by a stranger I met online, I was so surprised someone would venture into a business without knowing how profitable the business is or how to carry out it profit making process, cos Piggery is not like some other businesses which is quite difficult to predict the time profit would start coming in which could sometimes be uncertain and indefinite.
As far as any business is concerned, the primary objective of venturing into it is to make profit, the rest are secondary. Piggery as I said earlier is a very profitable venture and that which one could even rely on, and it's quite easy to know when to start making profit, and its process, although, there are some factors which might delay profit making in the business for a beginner, but it not something of a very big note.

3. I'm spending too much on feeding,why is it so and is there a way out?

Like I will always tell anybody that come to me for consultation, feeding alone takes up to 60-70% of the total production of a pig and for you to be able to maximize and make more profit, you have to know how to spend less on feeding without altering the wellbeing of the pigs and also, timing of sales is very essential, always know when to sell and when not to sell, when a pig has reached a live weight of 100kg and above, there is no point still retaining it except it is a parent stock. Once a pig has reached this weight, feed intake tends to increase while the daily gain remains almost the same. Many farmers do not know this, they think the bigger the pig is, the more money it fetches without realizing the losses they might have incurred during the production of the stock from day one to that period.


4. I started with exotic breeds that grow well but now I can no longer point to one as an exotic breed again and those left now don't grow fast like the breeds I started with, why?

This question is very common among those who have the financial strenght to get a very good breeds in the start but lacked some certain knowledge on animal husbandry to manage their stock. I will always advise anybody who consults me to go with only one pure bred that you can easily manage if you know you are lacking knowledge on animal husbandry , many pig farmers when starting up buys like two different kind of pure bred which is very good, but without adequate management of the stock, eventually they run out of pure breds and later ended up having crossbreeds, not even hybrids left in their stock.

The aforementioned questions and many more are some of the challenges that easily send some farmers out of the business, many would say there is no money in piggery or keep asking the question that how do people make money in piggery?
I have only got a good news and a bad news and will like to give the bad news first which is, is not everybody that will make money in piggery as it is not meant for all and this is the good news, it is anybody that can make money in piggery in as much you know the way, that is just the pure fact. The world keeps evolving and new things shouldn't be done in old ways if better result is expected.

I don't want many farmers to make those mistakes again and that is why I have taken my time to list out some of the fluffs that easily frustrate the efforts of assiduous agropreneur.

Nigeria is a great nation blessed with many great minds but who lacks the resources and the right motivations to help in bringing their dreams to reality.

Everybody has a flame of greatness in him or her waiting for it to be ignited to bring light to the world, to give hope to the hopeless, to make a change where change strives to be.

We all in one way or the other have got one great idea in us that could bring light to the nation but just don't know how to go about it. This is the time we wake up as an individual, as a nigerian , as an african to come together to realise our dreams together. Don't let your idea die with you, meet with like minded people to brainstorm your idea with you and help you to bring it to fruition.

To be part of the Team Men of Values whatsapp group. Drop your whatsapp contact on this thread to be added to the group to meet with like minded people that would help you in fostering your dreams.

There is power in unity, he who wants to be unstoppable needs a backup.
AgriculturePiggery Made Easy by Lapeywilliams(op): 7:40am On Aug 15, 2016
Piggery is one of the oldest branch of animal husbandary ever known to man and is one of the most lucrative livestock farming that could be embarked on. However, despite the fact that piggery farming proves to be a highly profitable investment for agropreneurs, many that have ventured into it still couldn't get the best out of it due to some detrimental factors that inhibit the productivity in piggery farming.

Some of the factors include:
1. Little knowledge of the farmer about the types
of breeds he is stocking on his farm.

2. The farmer not knowing the rightful feed
composition for different age groups of the
pigs.

3. The farmer spending too much on expensive
feeds to improve and fattening his stock.

4. Poor management of the stock.

5. The farmer spending unecessary money on vet
doctors for simple health issues that could be
taken care of by the farmer thereby saving
him some money and many more....

Do you know you can feed your pigs with only foliages without compounded feeds and still get impressive results?

Do you know that there are some pig breeds that do not grow well in confinements no matter how much you feed them?


You can invest millions in piggery and still struggle to realise millions in terms of yield returns if you are not getting things right and you can invest thousands in piggery and you could make hundreds of thousands or millions by getting things right.
Piggery is a very profitable livestock farming but one should be warned as well that it does not offer quick money as one has to be very patient to get the best out of it. In piggery, one must have a long term goal in order not to get frustrated in the event of coming against a short term failure.

I have a vast knowledge on piggery and with many years of experience in the business, I have been able to decipher the very best ways of managing your stock to get the best out of them spending little on feeding, medics, housing and the rest and I would like to share this knowledge with an intending piggery farmer who wants to have the best knowledge on piggery and also existing piggery farmers who wants to add to their existing knowledge on piggery.

For consultation and enquiries, Contact Sholape @ +2349071734953, +2348020626259 or e-mail @ willibros2010@gmail.com.

NOTE: strictly for serious minded people and it is not all the information that I would be providing that would go for free, people appreciate what they pay for more than what they get for free.
