  • Profile

    A visit by a high profile government delegation in 2009 led to favourable
    consideration being given towards the funding of Chikaina Piggeries which resulted in the construction of three new pig houses and an office block. Amid government's intervention in a pig's whisper, Chikaina Piggeries has transformed into a fully- fledged commercial pig breeding enterprise.

    It prides itself with breeding boars and sows, growers and finishers under the strictest
    animal welfare conditions. Hence they able to sustain their market share and bring home the bacon. Veterinary support is on-call and continuous quality control mechanisms are being pursued on a regular basis. Chikaina Piggeries is set to establish itself as future stud-breeder and derive benefits from being a leader in producing quality genetic material.

    Chikaina Piggeries breeds white Sows, Duroc and Landrace boars under
    the best climate conditions in well-constructed pig houses that bear the very best design and engineering considerations. The piggery does not compromise on its feed source which is still being supplied by government and adheres to the practice of utilising units for breeding. Research and Extension Support; all new age pig farming techniques are discussed in consultations and implemented where necessary.

    Chikaina Piggeries PenWith Chikaina Piggeries having transitioned from basic infrastructure in
    the old pig houses to new ones, there is little doubt in the enterprise achieving its ultimate goal of boasting an abattoir – should the economics permit – owing to the fact that value-adding crystallises the hallmark of many an agricultural enterprise.

    Produce and Market: Supply of carcasses to Livestock and Wholesale meat
    markets and abattoirs. Infrastructure and Assets: Three newly constructed pig houses and an office block, 50kw tractor and slurry tanker.
    Government Spent: Illima-Letsema and CASP funds to the tune of R6 million
