II. Technical Description

A. Brief Description of the Project

Hogs ranked second as the Philippines’ top agricultural commodity with value of
production at 78.7 Billion in 2000 from 66.2 billion in 1997. It has a pig population of 11.2
million with annual growth rate of 3 % per annum. Of the total population, 77.4% are raised in
the backyards while the remaining 22.6% in commercial farms

In RAKIM ARC, raising hogs is one of backyard enterprise engaged by our Agrarian
Reform Beneficiaries to augment their household income. With the local demands of hogs in
the ARC ,and adjacent municipalities hog production has been identified by proponents as one
potential enterprise.

The proposed income generating project involves the establishment of backyard

piggery to be managed by members of Maguindanao Women’s Association. Basically swine
production has been identified by proponents as one potential enterprise, with the local
demands of swine in the area and helps augment their household income. This was based on
community consultations conducted in the barangay/ARC and subsequently from their ARC
development plan.
The project will be implemented through the convergence effort of different
stakeholders in the ARC and the subject Women’s Association. The Department of Agrarian
Reform, LGU through the Municipal Agriculture Office, MSU-Lanao del Norte Agriculture
College will have their commitment and assistance to ensure the smooth implementation of
the project and eventually achieve its goal. As such cost sharing for funding of the project is
being required.

B. Rationale/Importance

The women-partners solely depend on farming, with rice and corn as their major crop,
earning gross annual household income of 52,000.00 which is inadequate to meet basic needs.
This inadequacy of income is caused largely by low productivity, high cost of farm inputs and
fluctuating market prices of their main agricultural crops. At present some household are
raising semi hybrid pigs in their backyard for market to augment household income.

Swine production is considered a potential source of house based income with low cost
of production and assured market at any season. Low cost of production is attributed to locally
sourced feeds. It can be taken cared off easily by women anytime.
C. Objectives of the project

Generally the proposed project aims to improve and augment household incomes.
Specifically the project aims to :

1. Provide women with appropriate skills and knowledge in swine production;

2. Institutionalize swine production in the ARC;
3. Strengthen and mobilize women members
4. Enhance marketing activities of women
5. Establish a profitable agribusiness enterprise in the ARC and
6. Institutionalize proper management of different economic activities through
enforcement of PSPs

D. Project Coverage

The proposed project will be implemented in Barangay Maguindanao, RAKIM ARC,

Sultan Naga Dimaporo (SND), Lanao del Norte through Maguindanao Women’s
Association.

E. Features of the Project

E.1.Distinctive Features of the Project

The association through the women leaders will implement the project based on PSP
formulated and approved by the General assembly. This includes the screening criteria
on the selection of beneficiaries for replication, monitoring and marketing of the
product. This project adopts this roll over scheme principle. Proceeds of this project will
be awarded to the next line beneficiaries will in turn pay the association the
corresponding amount given to them after marketing of their produce. The association
will award again the proceeds to succeeding beneficiaries until all members of the
association have availed such assistance.

E.2. Marketing Aspect

Hogs are marketed in Kapatagan and in Maranding during market day. The current
buying price is P90/kilo live weight.
The proponent shall create the marketing committee to negotiate delivery, volume
and price.
 E.3 Technical Aspects

E.3. A. Appropriate Technology

The appropriate technology will be introduced by Municipal Agriculture Office and

MSU-LNAC in the establishment of swine production

E.3.B. Output Projection

It is projected that swine technology could produce 20% higher yield than the native
species in the area.

E.3.C. Cost Recovery

The total production cost for swine technology production is much higher to native
species. However, cost and return analysis indicates that it has better Return of
Investment (ROI) 38%

E.3.D Plans for Implementation and Operation

The project has three phases of implementation. First phase is the acquisition of
knowledge and skills. This includes the identification of women would undergo the project,
establishing data base of the women and area of study, assessment of needs, action planning,
technology training, field trip to farms practicing the technology they studied, and gathering
and analyzing data generated out of the technology applied. Linkaging and networking activities
are also undertaken under this stage. The Municipal Agriculture Office and MSU-LNAC, and
other development partners are being tapped to spearhead the technology transfer.

The training will be conducted in one (1) batch to be participated by hog raisers. This will be
held in the ARC proper in two (2) days allotted for lectures and exercises. Since production
season will start on the month of December 2010, pre-implementation meeting , canvassing &
bidding of stocks and biologics will commence on 3rd week of November 2010.The first batch of
technology training will be then conducted on the first week of December 2010. Other batches
of technology trainings however, which the association finds necessary in the implementation
of the project replication will be facilitated by the Association itself including its financial
requirements.

Phase II is the knowledge enhancement through cluster experimentation. This includes

continuation or development of the technology applied in phase I with further innovation and
evaluation of women-cooperators learning experiences. This time, they will try to experiment y
using local feeds combination to further reduce production cost without affecting the quality of
the produce. There will be regular women documenters, and observers on the technology and
learning experiences of women cooperators.

Phase III includes institutionalizing the appropriate technology learned by way of

replication.

Recipients are obliged to pay the cost of production in form of 3 piglets weighing 8-10 kls
each to the association. Then the association will give it to the next batch second in line
recipients. The project cycle should continue until all qualified members have put up the
project.
