Pork is considered a delicacy by many in Ghana. When pork is used in light soup, it gives the soup a nice aroma and flavour. Pork can also be roasted and served as a snack alongside a bottle of beer or any other chilled drink. This is evident by the increasing number of pubs which have roasted pork as the main menu. At this point, it is safe to say that the demand for pork is on the upward trend in Ghana hence pig farming has become a very lucrative business. Before you start raising pigs, here are some of the important things you need to consider.

Sure, not necessarily everyone is starting a pig farm because they want to make a lot of money – some people are already pretty rich but they are only considering pig farming as a way to diversify their investment portfolio.
