Team testimonial

My Adénia sows are easy to handle and the piglets are homogeneous from birth.

“When we restocked the farm in 2008, we opted for a nucleus of sanitized Large-White Axiom pigs. Since then, the number of weaners has risen steadily, fertility is very good and the pigs are homogeneous.

All our employees are dedicated to their jobs, and are above all motivated and passionate about what they do. Sanitary rigor is the order of the day, quarantine is comfortable and we apply zootechnical standards to express the full genetic potential of the Adénia x Valens pair.

Expert opinion

Charle Lavieille, EARL du Scy technician and Porvéo genetic manager

Charles LAVIEILLE, breeding technician and Porvéo genetics manager

“Renewal with the Large-White Axiom nucleus has enabled clear progress to be made on this farm, explained by the high genetic potential of the Axiom breeding stock.
Maternity results are progressing steadily without calling into question the herd’s management. GTE results are good and economic efficiency has been maintained since repopulation. The Adénia x Valens pairing provides a perfect complementarity between ease of management in maternity and homogeneity of pigs in fattening.
