By Margery Poitras | Development Coordinator

The Pig Farming project has assisted 223 pig farmers in 9 villages across three townships (181 in Pauk and 42 in Taunggyi).
In 2023, 47 new farmers joined the project.
According to the expense income calculation of pig farmers, the average profit per farmer is $ 428.
12 farmers(7 from Pauk and 5 from Taunggyi) are able to breed pigs on a large scale and earned $1,553 as an average profit per person within the seven months from January to July 2023.

The pig farm project has achieved significant success due to the organization's effective partnership and model, even amidst unstable conditions, travel and trading restrictions, and inflation. The community's strong leadership has enabled them to run and adapt the project independently, with only some remote coaching from the project staff. We call this success!
