N1  - This study used twelve (12) native pigs which were randomly distributed to four treatments such as Treatment 1, commercial feeds, Treatment 2 restaurant left-over Treatment 3 25% gallang. 25% darak, 25% camote leaves and 25% papaya and Treatment 4. 50% corn meal and 50% darak to assess their growth performance.

The results of the study revealed that the average initial weight of Treatments 1, 2, 3 and 4 with means of 7.80, 3.600, 4733 and 10 kgs Respectively revealed a highly significant difference (P<0) when subjected to statistical analysis. Moreover, the average daily gain of Treatments 1, 2, 3 and 4 with means of 0 437, 0 101, 0.083 and 0.203 kgs respectively showed a non-significant difference after statistical analysis The average final weight of native pigs in Treatments 1, 2, 3, and 4 were 35.166, 6.666, 9 166 and 22.833 kgs respectively A high level of significance (P<0) on the average final weight among the treatment means was shown after statistical analysis On the other hand, the feed conversion ratio of Treatments 1, 2, 3 and 4 were 2.645, 11.765, 18.850 and 5.665 respectively Statistical analysis showed significant differences (P<0) among the FCR treatment means Treatment 3 had the highest cost of feeds per unit body weight which is 224.11 pesos followed by Treatmem4 with 129.71 pesos, Treatment 1 with 118.80 pesos and Treatment 2 with 0 peso
