Strengthening Hog Farming Communities: The Rise of the Purina Feeders Club in Southern Negros Oriental
The southern region of Negros Oriental is seeing a surge of optimism and growth in its local hog farming sector, thanks to the revitalized efforts of the Purina Feeders Club, a farmer-led initiative dedicated to elevating the standards and sustainability of livestock production in the area.
At the forefront is a respected figure in the community and owner of an integrated farm in Negros Oriental. This farm has become a model for integrated hog farming practices, inspiring fellow growers to adopt more sustainable and profitable systems. Under his leadership, the club has become a thriving platform for knowledge-sharing, collaboration, and support among local feeders.
Driving the momentum of the club’s activities is Jan Ace Golosino, the dedicated Territory Business Manager for Purina Cargill, who regularly facilitates the Purina Feeders Club meetings. These gatherings serve as vital opportunities for farmers to access the latest technical updates, feed solutions, and productivity strategies tailored to local challenges and market needs.
The initiative is further bolstered by Uybontiong Agriventures, Purina Cargill’s exclusive distributor in the region. Together with several Market Development Representatives (MDRs), the team ensures that technical guidance and timely service reach every corner of the province.
As the program gains momentum, the number of satisfied Purina users continues to grow—driven by the world-class quality of the products. Backed by more than 130 years of ever-improving excellence and expertise in animal nutrition, Purina feeds are trusted globally for their high feed production efficiency, which translates to greater farm performance at a cost that remains affordable despite being the best in class.
Through consistent engagement, the Purina Feeders Club has become more than just a support group—it is a community movement toward excellence in animal nutrition and farm profitability. With farmers gaining confidence and access to science-based feeding solutions, the region is steadily transforming into a stronghold of modern, integrated, and sustainable hog farming practices.
As the Purina Feeders Club in Southern Negros Oriental continues to grow, so does the vision: to empower every backyard and commercial hog farmer in South Negros to thrive—anchored by Purina’s trusted feed technology and the collaborative spirit of local champions.
