Poland Chinas
The
Poland breed has long been known for quality carcasses with a high percent
of lean, and this has been confirmed by the results of the National Barrow
Show production tested barrow contest.
Natural soundness and sturdy structure are practical traits important in pork production, and the ability of the Poland hog to adapt to nearly any environment, from pasture to total confinement will insure the breed's continuing popularity. Many producers pick Polands as the sire breed in a terminal cross because the dark color is dominated by the second breed. This way the pork producer can give the packer the color he prefers and the quality carcass he demands. Maximum hybrid vigor, structural soundness and a high percentage of lean muscle combine to make Modern Polands a practical choice for today's pork producer.
