Hi this may be a little OT for the forum but I need it for school. Are there any small backyard hog raisers here that can answer my interview questions? Preferably those with 6 hogs or less. But big business hog raisers and hobbyists are also welcome to respond.

1)   How did you get started as a hog farmer/ raiser. what gave you the idea, how did you prepare, when did you start, who helped you?
2)   What influenced you in the first place?
3)   Why are you into hog raising vs. any other business/ negosyo?
4)   What do you enjoy the most about being a hog/swine raiser/ farmer?
5)   What do you dislike the most about being a hog/swine raiser/ farmer, if any?
6)   Daily Activities/ Day in the Life:
From when he wakes up to until he sleeps at night, what activities does a hog/swine raiser/ farmer get into?
7)   Dilemmas
What are the issues, problems that he encounters in a day/ week/ month with regard to his business/ negosyo?
    Triumphs/ High Points?
What are the good moments, high points, successes in a day? In a week? In a month?
9)   Media/ Channel/Touchpoint Habits:  To make you more informed about your negosyo, what do you like to do? For example, do you/ do you like reading komiks/ books or magazines (which ones)? Watching TV shows (which ones), listen to radio broadcasts/ programs (which ones), follow certain celebrities (which ones)?  Would you be interested in joining and learning from a local club or forum for other hog/swine raisers like you? Why and why not?
10)   Forms of Entertainment:  How do you like to entertain yourself: What do you like to watch, read, listen to for entertainment? Why / why not ? (Please ask about but not limit yourself to : soap operas/ telenovelas? Radio dramas? Movies? Fiesta shows? Gatherings at Town hall?)
11)   Have you ever participated in any sort of promo (ie raffle promo, promo for a brand? Promo with a prize, etc?)  Can you tell me what you liked and did not like with the experience?


Responses are very much appreciated. Thanks
