It's a shame you can't heat up the chicken slaughter in a big tub and feed the pigs. With all the meals, your going to need to add more pigs. With the new farm. You should include prepared meals as an option or pre stocked cabins. Every local visitor becomes a Rico customer. Also have there take home order delivered the day they leave.
Excellent work👍👍👍 . Thanks for sharing. For pigs who had never been outside their instinct definitely kicked in being in the forest and started to dig. After all pigs are forest animals
Was that the sound of chainsaws in the background over the first half of the video? A friend of mine did training in forestry, but was disillusioned because he spent all his time felling! Commercial forestry is so destructive of land.
And yet some national or state parks ( here in the US ) are very unhealthy due to not enough felling or other management, according to Joel Salatin and those in the know. I would want to know more, about any particular situation and all of the pertinent details, b4 I just believed they were doing a bad thing. Just what I've learned, not meaning to be annoying or rude !
Those pigs will have a great life and you will have your high class bacon in the end.( I have Linderöds pigs myself) Thanks for a great video as always. Great work.👍
Thanks for showing the after-evisceration disposal step. Fermented chicken seems explosive; I wonder how a person gets into that line of work. I guess there’s a niche for everyone. On the other hand, what a pretty farm and so much to look forward to at harvest. Our bok choy and chard are best ever, with tomatoes, peppers, beans, corn and squash thriving so far, no dig. Cheers from NorCal.
I love what you've done to restore the deciduous forest! The trotters on those pigs will make an incredible BROTH after all the scrap-disposal good work and good rooting around they've have also accomplished for nature. Today your video really makes my heart soar if I can embellish my gratitude for the viewing. Tak! I can hear the Swallow's song while you're planting the rice: A sure sound of Summer.
Great to see pigs again. Now that you have pigs around will you be considering giving the pigs the chicken guts and such? Just one more thing to feed them instead of hauling away and adding " pig" compost to the forest. Last thing, I have to ask. Were those lots of chain saws or moto cross bikes we heard in so much of the audio? The only distraction I had was constantly trying to guess what it was but it didn't make it hard to listen to you. Good luck with this year and happy you will be having fresh bacon this fall.😃🐖🥓🌤👍
@@Theorimlig damm,that's to bad. I do understand. Cows should not be given animal parts,although cows will eat some animal products if given in a acceptable form by the cow. But chickens and pigs are omnivores and do well eating as such. Of course you never feed them the remains of sick animals. Anyway I do understand it's the law and as such you follow the law. But I also believe in a no waste solution. I'm glad in the US the homesteader can use what would be waste as feed for some animals. At least for personal use, and thats how I believe Richard's pigs will be used. I thought he said those pigs were for them, not commercial resale. Anyway thank you for bringing me up to date on their agriculture laws. Have a great day.
Have you heard of wild rice? It's an north american rice and to my knowledge the most norden rice of them all, well technicly it's a grass but who cares right? It usualy mature in 110 days, likes full sun and needs the water to freeze for it to germinate.
Wild rice is not at all related to the rice Richard is trialing. Definitely, Richard should trial Minnesota wild rice, however I believe it requires moving fresh water not standing water. But I'm no expert.

Richard the fruit trees are looking great. So are the cattle for so early in the season. Good job.

It's hard to generalize about commercial forest harvest...some is really necessary, some is over much.
sounds more like motorcross bicykle
I'm trying an "upland" rice that doesn't need flooding. Thought it might interest you - "Duborskian Rice"
I just bought 1.2ha of forest next to my farm, can’t wait to put six pigs in there. Thinking about Noir de Bigorre for the hams.
Those pigs will have a great life and you will have your high class bacon in the end.( I have Linderöds pigs myself)

Very good, this garden of yours congratulations
Get a leaf blower for the grain room :)
Best of luck with the rice! Look forward to updates 👍

it was chainsaws. he mentioned the forestry commisions were clearing trees for the power lines
Feeding animals raised for food animal products like guts is illegal in Sweden.

@@IcedCub hey thank you about it was chainsaws,I missed that. Dang,that was a lot of chainsaws. Have a great day 🌤
Those pigs look so happy
Well managed..its not easy
Don’t you know those poor pigs are human too? They are living creatures and you cut them up with chainsaws! Monster.
15:55 Anybody know what these tall clam shell trays called? can you buy them in the US?
Why would there be a zebra in sweden? 🤣🤣
Since pigs are homestead pigs and not commercial pigs could you have fed them some of the waste from the chicken slaughter?
I would guess it depends on if they go to the slaughter house or not. Atleast it would in my state in the USA.
Amazing variety and energy
Looking GOOD!! Happy piggy’s.. beautiful farm... thank you for al you bring 🍀
Those pigs crack me up.
Pigs in the glen again!!
Hey Richard! It would be great if you video more the pig work at Ridgedale. Nice work!
Great informative info, really well done. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experiences!
I would like to know if there are any videos on setting up that electric fence for pigs.. anyone know? I’m off to search for it
Any tips for getting the electric stock netting tight? We really suffer with it sagging and almost falling over.
Amazing job!!! Truly impressive!!!
Lovely to see the pigs out doing their thing and good luck with the rice
Beautiful, Sacred, Life
Can't wait to see results of the rice 💕💕💕

Are the layers not saleable after a year?

Stop pandering to the government.
