This study was aimed to calculate the cost collecting food garbage for the use as the fermented-food-garbage-feed for hog and to compute the processing cost of the feed. Based on the results of the feeding tests on hogs, the profitability of hog raising with the fermented-food-garbage-feed for hog fattening was analyzed.
When the farmers fed the fermented-food-garbage-feed for hog fattening, nearly 10,000 won of loss occurred per head. Therefore, without compensation for this amounts, hog farmers would not have any interests this project.
In macro economic aspect, 60.0~102.6 thousands M/T of corn for feed, which is worth of 4.8~32.0 million dollars of feed cost would be saved as a whole. Besides, by using the fermented-food-garbage-feed for hog, 95.4~67,840 million Won of garbage treatment costs could be saved. When these substantial economic effects are considered, this project would deserve to be adopted as a government policy for environment protection.
