Project Title

Improvement of Bavarian piglet production with sustainable and animal welfare oriented selection in closed-herd farms

Project description

Bavaria is characterized by a high proportion of closed-herd piglet producers, who so far only benefit from genetic progress via the boar side. The aim of the project is to enable breeding progress on the sow side with the help of genomic selection. Additionally the occurrence of hereditary defects shall be reduced and the genetic resistance to certain production diseases shall be increased. For this purpose the farms genotype the relevant sows and carry out genomic mating planning. As a result of this procedure genetic defects shall be reduced, the use of resources improved and the dependence of Bavarian farmers to the breeding decisions of international concerns shall decreased.
