Hello I am also keeping my pigs in organic and free range they got better meat and good quality and much happier great content more power to your chanel keep up your good work
While large scale hog production has moved indoors to help production efficiency and profitability they are NOT in cages... they ARE in group pens with outher pigs and still have plentiful access to quality food and water and still able to socialze with other pigs and still have enough room for each pig to be comfortable. The public needs to take time to educate themselves as to how farmers are producing the food they consume before they make brash, uneducated statements.
@@thompsonherefordfarm4070 : Then maybe more so called "farmers" should make their day to day operations fully viewable? But of course, big money driven largely by factory style farms tries to go in the other direction. To the point where they want people imprisoned if they expose abuses.
@@mattrogers6649 First of all... producers large or small KNOW that an abused or neglected animal is neither right or marketable, any producer who enters into a contract to raise pigs in hog finishing units have to go through Pork Quality Assurance training to even be able to care for the pigs and also subject to monthly inspections of animals and facilities by the company whom they have the production contract with. There's is no information being withheld from the consumer... only their lack of interest in educating themselve on where their food comes from... albeit that trend is starting to change for the better as producers of all ag product have advocacy groups as well as producers themselves more than willing to and already provide information on the food they produce whether crops or livestock. More consumers need to take advantage of the information available to them to form more educated conclusions.
@@thompsonherefordfarm4070 : That was a nice corporate style reply. "Just ignore the films or accounts that demonstrate abuse from employees and supervisors that don't care about the animals." Also ignore the not insignificant amounts of money factory farm corporations pour into the coffers of politicians. They are just doing these things to inform people." What I saw as an ex-employee in the biz led to me quitting, and swearing off pork. Plus eventually other meats too. Does it happen at all places? I'm sure it doesn't. But trying to present abuse, mistreatment, or neglect as essentially never happening is disingenuous. So you can just save the ponies and rainbows version.
@@mattrogers6649 Maybe you would like to explain this "abuse" you speak of? Perhaps as an employee at the time you should have done your job and reported this abuse to prevent it from happening further??? As I said before producers of and ag products are more than willing to educate the consumer and end user on how their food is produced. To conclude my answer was not intended to be "CORPORATE" as you put it... to be clear I'm 1 of the smallest farmers in my area (300 acrees, 25 head cow/calf operation) but have worked for a neighbor with hog finishing barns which is how I have a leg to "stand" on in this discussion. The only real corporate is the owner of the pigs who process and market the end product... NOT the family farms that are solely responsible for the care of the pigs while in their barns... like I said... these producers are subject to inspections on a regular basis and NOBODY wants anything to happen that causes an inferior product. Not to say that there are not a few bad apples out there as far as employees are concerned... every work place has an employee whos is disgruntled to some degree. Just so we understand each other... I think raising pigs outside is the better way to go and companies like Lynch Livestock are now doing that with an efficient yet non-confinement style building that allows this. Remember my only beef in the comment section of this video is the uneducated person who said pigs were now being raised in cages... I'm sure as someone who claims to have worked in the industry know this isn't the case. :)
I guess Im randomly asking but does someone know of a trick to get back into an Instagram account?? I somehow forgot the password. I would appreciate any assistance you can give me.
@Merrick Yusuf I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm in the hacking process atm. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
It's a small, but like many small things, fundamentally important. Their pigs had tails! Now, I'm sure I didn't see every pig, but those I saw did, and from my childhood, I know what that means! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you so much for making this video I learned a lot and I'm looking forward to watching more of your videos hi also like the large black psych crossed the large blacks with ham shower and ended up with the super pay guy just love racing pigs I used to raise cows but pigs are more fun
Fantastic to see, only way to raise pigs...We raise the amazing Kunekune, only true grazing pigs on the planet..we do not feed the Kunekune ant scraps, that ruins the meat, only grass and wind fall fruit and nuts..best bacon ever..and they keep our place looking like a parkland..
I started up pig Farming and am doing well though no experience yet. My question is can I let them be free in eating in free paddock without any problem.
Usually this goes pretty good in free range, but out of curiosity pigs might try tail biting, and once they taste blood, they want more. It's sounds cruel, but it is true.
@@maxvandijk2001 Pigs seldom indulge in tail biting if they have open space on pasture. It is only when they are tightly confined and fighting for space or dominance do the tail bite. I have decades of experience raising hogs on pasture.
May you have great success. I just found your channel and was thrilled to see some one has taken what would have been for me the next step. I custom raised pork for people in the '90's and was using rapid pasture rotation for tilling, feeding, and stumping combined. I could not simply pasture raise as I am in incompetent fencer. Lol. For clearing out an area for crops I would time it to cycle through pumpkins and then rapeseed. Pumpkins shade out most weeds and rapeseed allows another pass through for the pigs or food for turkeys.. For stumping I would take a steel bar and poke a hole under the stump and drop a small handful of whole corn in the pigs did the rest. a large stump would require several handfuls but they will take it out given time.
no no there fine. when there small its good to have extra dry hay for sure. They just all curl up together in a pile to stay warm lol haveing dry shelter out of wind is good to
How can I get some of your piglets in Ghana, africa. You have really convinced me into this business. Please let me hear from you. If there is other way I can contact you.
Seguramente tendrán sus tratamientos contra gusanos y demás parásitos que viven en la tierra y harán mudanzas de los corrales cada cierto tiempo ⏳ para evitar infestaciones en sus animales. Los 🐽 cerdos se observan tranquilos y bien alimentados, aprender de esta técnica nunca está demás. 😃
Weird.... free range heritage... then along came the durocs..... and as for the grass... free range commercial grower mix. Really, I dont mind what you do but you seem to be 'label' oriented when it comes to your pork...
Feed type will influence the taste of the flesh more than the raising conditions. If your from North America, you will be used to the taste of pork raised on a corn soybean blend. When on pasture, some of both these grains will be substituted with grasses, roots, insects and small animals. Yes, pigs are omnivours just like humans. These additions to the diet can change the taste. I've know people who intentionally feed pigs a diet of only milk, or acorns, or apples to change the flavor of the meat.
Classic Humanity. Claims to value pigs as Sentient Beings...then kills them... It's probably better to avoid that kind of blatant hypocrisy even if your customers buy into it...
Look at it this way, every animal and every human eventually dies, and it's usually very unpleasant when it happens. If an animal can live happily in free range with plenty of socializing and free food, and then die instantly without pain, it has probably lived the best life possible to it.
Best of success to these people ! Oh New Zealand my home from home. Does me good to see this video and people taking care of the land.
As a new pig farmer with heritage breeds, this was most inspiring. Thank you so much. The Lord led me to this video, not You Tube🤣😁🐖
the pigs have a big place and they are all big pigs all beautiful.

