Water Filter Helps Pig Farm Prosper

Our friend Ajarn (= teacher) and his wife started their pig farm in Huai Tong during February 2023 with 6 sow and newly constructed pig stalls for the soon-to-be- growing herd.  One crucial factor in growing and maintaining a pig farm is a constant and abundant supply of clearn water not only to nurish the herd but also to keep the stalls clean to prevent disease, especially a swine flu breakout.

After running the pig farm for several months, Ajarn noticed his water supply was becoming increasingly dirty and sometimes had a foul smell.  After contacting our team, we were able to purchase and reusable sediment / charcoal filter system to install at Ajarn's pig farm.  We made the 4.5 hour trip out to Huai Tong Village, Mae Hong Son to assist Ajarn with installing the water filter system and getting his pig herd the water they need - abundant and clean water.

Ajarn reported a healthy drove of piglets was born recently and he is encouraged with the progress of his pig farm.
