TN70 sows proved to have a significant economic advantage over the competition when evaluating the performance from birth to market. Brad Heron, Production Director of the Pork Division at Cherkizovo Group: "The efficiency of our production is improved by increased reproductive performance of the sows as well as by better wean to market performance with a lower cost of gain. Using the TN70 therefore results in more profit per kg than the competition."
Maxim Zudin, General Director of the Agro Division of Cherkizovo Group states: "The results clearly demonstrate the economic benefits of Topigs Norsvin genetics for us. These results, in combination with the knowledge available and the desire to establish long-term relationships, make Topigs Norsvin the perfect partner for us. The process of depopulating and repopulating the multiplication system to a full TN70 program will allow us to reach the maximum genetic potential".
