(Baonghean.vn) - If you go to Hung Thinh hamlet (Phu Son commune - Tan Ky), everyone will know Mr. Nguyen Xuan Thanh because of his unique way of raising wild pigs. Over 290 hectares of natural forest were contracted, he both protected and released hundreds of wild pigs and brought in high income.

| In 2012, Mr. Nguyen Xuan Thanh (Hung Thinh hamlet, Phu Son commune, Tan Ky) brought F1 generation wild boar breeds from the North to graze in the 298 ha forest area that was assigned to him. After 4 years, Mr. Thanh's herd of pigs has grown to hundreds of pigs, each year bringing in a net profit of more than 100 million VND. |
 |
| Due to the wild nature of the pigs, releasing them into the wild will make the meat more delicious and more popular with customers. However, due to the large forest area, counting the number of pigs is very difficult. Every time he sells a large quantity, he has to hire someone to set traps or herd them to the designated area for easy catching. |
 |
| Recently, he started training the pigs to listen to the gong to return to the barn for easier management. |
 |
| In the barn area, he fenced with B40 mesh and released corn kernels as food for the pigs. |

| F1 generation pig. |
 |
| There are herds of pigs living and giving birth in the forest and occasionally coming down to the pond area to drink water. |
 |
Due to their limited contact with humans, this herd of pigs is very shy, and at the slightest noise, they immediately run into the forest. Mr. Nguyen Xuan Thanh said: "Although customers love it because the meat is much more delicious than many other wild boar farms, I will soon have a plan to fence off a large area of the forest for easier management." |
