How it Works: Hog Raising Program

This is how our Hog Raising Works:

  1. We find a farmer-beneficiary with existing pig pen
  2. As much as possible, Lunti provides the piglets, feeds, and market logistics
  3. Farmer provides the labor, electricity, water, and pig pen; Lunti on financing, technical, and market support. Sharing is 50/50 on NET profit.

 

FEASIBILITY

Price of Piglet
P3,200 at 15-20 kilos
1st 10 kilos ~P1,700
Excess of 10 kg is P150/kg


Price of Feeds

Premium Starter Feeds

0.85kg/day x 14 days feeding x P40.20/kg = P478.38
Starter Feeds

1.5kg/day x 21 days feeding x P26/kg = P819
Grower Feeds

2.3kg/day x 35 days feeding x P24/kg = P1,932
Finisher Feeds

2.7kg/day x 30 days feeding x P20.60/kg = P1,668.60
Total Feed Cost / head = P4,897.98 or ~P5,000 including transport costs

 

TOTAL CAPITAL
Piglet + Cost of Feeds = P3,200 + P5,000 = P8,200

UPDATE
With the recent onset of African Swine Fewer, farm gate price of live hog plummeted to all time low of P70. We will sustain losses until price gets back to normal, but we appeal to our Venture Partners that we invoke the force majeure clause of the hog raising contract - wherein fulfilment of obligation shall be delayed for up to 1 cycle.
