Indigenious and Exotic Pig Breeds

For commercial pig farming upgraded/crossbred or exotic stock in good health should be selected.
While selecting a gilt or sow primary aim should be to secure a female that will produce large survivable litter and which can attain marketable weight at an age of six months or less.
Animals those are ready to be bred should be selected.
Cull the old animals after 10-12 farrowing.
Identify the newly purchased animal by giving suitable identification mark (ear notching or tattooing).
Always vaccinate the animals against diseases.
