Farm visit: Pig industry newcomers seize opportunities in Argentina

Argentina is destined to become a world player in pork production. This enables existing producers to further expand their business, but also gives room for new players to enter the market. The Good Pig, in General Las Heras, is a perfect example of this. Twins Matias and Nicolas Riva entered pig production in 2015 with no background at all. They now run a closed sow farm they are currently expanding to 1,300 sows. The plan is to get to 3,000 sows within the next couple of years. [caption id="a
