Why did balboa fail raising and selling pigs?

Vasco Núñez de Balboa struggled with raising and selling pigs primarily due to the harsh environmental conditions in Panama, which made it difficult for livestock to thrive. Additionally, the local indigenous populations did not have a demand for pigs, limiting his market. Balboa's focus on exploring and seeking wealth in gold and other resources also detracted from his efforts in livestock farming. Ultimately, his ventures in pig farming were overshadowed by his more ambitious pursuits.
