Piglets were fed with hog starter mash during the first month cif rearing. Feeds was Shifted to hog grower mash until they weighed 60 kilograms. Finisher mash was provided during the last month of rearing. Feeding was done twice daily. Clean water was made available at all times. Legumes like ipil-ipil and napier grass were supplemented from growing period up to fattening stage. Finally, the hogs reached a total weight of 222 kilograms and had an average weight of 74 kilograms. They consumed 719.5 kilograms feeds and had an average feed efficiency of 3.9 kilograms. The three fattened hogs were marketed on dress weight basis. The project incurred a total of P7,741.31 for expenses, a gross of P8400.00 and realized a net income of P658.59
