Selection for sow longevity.

Journal of animal science - 1 Apr 2006

Serenius T, Stalder K J

Abstract excerpt

Sow longevity plays an important role in economically efficient piglet production because sow longevity is related to the number of piglets produced during its productive lifetime; however, selection for sow longevity is not commonly practiced in any pig breeding program. There is relatively little scientific literature concerning the genetic parameters (genetic variation and genetic correlations) or methods...
