Boars run 10 to 25 dollars for weaned pigs and 50 to 100 for yearlings. A group of 20 owners sharing a 50 dollar boar would owe 2.50 each. The boar stays with one member who cares for breeding while others repay with piglets at weaning. When sows in heat, they travel to the farm with the boar for service.
