Abstract :
[en] Ethnology and potentialities of local African pig In most parts of Africa, local pigs are raised mostly by poor farmers. This breed has some potential to adapt to difficult conditions of its breeding. This review describes the characteristics of the local African pig and its potential in its breeding environment. To begin with, the origin and ethnological characteristics of this breed were described. Then, zootechnical potential expressed by this race in its breeding system, physiological and genetic potential exploitable to improve its performance have been explored.
