A lot of people do not realize what a simple pig can do to the community in Jinja, Uganda. A pig or whole house full can provide families to overcome poverty and help develop the community. Most Americans get there pork from the super shops, where the meat is been prepared and nicely packaged for the customer. In Jinja it is done a little different. You are allow to chose the pig where it is taken out pack and slaughter and then cut up for the family that has purchase the pig. A normal size pig could feed a family of four for two to three weeks.
The poor country side can benefit from this pig production, by fighting rural household poverty by owning a piggery and helping the smallholder famers, most the women to help produce a product for the market. By owning a piggery this could lead producer and suppliers with pork product to East Africa.
