European wild boars join Major Bateman’s Kenville farm
European wild boars are being raised on Major Bateman’s farm south of Kenville Man. Six litters expected before Christmas would add about 30 piglets with stripes. Bateman, back in 1988, shifted from cattle to this stock for lower labor and protection from wind on dry bedding. The meat is marketed as low fat with less cholesterol. Manitoba tests on nitrate levels involve 50 to 60 spot tests at Portage’s Agriculture Office to ensure animal safety.
