Pig Production

Original edition reissued in 2023 with new cover. This is a print on demand title and is not held in stock. The delivery leadtimes will be longer. Full of practical advice from one of the most experienced of the world's pig production consultants, this unusual and innovative book discusses in depth as many as 50 subjects which - for understandable reasons - may not have been adequately covered by the 35 pig textbooks in the author's reference library. Five sections deal with pig business management; minimizing disease; new developments in current and future pig production; ideas which maximise profit; and 14 subjects written specifically for the stockperson/pig technician. Aimed at owners, managers and stockpeople as well as students, veterinarians and commercial advisors, it is written in an easy, nononsense style with a strong emphasis on pig econometrics (them measurement of cost-effectiveness) of which the author is a pioneer. Financial figures are expressed in euros, US dollars and sterling.
