China - Food - Pig Farm

Two farm hands clean the excrement in the pen where they keep pregnant sows at the Grand Canal Pig Farm in Jiaxing, Zhejiang Province, China on 04 August, 2011. The material will be used to produce Methane as well as fertilizer for the nearby rice farms. Pork is by far the most popular meat eaten in China, with its value deeply ingrained in the mind of the Chinese people. The importance of pork in the Chinese diet and the role of prices in affecting social stability are demonstrated by the establishment in 2007 by the central government of a "strategic pork reserve", the only one of its kind in the world.
