It employed the survey research method. It was conducted at Barangay Malpalon and Poypoy, Calintaan, Occidental Mindoro. The respondents were the 30 randomly-selected Swine Production and Dispersal Program (SPDP) beneficiaries for at least one year and had received at least one piglet from the program. A survey and interview were conducted to determine whether the extension program has helped the beneficiaries. Mean, frequency distribution, percentage, and Kendal-Tau b were used in this study. The results shows that the SPDP beneficiaries were middle-aged, high school graduate, female, and member of the SPDP.
