Joel Salatin Teaches Pasture Pigs (for Profit)

Basically ten, 1/2 acre paddocks set with two simple strands of electric wire and a couple of moveable wooden gates. Check out more videos like this, HERE: bit.ly/PermaculturePigsCourse
In this video, he explains his 5-acre system that could multiply upwards OR be scaled down.
So here’s what’s possible for you…
In Joel’s example, he’s running 35 pigs over 5 acres.
That’s seven pigs per acre.
Say you want to run 2-3 pigs, then you only 1/2 acre!
And it’s only gonna take a bare minimum of infrastructure. Like two strands of electric fencing, simple fence posts, an energizer, a waterer, and a feeder. That’s it.
Oh, and you don’t even own the land. Actually, the land we showcase in this video is LEASED land! Joel doesn’t even own it and he’s bringing in well over 100,000 a year from this pastured pork operation.
Throw out your ideas of fancy fences and barns and bring on the simple life.
So clear an hour in your schedule and Watch Joal Salatin Teach His Pastured Pig model. You won’t regret it.
FYI, this is actually one of many videos inside my Permaculture Pigs Course. bit.ly/PermaculturePigsCourse

Could Cut back on volume of music, couldn't hear clearly what he's saying at the end. Great content.
-
I loved the whole movie other than the music was waayyy too loud at the end. I'm sorry, I don't want to seem ungrateful for your gift but I couldn't hear what Joel was saying. 😢
-
Great vid and recap of your other tours with him....all except for the last few minutes when the piano music came on ungodly loud and I couldn't understand what y'all were saying - lol. Seriously though, good vid Justin, thanks!
-
WOW!! Joel got in line twice when the good Lord was handing out intelligence. As did you Justin.Very informative.Thank you for sharing. Be blessed and be safe. #GOTPIG 🍴🐷

Man! Joel sets my soul on fire!! He just gives off that aura of knowledge and excitement in the most chill kinda way.. I currently live in a brownstone.. With basically a 12x12 yard. If the HOA wouldn't kick me out I would 10,000 be rock in pigs next year.. 😂😂😂

I've always said I would never have pigs, but the more of your pig videos I watch the more I want to get pigs.

A couple or so weeks ago Al at Lumnah Acres was moving his pigport when the door came open. The pigs were so trained to the fence that stayed in the turned area and he had no problem getting them back into pigport.

Fascinating! I can do this on a scaled down version. I am picking up 4 kunekune piglets thanks to your inspiration, and I have set aside a pasture area for them, that I will be seeding in a couple days. For now, they will share the barn through the worst part of our winter with the goats. Come April, we will start this rotation system. I'm so excited. Thank you Justin and Joe!
-
I’m ready to get more pigs. Thanks for the inspiration Justin.
-
Joel is the MAN! Incredible information. Thank you so much for sharing this with us!
-
He’s fascinating to listen to. Thanks for sharing him with us.
-
very interesting how large scale operation works. Really see how you can small scale this and see what you did with the pigs clearing weeks ago. Going forward having pigs year round in this application seems really can help in land management. Great Job Justin!

I too have a great respect for electric cattle fences. Once when walking the woods next a cattle pasture I accidentally urinated on a HIGH voltage wire I didn't know was there behind a tree, believe me when I say that was something I never did again ! (we kept our fences Very hot because we had a bunch of Knuckle-headed cattle that would usually get out when the weather was at it's worst, late night arctic cold with blowing sleet and your phone rings with your neighbor telling you your cattle is on the road), P.S.- just try and get cattle back in the way they got out, truly a mission impossible.
-
Justin, that was a wonderful presentation about Pig pasturing. I'm.sure that editing was quite a task with flash backs to reiterate what Joel had spoken of. Very good job Justin. Thanks for such a fine presentation.
-
That was such great content. This should be in schools.
-
Joel is a humble genius!
-
Such amazing stuff to learn. Wish we had known this when we were (small) farming (hmesteading) here in West Aust back in the '80's. We just let everyone roam wherever on the farm.........
-
Very useful information. We are planning on pigs in the spring. Thank you for sharing.
-
Thank you for sharing this! I hope within the next 1-2 years to begin my own off-grid homestead and pigs will certainly feature there, so I'm planning on purchasing the course as soon as my paycheck goes through. Your videos have been a huge inspiration and are a perfect mix of good info and expert guidance. Then again, anything seems possible with Uncle Justin at the helm. Thanks again, excellent content!

Justin give big daddy a hug for all of us out here.... I know what is on your mind when your father gets sick and one sees what is happening to them the head gets cloudy and all
