...how a pigs solid waste breaks down compared to human?
I'm toying with the idea of raising a few Berkshire pigs on a platform in an area where I have an existing septic system. It would be really handy if I could use that system to wash waste to it, but not sure of the breakdown rate. The system is large as I used to run a commercial kitchen with it and the county required me to install a Low-Pressure Dose System with 1,000 gal grease trap and two 250 gal septic tanks with one 250 gal pump tank. From memory I think there's 8 lines in the drain field.
