In this foundational session, from the Pastured Pigs course, regenerative farmer Joel Salatin explains the powerful reasons for raising pigs on pasture differentiating this production protocol from conventional concentrated animal feeding operations. You'll learn why pastured pigs don't save on feed or labor, but instead offer significant advantages:
Improved Ecology: The process improves soil and vegetation health, moving land to a high state of fertility.
Better Pork: Produces pork with a more dense, balanced nutrition and a more succulent texture due to exercise.
Easy Entry: Reduces capital investment, offering a wonderful "on-ramp" for young people to enter farming.
Decentralized Health: Decentralizes manure, which reduces pathogens and sickness problems when animals are moved routinely onto fresh ground.
Start raising healthy, happy pigs that provide the best nutrition and eating experience!
