Feral Hogs Are Eating Your Profits — Here’s How to Stop Them

Feral hogs aren’t just hard on fields—they’re hard on your bottom line. Fast, smart, and highly adaptable, they cause an estimated $2.5 billion in damage and control costs each year, with at least $800 million directly tied to agriculture. For farmers already managing tight margins, the impact hits hard.

Your High-Value Rows Are at Risk

Feral hogs target the most energy-dense crops, which is why corn, peanuts, soybeans, and other high-value rows experience disproportionate losses year after year.

And the damage doesn’t stop there:

• Fresh plantings take multiple hits. Hogs often return to the same acres, leading to costly re-plants that rarely recover full yield potential.
  
  
• Soil health takes a beating. Rooting accelerates erosion, disrupts nutrient availability, and weakens overall soil structure.
  
  
• Uneven rows slow everything down. Rooting leaves fields rough and inconsistent, driving up the time, fuel, and labor required to manage those acres.
  

For many farmers, the challenge isn’t just stopping the damage. It’s keeping ahead of a problem that moves and multiplies faster than traditional tools can manage.

Why the Pig Brig® Trap System Works

The Pig Brig® Trap System was engineered for real working farms, offering dependable performance without added complexity.

Continuous-entry for whole-sounder removal. No gate timing or risky drops. Hogs root in naturally and continue to enter, allowing farmers to remove the entire sounder and reduce the chance of damage shifting to another field.

Simply tough. Our double-walled net with Boar Shield is built to withstand aggressive thrashing. It’s durable by design—because farmers can’t afford downtime.

Trap anywhere. Pig Brig requires no power, no connectivity, and only one person to set up. You can deploy in tree lines, levees, pivot corners, or any remote edge where hogs move.

Backed by People. Every trap is supported by a team that works directly with farmers across the country. When you need help, you get someone who understands what’s at stake and how to keep you running.
