Babcock research looks for ongoing genetic improvement that ultimately means a better future for your hog operations. We concentrate on feed efficiency, pounds of pork sold, percentage of market hogs sold at full value, meat quality and net advantages per market hog: factors with the greatest impact on profitability.
Our genetic performance has improved steadily for more than 40 years because we use a diversified genetic toolkit, maximizing those traits that have the greatest impact on profitability.
