However, the ability to plan, to implement the plan, to follow up the plan and to device solution to a particular problem as acquired in the farm practice can- not be surpassed by monetary benefits. workers/employees where one is comfortable for a particular job is recommended. The problems on the production aspect include the faulty design of the breeding pen, negligence on observation of the sows which are in heat/return heat and the incidence of death on piglets. These can be solved by proper designing of the different parts of the building and providing breeding crates. Also, assigning of worker who shall always observe the sows as well as proper recording of all activities should be done. The farm should also properly monitor its medication and vaccination program to avoid spread out of diseases.
