Breeding system
Monsanto Choice Genetics has introduced a new, closed-herd, swine
breeding system that offers producers more control over herd health and
allows for quick introduction of genetic improvements.
Monsanto Choice Genetics’ Core Matriarch Pyramid breeding system
features the genetics of a single maternal Landrace line. Producers can
choose the semen of a grandparent boar. Females are artificially
inseminated on the farm, eliminating the introduction of live animals
into the herd. The system also allows for easier introduction of
genetic improvements.
