In this section you will find 6 essays for people who haven’t kept pigs before.

So, please, use the section as you want. Read the articles, print them off and hopefully you will find all the answers you need. If not then you need to go a stage further. Check out a book or two and we can help there too so go to our online Store and purchase one of the recommended books on pig husbandry to be found there. Alternatively, some of our members run pig-keeping courses and you can find details here. If neither of those suit, you can always sign up to our Forum and post your question(s) there!
