by road frontage i mean my lands parallel to A90 so can put sign near road for advertising. but access is actually through village. literally 3 fences plus river to cross so quite secure but visible to motorists. (dont wana tempt fate tho!!)
i did all costings, read professional pig farmer book about how much kilos feed they should need, and did financial forecast etc but in reality my gilts ate much more food and theyre not fat. i know what price to sell at as weaners to cover costs, which is more than we bought weaners for in past!!
would love to keep weaners on til finishing tho. i had a good feed supplier but his prices have gone up 40% in 10 mths.
already got farm insurance but didnt think about extra for selling to public, so thanx
im lead to believe that i need to get sows in-pig asap (there almost 1) or it can make them barren (same with giant rabbits)
projected financial forecasts are based on 2 litters per year. so to take it slowly and have only 1 litter a year would def leave me outa pocket (as would feeding growers i cant sell)
advice welcome
