A Deeper Dive into Kunekune Pigs

The Kunekune ('cooney-cooney') is a fascinating breed of pig with lots of potential as a profitable livestock enterprise, particularly for those looking for a smaller animal that requires less input and is generally easier on your land. A landrace breed originating in New Zealand, these pigs were prized by the Maori people for their resilience and easy keeping. We will discuss breed history and characteristics, optimal conditions for their health and well-being, and niche products derived from Kunekune that can maximize the return on your investments.

This was incredibly informative. I appreciate the full spectrum of information you provided.

[@bkbmckee]

Thank you so much for the lecture!

[@jasonhatfield4747]

This was a really good talk. A couple of those slides, especially for feeding and the costs to feed/process are gold. Thanks!

[@FoodAnimalConcerns]

As soon as she said pronouns, she lost ALL credibility. Please raise the bar for your presenters.

@rickwetzel8921 , Yes , yet another "woke " person ! I don't like dealing with them. Most are not really honest or trustworthy. For example , Jenn states that the land belongs to an Indian tribe. Well then , why is her farm on that land ? I was going to contact her to buy some pigs. Now I will find another source. Perhaps her bank will accept some "woke" into her account ?

Oh my gosh Grow up

[@victorygarden556]

Agreed. Nobody needs to know what side of the political aisle you’re on at an animal presentation, and that is cheap grifting and virtue signaling. Makes everyone uncomfortable needlessly.

@@upnorth1858 , Ah , so you are " woke " also . I wonder what is wrong with you ?

[@freedom8921-s6o]

@@upnorth1858 You obviously don't know what that means. One of the things it means to stop living in a fairy tale.

I give everyone nine "um"s before I leave. Some people can go an entire presentation, others only a few minutes. This was the first person, over the age of 12, that I've heard say all nine "um"s in one sentence.
