Mrs.Madiseema Masheane a member of Exclusive Piggery Network Lesotho a registered association of pig farmers initiated to help Basotho farmers make profit out raising pigs says the network is gravid with income generating opportunities for Basotho
This she highlighted yesterday (in a dialogue with harvest fm) where she pointed that pork production is not the only opportunity within piggery indicating that aspring Basotho who do not have space to raise more than 10 pigs which is a specified capacity that allows one to be a member of the network ,could produce piglets or pig feed,erect slaughter houses and butcheries
On the other hand the treasurer of the network Mr.Lehlohonolo Khomo articulated that the network was established last year October to counteract the underpricing of pork by the butchers who bought the meat from the farmers,he reiterated that raising pigs then was just a service of goodwill since it yielded no profit for them, saying that with this network farmers will definitely prosper
The association will be celebrating its launch in April where a national executive committee will be elected
