genetic improvements in commercial pig farming
Recent advancements in genetic research are reshaping commercial pig farming, enhancing productivity and sustainability. Techniques like genomic selection and gene editing are enabling breeders to select for desirable traits such as growth rates, disease resistance, and meat quality. This innovative approach is not only improving economic viability but also addressing animal welfare and environmental impacts. As breeders integrate precision technologies and sustainable practices, the future of pig farming promises healthier animals and a reduced ecological footprint, redefining industry standards and practices.
