The Swine Project is a great opportunity for anyone who plans to raise pigs on their farm. Our main goal is to teach you how to provide consumers with lean, nutritious and residue free pork.
In this project, you’ll learn:
- Tips on breeding, health and nutrition
- How to house, manage and transport your swine
- Marketing tactics for various pork products
- How to produce the best product and how to market/sell it
