Disclaimer

Pig farming disclaimer: The information provided on USAPigs.com (“we”, “us”, or “our”) is for educational and general informational purposes only and is intended to support pig farmers and enthusiasts in understanding pig farming in the United States.

This pig farming disclaimer applies to all articles, guides, checklists, downloads, and any other content published on our website, and by using this site, you agree that you remain fully responsible for any decisions you make on your farm.​

Pig Farming Disclaimer – Educational Use Only

Our goal is to share practical information that helps you learn more about pig breeds, nutrition, health, and different farming systems in the USA, but nothing on this website should be considered professional advice. Even when we provide detailed explanations, tables, or examples, this pig farming disclaimer confirms that all content is for general education only and not tailored to your specific farm situation.​

The content on USAPigs.com is not veterinary, medical, legal, tax, or financial advice and should never replace consultation with qualified professionals.

You should always consult a licensed veterinarian when making decisions related to animal health, disease management, treatments, medications, vaccinations, or herd health programs. You should also rely on local advisors for decisions about zoning, permits, contracts, and regulations.

For budgeting, loans, insurance, or profitability planning, you should work with a financial professional who understands pig farming operations in your state or region.

When to Seek Professional Pig Farming Advice

Each pig farm is unique in terms of genetics, housing, climate, feed availability, labour, and local laws, so professional pig farming advice is essential before making major changes.

Before adjusting herd size, constructing new buildings, changing feed rations, or adopting new health protocols, you should get support from veterinarians, nutritionists, extension officers, or consultants who know your local conditions.

Many farmers also rely on agricultural extension programmes and USDA-related resources that outline requirements for animal welfare, biosecurity, environmental protection, and, where applicable, organic certification standards.

No Guarantees of Results

Even when using similar methods, pig farming results can vary significantly from farm to farm and year to year.

While we aim to share accurate, up‑to‑date, and practical information, we do not guarantee any specific outcomes in terms of profit levels, litter sizes, growth rates, feed conversion ratios, mortality rates, or overall herd performance.

The examples, stories, and scenarios on this site are for illustration only and do not guarantee the same results on your farm. You accept all risk by relying on this pig farming disclaimer and USAPigs.com.

Estimates, Prices, and Examples

Any numbers that appear on this website—such as cost estimates, price ranges, feed budgets, income projections, or production targets—are approximations only and may change over time.

Actual costs and returns depend on your location, market conditions, genetics, feed prices, labour costs, and management practices, and they may differ significantly from the examples shown.

You should always verify current prices, local regulations, and market conditions with relevant authorities, processors, and suppliers before making financial decisions for your farm.

Internal Resources on USAPigs.com

To help you explore pig farming topics in more depth, USAPigs.com offers several detailed guides that expand on breeds, systems, feeding, and health.

You can also deepen your understanding of daily management by reading Pig Nutrition & Feeding Guide (USA 2026): Stages, FCR & Cost‑Saving Tips, Pig Health and Disease Management in the USA: Prevention, Vaccination, and Biosecurity, and Small‑Scale Pig Farming in the USA (2026): Complete Backyard & Homestead Guide; these resources provide broader context while still adhering to the pig farming disclaimer.

We have designed these internal resources to supplement the information on this page, but they should not take the place of professional advice specific to your farm.

External Resources and Official Guidelines

From time to time, we may mention or link to external resources to help you access official or more detailed guidance on pig farming and livestock production.

For information about organic pig production and USDA-certified organic requirements, you can review resources such as “Raising Organic Pigs: A Guide to USDA Certified Organic Requirements” from ATTRA and related USDA tipsheets, which explain topics like animal sourcing, feed, healthcare, and living conditions under organic standards.

You can also consult the USDA and government livestock portals for broader information about livestock operation resources, support programs, and regulatory expectations for pork and hog producers in the United States.
