The factors which caused problems in swine production of Ukraine were identified. The trends in biogas production and consumption at farm enterprises in swine farming were studied. The evaluation of the production efficiency of both pork and alternative fuel – biogas – was made. A polynomial model, which describes potential of biogas production at farm enterprises in swine breeding in terms of natural gas in the years of 1990-2013 and envisages further increase of this indicator, was developed. It has been established that biogas production and consumption from swine substrates at farm enterprises will allow producing ecologically clean alternative fuel, ensuring food safety, creating new jobs, increasing business profits, reducing import fuel dependence. The research results can help solve practical problems of farm enterprises in swine production and in agrarian business in general.
