PICboar 337G

PICboar 337G Terminal Boar

The Industry's Leading Growth Rate Boar

The PIC 337G is New Zealand's best selling Liquid Gene and natural serve product (PICboar 335). This boar has excellent growth rate and feed conversion ratios that can take market pigs to heavier weights in fewer days, while decreasing the cost of gain. The 337G produces high yield carcasses with an emphasis on meat quality.

This focus on growth makes the PIC 337G ideal for:

Maximizing weight gain in a fixed time
Going to heavier market weights with same facility space
Faster facility turnover by reaching market weight in a shorter time

The PIC 337G uses a range of PICmarq DNA markers in conjunction with each boar's own and relatives' off test performance data to increase the accuracy with which PIC selects the best boars based upon EBV (estimated breeding value) for days to market, average daily feed intake, backfat and loin depth.
