TN Duroc
Strong Start
Robust birth weights and improved overall health ensures that they begin their lives in the best possible way, paving the path for consistent growth and easier handling throughout their development.
A Strong Start
is achieved through:
Robust Birth Weights
TN Duroc offspring have a higher birth weight, which is a key element of their Early Phase Vitality. This leads to a quick, problem-free start, resulting in efficient production, better uniformity, uninterrupted growth, and improved quality. Additionally, it reduces labor requirements not only in the farrowing pen but also in the rearing and finishing phases.
Higher Survival
TN Duroc piglets are known for their high pre-weaning survival rates, a result of Topigs Norsvin’ s breeding program, which has prioritized piglet survival since 2001. This not only leads to more piglets being weaned but also reduces the workload during the farrowing phase. Furthermore, a strong start contributes to a highly productive nursery and finishing phase with minimal issues.
Colostrum Intake
Early Phase Vitality emphasizes the critical importance of colostrum intake, contributing to more efficient management of barn employees by making it easier to care for the pigs and allowing operations to run smoothly. This efficiency contributes to a higher employee retention rate within the barn.
Lower Congenital Defects
Early Phase Vitality also translates to a low occurrence of congenital defects in TN Duroc offspring. This leads to reduced additional labor during the farrowing stage and promotes uniformity and high performance in the finishing phase. It also ensures a higher percentage of number one pigs at slaughter.