That was a great idea to let the pig live freely they can run and play the animals behaviour are so natural unlike the pigs were raised in cages.

That is so much better than that small space I saw in the other farm!
Wonderful to see the pigs being treated 'as sentient beings' and not factory farmed.
The best way to raise pigs free to dig in the paddies and no stress!!!
It's a small, but like many small things, fundamentally important.

Buen trabajo.
Me gusta ver tus videos y he aprendido mucho de ello.

Pigs raised outdoors will grow slower, but the pork seems to be leaner, I think

Do u cut teeth and castrate when pigs r very young like we did on the farm?
I love that system for weighing them I wish I had that set up for when I did my pigs 2 years ago
You are liveing the life!!!
Hey guys would I be able to contact you? I have a large free range heritage pig farm in Australia
I started up pig Farming and am doing well though no experience yet.
My question is can I let them be free in eating in free paddock without any problem.
You still need to feed them.
Wow those pigs are huge. No predator bothers them I am sure.
I notice that these people doesn't cut the tail of these pigs! I wonder how the pigs treats each other in this free range?
Usually this goes pretty good in free range, but out of curiosity pigs might try tail biting, and once they taste blood, they want more. It's sounds cruel, but it is true.

Wow! Good Range Farm for feeding pet

Sir😊what are your heritage pigs breed and thirr crossbreed.
Do you NOT castrate your male hogs being raised for meat?
They basically taste the same compared to the castrated ones.
They are a lot happier with room to root, I know mine are.
Brother you have an amazing setup. I am raising blonde Mangalista
A vet that farms pigs?! Sick
Beautiful

How can I get some of your piglets in Ghana, africa.

I would like to taste the difference in the meat.... pasture compared to indoor pens.
I don't believe there is a huge difference in taste, the texture of free range/pasture bred pigs often better.

eating meat is part of nature
killing boars?
Hard to watch when the woman talks she sounds so pretentious, hitting all the PC buzzwords
These people are Savages ....... How do you move from pets to slaughter. I have a Jack Russell, who knows where i can take that.
Try to not eat them
