COSTA, MARVIN B. and BONIFACIO, KEVIN JOSEPH P. Backyard Hog Fattening in Bunal Lejos 119 Indang, Cavite: An Entrepreneurial Project. Bachelor in Agricultural Entrepreneurship major in Animal Production. Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite. May 2017. Adviser: Dr. Magdalena N. Alcantara Ph.D.
The entrepreneurial project in backyard hog fattening was conducted from February 3, 2017, to April 30, 2017 to gain additional practical knowledge in swine production, learn more skills in raising swine, assess the profitability of hog fattening, and gain profit in hog fattening.
The project had 8 fattening hogs accorded with the proper care and management for 82 days. At the end of the project, the hogs with an initial weight of 16.88 kg ended up weighing an average body weight of 86.56 kg or an average gain of 69.68 kg. The average daily gain was 850 grams. Each hog consumed 193.75 kg of feeds which resulted to a feed conversion ratio of 2.29.
The project incurred a total production cost of P70,915.00 with a gross income amounting to P90,055.00. With a break-even point of 68.88 kg., this gave the future entrepreneurs a net income of PI 9, 140.00 and a return on investment (ROI) of 26.99%.
