  1. Native pig business can be profitable.

    For a 25-kilo pig, a farmer can enjoy a P780 income per head. If a farmer decides to raise five heads in one cycle (five to six months), or a total of 10 heads per year, he will have an added income of P7,800 yearly.

    Based on the project’s data, native sows can produce an average of seven live piglets in a litter. A farmer with two sows producing seven weanlings each, two times in 14 months , can have an added income of about P22,484 in 14 months or about P33,700 per two years from piglets alone.

    2800 lang kita mo per MONTH????

  2. It looks like this project is not viable in a corporate style farming where labor and utilities are paid. In my case, one laborer is paid 4000 monthly including rice allowance or 96k in two years . Even if you charge only half for labor as the laborer is given other farm tasks, that's still 48k which is more than expected revenues in two years. I can probably get better market price due proximity to market but still not enticing. Pwede mag alaga for own lechon consumption.
