The potato field furthest from my house had a surprise visit from some feral pigs. They messed up about 1/5th of it and I think will be back soon to do more damage. Any tips for discouraging them ?

Depending on where you are... it sounds like you have a lot of ham and bacon ready to add to the freezer...
