<p><span>Pigs are kept both in urban and rural areas. This research identified the performance differences <span>between urban and rural farming systems. The study was conducted in Manokwari regency and involved <span>six districts, i.e. Nothern Manokwari district, Eastern Manokari District, Western Manokwari district,<br /><span>Warmare district, Prafi district and Masni district. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 18.0, an <span>independent-samples T test was run to compare urban and rural pig farming systems. The research found <span>that there were differences of ages and feeding hours (P&lt;0.05) between those two farming systems. There<br /><span>were no differences in household members, experience, average pig owned, working hours, selling period, <span>litter size and number of farrowing. There are nine point of pig farming improvement that should be done to <span>sustain pig farming systems in Manokwari Papua. Education may be improved by provide informal and <span>skillful education. Pig ownership should be increased. Working hours must be increased. Pig keeping in the <span>pens should be done by farmers. Managing pigs with additional time is important so that pigs will be <span>maintained well. Litter sizes both in urban and rural are low, therefore further improvements are needed. <span>Recording pig productivities must be done by every farmer.<br /></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></p><p><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>(Key words: Arfak pig farmers, Pig performance, Rural pig farming, Urban pig farming)</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br /><br class="Apple-interchange-newline" /></span></p>

<p>The objective of this study was to compare the characteristics of pig farming<br />performances of the three different agro-ecological zones, i.e. at island, coastal and lowland ecological zones. Sites represented island pig farmers were Biak and Yapen. Samples subsequently were taken from Samofa District and South Yapen District comprised of Famboaman, Anotaurei, Mariadei and Mantembu villages. Sites in Manokwari were taken from six districts and 15 villages. Characteristic of farmers and pig keeping systems such as household information, pig population and reproduction, and social technical aspects, were studied. Participatory research using interview and observation was separately done towards 155 pig farmers. Statistical analysis used Duncan multiple comparisons and Chi-square (χ2) were used to analyse the data. Coastal pig farmers are younger than island and lowland pig farmers. They have middle number of experiences compared to island pig farmers. The majority of farmers is men-pig farmers and has adequate household members. It was found that many are not educated and are elementary graduation. Altough their objectives are directed to commercial production system. Coastal pig farmers have higher number of animal population added to this is herd size per household compared to the two other agro-ecological zones. Feeding systems are practised in proper combination, such as feeding ration of physiological ages every day and feeding processing. Natural mating is practised by the majority of pig farmers. Several of pig farmers know the sign of oestrus, gestating and practising procedures of breed selection. Distance to market and distance to town are experienced by lowland pig farmers compared to coastal and island pig farmers. Perception of pig farmers is satisfy and they have lack of extensionist visiting, lack in middlemen visiting and positive social acceptances.</p><p>Key words: pig farming systems, agro-ecological zones, pig production, West Papua</p>

The agro-industrial systems comprise activities which transform raw materials of agricultural, aquacultural, livestock and forestry industries from primary production stages to consumption. Pig farming stands out in national and international markets for agro-industrial processes such as slaughtering and meat processing. Although this sector positively contributes to the economies of several countries, the high flow of waste resulting from implementing integrated production systems has led to serious environmental consequences (e.g.,  polluted water bodies and Greenhouse Gases - GHGs emissions). Among the treatment methods, anaerobic digestion reduces the organic load of biomass in the absence of oxygen, generating biogas and organic fertilizer. However, there are limitations associated with high CH4 variability and low yield, resulting a minimal and slow implementation in Brazil. Some research has reported the use of mineral additives to optimize the digestion process. This study comprises a bibliographic review of pig farming systems and production models, followed by an analysis on a global scale and environmental consequences. It is also discussed the use of additive minerals which have been applied in anaerobic digestion of swine manure as well as some prospects for global advances with opportunities to mitigate GHGs and bottlenecks. Despite being a promising technology, detailed evaluations of the use of these additives and their implementation in treatment plants must still be carried out in such a way to understand the optimization of such process.

Integrated fish farming is a system of producing fish in combination with other agricultural/livestock farming operations centered around the fish pond. The study was conducted in Kalong-Kapili NGO of Kamrup (Metro) district of Assam with the objectives of evaluating the cost and return aspects of fish cum pig and fish cum dairy farming systems and identifying the more profitable integration model which gives optimum utilization of given resources. A total of 44 farmers comprising of 24 fish cum pig farmers and 20 fish cum dairy farmers were randomly selected for data collection. Based on data collected, economic analysis of the integrated farming systems were done by using various cost and return concepts. Total operational cost (Cost C) in fish cum pig farming (Rs. 554832.18) was found lower than fish cum dairy farming (Rs. 632267.66). Net income (Rs. 787609.42) and benefitcost ratio (2.42) were found higher in fish-pig integration, which clearly states that integrated fish cum pig farming is more profitable than integrated fish cum dairy farming.
