Genetics need to work on farm — not just on paper.

PIC’s 2026 annual index update makes breeding values even more precise, helping turn genetic progress into real value for sow farms and finishing systems.

This year’s update includes new and enhanced traits linked to:
lactation feed efficiency
sow body condition
meat quality
growth potential in terminal sire lines
more accurate breeding value estimates

For producers, the aim is simple: genetics that stay aligned with today’s market pressures and support performance where it matters most.
