Animal and fish raising is one of the sources of livelihood of many Filipinos especially in the rural areas. It can be done in one’s backyard or vacant lot if you have the right knowledge, skill and focus. It can be a profitable business.

Examples of livestock animals that are highly marketable are the following:

Pig/Swine/Hog - Swine producers need to have alternative markets and choose what yields the greatest net return. Because swine are marketed when they reach at least 50 kg., the services of the middlemen as selling agents and direct meat

3 processors are tapped in this case. For shipment and transport, observe proper handling of these hogs to keep rein on loses due to shrinkage, bruises, injuries, and possible deaths.

Raising pig/swine is a profitable business. Many products are derived from swine meat or pork. Even the protein is derived from its meat. Pig can be sold at five to six months of age.

Cow/Cattle- Marketing cows/cattle may be done in three ways namely: auction, direct sales, and electronic.

Goats- A ready market for goat products is any of the following: sale barns, buying stations, goat pools, processing plants, on-farm sales, and restaurants needing goat meat. Goat can be slaughtered at 3 to 5 months of age. It can be sold also by weighing.

How are livestock animals marketed? Why should there be marketing strategies employed by any animal grower? Once animals raised are due for harvest, one essential phase to address is marketing or selling. These animals may be brought to the market as meat or they may be sold alive.

What is marketing? Marketing is a process of putting up or selling products for sale.

Market Demands for Animal and Fish Products and By-products Because of our increasing population, there is a corresponding increase in the demand for beef, pork and carabeef as well as fish particularly tilapia, bangus, shrimps, shellfish and other fish harvested from the lakes, rivers and seas. The production of cow, hog, goat commonly come from backyard raising. The meat goes directly to different markets in our country and are sold for household consumption and other industry. We import pork, beef cuts and live hogs for breeding but we do not export animal meat. The popular meat dish among Muslims and Ilocanos is goat meat. Filipinos savor goat delicacies like caldereta, kilawin, papaitan, sinampalukan and adobo. Goat meat is a healthy alternative to pork and beef since goats feed on grass and vegetables.

Marketing Pork, Beef and By-products . Pork and beef are sold in the following forms: choice cuts, fresh, frozen and cured like longganisa, hotdogs, tapa and tocino.

. Cow’s milk is packed as fresh milk, powdered milk, evaporated milk. It can also be used as ingredient for butter, yogurt, cheese, ice cream, leche flan, and other dessert products.

. To market pork, beef and by-products it includes the following: 1. distributing in the supermarkets and groceries; 2. directly selling to stores or selling them in open markets; 3. wholesale basis; 4. ordering by delivery; and 5. selling online.

Marketing Fish Fish is sold in the market whether wholesale or retail. It can be sold in various forms such as fresh, frozen, live, choice cut, preserved like dried fish or tuyo, , and bottled or canned fish. Fish can be sold by kilo, piece or in small batches for retail selling. While in wholesale selling, it is sold in large containers.

The retailers usually buy wholesale in fishports like in Navotas City, where fishermen bring their catch in “banyeras” or styro boxes. One way of buying is through “bulungan” or whisper, a kind of bidding process where a buyer whispers to the middleman the price he or she is willing to pay. Usually the highest bidder gets the catch.

Indicators for harvesting/capturing fish . St. Peter’s Fish (Tilapia) can be harvested after three to four months of

Harvesting Fish Fish is an important part of the Filipino diet. The nutritional content, cheapest cost, availability and abundance of fish in the market have made it popular in our diet. Fish is the major source of high-quality protein without the presence of saturated fat found in meat which is not good for the health.

There are several methods used to harvest fish: 1. Use of Salakab or Taklob - this is commonly SALAKAB OR TAKLOB used by fishermen who catch fish on brooks or streams.

2. Use of Baited Hook and Line-the hook catches only one fish at a time and it takes time to catch many fishes. BAITED HOOK AND LINE

3. Use of Net - the most common and practical method used by the fishermen and the commercial fishing boats in rivers, lakes, seas and fishponds.

There are two kinds of net:  The dip net is shaped like a square and is lowered at the bottom of the pond and then lifted as fast as possible.

6

 The lift net is a large version of the dip net and would require about four persons to hold the net on four sides for faster lifting.

DIP NET

4. Total Drainage-the pond is drained of its water and a long fishnet is used to catch the fish.

Computing the Income Earned from Marketed Products In determining cost and profit, record and compute all expenses in raising the animal. First, determine the total expenses. Second, divide the total expenses by the number of animals to sell. Then, divide the price of an animal on its average kilos. Lastly, get the percentage of profit to be added to the price of each animal.

For Example: The total expenses for raising 5 hogs in 6 months is Php20,000.00. The hog has an average weight of 80 kilos and you intend to gain a profit of at least 50%. Compute how much you should sell per kilo of pork. . Php20,000.00 – total expenses of 5 hogs in 6 months . 80 kilos – average weight of each hog . 50% - profit

Computation: . Php20,000.00/5 = Php4,000.00 (1 hog) . Php4,000.00/80 = Php50.00 (1 kilo of pork) . 50% of Php50.00 is Php25.00 (profit) . Php75.00 per kilo of a hog (selling price)

Read the sentences, compute and answer the question below. Your mother raised 10 hogs in your backyard. The average weight of each hog is 20 kilos. The total expenses in raising the 10 hogs in 5 months is Php30,000.00. She wants to gain a profit of at least 100%. How much should she sell per kilo of pork? Show your computation. Write your answer on a separate sheet of paper.

The market demands for meat and fish are increasing due to increasing population. There are several methods in harvesting fish: the use of taklob, use of baited hook and line, use of net and total drainage. The different indicators for harvesting or capturing the fish: tilapia can be harvested after three to four months of feeding; milkfish can be harvested after seven to ten months of feeding; and catfish can be harvested between four to six months of feeding. In determining cost and profit, record and compute all expenses in raising the animal. First, determine the total expenses. Second, divide the total expenses by the number of animals to sell. Then, divide the price of an animal on its average kilos. Lastly, get the percentage of profit to be added to the price of each animal.
