ABSTRACT
In a study
conducted in the pig production area of Abia State in determining the Risk and
Risk management strategics in pig farming (using frequency distribution,
importance indices) of primary data collected from pig farmers revealed that
output price followed by input price were ranked highest among the various risk
sources. Pig farmers were poor in the use of risk reducing strategies. Reason
for non-use of some risk reducing strategics is cither that they arc not
available or difficult to implement. The most reducing strategy used was
livestock enterprise diversification. It is suggested that agricultural policy
makers should encourage among pig farmers the use of formal insurance and
cooperative marketing.
