Camborough®

Efficient. Robust. High performing.

Your advantages at a glance

Excellent balance of litter size and piglet vitality
The Camborough® delivers large litters of vigorous piglets and strong weaning performance — without increasing management demands.

Early puberty means more productive days
Early maturity allows to breed the Camborough® at an earlier age — reducing housing and feed costs per gilt and improving overall herd efficiency.

Few non-productive days, high conception rate
The Camborough® shows heat clearly and reliably — leading to high farrowing rates and fewer non-productive days.

Robust and durable
Selected for reproductive success, structure and locomotion, the Camborough® contributes to stability and longevity in the herd.

Flexible for all production systems
Camborough® fits a wide range of systems — whether piglet production, farrow-to-finish, purchasing gilts or closed herds.

Genetic Progress Driven by Innovation

PIC applies digital phenotyping and the GNX crossbred program to continuously improve the Camborough®.
Through objective, on-farm data collection and AI-powered analysis, new selection traits have been successfully implemented — including reproductive success, structural soundness, gait, and longevity.
The integration of AI-based mobility data enables more targeted selection for robust sows — supporting animal well-being and a long, productive life.

A reliable mother

Over the past 10 years, genetic progress has delivered more piglets — and healthier ones too.

  • Litter size: +3.5 piglets
  • Birth weight: +200 g
  • Piglets <900 g birth weight: -4 %points
  • Functional teats: ~70% of gilts have 16+
  • Strong milk performance supports high litter weaning weights: +39 kg
  • Low foster sow requirement & calm behaviour
  • Ideal for free farrowing and a better work experience.
