Raising ecological pigs can earn 2000 yuan a year

"with the injection of funds, we will have more confidence to shake off poverty and become rich!" Recently, Wu Fuyun, a villager from Fengyan Village, East Township, Wuxuan County, and the adopter of "Ecological Pig" smiled happily after signing the agreement.

Wu Fuyun, a poor household in the village, chose pig farming in the way of getting rid of poverty. Although the government gives a subsidy of 700 yuan per pig, the cost of follow-up feeding is still a big problem. The local party committee and government put forward a plan for him to adopt an "ecological pig" by the public.

In accordance with the provisions of the contract, breeders guarantee pure ecological breeding and do not feed. Adopters pay a monthly feeding fee of 400 yuan, and half a year later they get an "ecological pig" that grows up on more than 80 kilograms of rice bran, corn and vegetables.

Now, Wu Fuyun takes care of 45 live pigs every day, 30 of which are recognized as raising pigs, and he takes care of them very carefully. He said: "when others pay for a reservation, they should pay attention to it. They should not feed them fast-growing feed against their conscience." After the adoption, he immediately contacted the animal husbandry station with an ear tag and planned to buy insurance for each pig, which was approved by the adopters. He calculated: "apart from the cost, he can earn 2000 yuan a month, and it will be no problem to get out of poverty by the end of the year."

Tang Xiangjing, the mayor of the town, had been worried about how to help the poor change from "blood transfusion" to "hematopoiesis", but now he has tried to find a way out. He said: "as soon as the plan came out, in just one day, three 'ecological pigs' who set up archives and set up credit cards were adopted by people from all walks of life."

Chen Xiande, director of the village committee of Huale Village, who adopted an "ecological pig" at the scene, said, "We should promote such a good model so that more people can not only eat 'ecological meat', but also help poor families to kill two birds with one stone."
