techniques

10. Overlap in data collecting and breeding work

12. Norsvin Delta
test station
– 3,000 purebred boars on-test
annually
– Test period: 30 to 120 kg
– On test:
• Feed efficiency
• Gain/ growth curves

13. Norsvin Duroc proven tremendous improvement rate, now
accelerating 20-30% with Genomic Selection
New breeding goal and technology, combined with
CT scanning, FIRE stations, meat- and fat quality
evaluation, more tested boars per year, more
intense selection will boost annual genetic
progress with 20-30%

14. Norsvin Boar Test
The main phenotyping platform and selection arena
Use of CT-skanner to record carcass- and meat quality traits and
osteochondrosis. In addition, carcass dissection to record additional meat and fat
quality traits
Landrace: 22 000 boars  tested 1800  selected 50 to sire of next generation
Duroc: 6 300 boars  tested 1700  selected 50 to sire of next generation
