Rapid Genetic Improvement Preferred Pork

PrimegroTM Genetics AI products are sourced from boars produced by the Rivalea Genetic Improvement Program, Australia’s largest, most sophisticated pig breeding program. Rivalea is a large integrator with an intricate knowledge of the drivers of successful pork production and as a result, our focus is on reducing the costs of pork production by maximising the feed efficiency of the individual pig and the reproductive efficiency of the herd.
