dc.description.abstract The study seeks to examine the characteristics of small-scale pig farmers in Binduri district. Simple random sampling was used to select twenty (20) communities in the district. However, snow ball’s sampling method was used to select ten (10) respondents from each community. In the district, 87.1% of small-scale pig farmers have the opinion that, their level of training on pig production practices has great negative effect on small scale pig farming. Hence, there is need for sufficient training on pig production practices especially for small-scale pig farmers in the district. This calls for government, Non-governmental Organizations (NGOs) and other stakeholders to step in to support small scale pig production in the Binduri district. en_US
