Primefact Number: 712    Edition: First edition    Released/reviewed: 01 Nov 2007

This Primefact aims to highlight the key legal requirements for pig ownership and farming in Australia.

All the regulations applying to pigs in commercial piggeries also apply to small-scale farming and pet pigs.

Many of these regulations exist to protect the Australian pig industry and other livestock industries from devastating exotic diseases, such as foot and mouth disease and African swine fever.
