Abstract: The Farm Practice was conducted from October,1981 to March,1982 to find out the present practices on feeding and marketing of hogs among leading hog raisers in Indang; to identify problems encountered by hog raisers; and to give possible solutions to their problems. Information about hog raising was personally obtained from the hog raisers interviewed through actual observations of existing feeding and marketing practices. The most popular breeds of swine raised were Landrace and Large White or Yorkshire. Most common commercial feeds used were the massive feeds. Other feeds used were Bemeg and Vitarich. Hog raisers used some forages like napier grass ipil.ipil, camote tops, and ulasiman as green feeds. The farmers employed the retail and wholesale or combination of wholesale and retail system of marketing. They were paid on a cash basis. Strict sanitation and hygiene were practiced by the farmer-cooperator and the students to prevent diseases and parasites. Medication was sufficiently supported by the college veterinarian. The old practice of the farmer-cooperator in handling fattening/finishing hogs, misunderstanding and loss of faith and confidence in the student by the farmer-cooperator were the problems encountered.
