In the rural communities of Assam, Nagaland, Manipur, Arunachal Pradesh, and Mizoram, pig rearing has traditionally been a household practice. Families raise pigs in their backyards, feeding them kitchen leftovers and scraps. Despite its importance to their livelihoods, many farmers face significant problems in improving the health and productivity of their pigs. A lack of awareness about proper feeding methods, breeding techniques, and animal healthcare has led to a noticeable drop in pork quality and supply. As demand for pork continues to rise, many local farmers struggle to keep up, largely due to limited resources and knowledge.
