The pigs should keep down development off the end of the runway.

Ever been close to a manure lagoon?


No, but I camped next to a chicken ranch once at Abbotsford, BC.
Hardly noticed it in the evening, but next morning the wind had
shifted - and omigawd what an awful smell!

More recently, the county raised pigs at their honor farm right next
to the airport where I was based. The wind was usually blowing the
wrong way.....

I saw one city that put their sewage treatment plant off the end of one of
the runways. At the time I thought that this might be a REALLY good way to
protect the airport from future housing, and if it aready isn't identified
as a "compatible use" with airports, it should be.
