Benefits
For anyone giving thought to owning & raising a particular species, the "Storey" Guide books should be the first book to buy. Why? Because they focus on fundamentals, have many illustrations and data, are not so long that they're offputting and are written in "laymen's language" (I dislike the phrase) for USA conditions by authors respected in their industry. Once you have a "Storey" sense of a species you can move other books that address more specific aspects.

Chapters include:
  • An Introduction to Raising Hogs
  • Raising Hogs for the Family Table
  • Home Butchering and Pork Processing
  • Fitting and Showing Hogs
  • The Hog Business
  • Preparing for Your Breeding Herd
  • Selecting Breeding Stock
  • Managing Your Breeding Herd
  • Hog Health Care
  • Managing Your Hog Operation
  • Day to Day Life with Hogs
  • Reproductive Information.
