hello friend, if it is suddenly for your own consumption it is profitable, but it is necessary to have encuenta the cost of the facilities the manpower and the worst in all the cost of the concentrate, since they are few animals it is high the value and they don't give discount, I recommend you that you don't enter in this business, I manage 40 females and I am that I throw the towel, the only form is that you manage waste

the conversion of the animal resides by 70 percent in its genetics, it is necessary to acquire animals of good quality, improved genetically in conversion to meat, the feeding should not necessarily be concentrated, we should use the sub-products that it produces our region in particular, and to be advised of a very good zoo-porcicultor

it is profitable, but it is as all the business there is low and high, the secret or it is that it is necessary to remain in the one in spite of all contingency. to be being modernized in this business, to attend conferences, auctions, to read to newspaper on the Pig Industryy to be the so much of the opportunities that you/they can help you to that your business is better. I have a very small farm and however for my it is something very good, I have meat for my family, my pigs give the l02 weight or 98 ks. to the l37 or l42 days. and that for my it is something very good. and the price to that I blindfold is to as this in the market at the moment to l5.90 in foot. previously l6.50. there is also another aspect and it stops my it is important you should like the Pig Industry and you should love her so that you are corresponded.

I would also like to begin in this business, and I would like to know what swinish race it would be the best for this business, the same as their feeding plan to obtain pigs of 102 Kg at one time of 4 months. I live in San Francisco, CA, but I want inciarme in this business in Mexico. What does it recommend me? If I like he/she can write, he/she would thank it to him a lot. Also, is it necessary to look for the buyers first, as restaurants, butcher shops and refrigerators?

Dear friend, is to give to the animal his grain as the sorghum, or the corn. Together with the soya and their microconcentrados that are bought in some company like reka, technical nutritional, etc. and they send him the correct formulations. He/she should also have a good handling program, cleaning and to give love to their animals that he/she leaves in the handling. To have good genetics and to go selecting their animals, those that give better reesultado in the advances mejoradores of more utility.

Mr. Navarrese Diego, the time of it puts on weight in Mexico it is of 6 months. The average to take them to the 100 kg. But you say that I fatten them in 4 months. Please rectify, I have said that the time in that some animals reach the weight of 104 kg. it is sometimes -y this is not in general - of four months 17 days. It is what I have taken out. Of there from now on some come out in 4meses 20 days, 4 months 27 days. etc. The race that is recommended as all they know it it is in female the York Landrace, and they are covered or they are mounted with a pig Duroc, or a hybrid Duroc-Hamp-Pietrain, or an exotic one as they call it in United States. You are in the American Union, and he/she has many breeders of pigs that can help him. Enter the nationalswine.com, and there you will find many breeders of foot of breeding to accessible prices.
