TAMPARULI: Two pig farms singled out for air and water pollution here have been warned to immediately rectify the situation or risk being fined by the authority.

State Agriculture and Food Industry Minister Datuk Seri Dr Jeffrey G. Kitingan said the pig farmers were told to improve their waste management system following complaints from nearby villagers that waste from the farms found its way into the river.

During a visit to Ladang Green Farm Trading and Ladang Jadima, Friday, he said while the government is supportive of the industry, farmers have the responsibility to ensure their farms would not become a nuisance to neighbours.
