GOVERNMENT SUBSIDY SCHEME ON PIG DEVELOPMENT

Central Sector Scheme on Pig Development

Pigs are reared by the poorest of the rural population and they provide meat, dung and few byproducts like bristles, etc. These animals have wide adaptability to suit different agro-climatic conditions. Piggery can play an important role in improving socio-economic status of this section, if existing constraints in their economic rearing are removed. Pig farming as a commercial venture is yet to be adopted in the country.  Those attracted by its potential face constraints like insufficient high quality stock, non-availability of balanced feed at economic prices and absence of organized markets.  There are hardly any licensed pig slaughterhouses and most of slaughter in rural / urban areas is done in clandestine manner.  The meat reaches consumers without passing through any organized market and if these constraints are removed, pig farming has the potential to yield significant economic and social gains
