Team testimonial
A herd of sows and pigs that are easy to manage on a daily basis!
“I want fairly calm sows that are easy to handle in large groups. The Adénia meets my expectations, with uncomplicated farrowings.
I’m looking for beautiful, homogeneous piglets. For me, successful weaning
The AXIOM Pietrain enables me to achieve good classifications and fattening results, without any particular difficulty. Once weaned, they’re easy to rear. That’s what I’m looking for.
Benjamin Lair, manager of SARL La Morissais (50)

Expert opinion
Marion CAVRET, AXIOM Technical Sales Representative
“Benjamin’s farm was depopulated-repopulated in 2012, with the aim of improving technical-economic performance, which was tending to stagnate. Today, this depopulation enables him to express the potential of the Adénia x Piétrain Axiom duo, with an average of 14.4 weanlings, and an overall CI of 2.65. Even so, Benjamin is keen to preserve his family life: he arrives at 8 am and wants to leave the farm by 6:30 pm at the latest. This is made possible by a well-organized work schedule, and a herd of sows and porkers that are easy to manage on a daily basis.
