A pig eating its food, which consists of boiled immature corn shoots and ground corn. This is to fatten the pig up, since once it is mature and big enough, it will be sold to butchers from neighboring villages or ones from Monywa. Full-grown pigs are sold for around 200 USD. Some people substitute their incomes by raising piglets, which are sold for 35 USD, often to other villagers. Pigs are often kept in muddy, cool areas in the back of barns. Like cows, they are tied to stakes so they do not wonder off.
