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.
The higher birthweight of TN Duroc offspring is a key element of their Early Phase Vitality. The result is a quick, problem-free start, efficient production, better litter uniformity, uninterrupted growth, and improved quality. An added bonus is the reduced labour required during the farrowing, nursery, and finishing phases.
TN Duroc piglets are known for their exceptional pre-weaning survival rates, a result of Topigs Norsvin’s breeding program. This not only results in more piglets weaned but leads to minimal assistance required in the farrowing phase, reducing the overall workload. Furthermore, their strong start sets the foundation for a highly productive nursery and finishing phase with fewer challenges.
Early Phase Vitality emphasizes the critical importance of colostrum intake, contributing to more efficient management. With this element of Early Phase Vitality of TN Duroc piglets producers can achieve more efficient operations, healthier animals, and improved production outcomes.
Early Phase Vitality translates to a low occurrence of congenital defects in TN Duroc offspring. Less congenital defects means more robust, healthy pigs, requiring less resources per animal, ensuring uniformity and high performance in the finishing phase.
