Backyard Piggery Systems for Smallholder Farmers

Backyard piggery is a low-cost, small-scale pig production system practiced by rural and peri-urban households. It allows farmers to raise pigs behind their homes using simple housing, local feed resources, and affordable management tools. This system is ideal for smallholder farmers who want to generate income, supply family protein needs, or build livestock assets with minimal investment.
This course teaches how to set up, manage, feed, breed, and maintain healthy pigs in a backyard setting using locally available resources.
