In reply to Ben Ameyaw. For production stocks, the best place to source them is Nungua Farms. You may also visit the Department of Agriculture, University of Ghana and speak to someone in the animals dept. Contact me on +447498774059

In reply to Augustine. Breeding stock could be sourced from Nungua Farms in Accra. Besides, the public Universities also keep some good breeds on their farms. However, most farmers obtain their breeding stock from local farmers. You may also speak to your local Agric or Veterinary Office. They can be of help. Please note: pigs reproduce very quickly. Don't stsrt with too many gilts. Again, don't buy the boar from the same farm you get the gilts. Inspect the number of teats that have fully developed. A minimum of 12 developed teats is ideal for a gilt selected for breeding. There are other requirements. Read more about gilt selection for breeding.
