The PIC-Hermitage Hybrid females are renowned for their prolificacy, longevity and mothering ability.The combination of maternal genes from our Landrace and Large White populations, enhanced by heterosis when crossed, ensure that the Hybrid females are among the most productive parent sows available in the market today.
In addition to optimum prolificacy, the Hybrid females also produce uniform slaughter pigs with maximum growth, lean potential and carcass quality.
Over the years PIC-Hermitage Genetics have been used in over 100 high health restocks in Ireland alone. In addition many new herds have been established and restocks carried out across the UK, Europe, Russia, Ukraine and the USA.
