Camagüey, Cuba, Dec 29th.- José Luis Rodríguez Prieto is a farmer associated with the Credit and Services Cooperative (CCS) Braudilio Leyva, in this municipality, which achieves good results in the breeding of dark-skinned pigs.
During the course of this calendar, the small farmer delivered half a ton of meat to the Basic Business Unit (UEB) Frutas Selectas, sold 33 animals and donated another three.
In response to the call from the political and administrative leadership in the territory, he is preparing to participate in the Agricultural Fair on the occasion of the end of the year, where he hopes to sell more than 20 pigs to the population.
He said that he decided to breed the dark-coated breed because it is more resistant, «it can be kept loose in the pasture and is fed with waste from the crops of root crops and sugar cane that are produced on the farm», he said.
For next year, the usufructuary José Luis Rodríguez hopes to expand with the construction of warehouses and corrals after receiving more than a million pesos from a Local Development Project.
