Bama miniature pigs can be pets and can also be eaten as meat

Bama miniature pigs carry a fragrance, cute and delicious

With a small body and short, slender limbs, black only on the head and rump and white everywhere else, they also constantly give off a fragrance. At the agricultural expo, the Bama miniature pigs at the booth of Xiangfang District, Harbin, attracted the attention of many citizens. Faced with the cute appearance of the Bama miniature pigs, some people at the scene could not wait to place orders.

Staff member Wang Zhiyou told reporters that Bama miniature pigs originated in Bama Yao Autonomous County in Guangxi, the "hometown of Chinese fragrant pigs," and were introduced from Guangxi by Xiangfang District, Harbin, at the beginning of this year. The biggest difference between Bama miniature pigs and ordinary pigs is that they are small and cute in appearance, reaching only about 30 jin at most as adults, making them suitable as pets. In addition, their unique meat quality means that even when cooked without adding any seasonings, they give off a rich fragrance, and they have long enjoyed the reputation that "when one family cooks the meat, the four neighbors smell the fragrance, and its scent can be smelled from seven li away." Moreover, Bama miniature pig meat has a high protein content but extremely low fat content. At the same time, Bama miniature pig meat is comprehensively nutritious, rich in amino acids and trace elements essential to the human body, and its levels are generally higher than those of ordinary pigs. "This pig was successfully bred in Harbin in the first half of this year. Current output is very small. It is expected to go on the market within the year, and the expected selling price is 25 yuan/jin.
