Online Magazine Progress – Balanced Breeding by Topigs Norsvin

The winter edition of Progress, the online magazine of Topigs Norsvin is about Balanced Breeding.

Balanced Breeding has been the foundation of the Topigs Norsvin breeding program for decades and will remain so for decades to come. At Topigs Norsvin, Balanced Breeding means focusing on a wide range of breeding goal objectives that cover the interests of the animal, producer, consumer, and environment.

An animal’s biology means that selecting for a trait also impacts other characteristics. Single trait selection or selection on a few traits can be very effective in the short term but often comes with unfavorable side effects in other areas. Breeding programs must therefore consider the wider context of how animals develop.
