STARTING WITH PIGS

By Andy Case

A straightforward and readable book for the small scale pig keeper, this is an excellent and practical introduction that is also up-to-date with the relevant regulations.

Concentrating on the older, more traditional breeds, it covers housing and free-range management, feeding, breeding and rearing, buying and selling.

Written by a well-known pig breeder and small farmer, it is ideal as an up-to-date and accessible book on pigs.
