Pig Farming Business Proposal

Pig farming is a lucrative business that requires skill, patience, and capital. You can start small, but try to keep your environment clean at all times.

In the pig farming business, all the by-products are useful:

• Mature pigs can be sold for meat
• The piglets can be reared or sold to those who will rear them to maturity.
• The pig faeces are processed and used as organic manure in farms.
• Also, the maggots in the pig faeces can be harvested after three days and be sold.

One major thing that makes pig farming lucrative is that the market for pork meat is always available.

Cash Flow Statement Template

Starting a pig farming business is not as easy as people may view it. It requires capital and skill to manage the business. Because it is capital intensive for a maximum return on investment, it requires adequate financial management.

As a starter or someone already in the business, you will need our cash flow statement template. The template is divided into four worksheets/tabs:

3. The one-year cash flow tab displays the cash flow statement for one year.
4. The one-year profit and loss worksheet displays the one-year profit and loss statement for the business.
5. If you downloaded the six-year cash flow statement template, two more tabs will be added:
   • 6-year cash flow – which displays the cash flow statement of the business for a period of six years.
   • 6-year profit & loss statement – which displays the business’ profit & loss for six years.
