Suisag
The sow of the future. The number 1 when it comes to convenience and the weaning of piglets from the sow. These Swiss genetics have proven to be a fierce competitor for today’s market leaders.
7 reasons you should choose a Suisag sow:
- Unseen quiet sows in the farrowing pen
- 16+ teats
- High milk yield
- 16+ live born piglets
- Strong robust sows > low mortality rate
- Excellent reproductive traits
- Carefully bred in Belgium > short lines
Breeding company An-Pigs BV has a great deal of experience with the excellent characteristics of the Suisag sow. Full of conviction about this product, they started sub-breeding. The short lines with the Andries family offer great advantages for our Belgian customers.
Danic
The restructuring of Danish breeding has resulted in 3 parties, of which DANIC is one. Where Danish genetics have always been and shall remain the champion in terms of number of piglets born alive, DANIC focuses on the rearing capacity.
Piglet survival, milk production and improved weaning for weaning more piglets. Nemegheer NV is your point of contact for DANIC genetics in Belgium. Thanks to our close co-operation with our Dutch colleagues of NEXT-Genetix, we can offer you the best sub breeders with the highest health. Correct delivery and customised guidance are our assets.
Breeding purpose
Unlike other Danish genetics, DANIC focuses strongly on improving the rearing capacity of the Danish sow. Combined with good longevity and an economical finisher.
